I could see it coming too, but loved every minute of it. The traditional ghost story, converted to a sex filled adventure!
The ending surprised the hell out of me, but it was still a wonderful little story. Five star read, thanks.
It's only predictable cause we are old. It was a great story thanks.

I appreciate your efforts to improve my stories with your editing prowess. There has long been a debate between my editors on the exact syntax for short sentences of dialog. It seems that what was once proper is no longer common, so.....depending on my editor there tends to be more or less variation. That said, my editors have made a reasonable case for "He did do that." He said. Rather than "He did do that," he said." While the first is often considered proper, the second is considered common. The second also happens to be how my style had developed, so there are a LOT more of the second in any of my stories than the first.
If you wish to work as a volunteer editor i would be happy to have you on board.
This was a good story up until the end. The harshness of unexplained details uncovered in the ending ruin the story. A surprise supernatural turn such as this requires more story and plot. Without it is just an unfinished story.
loved your story Snowbound. romantic and sexy. please consider writing a part 2.
I have read over half of your stories, most are well done, many to much sex or inconclusive. But this one was elemental, with life challenging threats, love making with a beautiful Asian girl, a ghost, charming. I loved it. Keep it up, hope your write many more.
