Wow, Jake is young. Lol, I can't believe I didn't realize there was a fifth chapter *hits self on head* I love the way you're developing the relationship between Jake and Clarissa...she's a headstrong young woman, and he's...mysterious =) Oh, and by the way, I updated my story The Journal of Iona Cullioni...read it if you like, but please update soon!

First of all, this is a GREAT premise. I love the idea of a girl embarking on a journey to find her parents' muderers. I never would have believed I'd have liked a western, but hey, this is really interesting. Why isn't in this in the Western section, though? Well, that doesn't matter...I like it anyway. Jake seems like a fun character...wonder what'll happen between Clarissa and him, since this is partially romance (I'm a sucker for historical romances). Well, thanks so much for reviewing The Journal of Iona Cullioni...glad you liked it, and I hope you keep reading it, because I'm going to keep up with this story...so update soon!

What's Jake hiding?
* Jake is short for Jacqueline
* Jake is one of her parents' killers
* Jake killed someone, that's why he's out here in the west and knows Henrico.
* Jake is a pathological liar and he's really an outlaw.
Am I close? At all!?!

Wow, it's like I'm there and I'm seeing all of it. I love the way you're describing this and I definitley love the way you draw the scenery with the weather, and the people and whatnot. This is great, really! I can't wait for the next chapter. Jake Billings does sound interesting and I have a feeling something is going to come out of this...something other than solving the case. I love this. I really mean it, your style is quite remarkable.
Well, take care and good luck with your next chapter.
Love always,

Whoo hoo! She's off!
I laughed when I read the name Jack Daniels - and then at the end of this chapter where you explained that you didn't mean to write the pun!
It's hard enough in this day and age to find a murderer in a cold-case. I hope she has better luck!!

YAY! Great chapter. Very interesting. Well I pretty much knew she'd do that but I expected the men to offer to go with her or even if she declined her they'd go anyway. Oh, well, it's still pretty darn interesting. I can't wait for the next chapter and I still can't believe how well you've got down the Western touch to it. I LOVE IT!
Well it's pretty late, because I checked my e-mail so late *shakes fist at homework* So I'm going to have to keep this short. Great chapter, and I probably should stop writing...NOW!

No, this was a good chapter. I liked it. It's slowly easing the reader into the story. Have you ever read the Little House on the Priairie Books? Well I used to read them, one actually and I've re-read it many times after that. Well the point of me telling you this actually was: Whenever I used to read those books I would literally be in a different world, lost in the writing and find myself standing amongst the characters. Now you would think that that would depend on the reader's imagination but that's only half of it. I wouldn't be able to picture it if it wasn't written so descriptivley and well. And that's where this comes into your story, so far, with your first chapter and this, I have found myself lost in Clarissa's world, strung among the characters as they bantered about the usual. This is, I can tell, going to be a really good story. Just the way you've written it out is well done. The plot line, based pretty much on a necklace, normally wouldn't be something so assurable for a plot line but you're making it work. Seriously, I've read a story by an amateur about some jade necklace but the writer didn't do it much justice, and I know that your story isn't solely on a necklace but about family ties, the country life, and so much more. Your writing well suits this genre and I, for the life of me, can't figure out why.
Jack Daniels? Been looking into your dad's liquor cabinet have we? THE famous whisky! Aside from Black Label and Royal Crown and such. Good name though, considering it was named after a Southern Gentleman!
Hehe, okay, enough history about liquor and alcohol, no I don't drink, I just happen to know a lot thanks to the mature family!
Okay, Long enough review, and most of it is complimenting what happens to be a really good story with great potential. I can hardly wait for the next chapter. Can't wait to see what happens. It's like I'm there, still stuck in the country, after I've read this chapter but the characters are all frozen, some moved on, and they all await your next motion.
Take care, and do continue writing, I happen to admire your works.
Love always,

This is pretty good. It's got a promising plot line and the potential to be a REALLY interesting story. Um, I want to say thanks for adding me to your fave author's list and fave storie's list. I really appreciate it, though I'm not here just because of that, that' would just be MEAN! No this is really a good story with a really promising line to it. The only question, I guess I have, would be who is she living with now? Or does she live by herself. And aside from a few spelling mistakes here and there, who doesn't make a few every now and then right? This story is really good and I am anxiously awaiting the next chapter so keep up the good work!
Good Luck!
Love always,

This is an interesting start. I think there were a few terms you could have replaced because it sounded like mordern vocabulary, but other than that, it was good. I have to admit, this is one of the first western's I've read so far. I hope you update soon!
