Nice way to start this story. It's so sweet and sad a shed a few tears.

How old is Nick? And that "Dirty Sin" that Rock did, was it "IT" or just kissing?

i luv this story! totally luv the characters, especialy Nick! she's my type of girl (as a friend)! i can't wait to read the sequel. the ending was pretty good it wasn't like how some authors end their story. with an epilogue n that was unsatisfying.

heart ya

Hey there,
just wanted to let you know that I'm really enjoying your story so far. I've been combing this site for hours trying to find a good romance to read and none of them have appealed to me until this one. It's so nice to read a story that's not about some silly high school love between shallow, boring characters. This story already seems to have a lot of heart. I love the characters. Nick is an awesome girl, filled with personality. I look forward to the romance but to me, romance only means something if it's between strongly developed characters. Your story is very promising! I'm off to read more!

omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg that is the cutest story i have ever read and i do hope that you um... i don't really know what to hope for! i guess i am just hoping you dont stop writing!

The prologue was very good as prologues go but I don’t think it was appropriate for Teresa to smile at him when she came out of the room to tell him that his wife was basically dying. Also, I love the fact that Jacob was so in love with his wife and that’s all he was able to focus on while she gives birth, I would have liked to see more flash backs with Jacob and his wife considering its her last chapter and he is so in love with her. So, it is a very good story so far but some more detail wouldn’t hurt.

that was such a beautiful beggining to story. and i am glad you have gone with a story that isnt shallow and they fall in love early, because when i read those stories they get kinda boring after that part... but the last paragragh was so cute and gourgeus(?) and and and um well i would tell you to keep writting but i think the story is complete but i love the first chappie now i will shut up and read more!

Hey! Thanks for bringing this story to fictionpress. I swear, by the time Rock confessed before Tate did, I nearly thought there'd be no romance in sight. Wrong was I, entirely.

Great story, 'n was a pleasure to read.

I seriously think this is one of my favorite stories I have ever read, including the ones not on fictionpress. You have an excellent talent for writing and you seriously need to get this published. You could even put it into a movie, because I pictured it like that as I was reading through it. Is there going to be one called New Hope Ranch?

excellent work! could include more romance though

Great story. I really loved the plot, characters and especialy the way people were talking, it just semed to 'fit the atosphere'. :) The ending was PERFECT!

I hopee you write more one's like this!

:D

great story!! i thought the ending was a bit weak but other than that the chapters were well worded and long enough for a reader to keep intrest in the story.

This story was wonderful. The only problem is all of the errors. You need someone to proof read. Also it makes you jump from 2 different sites to finish the story. I almost didn't finish it. I got tired of hunting it down to finish reading it.

I have to say that the only reason that i bothered to finish the book was because i never leave a book unfinished. It was highly unrealistic, and i have to admit a tad boring...while the effort taken to develop characterization is appreciated, the story itself held little substance, no emotion to speak off. Too much emphasis was placed on making the characters come alive with too little focus on developing a greater relationship between the two protagonists...so much so that their love came across as hollow and brittle.

I totally love this story. I just finshed reading it and i found it awesome. At the beginning of the story i found Tate's character a bit odd but then as the story progressed, i cam to understand him. The way you make your charcters progress throughout the story withing their relationships with each other is really amazing and well done. I can't wait to read New Hop Ranch and your other stories. This was totally brilliant.
