I guess the brother is wrong.
ReplyDeleteIt's Sue from my author blog
High school isn't the best measurement of a person's character, sometimes. :)
ReplyDeleteA man with a strong mind shall get what he wants :-)
ReplyDeleteSounds like his brother thinks he's a glutton for punishment. I love that he's trying to be practical and protective at the same time that he's basically calling him an idiot. LOL
ReplyDeleteI like that his family worries about him....but also good that he's strong enough to know his own mind! Excellent excerpt...
ReplyDeleteIf she treated him that badly, you can't blame the family for being concerned. But hopefully she's changed.
ReplyDeleteA brother who cares. You can see his point, but I'm hoping his worries are for nothing. :)
ReplyDeleteThis is one of the things that I liked best about this book, Elaine. It's real. Relationships aren't glossed over in it. I really liked that his family didn't like her. I grew up on a farm, in a farming community, and I know farmers can be, as my mom used to say, "reverse snobs". My dad's mom who was a farmer all of her life, never accepted my mom who came from a tiny company town. Great 8! :-) Congrats on your "True Gem" designation!
ReplyDeleteBobby's got a point but people can change. We'll see what happens.
