A strong plot and interesting storyline made this short story come alive for me. It is the story of a situation that could happen to any couple, which for me, made it even more poignant. Characters are fully developed and well rounded. Flow and rythm is even and well presented throughout. Ifound it very easy to step into this couple's life and see from thier eyes. Setting is beautifully described. I did have a hard time estimating thier ages however, maybe a slight mention of thier boys ages would help here?
Overall, a touching piece any romance reader would enjoy.
