*Reading* THE STORY

Connie is hoping to meet a man and start a family, but she gets a little help from her Grandma and faith.

*Smile* WHAT I LIKED

The story had a nice flow to it. Once I started, I didn't want to stop. I wanted to find out if Connie was going to have a happy ending. I'm a sucker for happy ending.

*Star* POV NARRATION/TENSE

This is told in the third person omniscient from Connie's perspective. Good job with narration. Past tense is used appropriately.

*Star* DIALOGUE

There's a good blend of dialogue and narration. I would suggest an edit for dialogue tags. Use only "he said" or "she replied" in tags to identify the speaker only, if you have to. Put action in a seperate sentence. Put the action first, then the dialogue.

FOR EXAMPLE, AS WRITTEN: "I apologize for bursting in on you, Miss," he said with an awkward, pained wrinkle in his brow, yet a gentle smile on his face. "I desperately need your help."

MY SUGGESTION: "I apologize for bursting in on you, Miss." He paused, and wrinkled his brow and wrung hands, and yet despite this, had a gentle smile on his face. "I desperately need your help."

*Star* DESCRIPTIONS

There's enough to set the scenes. I liked: "The house was warm and dry, but outside the wind howled." I could easily visualize the scene in my imagination.

*Star* SETTING

TIME: in the past
PLACE: rural setting with cabins for houses

This is something that was clarified for the reader.

*Star* CHARACTERS

Connie

Connie is a kind hearted soul and deserving of a kind-hearted family. *Thumbsup*

*Star* MECHANICS

I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes.

*Star* PARTING THOUGHTS/SUGGESTIONS

The title fits the story well and the opening engages the reader. If anything, the part where Connie talks about the evil eyes seems a bit out of place or forced? I might strike up a conversation of faith and invite Ryan to pray, especially since she's gone out of her way to dissuade his fears over her being a witch. All together, it was a very enjoyable story!
