Your beautiful writing style is one thing, but we feel a smart author devoted to her craft. Good job.

Very nice story. I hope you can do a sequel, I would like very much to see what happens. With a little tweeking a screenplay sounds good.
You had me hooked from the start. A great tale I hope there is more to come on this. I care about the characters and what will happen, good writing in my book.
Thanks everyone for the comments and favorites! There MAY be a second chapter in the works for Samuel and Justine : )

Unlike the previous poster, I thought the implied happily ever after was enough. I wished I understood more of the French in the story, but not knowing word-for-word was kind of sexy too. Great job!
Very nicely done, good character development and dialog, while the sex was an integral part of the story line instead of being "the story". I will join those who would like to see a continuation of the story. The road after the asshole husband left will be a bit bumpy and the both of them will have obligations and businesses to run.
Five stars.
Please give translations for us lesser mortals who don't know other languages, took a lot away from the story for me.
Dear Anon,
You didn't miss anything. Everything in French was restated in English as part of the text, except défonce-moi, which is a command: fuck me! ;-)
Being from Canada I always like finding stories that take place up here. Very nice!
Beth was a funny character would be fun to see that one if you ever get there, maybe even have it take place several years down the road so we see where these two love birds are.
Very nice job, keep it up!
Another vote for a second installment . I want to find out what happens when she sells her place, sends her ex to jail, and moves back to be with Sam and Martha PLEASE
Ellie,
I don't think you need to worry about your feminine voice! This is lovely, lovely writing. Your dialogue is very good indeed, et le francais est parfait.

eight great pages of story build up and you gave up on the ending! What happened? Also, there's a lot more of the story to be told. What happened back home in BC, how did she get rid of Gordon, did Sam come out to help her?
I may be late to the party but it seems that story is finished much to my disappointment. You hinted at a second chapter in 2015 but it hasn't happened unfortunately. I would really love to see a second chapter but I don't think it will happen. Gentili@charter.net
...finish it up with a follow-up. She sells, Gordon gets his comeuppance -- and none of the money -- in court, and she moves east to buy Mrs. Dupris's place and they end up with wedding bells in the big Victorian. 5*
Absolutely one of the best. I love Quebec, even though I live in the USA. This story makes me want to return there as soon as I am able. You have captured the friendly welcoming charm of the people who live there.
S'il vous plaît continuez à écrire des histoires plus magnifiques
I feel the story requires an ending. Foreign words in a story are very distracting and add nothing.
