Title: Chapter 9

[Damn, I hope this shirt don't stink.]

XD, how cute is that?! he goes from being all jealous one moment to worrying about his shirt. He's too cute. 

 I don't know who I'm rooting for to be honest since none of them have truly interacted with her. They find her physically attractive yes, but I'm thinking part of that is the allure of something new and shiny dropping into their laps. 

 Once they get to know her as a person even if she has to relearn who she is, then we shall see. Though i'll be honest and say I'm currently leaning towards DeLeon. I love me some bad boys who don't mind random violence, I won't  lie, LOL.

Title: Chapter 8

I kinda really love DeLeon, scary antisocial personality be damned. Or because of his personality.You are not pulling any punches with him and I love it. and I'm really liking the contrast between him and his younger brother and I'm assuming Dax is at least 21 if his 'friend' is at a bar.

And can I say *I*feel bad for Trixie, LMAO, I mean, forget him leaving her hot and bothered, the fact that he fell asleep!? whiskey dick or no, I would be offended, lol. And then he doesn't even care, the nerve. Although she has to know how he stays from time, but still. 

 

And Dax is absolutely adorable. 

 

I like the fact that Prince didn't sit around waiting for Kendra or, like stupidass Chase, just leave her to fend for herself because of hurt feelings since she didn't call him. I do find it interesting that he beleives in soulmates and the idea of someone having more than one type.

Title: Chapter 5

Wowwwwww, well that just made the whole lone black woman down south seem less like it might be an amusing time while she gets her memory back to the uncomfortableness that she's sure to experience by other people.

 And her attacking someone who was *hurt* and calling her names because the man who she's fucking but doesn't actually want her decided to take her to the clinic shows that she needs to be by herself. If she cared about her kids she'd marry their daddy and keep her legs shut, worthless man or not since she won't be getting any better. 

And what is up with the doctor?I wonder if his irritation is about having to treat her or the fact that the Halpern males won't leave, lol. 

Although Cathleen shows that not everyone is going to be accepting of Kendra I do find it interesting that the four males that have seen her so far, five if you count the doctor, seem to find her so attractive. 

 I'd think they would look at her more like an oddity. I went to three different highschools and I have to say that people, even non-racist people would add on 'for a white/black/asian/etc. guy/girl' if they were saying they found someone out of their race/skintone attractive. 

It did stop a bit the older we got but in a town where they actually put a burning cross on someone's lawn I'd expect one of the males to not find her attractive just because she's not what they're used too. 

 But then again, all white doesn't mean they haven't seen black people before and attractive is attractive, and someone people find the unknown more beautiful then what they're used too. 

And it says a lot about Chase that to him she wasn't up to his caliber while over here she's viewed as being gorgeous.

Title: Chapter 4

Wow, Chase is an ass. The thought of losing her throws you into a panic and what do you do instead of staying with her alone? You come up with the idea of a promise of a proposal. Yeah, because that's really going to make her want to stay with you. Dumbass. and let's not forget the fact that she's lost somewhere and you were passed out because you started the celebration early. Idiot.

And Dax, awwww, muffin, LOL. I guess throwing flowers at a girl will work sometimes, haha, although isn't he only eighteen?

I do find it interesting that they're all being so nice considering their town is so insular and she's not only black but she's an educated outsider from up North, lol. 

 Great chapter.

Title: Chapter 2

Personally I love a slow build up, the sexual tension makes the actual sexy time that much better. And this may be a bit random but do you have an account on fictionpress as well?

 Anyway, on to the actual story:

 [When he'd first come across him laying in the middle of the goddamn road with some black woman stretched out beside him and bleeding from the skull like a stuck pig, DeLeon was sure he was going to have to feed a stranger to their pigs and blackmail the living shit out of Dax the next morning.] 

 LMAOOO! What a way to introduce us to DeLeon, hahah, on one hand he's willing to dispose of someone's body to protect his brother, on the other hand he has no intention of doing it out of the goodness of his heart, haha. 

I love that you set up DeLeon as being loyal but mean in the first paragraph before the Doctor thinks it. I am also super jealous that so far we've seen everything frmo three POVs, the voices are all distinct and yet still work with the story and don't feel jarring. 

 LOL at the way they interact with each other, love it and LMAO at Pa putting on cologne and putting his teeth in, hahahaha.

You didn't even ease into the racism or anything, wow. I have to say your writing voice is flexible becasue this voice and the one before are totally different and yet they both work and show us about the characters, love it.

 

And Negro-gal? Really? Currently I'm finding this amusing because the accents are coming through loud and clear and they are so redneck but I have a feeling that once I get to know Kendra more I might not find it as amusing and Pa's 'negro-gal- comments are going to make me hella uncomfortable. 

 You also had some really good one-liners in here I have to admit.

 And I'm with Dax. Where the hell did Chase try and send her and why?

Title: Intro

Although this is a really short opening so I don't have a lot to judge yet, I have to say I am liking the voice. Although it's in third person it doesn't feel stiff.

I really, really, like this scene/line: 

 

"giggling a little to herself, she headbanged a little and pumped her fist out the window, yelling out a war-cry.

And scared the shit out of a deer."

 

It made me grin although, if she scared the deer, why would it stay standing in the road taring at her? Wouldn't it try and jump out of the way once she yelled even it had been mesmerized by her car lights?

 

Either way, really interesting opening.

Title: Chapter 5

Well all the extremely racist name calling that came out of the filthy soul of Cathleen Bronson certainly brought the reality to Kendra's situation of being down there in that small Southern town.

Cathleen is low class trash and a prostitute; her only sense of worth is based on being White and her sexual attractiveness to men. 

DeLeon is a priority catch she desires.  For Deleon of all men to respect and show appreciation of Kendra's beauty, a Black woman; this topples Cathleen's delusion of grandeur so she responds like a fearful, snarling rabid dog..... 

It will be very interesting to see how Kendra handles the racism of Cathleen and others like her as it comes to her.

Glad to have met Chase, he will develop a even deeper worry of what could have happened to his sweety Kendra.  Although, from the impression she's making on Dax and maybe grandpa too, Lol; Chase may end up having some competition.

That was funny when Dax in his frightened nervousness cast those flowers from the tin into Kendra's lap; she started laughing and I giggled a little too.

They did the right thing. Lord knows I don't want Kendra to leave Deleon behind. Plus, Prince is bi-sexual and while there is nothing wrong with that. He needs to realize that unless you're dating someone who's into the same sexual behavior as you, than it won't work.
