Many Thanks
Even though Larry and Jenna already had their story in Valentine Hound Dog, I was moved to continue their story because a few readers felt their relationship was too clichéd Beauty and the Beast. I knew Larry had more hurdles to go over to prove to himself his full worth.
While it might have looked like Jenna didn’t care, that was actually not true. At every step of the way, she checked with him and asked his opinion. She held him in high esteem and didn’t believe he needed coddling. Of course, she was single-minded in striving for success and she lost sight that maybe Larry was being overly accommodating to her wishes.
When called to the carpet, she quickly realized that marriage was a two-way street and she urged Larry to be more assertive. I’m fully confident that Larry will continue to treat Jenna with consideration, but will make his needs known. This healthy give and take will strengthen their relationship for any challenges and trials they may encounter in life.
Thanks to everyone who helped with beta reading and critiquing of Valentine Wedding Hound. Some of you loved it and others not so. But I love how wonderful you are to tell me your mind. I value that honesty the most.
