I didn't have a problem with Rose Mae turning to Jim -- she saw him as being the only positive relationship she had experienced, so it made sense to me. I did think finding him would be a long shot. And I have to admit, that when Rose Mae first finds those messages from her mother, I thought it was all just wishful thinking. I didn't think her search for her mother would be successful. Glad you liked it overall. I think in a year or so I'd like to read the print copy.Gwendolyn B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03306180985189176946noreply@blogger.com
