A Promising Partnership


by Chris Maday Schmidt from the April 15, 2024 issue

Tagline: Businesswoman Lila Parker has a meeting about the future of her start-up. But when she makes a professional faux pas, it just might lead to love.

Observations: I was utterly surprised by the twist in this story! Brava, Ms. Schmidt! This plot twist was so well done that after I read the story, I re-read the story to experience everything but with the knowledge that he was her client. What a delight.

I knew from the beginning that he was the client, but I loved watching the story playout. I agree, well done.

I appreciate the kudos, Kate, thank you! And even though you were privy, Pat, I'm glad you enjoyed watching the story unfold :-)

I figured out he was the client. It was fun figuring out how she would react when she realized. They were great characters.

Fun story. 😀 I realized he was the client but not immediately.

Well, I seem to have been slow on the draw! LMAO.
