@Itscaitsyeah. Thank you very much for adding my story Risking All for Love to your reading list.
The story is set in Liberia (West Africa) where I once served as a Peace Corps teacher. So the story has authenticity.
If you happen to live in Aberdeen, Maryland, you are not far from Denny's Restaurant in Perryville.
That's where I set my short story The Men's Room Messages.
All of my stories contain surprises.
Enjoy.
