Thank you for your wonderful comment on my story, 'Painting Love'
Your words made me really happy and I also appreciated the critique.
So the answer to your first question: This prologue should be in present tense. After I read your comment, I checked through it again, but couldn't find any mistakes for that matter. The only times when I used past tense was when "Jamie" talked about the things that happened in the past. If I still got it wrong, could you please tell me where my mistakes are?
As for question number two: I thought about that as well, since the ocean is not nearly as gentle as I "made" it. And you're absolutely right about love being "stormy" as well, but Jamie basically only sees the gentle Luke, she doesn't see his rough side. Or rather, she can't. That's why I didn't add it in the prologue. I'll most likely add your suggestion later though, when the story starts unfolding.
I believe I don't have to say much about number three. Four words are enough: thank you so much.
And I'm glad you're still interested even though it's usually not something you'd read. :)
