“Loved reading the reviews. Was on an all nighter again last night with your book.”

“I just wanted to say how much I feel your pain after reading your book. I feel stunned, like I had my heart ripped out of my chest. I am still trying to process everything that I read. I wish there was something I could do to comfort you.”

“I am still recovering, I wish I wasn’t so empathetic, sometimes. It is hard not to feel what you experienced. Plus, you are very gifted writer, I was drawn right into your house and seemed to watch, like a fly on the wall, as it all transpired. The trauma and heartbreak was very emotional, too. The book stands as a testament to the man and your once-in-a-lifetime love. Thank you for showing me how to treat a woman and be a good husband. I learned a lot and it really did have a positive effect on me and my gal has noticed a difference as well. I sent it to her to read. I told her it was important for us to be on the same page, and I wanted her to see how a good woman treats her man, too. It is a good marriage primer.”

“I was thinking there was some special reason and believe now that I am CHOSEN to help you spread the word about God and this beautifully written testament.
I understand completely why Jim was on his knees so quickly. You are every man’s dream, as I know you were for Jim as well.”

4:59 PM
“I needed to know how to treat a woman, a wife especially, I needed to have a mentor, a Cowboy Knight, and Jim was that mentor for me. All things are God’s design, even those things we don’t understand, especially those things that cause us so much pain. You and Jim are both actively fulfilling a purpose, together. Your time together will live as a testament for others, for eternity. How ’bout that? How many couples can say that?”

5:20 PM
“You will touch and help so many with the book, Jim and your creation. Just like he advised you in advance, he knew, or sensed anyway.”

6:08 PM
“I do “get” Jim; role model, teacher, godly, sensitive and a wonderful heart that loved deeply.”

“…a Knight, like Jim can dub another a Knight, as I believe he did me in spirit, after reading your book!”
