Log innice update...waiting for dennis to say something....
dreamweaver, Thank you! ( ͡ᵔ ͜ʖ ͡ᵔ )❤️
He'll just need to gather his thoughts, his mouth is already open, which is useful for talking )))
It becomes too interesting already...i don't want to have expectations on what's going to happen. i just want to keep my thrill...haha.
dreamweaver, (⌒‿⌒) ❤️
Interesting what they will do there. For a girls-only party.
I’m waiting for more and for Dennis to come home :)
Thank you, Natalia, and have a nice weekend!
Just Me, Let’s wait one more chapter. It will be in the next. :)
Thank you very much! ❤️
Have a great week!
(✿´‿`)
Hey everything alright?? You don't usually take this long to update new chapters
Наталия Арчер, ?...thanks for the update...good luck...i think the brother is none other than Den
I hope the daughter of her mother’s friend is not Chloe. :)
Just Me, It would be awful )))
Let’s see. )
Thank you! ❤️
It's surprising Den hasn't come looking for her...waiting for more...keep it up
Nuriya Abuu, He can’t actually. No phone number, no address, Alice is new to the city, no connections at all. We will know what he was doing all these days. :)
I’m planning a chapter from his POV.
Thank you, Nuriya! ❤️
Hi! Waiting for an update here.
How’s Alice doing? :)
Thank you!
Just Me, Hello! Thank you for waiting! ))
I'm posting it right now.
(ɔ◔‿◔)ɔ ♥
It's interesting!! Love it! Keep writing dear...!!
Martha Martin, Thank you very much! ❤️
I can't remember the last time I read this genre and this style of narrative. I enjoyed it although I did get a bit confused in the sudden shift of tense..."he left me speechless " and I wondered if the shift was deliberate. I believe overtly-noir themes and genres that seem to be the favourite of today are overrated simply because it has become a cliche now. I think our youth especially and even us, we need more writers and more stories that explore the innocence of our youth, to help bring back that innocence to our otherwise overly exposed young ones...and this book is, so far, doing just that. The narrative is simple yet descriptive, so beautifully made and not once did I feel or realise that English isn't the author's mother tongue. I look forward to more.
Nagwa Malik author The Mist series and A Novel
Nagwa Malik, Hello, Nagwa! Thank you for bringing my attention to this, I've already fixed it. :-)
My first book, which is in Russian, was written in the past tense. The beginning of this book, written in the present tense, was the most complicated in my pursuit to stay in the same tense. ))) I hope it didn't add tension to the story )))
Thank you for your kind words. It's an honor that you like my book! ❤️
Hahaha unfortunately she wasn't found by either boys bt Alice iz up for a lecture from her parents....keep it up Natalia you got grt plot of stry..?❤️
Наталия Арчер, Hahahaha yh she's probably in hot soup
Woah lyk srsly Ronald...he will do anything to drift them apart and seems he succeeded bt i just hope things will change. I don't think Alice did right hiding from Den she might face other Ronalds...nyc plot ??
Nuriya Abuu, Yes, that would be a problem if Ronald found her. Though he was not that much interested. He did what he wanted. Let's see how they can repair what was broken. :-)
Thank you, Nuriya!
(ɔ◔‿◔)ɔ ♥
I bet Ronald is lying about Den... He just wants to have his way with Alice
Loata Wara Takala, Yes it will be too cruel
My Dear Author...
Where is truth? Where is false? Who is the best actor??? Alas Alice will suffer anyway. How can she trust???
Thanks)))
Thank you, Svetlana, for your comment!
Alice is in a problem now, for sure. I can just assure you that the truth will be found. Evil will be punished. ))
Wow i knew ronald was upto something...am waiting to see the knight in shining armour come save his damsel in distress ??... good work Natalia have a good weekend and stay safe ?
Nuriya Abuu, Thank you very much, Nuriya! :)
Have a great week and take care!
❤️❤️❤️

Oh... i have to wait for 2 days to read more...

Thanks)))
Светлана Михалева, Thank you, Svetlana, for your willingness to help! ))
Such an umbrella is a very useful thing in Vancouver for many reasons. :)
Oh no! I hope someone comes to her rescue soon...
Loata Wara Takala, Sure, I won't let anyone harm Alice ... beyond repair. ))
Thank you, Loata!

Can’t wait to see what Den will get. Truth or Dare? Thank you!
Just Me, Oh, yeah! It will be very interesting. :)
I hope he’ll choose Dare. Let girls choose the Truth only. )))
Thank you! ❤️
hey, the story is so cute with relatable characters. why did I fall in love with Den all of a sudden like alice..*sob* *sob* .. Anyways.. Also the comparisons between the characters and movie characters, made me smile and laugh from time to time. You way of describing the moving story is great. I really felt like it's christmas in summer. You did a great job Author.. (^^)(^^)(^^)(^^)(^^)(^^)
Thank you very much, Moumita!
I'm happy that you like my main character. Den's really nice. )
I have to fall in love with him myself, though I won't make Alice be jealous of me, I hope. ))
Thank you for reading! ❤️
Hello))
I do't feel comfortable around all of people inside this big house. I was reading a text but my brain was creaming "Run Alice, Run as fast you can!" Anyway time is running and they have to go.
Thanks ❤
Светлана Михалева, Thank you, Svetlana! :)
Very soon we'll find out about the forebodings.
I wish they were unjustified... (suspense))
❤️
Hey! I read the Chapters and I would like to say that you are an amazing writer and your book is extremely relatable to this new teen generation. The description, the grammar and the way Characters talking to each other absolutely felt original. This book can give a good insight of a life of cozy teenage girl who loves holiday season, friends and family gatherings. Then, suddenly her life changes when she had to move out of her place to a different country. Just like any other movies and novels this MC eventually gets a hot and dashing reason to like her new place too. Den is absolutely adorable and his intrusive intentions for Alice is so cute. I absolutely love them and the book. Keep it up Author. >_
Riya Sarkar, Thank you, Riya! ❤️
I'm very grateful for your words and I'm truly happy that you like my book so far (I hope you will like it till the words "The end"))).
I will be happy to know what you think about the story on your reading journey! :-)
Thank you!
i always like your footnotes...to shed some light in the story's chapter. you have done quiet good on research.
dreamweaver, Thank you!
(✿◠‿◠) ❤️
I like the way Alice stood up for herself. What a girl! ☺️
Just Me, Yes, she can be a tough girl. ))
Thank you for commenting! ❤️
I always love a cute romance and a holiday romance is even better. This could be a Netflix Christmas movie one day :) The characters are classic, of course. We have the sweet girl who loves Christmas and the adorable guy who's sure to love her. Of course, you need a mean girl in that situation, so enter Chloe. The descriptions are good and often creative. I get cold just reading it.
The main issue I'd say is the dialogue isn't really believable. Chloe is immediately to loud and open about her problem with the girl. I'd suggest making that more subtle. Also, the guy giving the description of the girl just felt weird. No guy I've met would use those descriptions unless he was writing bad poetry. That being said, you could have him write her a terrible poem and make it a joke if you really want to include that description. However, after he gives the description, we don't need her long, detailed agreement. One line to say it was an accurate description would be sufficient.
Apart from that, I'd say you're doing well and I look forward to seeing how the romance blooms between Den and Alice :)
Jessica Wright, Thank you, Jessica, for your review! That's very helpful to see another perspective!
Thus I have an idea to find a male reader whom I could ask about Den's reactions. )))
Thank you very much for the kind words! ❤️
(ɔ◔‿◔)ɔ ♥
Grt piece of writing... i love this book....can't wait to read more of your amaizing work ? Stay safe
Наталия Арчер, ??
Ronald is plotting something, too sly
Just Me, Thank you very much for the reward! ❤️
It's an honor for me!
I appreciate your comments and your attention to the book.
Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️
PS Yeah, Ronald certainly wants something )) Let's see it soon. :-)
I’m on coffee chapters. Now I want a cup of coffee too. Never tried Mexican Mocha. I will try.
Just Me, Absolutely agree with you!
Thanks! (｡◕‿◕｡)❤️
In your face Chloe
Loata Wara Takala, (ˆ‿ˆԅ)❤️
Ronald sounds like an odd or bad boy
Loata Wara Takala, He definitely has this vibe. Probably, he’s not that bad. Everything has its reason. :)
Thank you very much, Loata, for reading and your comments! ❤️
Hi))))
Den did it!!!! Alice's heart was beating as crazy when he said "you are mine!"
Do't know why i do't like Den's friend.
Thanks)))
Светлана Михалева, We are coming to the climax. Ronald will be very useful for me. :)
Thank you, Svetlana, for reading! ≧◠‿◠≦ ❤
I'm so behind, but not worried, I'll catch up. I just started the story and I'm enjoying it. It's very funny and I would like to read further and will catch up... :-)
Tlalane Manciya, Thank you, Tlalane! ❤️
There should not be pressure, when you are reading)). Take your time. (｡◕‿◕｡)❤️
So, I have read few chapters and I must say this story gives a feel good vibe which is rare considering most of the popular stories I have read. I was smiling all the way through the chapters. Alice is cute and Den too :p At last I would love to say that this story seems somewhat real, like the incidents may happen somewhere. I will for sure read the entire story and see how it turns. Keep Writing dear, you write great
Наталия Арчер, i will be waiting for the twist :))
I will be reading this story soon, so much positive feedback. Can't wait... You will be hearing from me soon. Tx
Tlalane Manciya, Thank you very much! ❤️
i see you are a harry potter nerd ;)
Наталия Арчер, and that's a great taste ;)
Rudolph... oops :D
Payal Mandal, The first name of the book was "Hello Rudolph!" )))
Thank you for reading, Payal! ❤(ˆ‿ˆԅ)
Hello))))
Many many emotions!!! I like how Den is taking care of Alice in that party, his reactions about risks with unknown people and unknown drinks. His talk by phone with Mr.Dad is perfect! He is responsible young man it is good for me.
Thanks a lot i'm Meat Loaf's fan... well special that song!!!
See u soon))))
Thank you, Svetlana! :-)
I'm so glad that you like Den. I hope he won't disappoint you. )
I love the song as well. Though the name of the group I found out only now, especially for the chapter. Need to listen to other songs by them. :-)
Thank you!
Enjoying the story so far
Thank you very much, Loata! I hope you will be enjoying it till “The end”. And a little further for a pleasant aftertaste. :)
I’ll try to do my best! :)
Thank you! ❤️
interesting story, love the humor as well
Thank you very much, Angel, for reading and for the kind words! ❤️
This was a fun read! I like that Alice blows Chloe off instead of sinking to her level. It keeps with the lighthearted atmosphere of the story! The quintessential coffee shop date is a nice addition! Overall the story is a warm, engaging brew (just like Christmas)! Reminds me of those great 90s rom-coms. Good writing and keep at it!
LadyoftheTrashPond, Thank you very much for the kind words! Thank you for reading my story and sharing your thoughts about it.
(ɔ◔‿◔)ɔ ❤️
You've made me happy. Thank you!
❤️❤️❤️
Hello )))
How can u understand a person better? Many ways to do it..... to walk with him, to share your sweet memories about holidays, to make fun, to describe your school and friends.
So our teenagers are doing well))))
Thanks))))
Светлана Михалева, We will know about his friends very soon. Let's check if the saying "Tell me who your friends are, I’ll tell you who you are" is true. :)
Thank you, Svetlana! (✿◠‿◠)
Ch 4: Ooh so looks like Alice and Den are acting as the "fake girlfriend-boyfriend" which I like this trope, although they already feel very genuine together in such a short amount of time so it'll only be a matter of time before it becomes real, right? :) Oh no, so Alice unfortunately gets targeted by Chloe, Den's ex on sight. >:( Alice's imaginary conversation of what Den and Chloe were discussing from afar made me laugh with Chloe putting the PlayStation into the washing machine and them disagreeing on the scent of the softener. I love Alice's positive attitude and humour in these circumstances and she didn't let Chloe's words ruin her day. :)
noveltealover, Yeah, Den is too good to be let go of easily. We will know what was her problem, why she lost Den and surely will meet her again. :)
I need to hope that Alice will save her day once more, but first, we need to get what is on Chloe's mind. ))
Hii, I'm back again! Ooh I love your new book cover! It even looks like Alice is wearing a winter coat with the snowflakes love the way her hair looks like it's being blown by the wind. Fitting for the time your story is set during winter. :) I just finished Ch 5 (which I'll share my thoughts separately in other comments since there's a word limit unfortunately hahah). I really needed something sweet and fluffy to read this weekend and Alice in Mapleland was perfect for it. ^_^ Reading your story always fills me with warm, fuzzy feelings like a mug of hot cocoa on a cold winter day.
noveltealover, Your comment has the same power on me (warm, fuzzy feelings)), thank you SO MUCH! I reread your comments and they feel my heart with utter joy. ❤️❤️❤️
I like the cover too). I decided there should be brightness in colors to match the main character. ))
Thank you! ❤️
Hullo! I just finished the end of Ch 3. Alice and Den's interactions are too cute. They're literally the cute in the 'meet-cute' hehe. It's neat to see popular references as well like HP (proud Hufflepuff here ahah) in their conversations. The story is very sweet so far and it just makes me grin from ear-to-ear as Alice and Den get to know each other while they're walking around in the forest. Oh, just one thing I noticed so far in Ch 2 if you don't mind me mentioning, but I saw that Alice's thoughts were written with double quotations instead of italics or single quotation marks. At first I thought she was talking out loud from this line till I re-read it: ["Ok," I think to myself. "Let's get to know..."] I'm not sure if in later chapters, thoughts are expressed in this format but just wanted to bring it up in case it hasn't been mentioned before. Anyway, I needed something fun and light-hearted to read so thank you for sharing your story with us! I plan to catch up to your most recent update some time later this week. Till then~ (❁´◡`❁)
noveltealover, Thank you very much!
I changed the inner speech for italics, it really looks better now.
It's a little strange when I write in the first person singular, to mark the parts she thinks, where every author's line is hers )))
But everyone needs to talk to him\herself from time to time, right? ))
Ch 5: Aww, Alice & Den's conversation about Christmas in Tahiti was cute. Hanging flip-flops instead of stockings and decorating with seashells instead of ornaments sounds equally as fun and festive for the Christmas spirit. :3 Den's group of friends seem like a funny bunch! Especially Eric who is Den's "best friend" xD At first I thought him helpful trying to mention that Alice and Den had met online about a month ago but yikes, that was when Den was with Chloe so the help he was trying to give had less of an impact. But it's the thought that counts, right? xD I'm also looking forward to Alice hopefully getting to know Den's friends better and become their friends too. I also wonder what the name QV stands for like Alice haha. Can't wait to read about Alice & Den's coffee break/date later ^_^
Hello ❤
It was so sweet chapter with strong coffee's smell. I am always getting lost in cafe i want to try all of the flavors in menu but prefer capuchino. I understood Den very well)))
Thanks)))
P.s., Hope you will fine the best job for you. Good luck ❤
Thank you very much, Svetlana! ❤️
I'm so grateful to you that you write the feelings after reading a chapter. It's unbelievably precious! Thank you very-very much! ❤️❤️❤️
I wait for your comments like...like the day when I wake up well-rested))) Just want to describe the intensity of my anticipation of your feedback. ))
Your words inspire me. Thank you!
( ͡^ ͜ʖ ͡^)❤️
I love how this story is so light and cute. The festive time of christmess ,I could smell it.I have just read 3 chapters yet and the boook is in my lobrary now. it perfectly described those googly feelinds of a teenage girl and the meet cute was simple yet not a cliche. i'll continue reading it whenever i need to relax. it seems like a book that can cheer you up after a long hectic day.
Hina Rubab, Thank you very much, Hina, for the kind words! You’ve made me happy with your comment. \ (•◡•) /
I hope you will like the story till the final words: “The end”. ))
Thank you! ❤️
