What a wonderful role model Alex, the heroine in SINGLE-HANDED, is! I wish that I had had the opportunity to read a book like this when I was young, but unfortunately there were none 40 years ago. Tommy is positively scrumptious; he has enough confidence in his own masculinity not to be threatened by Alex's strength and yet he is free of arrogance. For a short story, the characters' personalities are well-developed, clearly defined, and three-dimensional and the imagery is graphic and realistic. The writing style was smooth and flowing and the editing was very well done. Overall, I enjoyed reading this book very much and I definitely recommend it to readers of all ages who want to read a sweet short story.
