4 fab entries.
Sandra: a mind tortured by contemplation of an almost-certain affair and a child on the way that may not be his own. But which betrayal warrants the biggest shiver? What a deliciously twisted tale.
Seagreen: what an terrible tale – but writing as sharp as February frost. It isn’t the weather that makes the reader shiver, but an icy heart.
Squidge: and a bit of fun it certainly is! Is it something you’ve actually done?
Janette: a different shiver. Sometimes things can come back to life in the cold of February. Loved this story. Snow and tenderness.
Once again I can’t choose, so I go for the one that gave me a shiver for the longest (even though it may actually be because I’ve just had my Covid jab). Well done Janette.

Thank you, Ath, for the prompt, and for the nice comments. I’ll go and put my thinking cap on now.
