This part is definitely a "hook". It pulls the reader deeper into Anna's plight, but it also adds the context of hope with the arrival of Troy's message and revelation. Well developed plot scenario imbedded into the theme of family violence. Great job here. NO ERRORS FOUND. td

Usual stylish writing. I'm not familiar with the story but the question is a good one. If she's married, why is she thinking about this guy. Realistic situations, good flow and pace. Best wishes. ray

    She's thinking about this guy because he has been nice to her and her husband is an abuser. Thank you for your kind review.

This was a good read from beginning to end, as usual. You have described your male character as a white knight and given the reason so it is believable.

I guess I became a fan late because this story is new to me. I am very anxious for the next installment to see what happens. You can touch these characters and they speak like we would in the same circumstances. Great story.

Don't you hate those glitches, they are few but maddening when they occur.
Troy may have good intentions after all. I despise Bobby. Any man who beats someone whose only option of defense is to kill him in his sleep is a dog.
Good chapter, I didn't spot any corrections needed.

    Thank you for your kind review. I hadn't thought of having Anna kill him. It just might work. Good idea.

So very well done, Barbara. I like the way you just let the dialog take over. There was no need for anything else. Very well written (which is probably the reason EE was being so difficult). :D Nancy

Wow, Barbara, this relationship between Anna and Bobby is scary. And along comes Troy. I, like Anna, would like to know more about this knight in shining armor. Very interesting chapter.

This work has reached the exceptional level

Excellent and very realistic. I read this out of curiosity, having survived an abusive marriage. Although the abuse was largely verbal, I got in the habit of wearing turtlenecks so that when I did have to hide the bruises, no one wondered. Dialogue, both inner and outer, perfection. Intruiging; I hope she and troy can get it together! later, shy

Hi, Barbara. The two are becoming involved it seems. I wonder what his business is, maybe he works for a shelter since he said the baby would be welcomed. Need more... ray aka R. K. Alan
