Yes I would do anything as well, this is a great soap opera as well, I see so much emotion and the characters keep you wanting more as always, you keep writing, I can not wait until the next chapter.

The dialogue in this chapter is wonderful and believable. The entire read was great. There is just one opertunity I found:
When Leya opened the door, her eyes searching his. This sentence is a fragment. It should read: When Leya opened the door, her eyes searched his.

Once again, great job on this chapter and the believable character actions and dialogue.

I like that Dani is the one who came up with the solution. Content-wise, this chapter is great. How they move from sleeping with Leya to talking marriage... very interesting.

My usual comment applies here. We need to see more thoughts and emotions. If you want the reader to connect with the character and not just go like 'oh, ok, so that's what happened."

- The men agreed they couldn't allow her to marry a man she hated and feared.
Have you adequately convinced us about this? She hates and fears Carlos, but is enough reason for a bunch of men to agree that THEY CAN'T BE ALLOW HER to marry him? I don't think so. Is there reason to believe Carlos will make her do drugs, or kill her once she is in his care? If you put her life at risk, then it will make sense for these men to feel responsible.

- Steven lost.
Seems too easy. But that's just me...

Cheers
Empi

    I will recheck it. The Task Force men are fully aware of what these drug cartels are capable of without a lot of convincing, they just did a number on Geoff and kidnapped Matt and Dani's baby. Thank you for your review.

    True, but bad guys protect their loved ones, even if only for pride. Drug cartels, mafia etc., you name it; they have no mercy for enemies but they all protect their loved ones.

    In the examples you mention there's no love in the equation. Geoff's cover was blown and Matt is 'the enemy'. What reason do we have to believe that the woman he wants to marry won't be protected?

    Because in front of Mat and other's her father stated because she betrayed the family he would not offer her protection and her brother and his friends, who kidnapped the infant want the dead.

    That's her father. What about Carlos?
    Just food for thought, really; no need to respond to me specifically.

I love the story so far. Every chapter is as good as the last. There's enough suspense throughout to keep the readers attention. Excellent chapter and story.

Good luck in your writing.

This chapter is well-written and very interesting. The sexual tension is palpable between Leya and Steven. I look forward to the next chapter.

Lots of drama, details, and planning...
how to help her so she doesn't have to marry Carlos.
Now if only we hadn't decided to help her, I wouldn't be the one to marry the girl I secretly love....
wow.
Very well done.

Well that's an idea, although I can't see Steve marrying her and not consummatting it. This chapter seemed a little lightweigh, given the content and I feel the whole force knowing and drawing straws seems a touch unreal.

its an amazing chapter full of dialogs, however i think its missing all the atmoshpere of the story, because the descriptions are so light in this case.

    This is only a few pages of a longer chapter. It is building for the next scenes.
