I stepped in here to read because of voting for book of the month and I am not sorry that I did. It is very good story telling and domestic abuse is a disgusting state of affairs and it breaks my heart. Thank you for the read tonight.

Good to see you on the big list. Your writing is uncluttered, powerful, tense short sentences. I'm going back to read it again. No one deserves to be nominated more than you. It was a bit of a let down that I wasn't on the list this time. But it made room for you, finally, it was the right call. Stan

Hi Barbara,Things are finally coming together. It's odd how Bobby would leave Michael outside and just push Anna inside. He hasn't even looked out to get him. Is he expecting one of his partners in crime to snatch Michael?

    Bobby never really cared for Michael. Michael was just in his way. That was established at the beginning of the novel. He main focus right now is to kill Anna for all she's put his through. Thank you for the kind review.

This is a well written and violent chapter.
You did a great job with this chapter; showing Anna growing courage to talk back to Bobby. You did a well portraying Bobby here. Hope some one came and rescued Anna.
Congratulation!

Okay, I am tired of that creep. I knew that there would be a confrontation with him and you have told it with a lot of tension. Great job.

E ALL CAPS FOR IT IS EASIER FOR ME TO READ. IN NO WAY, SHAPE OR FORM AM I YELLING OR SHOUTING.

GREAT BALANCE BETWEEN SHOWING AND TELLING. THE IGNORANCE OF THE ANTAGONIST WAS QUITE EVIDENT AS WAS THE SUFFERING OF THE PROTAGONIST. SCENE DEVELOPMENT EXCELLENT AND THE REALISTIC DIALOGUE AND ACTION MOVED THE PLOT ALONG. KUDOS!

TAKE CARE,

RAY

Poor Anna just can't catch a break. Unfortunately, all too often it works this way in the real world too. This is very well written with excellent dialogue. The anger I felt while reading is all the proof I need that you've done an excellent job getting your point across--

Oh no :( Poor Anna. I hope she gets out of there okay. The police better show up soon.

Great job on this fast paced, scary chapter. You're dialogue is natural and you left with a good hanger.

Hello Barbara
I have to tell you, it just amazes me how a story can infuriate me to the point of smacking another human. This is a story for crying out loud and I am pisses. That is the sign of a true writer. Having the ability to create feelings with words. Barbara, you are officially a true Word Smith now
