This section of chapter three is an excellent addition to your story. I cannot help but curious as to what is going to happen next. Good job.

Thank you for the kind review. I will share that we are not finished with Bobby, yet.

As usual Barbara, this is an excellent chapter. Anna's obviously will be drawn to Troy because Troy is so different than Bobby. I didn't see any spag.

Thank you for your eagle eye. I rewrite sentences so often that I often omit words or leave extra there. Thank you for your kind review.
Comment from Connie P
I'm very worried about Bobby. They won't keep him in jail very long on a domestic violence charge. I wish Anna could get her baby and get out of town or into a shelter. Very good chapter, no need for corrections. I'm sure many appreciate the stats and help line. The statistics staggered me. My father was abusive to my mother both physically and emotionally, but not to this extent. She would never leave him, though.

Many women never leave the abuser. I appreciate you kind review. Yes, Bobby will return.
Comment from patwannabe
Barbara, thank you for posting the stats. I was verbally abused by my husband of 57 years and never had the courage or the means to leave him. He never hit me, but there were several close calls. I believe now that he was bipolar because his behavior was so erratic, up and down. He's been dead for 5 years and I'm glad he's gone.
Well done, pat

Exposing spousal abuse or any kind of abuse, is one of the most important things a writer can do. Thanks for continuing to write about this.

Certainly a romance is brewing between those two, and that would be a good thing... I hope. She will have a difficult time ahead, but it seems she knows what she needs to do. Ray aka R. K. Alan

I do write romance, so even though it's a tough subject matter, I have to stick to my roots. Thank you for your kind review.
Comment from nora arjuna
hi barb, not much happening here. i look forward to read on the father's visit. check these suggestions:
Her hand touched a swollen and bruised cheek.
She touched her bruised and swollen cheek. "I'm far from beautiful," she murmured and stared at the blankets covering her.
Bobby beat me so badly because I did, [and] I ended up here.

Wow! Those stats are shocking. How can this problem be so ignored in this country. Nobody want to see it, hear it or talk about it, especially the victims. Something needs to change and your a big part of the change by shinning a light on the problem. Thanks for that. Write On. -Dale

If a man murders his wife in our country he will get somewhere around 2 - 6 years in prison. If a wifer murders her husband, she will get about 15 years. I appreciate your kind review.
Comment from Auroraboreal800
I found your story more and more interesting in each new chapter. I think the idea of adding some stats in the author's notes is very dramatic, but is good.
You're doing a very good job Barbara.
