As always, Barbara, this novel absorbing whole my attention, for Anna continues the concern and the threats of Boby. I see that Michael not is with she, it seems that I lost a chapter. Excellent this that I read.

Barbara,
Your latest chapter is short and filled with intrigue. Who is calling? Her ex-monster-in-law or a new chick her ex is doing his bidding because she's coxed to do so? You've written a marvelous chapter an as I read your story came to life in my head with vivid imagery. It's about damned time Anna got a backbone! I like feisty women that won't take no guff. Your chapter shows how survivors of domestic abuse cope, but they have to live their life in fear for their ex or a member of his family to harm her for the kids sake. Some folks are complete trash who'd rather 'murder' their spouse than get a divorce or they feel kids are possessions, when children are a gift. I watch Investigation ID and it sickens me how people involved in a toxic relationship will murder or hire someone to murder someone they vowed to love for better or worse. I say get a freaking divorce and move the hell on! I'd recommend your latest chapter to other readers and reviewers. I hope your feeling fine, my friend. BTW, beautiful art your hubby created. Please have a blessed day. Peace out...Melissa.

    I'm fighting another bladder infection and the antibodics I'm on is making me sick. I an itching like crazy in the vag area and I may have yeast because of the antibodics and I have to take this pill that will kill it, but the pill makes me feel lethargic. I hurt right now 12 out of 1-10 pain scale. I need to take a Tramadol and start writing or reading to take my mind off my dang pain. I'm so glad you're doing better.
    Melissa.

Your love story is interesting and I enjoyed reading it. Troy seems like an honest man that wants to have a true relationship. He also seems like a patient man willing to wait until Anna works out her demons. I have no suggestions for any changes.

Moments later, she stood and wiped her eyes with her arm. "I refuse to spend another second having a pity party. I'm through playing their games."/This is an excellent hook. What reader would not want to find out what Anna will do next? You've created another good chapter in this saga.

    Thank you for your kind review and encouraging words. Hey, I did not bump you out of first place. I put myslef in fifth place. I have a guardian angel who bumps me up to first. Please don't take offense at it. I am sorry.
reply by axelbeariter on 23-Jan-2012
    You didn't do anything wrong. All I care about is being in the top ten for four days, so I can get as much feedback as possible. That usually alerts me as to whether I need to make any changes. I could never be mad at you. Your writing has inspired my own at times. I didn't post my book until I was totally satisfied, and yet reviewers still have found a few things I could have done better. But hopefully we are all on FS for that reason. Axel

Hopefully, nothing will happen to Troy. It looks like these people will never stop harassing Anna. Yes. There are people like this. They hurt others, when others confront them or report them, they will harass them until they end up killing themselves with their own meanness. This is very well written, Barbara.

I know romance fiction has a certain tone--mushy style if you will. I think you achieved the feel quite well. The line about unconditional love, though, went a little far. There's really no such thing as "unconditional love" -- there's true love, devoted love, all kinds of love, but among adults(?).

    I am sorry to disagree with you. I think there can be unconditional love. I know it. I am sorry you haven't. Thank you for the kind review.
reply by Terra Dane on 22-Jan-2012
    No need to get snippy. Maybe unconditional love with God or a child. Sorry it was difficult to take the line seriously, especially since their is a condition--being rid of personal demons. So, that's a contradiction.
reply by the author on 22-Jan-2012
    I did not mean it smippy. I honestly believe in unconditional love and I have talked with others about it throughout the years and they have felt it too. I am sorry if you took my response as snippy, that was not my intention. That's one thing I hate about replies, because sometimes they come across ways that was not meant.

Very well written as I have no other exceptionals, unless I get more today, still confused about the site. That being said this is exceptional work. I admire your work with the abused partners. I can so relate. Thanks for the information in your authors notes so very kind and helpful. Blessings to you and yours, Teresa.

    We get 6 six stars to give at 1201 AM Sundays. So you received your six for the week early this morning. Thank you for the kind review and your encouraging words.
reply by Teresa Paul on 22-Jan-2012
    I tried to go back and change my stars but it only went to 5 is that because I gave 5 to begin with? Blessings, Teresa.
reply by the author on 22-Jan-2012
    Not a problem. Once you give a rating, it won't let you give a six. If you give a four or something it will let you change it to a 5.
reply by Teresa Paul on 22-Jan-2012
    Thank you for the info. It will not happen again. Yours, Teresa.

Another very good chapter, which outlines more of the torment and mental / physical torture that your protagonist is feeling. Thank you, again, for sharing your work.

Good chapter, Barbara.
