It's these slow and thoughtful chapters that make the drama even more emotional for the reader. You really can identify with Anna as a person, and start to see pieces of yourself in her. This makes you pull for her even more. I just wish I didn't know some of what she's about to go through.

Hi Barbara:)
This post is short, but full of clues to the inner turmoil that is still with Anna. Just as she found it difficult to leave the meeting for abused spouses, she still stays there with Troy, attempting to settle the bad memories from her marriage.

When they finally go to Troy's car, the sound of a loud muffler caused Anna to grab Troy's arm. Old fears die hard, but is it just paranoia?

Later after Anna was home and Michael was in bed, she had time to unwind until another noise caught her attention. Maybe it was just Michael turning over, but maybe I'm catching Anna's paranoia.

THANKSGIVING WAS WONDERFUL HERE IN SLC, UTAH!
I LIKED THIS CHAPTER, IS AS NORMAL AS REAL LIFE, NOT ALWAYS IT IS A CLIFF HANGER FOR AN ENDING. IT'S GOOD TO KNOW ANNA AND MICHAEL ARE SAFE.
WELL DONE BARBARA!!

When people fall asleep in the tub it worries me, but I suppose they would wake up before they drowned, I hope. This is an excellent chapter and I have a feeling there is more excitement coming up.

Technically, this is a well written chapter. No spags found.

However, and I don't mean to sound negative, for me it did not seem up to your usual quality of writing. The story line seemed cut to the bone and rushed.

Sorry. JW

Hmmmm, barbara:

You are becoming quite masterful at dropping very
subtle hints for readers to catch as they eagerly
anticipate the next chapter. I am talking about such
things as "Was that Michael? She listened again. He must've rolled over." I suspect it wasn't Michael!

thanks for sharing
love,
jan

In this short excerpt, and not having read any previous chapters, already I am eagerly looking forward to the next one. I think there is suspense,when Anna thinks she hears a sound, it makes you think that possibly there is someone in the house, despite her having checked and locked up. Great job. Keep writing.I'd love to read the whole book. Thank you for bringing such a difficult topic to light.

It has been awhile since I have been able to read and review your work. This was another very well written chapter. I love your descriptive abilities and dialogues. I hope to someday be able to write with the same talent you have. Thanks for sharing.
