Lerene chapter 5 . 1/4/2008
Suggestion? More Rain. I love his character so much.

Can't wait to read the part when Olivia trains with him. I have a feeling it's going to be HOT!
Tortured Breath chapter 3 . 1/4/2008
So there was quite a bit that needed to be fixed in the departments of grammar. That is not to say that I liked the chapter any less because I LOVED it. But. . . here are a few of the things that I found.

". . .also became one of her best friends. . . " is wrong, ". . . also become one of her best friends. . ." is right.

". . . this to reinstate her point." should be, ". . . this to reiterate her point."

Do you mean "unthinkable" or "unlikely?"

". . . she went out like a light." should be, ". . . she was out like a light."

Between the lines of "A black sedan. . ." and ". . . went out like a light." there should be a separation of some kind like "x" etc.

". . . looked good for kissing. . ." is COMPLETELY out of context, or language use. It changes the tone completely and takes away from the "seductive danger" of this "man."

"fucken" should be "fuckin' "

". . .and everything." is out of context of the rest of the dialogue.

Slightly confusing when it came to their conversation between her and her friend. What in goodness sake? Background information would be good so that the reader can fully understand what is going on. Who is this random guy who is living with her dad? It does not make sense to the reader in the slightest.

How would she have thought of escaping if she was pricked in the back of the neck? You should say something about her just passing out. No "thoughts of escape" because how could she be thinking of escape if she did not know what was going on?

It was interesting how you showed the two interacting in the first place. When they were first meeting. But something that you might want to look into is your use of sophisticated language during certain sections and then colloquial (or slang) in other sections. It is confusing the reader because of the change constantly.

I really liked this chapter. Maybe a little bit more action to hold the reader in. Keep up the good work!

Make sure you put a break between the two with "x" or something like that. So then it will be less confusing for the reader.

"We're getting to our desitnation real soon." should be "We will be reaching our destination very soon."

So far so good. A little bit odd when you change to different scenes (even with my glasses it's still hard to see the elipses you put in for scene or location change (perhaps bold it?)

I see the story going somewhere! Update soon and I'll try to review :)
Tortured Breath chapter 2 . 1/4/2008
Hm. . . well the chapter is so short. Maybe it is just the font that I am looking at it in. But maybe you could do a little more elaboration between chapters in order to make them longer.

Make sure that you check for typos. "Anythiing" is incorrect. "Anything" is correct.

Also, on another note make sure that you do not weigh the reader down with too much detail at one time. The way that the first few paragraphs are worded are hard to get through. This is because you are throwing detail after detail at the reader. Maybe you should try to span it over more than just those few paragraphs. An example would be that you mentioned her best friend saying what he thought of her but you did not elaborate on that and just continued with the information that was given, this made me lose the fact that she HAD a best friend.

Just a thought. . .

Wow! That was really good! So chocked full of emotion. . . it really makes you feel connected to the main character. Where is the kidnapping? Maybe in coming chapters?

ipanema chapter 5 . 1/4/2008
ok, why dosnt she rebel or at least try to be more dificult?

I know it sound ridiculous but that kind of what i would do.

I mean how dare her father comes and demands she be the perfect trading bargain, for i guess thats what he intends her to be..?

uPDATE!

Lerene chapter 4 . 12/18/2007
great chapter

thing I would like it comment about is the chapter need to broken up. You need to put something up to seperate the scenery when we're with Olivia and when were with Angie. It's a little confusing. Maybe put a line or something.

Other than that I love it. It's a great story. real good.
MidnightSolstice chapter 4 . 12/17/2007
I like where the story is going, its got tons of potential . I wonder why its not safe for her to live 'in the open' anymore, and will her friends come to rescue her? hm so much to wonder about. Hope you continue this story! Cause I can't wait to read more.
