Oh dear lord. Where do I begin?! This story is a captivating read with a brilliant plot. I honestly don't know what to say, you have rendered me speechless, which I can assure you is an amazing feat. I love this story for its emotional depth, the main character is still so afraid of being beaten, or worse.. I especially love Matthew. All in all this story really tickled my fancy and I can't wait for more, please update soon. :)

Thank you 'so' much for updating so soon.
I love the sister-brother relationship between Travis and Catherine and I'm guessing they were talking about what the main character endured when Johnson showed up?
Still loving this story and can't wait for more. :)

Once again this story has grabbed me by the hair and refuses to let go. I love this chapter for the fact that the main character is finally getting some fun in her life. Another great read.
One other thing. I was wondering if you could supply a general description of the main character as I would like to have a go at drawing her. I don't promise it'll be very good but if it doesn't look like a complete failure I will definitely submit it up here.
Loving it, Brit

Sure! There are clues in the story, but you kind of have to search for them because I don't think I ever give a full description, just hints. So, here's a description for you. ^-^
She's shorter (probably around 5'4") with shoulder length black hair, pale skin (though it's a little bit because she hasn't been allowed outside for so long, she is capable of tanning, though if you need a "race" she's Caucasian) and her eyes are a light, icy green rimmed in gray. Due to her abuse, she's pretty scrawny (when she's first found she only weighs about 68 pounds, which is approximately 50 pounds underweight for someone her height) and covered in bruises, but she does eventually heal and fill out a bit. She ends up a healthy weight, but still on the skinny side. She's already past her "growing" stage, so she doesn't get any taller. Eventually she gets her hair done at a salon and it's cut shorter (to get rid of the split ends) and is curled in just a bit to frame her face.
I hope that helps. I'm glad you're enjoying the story!

Hi there.
I just wanted to let you know I have uploaded the un-colored draft of the main character. It should show up in your story album now.
Cheers.
PS. Yeah, I've changed me name. Used to be Britta Fax but I just love this new name and the character it belongs to so much I had to use it. :)

Just as a head's up, I'm going to try and post more than one chapter a day because I want the whole story posted before I go to Disney World next month so you won't have to wait for me to get back to finish it. :)

Cool, thanks for letting me know. I love the new chapters by the way. I really wasn't expecting Carter to show up and throw everything out the window, but that just made it better! XD LOVE IT!!

Hehe. Thank you for writing such a beautiful story. :D
I was just wondering if you would be interested in reading my story Marked Book 1: A Darker Power? It is a fantasy so if you don't read that it's so prob. I have the first couple of chapters up but they are undergoing some rewriting so I will hopefully get the new ones up soon.
Thanks a lot,

I will try to look into that. It seems like every time I think I have time to start reading a book, something comes up and then I forget to go back and finish it! One of these days my life will have to give me a break, right? :P

And 'that' was a beautiful, beautiful finish. I am truly happy with this story and, though I wish I could erase it all from my mind so that I could go back and read it again and feel the same feelings of suspense and happiness and joy as I felt reading through the first time I am content with it how I have it. Thank you so much for such an amazing story I am forever indebted to you.
