typo="Steven glared [at] her before glancing at Matt. "Will we offer her protection?"
suggestion="They each chambered a round and [each went to the] opposite sides of the door." [moved to]= would read a bit smoother (IMO) Ah shoot, leave at another cliff hanger, I want more...what happened when they opened the door, guess it is commercial time..LOL. Doing great, you are skillfully drawing your reader in at just the right speed, trapped, wanting to read more.. great job. Isn't it a shame that we can't use the cliff hanger effect in our books like they do on TV... I enjoyed and will try to wait patiently for the next installment. Lora

I already knew about the first typo, but my computer caught a virus and I couldn't get it repaired. Thank you for your review. I'm on it.
Comment from Belinda
I know the length of a story or chapter is relative. But I think this chapter is too short, it does not take us anywhere. Or, on the other hand, it is because this chapter is very interesting. I can't wait for the next one.

The entire chapter is very long. I divided it into three parts. The is the ending of chapter 1. Chapter 1 was too long and this is the best way to divide it, too keep the reader interesting in all three posts. Thank you

Leya has told Joe that her brother has kidnapped a baby. She wants protection because she is afraid he will hurt her. I still wonder why she decided to help them especially if she is afraid of her brother.

In Chapter 2 part 2, I think, maybe 3 she answeres that. I'm not sure how many pages of Chapter 2, I'm going to post in part 1. A good place to stop, I'm afraid is too long to post, so I'm still trying to decide where do divide it.

Wow, Barbara! This is great! Somehow I still don't trust the woman. But we'll see, eh?
I loved the way you ended this chapter. Makes you want to hurry and turn the page! Can't wait to see what happens next!
Thanks again for another great read!

You have maintained the suspense and intrique with this chapter. Matt and his team are up against some very evil people. Very well written with good imagery and descriptive scheme.

Comment from nora arjuna
I hope they'll find the baby. Nothing much to crit here. It's a fine, fast read mostly with a cliffhanger ending.
Taking [her] arm, Steven asked, "Donde'?" (Where?) - I think you should use her name here, then you can use 'she' in the next instance.
Steven glared [at] her before glancing at Matt. - don't you need the word there?

Steven doesn't know her name, yet. Thank you as always I appreciate your review/
-
Yes, he doesn't know, but I thought you introduced her to the readers before? Or else;
Taking [the woman's] arm, Steven asked, - just how I see it. :)
-
She introduced herself to Matt and Joe, but not to Steven. She does it later in the hall. I like the woman's better. Thank you.
Comment from Seaborn
You have a really good story line but the action is choppy in this section. I think you need to slow down and remember that your reader cant see the image in your mind unless you give enough description. I know I have a tendency to do that, too! I really enjoy your story, though, I look forward to reading more! LS
