Roy's a real jerk. I'm glad Joe slugged him. Hopefully Chip will see things in a better light. This is a really good chapter. It keeps your interest. Well done.

another good chapter. I look forward to seeing your name in my message box.
Matt walked over to Sara. "Hi, I'm Matt Patterson.
When Joe walked up to Matt, they shook hands and put one arm around each other's back. Joe released a deep breath. "Thank you. As usual, you show up at exactly the right moment. I hope you had a good flight." He walked over to Sara and took her hands in his. "I'm sorry."
(There seems to be a lot of walking over in these sentences. Try he shook Sara's hand, or he walzed or sauntered, or just leave out the walk with another action. IN this area of the chapter read it out loud. There even more walks)
"What's bothering you, besides you don't know where your daughter is?"
sentence structure. How about, "What's bothering you, besides not knowing where your daughter is?"
hugs book

I took care of those errors. Thank you for catching them.

You write in a very active voice that keeps the reader involved. It is exceptionally well done and you keep the actions of the characters flowing-- even when Sara is drinking water, Joe approaching Matt, etc. The revelation of Cassie's father and the circumstances shocked me. What every avid reader hopes for! You have real talent for being a first rate novelist, thanks for sharing your gifts.

Oh yeah! I'm glad that loser finally got a little of what's coming to him. I hope he is required to pay that back child support too. LoL I hate deadbeat dads!

Comment from SWANNY
Well written, overall.
Just one small suggestion:
Who knows what it'll come to with fourteen years of interest added on, but [it] should be enough to pay for Cassie's college."

Hi barbara,
Looks like Sara has plenty of help and I hope they locate Cassie soon. I am also glad Joe figured out who harmed Sara years ago. Your dialogue is great and your story flows smoothly. Good job!
Glad to hear the good news. I wish you the best with your recovery.

I like that Sara has some reservations after seeing Joe attacking the other man. That makes it more realistic. Another wonderful chapter.

LOL! Hurray! What a sigh of relief we can all breathe now. I'm sure your sons are so happy, and you as well. Congratulations.
Good chapter. I'm glad the word got out of what happened on the night when Sara got raped. Now the stories can end, and life can begin for all of them.
Now, let's help Dani find Cassie.
Kind regards,
anabelle
