    |  | Wow. The second chapter rocked. The only thing I didn't like was the start. I mean even very successful lawyers get divorced. And their ex-spouses walk away with lots of money. Even if they were unfaithful. Spelling and grammar are adequate but could be improved. (6/10)

  (Edit)  (Jan 25, 2007)Thank you kindly for the review.  I definitely need to start spending more time in the editing process since even I get quite surprised by some of the dumb mistakes I make, so I guess I will just have to learn some patience and take my time writing/posting ^-^.As for believability, I have to confess that for me it was never really an issue.  If a premise is hot, I am willing to suspend a substantial amount of disbelief (besides, I hardly want this site to become a how to guide to on forcing people into sex!), but I understand your point.  I hope it doesn’t hinder your enjoyment of future chapters too much!
 …and that I learn to cut down on the use of exclamation points in reviews -_-‘.

    |  | A very interesting scene to set, the plot started well, the descriptions were fairly vivid, the characters good so far. As a personal opinion I would have liked and found it slightly more believable were the "seduction" or its relative ease to be better explained or drawn out. This did not stop me enjoying it a great deal, and I for one am very curious as to where this goes...don't take too long :-D (8/10)

  (Edit)  (Jan 21, 2007)Thank you for both the kind words and the advice.  I know exactly what you mean about the seduction, and I am not 100% happy with it myself.  Ideally it would be a much longer process that really built up the erotic tension, but I confess that I did not really feel my writing was up to the task.  Hopefully with a bit of practice, reflection and editing I will manage to introduce more of that into later chapters, maybe even revise this one.  Thank you again and I hope part 2 impresses you even more! |

  (Edit)  (Jan 21, 2007)Thanks for the generous review; damsels in distress have always been a favorite of mine.  I am working on a second chapter to the story, and have a broad outline of the plot arc (such as it is) in my head.  Still, I am going to try to work on my righting style (I think I come off a bit too clinical) so it will probably be a little bit. |

  (Edit)  (Jan 20, 2007)First off, thanks for being my first review.  It’s nice to know that my first shot did not just slide into obscurity!  Second, I am working on the second part of the story, but it may take a little longer since this segment was mainly an ice breaker for me.  Hopefully, that extra attention will help nudge your up your opinion. |  |  |
