This is very well written and kept my interest. What a surprise ending and he was saved in the nick of time to join his love in the protection. I like happy endings. good job. Love, Jean

What a great storyline, but what a dreadful shock for Jason, never mind the heartache of the time between.
However, at least they get together eventually, even if they have to be on teh witness protection programme.

What a lovely surprise ending! Great tension throughout.

Liked these lines especially: For weeks, I begged God to take my life, too. He either wasn't listening or didn't understand. :)

Well done!

This work has reached the exceptional level

Nice surprise ending, though I had an inkling from the start. I guess it comes from watching TV. Very strong narrative. The first paragraph drew me in immediately, and I had to know what happened. Best of luck in the competition. You have a very fine story. Ray.

You did a nice job of incorporating the word list into "Taken." Your skill in writing the story drew me into it so well that I had to read it twice to find all of them.

A very well written piece that kept me involved all the way. Good fast moving story without any clutter or 'spags' that were apparent.

Have a great day, regards Mia

Well, it's a darn good thing they got there when they did, otherwise she would have witnessed him blow his fool brains out all over her empty grave. Oie. Nicely done! Good luck with the contest. :)
