Hi Sharon, congratulations on your contest win! And very well deserved! A few things were going through my mind like sex or an abortion but I should have paid more attention to the title and title description. Your outcome took me by complete surprise, the sign of a good fiction writer; your dialogue credible and a joy to read. Well done! Debbie

This work has reached the exceptional level

well, of curse you won. That is marvelous. Suspense up to the end and then, although it's still surgery, a welcome surprise and a neat thing for her to do.
After reading it to the end, though, I went back to the beginning and I didn't get why, if she decided not to donate her kidney, she says, leaving town, starting over as an alternative?
Anyway, it IS a great gift! good story.
Katharine

What is the greatest gift one can give someone else? There's never been a double in mine, a kidney is one of the great living gifts, but one's life is greater, this is so beautifully written, blessings Roy

Your story had me hooked right away! The tension between Bree and Ben were so real. I loved the way their love for each other shone through. You built up the suspense so well! I thought it was leading to something else.
The dialogue felt natural and full of heart. This was such a touching read!

This is a touching story and of course these events do happen and we can all survive with just one kidney. I enjoyed your inventive dialogue and wish you luck with the contest, love Dolly x

Nice entry and very vague as theme, and this is the trick because you can imagine everything, pregnancy, run-away marriage, even ... a disease. Thank you for sharing and good luck with the contest.
