Really enjoyed your story. Nice build-up of the characters.
Shame about a few spelling mistakes like:
house being reprocessed instead of repossessed, or taught face instead of taut (Hope you don't think that is being pernickety)
Look forward to reading more....

As I started reading your story, I become super engrossed into Gillian’s life. I felt really sorry for her, so when you showed the readers the alternative path, I was glad to see her get control over her life. Thank you for sharing your work!
