Comments on 'Welcome to Violence'From around my tunes she heard an oily voice, "You girls a bunch of nudists, or are you just short of clothes?"

The heroine here is not only very sympathetic but too patient. Mr. Track Suit would’ve found himself wrapped around the treadmill from the moment he opened his mouth, if it was me. :D<br />LoA</p>http://ficlets.com/stories/28011?basename=574262008-04-19T16:26:36ZAna Cristinahttp://ficlets.com/authors/asimon78
