    How can I not play? So happy and excited for you!

    The Last of the Mohicans—Hawkeye (and, yes, I’m not ashamed to admit the original novel is one of my favorites) Clever. Independent. Determined.

    I read your first book and loved it! I love Emma (Jane Austen) because she is romantic, naive, and optimistic! (This is Jake's wife, Emily:))

    So excited for your next book. I'm not the best at this but I have always had a tender spot for Colonel Brandon. He is caring, loyal and compassionate. What you want in your soulmate.
