But now every time I try to replicate it (for stories set in the same world), it never turns out quite right... :P Maybe I just need to find the right stories? :)Marlene Simonettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06467939783399662851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3012189846533980168.post-61964450779237936382016-12-31T00:48:17.594-05:002016-12-31T00:48:17.594-05:00I wonder who Roebuck is.

I really loved how Roebuck turned out to not be entirely bad after all and saved the baby. And Tranquility was a likable heroine to read about as well.Hazel Westhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01234157921832851920noreply@blogger.com
