Wealthy - billionaire character
Rich - billionaire character
That’s from the cover and summary."
also, woman, one of the MCs is a woman
hey everyone!I'm sorry I've been MIA, but real life has been a mess and I've fallen into a slump...
Annalisa, see if that helps:Koala: loc. 797: Wait. I think that's koala bears. Those things are evil bastards.
Llama: loc. 2146: Oh my, holly llama babies everywhere, I could feel just how distracted he was.
Raccoon: loc. 2810: My finger hovered over the last text Luc had sent Friday afternoon, which had been another weird rant about how raccoons don't get enough love.
Owl: loc. 5843: “Obviously, a big issue with the zones is communication. Since cell phones don’t work within about a hundred-mile radius of the cities, we set up hot spots outside that radius, places where messages can be left on burner phones.”
“A Harry Potter owl would be cooler,” I muttered.
Coyote: loc. 6945: “That would probably be a dog,” Luc commented. “Or a coyote,” Zoe said. “I definitely think there are coyotes around here"
Annalisa, I’m on my phone now, as soon as I can get to my computer, I’ll post the full sentences
