Felicia | 15003 comments Ruthie, please choose one guess when posting your books. I counted one of them because brown/auburn hair is almost the same thing. But historical and fantasy are not. So please choose one. Let me know what it is and I'll post the guess into the character guesses list. But your book has been counted for points already.
