Cover: At the top of the first page or to the side! (A/N: Sorry it's not great!)

Additional: I would trade off narratives between Mason and RJ. RJ is a really good poker player. Eventually, she and her casino story will be on national news. RJ also doesn't know how to feel about falling in love. She also grows self-conscious about her former tomboy, homeless self and at one point tries to glam herself up but Mason tells her he likes her the way she is. Ah, true love...

(A/N: Again, you do not have to use everything I give you! These are just a prompt! Also remember to give me credit! And sorry the cover really sucks! I couldn't find the picture I wanted, so I went with that! Thanks, guys!)
