Authors note: My first attempt at a novel. The plot is outlined and about half the first book is written. While the novel as a whole is a feelgood story with lots of worldbuilding there will still be challenges and drama. Also, don't assume that the first characters you meet are the love interest, things will evolve in a different direction. The romance parts of the novel pick up slowly but will definately come. Some explicit scenes will occur but some things will also be left to the imagination.
