she finds herself in the uncomfortable predicament of abandonment on her
wedding day, embarrassed and humiliated she retreats to the country.Nigel Rochefort, second son of the Earl of Monfort, has

Tell us about yourself, please.My name is Eva Kenward. I am
originally from England
where I was a companion to my stepmother’s aunt. It was a comfortable, albeit
boring life. My only relations are a half-brother, and a distant uncle. I love
to read and have always been fascinated with tales of the Wild West.What is it that you want, but cannot have?
Authors call this the conflict of the story.I want to be part of my family, but my
stepmother and half-brother have other ideas for my future. I have a distant
uncle in California.
Although he has not responded to my letters, I hope to be reunited with him in
the near future.What inner doubt causes you the most
difficulty?I constantly worry that when I finally
succeed in reaching California
and find my uncle that he will have even less interest in me than my dead
father.What’s your external complication? In the
story world your author created, explain what it is you fear most.My greatest fear is to never find my uncle
and be part of a real family. My life gets considerably complicated when I lose
all my funds, clothing…everything! I am forced to find work while my dream of
reaching California
slips further away.Tell us about your significant other, that
person who makes living worthwhile.What would that person say about you?What is your family like?My mother died when I was a little girl and
my father soon remarried. At first I was excited to have a stepmother, but that
excitement gave way to loneliness. She never had time for me, always too
concerned with the latest soiree or fashionable pursuit. My half-brother was
far worse. He was the heir and controlled my entire existence.Are you happy with the way your story ended?
Why or why not?More than happy. All my hopes and dreams
came true in the wild west I love so much.About the Writer

life behind in England

Hunt’s family traditions.Why
