"Here's Looking at You Kid"

Casablanca is one of my all time favorite movies. The wit, the quotes, the involved story-line, the romance...and I want more of it!

I want to read the most romantic thing that i have ever read in my life. Give me sappy, give me sweet. I'm a hopeless romantic and not too horribly hard to please where romance stories are concerned.

A couple of catches or rules if you want to look at it that way:

1) no sticky caps
2) use good grammar and check your spelling; sloppy is unacceptable where romance is concered
3) I don't want to have read it before, please. If I have, I'll let you know and give you a chance to give me a new story, otherwise, you'll be dis-qualified.
4) I don't care how long it is
5) I'm not opposed to erotica at all, but please label it that way and make sure that there's ROMANCE in there as the main focus. I don't want a simple sex scene.

Other than that, have fun and make my hopelessly romantic heart burst with love!

Any questions? Send me a message and I'll be sure to get back to you!
