What does a thirteen-year-old know of love? Read about lovers in several universes and phases of their life. Meet Mr. Smiles, a handsome and charming, green-eyed brunette who makes your heart jump everytime you hear his name. The main character, you. Yes you! A younggirl with brown eyes and brown hair. These two physical features give

the book its name, 'Marron et Eau de Nil', which is a romantic fictionwritten to make you fall in love with love. If you were to wait longenough after finishing this book, you would see I almost predict the future, perhaps both yours and mine through these simple stories.

Fairy tales were written because someone indeed lived them. Your only

goal by the end is to find who is Mr. Smiles, both in reality and in your life. If you guess them both correctly, the book as well as I will have served my purpose. Go ahead and pursue yours and watch as I pursue mine. I can't wait to witness the green and brown mix right in your eyes to finally fall as tears when Daisy sends you a happy letter

goodbye. Love, love.
