I’m available for all auditions and I’m interested in the role of KY. I do have a travel conflict however, being out May 24-June 3. I don’t know if you could work around this, and understand if you cannot. I will send a HSR anyway. Thanks,

Rainee Denham

Hi everyone. I will love to share a testimony with you. a few months ago, my man left me for another lady. I love him so much and all I could think of was suicide. I tried several ways, but none worked. I decided to read online and read about spells and spells. I tried it, lost a lot of money, but it was the same result. I almost gave up until I met a spell Caster that convinced me of success and I read people's comments on his website. I was skeptical when I contacted him because I lost a lot of money. With two weeks of casting a spell, my man returned home to me... Now my man is very docile and loves me more. I am now 2 months pregnant and happy to have him back in my life. I would advise you to contact this powerful spell caster, who gave me a second chance to happiness and love, I tried a few spells and none worked. If anyone can help you bring back your love and guide you in your search for life solutions, it is him. Contact him directly at -Email- blackmagicsolutions95@gmail.com ......You can also Whatsapp him on +2349083639501. Be blessed.
