Jean Goodwin's boyfriend got into the Valentine's Day spirit a little early when he bought her a $14,000 top-prize winning Wild Hearts scratch-off, which she claimed at the Louisiana Lottery's Shreveport office.

"He said he bought the ticket because it has hearts on it for love," said Goodwin, age 41. "It feels awesome to win!"

Goodwin, a Shreveport resident, said she plans to buy a car with her winnings. Her winning ticket was purchased at Circle K #8178 on Jefferson-Paige in Shreveport.
