Emily Giffin

Emily Giffin

Emily Giffin
Then he asks if he can kiss me. It is a question I don’t usually like. Just do it, I always think.
Emily Giffin
Did she ever regret her choices? Were her decisions more clear-cut than mine - or are there always shades of gray whe it comes to matters of the heart?
Emily Giffin
