Julia Quinn
He didn’t know where the thought had come from, or what strange corner of his brain had come to that conclusion, because he was quite certain it would be nearly impossible to live with her, but somehow he knew that it wouldn’t be at all difficult to love her.
Julia Quinn
There were a lot of things in life to be afraid of, but strangeness ought not be among them.
Julia Quinn
Tell me something wicked.
