Amy-andrews Quote by Amy Andrews
““I just don’t understand why they’d think we were together, when I’m leaving the country to live on the other side of the planet in a month?” It was Ryder’s turn to snort. “Well gosh, I don’t know Juliet. Maybe your hand on my cock was a clue.” She sucked in a breath, her eyes glittering now. “They could not see that!” “They didn’t have to,” he bit out. “We were practically humping each other at the table.””

![“I was on set [Romeo + Juliet] maybe an hour for two days. It was in this big cathedral in Mexico City. I just remember being up there in the balcony, and it was myself up front and there was a choir behind me. In front of me was this rail, like this cement rail, and I was like, "Oh my gosh!"…” quote by Quindon Tarver](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/240/quindon-tarver-26055_balconies_i-was-on-set-romeo-juliet-maybe-an-hour_388885.jpg)
