Love Quote by Diana Gabaldon

“I love you,” he murmured. “Oh, Bree, I do love you.” She didn’t answer, but a hand floated up from the dark and lay along his cheek, gentle as a tendril of seaweed. She kept it there while he took her, laid open in trust, while her other hand held his beating heart.” quote by Diana Gabaldon
