Beautiful girl Quote by Erin Lawless
““She’d pulled back her hair to air her neck, just for one second, fanning her flushed cheeks by flapping her other hand. She’d smiled at him and pulled a face at how hot and stuffy the bar was. Miles had thought she was beautiful, the most beautiful girl he’d ever seen, and if you’d told him, in that minute, that he’d be in this beautiful creature’s bed tonight, or that in seven years’ time he’d be waiting for her at the top of the aisle, he could never have believed you.””
