Gage Quote by Jessie Lane
““Lifting his head to set his chin in the middle of her chest, Gage looked her in the eyes and murmured back, “Because you make me want to be more man than animal. You make me want to live and love deeply enough for one lifetime rather than live hundreds of lifetimes without you.” - Gage””
