First time Quote by Julia Quinn

“And when he kissed her . . . All she wanted was more. “You are so beautiful,” he murmured, and for the first time in her life, Sarah truly believed that she was. She touched his cheek. “So are you.” Hugh smiled down at her, a silly half grin that told her he did not believe her for one second.” quote by Julia Quinn
