Money Quote by Lauren Blakely
““I’m rewarded with another sweet smirk, and the knowledge that I like this kind of back and forth when no one is paying for me, when I’m not pretending to like someone, when there’s no exchange of power or money or goods. When we are just a guy and a girl spending an hour together on a Wednesday night in the Village in Manhattan,””
