Kissing Quote by Lisa Kleypas
““I can think of a hundred things better than kissing. Decorating for Christmas, petting the dogs, extra butter on the crumpets, having someone scratch the itch on your back that you can't quite reach-" "You haven't tried kissing," Cassandra told her. "You might like it. Helen does." "Helen likes Brussels sprouts. How can anyone trust her opinion?””
