Front door Quote by Lisa Kleypas
““You can ask Jack about getting into Eternal Truth." "You want Jack to go to church?" Hardy asked blankly. "Honey, he'd be struck by lightning as soon as he went in the front door." Haven grinned at him. "Compared to you, Jack is a choirboy." "Since he's your big brother," he told her kindly, "I'll let you keep your illusions.””
