Heart Quote by Liz Fenton

“She wanted to get to Maui and erase the rest of the world. To lie on the beach and daydream about what it would be like if James weren’t married, or if she were the most important woman in his life—something she thought about often, but was reluctant to bring up to James in any serious way.” quote by Liz Fenton
