Emerald Quote by Nicholas Sparks
““As he shook her hand and met those striking emerald eyes, he knew before he'd taken his next breath that she was the one he could spend the rest of his life looking for but never again. She seemed that good, that perfect, while a summer wind blew through the trees.””
