Beloved Quote by Suzanne Enoch

“Don’t cry,nyonda,” he murmured. Phillipa took a deep breath. “What does that mean, anyway? Nyonda?” His green gaze held hers. “It’s Swahili. It means ‘beloved.’” A small smile touched his mouth, and he brushed her cheek again. “You do know I love you, Phillipa. To an alarming degree.” quote by Suzanne Enoch
