Heart Quote by Tessa Dare
““Her affection overwhelmed him, as did her softness, her tears. Even after all he’d said to her, after all he’d done-she still gave a damn whether he lived or died. It was humbling. Incomprehensible. Wonderful. If he’d known this would be his reward, he would have fallen overboard weeks ago.””
