J.R. Ward Quote

You are so beautiful, he said as he stared at her, standing there in the light like that. She glanced at her Gap black pants and her two-year-old knit turtleneck. You must be blind. Why? he asked, coming over to her. Well, I feel like such an ass for saying this. She smoothed the front of her off-the-rack-and-then-some slacks. But I wish I had better clothes. Then I’d be beautiful. Rehvenge paused. And then shocked the crap out of her by kneeling before her. As he looked up, he had a slight smile on his lips. Don’t you get it, Ehlena. With gentle hands, he stroked down her calf and brought her foot forward, balancing it on his thigh. As he undid the laces on her cheapo Keds sneaker, he whispered, No matter what you wear…to me, you will always have diamonds on the soles of your shoes.-Rehv & Ehlena
