Judith McNaught Quote

With his current mood, Elizabeth realized, she was going to have to make her own opening. Lifting her eyes to his enigmatic golden ones, she said quietly, Ian, have you ever wanted something very badly-something that was within your grasp-and yet you were afraid to reach out for it? Surprised by her grave question and her use of his name, Ian tried to ignore the jealousy that had been eating at him all night. No, he said, scrupulously keeping the curtness from his voice as he gazed down at her alluring face. Why do you ask? Is there something you want? Her gaze fell from his, and she nodded at his frilled white shirtfront. What is it you want? You.
