Julia Quinn Quote

I-- She swallowed, perhaps summoning her courage, then continued, I would not lie to you and say that I did not want this.Me, he cut in peevishly. You wanted me.She closed her eyes. Yes, she finally said, I wanted you.Part of him wanted to interrupt again, to remind her that she still wanted him, that it wasn’t and would never be in the past.But I can’t have you, she said quietly, and because of that, you can’t have me.And then, to his complete astonishment, he asked, What if I married you?
