Julia Quinn Quote
Miss Featherington!' Lady D boomed. 'You haven't told me who you suspect.''No, Penelope,' Colin said, a rather smirky smile on his face, 'you haven't.'Penelope's first instinct was to mumble something under her breath and hope that Lady Danbury's age had left her hard enough of hearing that she would assume that any lack of understanding was the fault of her own ears and not Penelope's lips. But even without glancing to her side, she could feel Colin's presence, sense his quirky, cocky grin egging her on, and she found herself standing a little straighter, with her chin perched just a little higher than usual.He made her more confident, more daring. He made her more...herself. Or at least the herself she wished she could be.
