Quote by Susan Wiggs

“Yes, she was a mess, but she wasn’t fragile. She would not be broken. So many times in her life, she’d felt powerless, but once she grabbed hold of her power, she realized it had been there all along, waiting for her to find it. And Jerome seemed to know that. He was her safe harbor. He defined, at long last, who she belonged to, who was there for her, who saw her and cherished her.”

“I've stayed here in Oxford as the seasons have changed, watching summer turn to autumn turn to winter turn to spring. And in the coming cycle, I will be here once more. Season after season, year after year, as crocuses make way for summer honeysuckle, as sun-loving lantana ease out for the quieter mums, as pansies blanket the wintry town and as spring beauties burst forth again behind the snow. I'll still be here with Fisher by my side. Because this spring the stars aligned, as Marian promised they would. I picked a mid-March spray of spirea, made myself a bridal bouquet, and gave my whole heart to the man whose heart was given whole to me.”
