Quote by Samantha Verant

“At that moment, I was surrounded by the people who saw me for what I was, who accepted me for what I was, even when I vacillated with self-doubt. Grand-mère would have been proud. I felt her spirit growing stronger inside of me every day. And then... a dragonfly flew over my head, circled, and landed on my shoulder.”

“Her parents and Seraphina were there to keep her company, as were Lord and Lady Westcliff, whom she and her siblings had always called "Uncle Marcus" and "Aunt Lillian." Lord Westcliff's hunting estate, Stony Cross Park, was located in Hampshire, not far from Eversby Priory. The earl and his wife, who had originally been an American heiress from New York, had raised three sons and three daughters. Although Aunt Lillian had teasingly invited Phoebe to have her pick of any of her robust and handsome sons, Phoebe had answered- quite truthfully- that such a union would have felt positively incestuous. The Marsden and the Challons had spent too many family holidays together and had known each other for too long for any romantic sparks to fly between their offspring.”
