" It is not a relationship that should provoke displays of inordinate emotion. I myself greatly dislike conflict in the household. I trust that we can avoid all manner of unpleasant scenes by making ourselves quite clear before we say our vows. In short, she didn’t love him, she didn’t care to ever love him, and she thought love within marriage was rot. "

― Eloisa James , Once Upon a Tower (Fairy Tales, #5)
