" I say seduce her, seduce her tonight. Break the door down if you have to. Tell her all those things you said to me about her. You will love her more tomorrow than today and how you want to die with her hand in yours–which is an excellent line, by the way, that I fully intend to borrow when the time comes. "

― Victoria Alexander , His Mistress by Christmas (Mistress Trio, #2; Sinful Family Secrets, #1)
