She Hadn't Wanted To Be

She Was The Sort Of Person For Whom Fear Was The Natural Response To That Beyond Explanation.

She Says There Are Stories Everywhere And That People Who Wait For The Right One To Come Along Before Setting Pen To Paper End Up With Very Empty Pages.

Quite Simply The Book And I Were Meant To Be Together.

To Abandon A Child, She Had Once Said To Someone, When She Thought Cassandra Couldn't Hear, Was An Act So Cold, So Careless, It Refused Forgiveness.

She Hadn't Wanted To Be Loved Carefully, Only Well.
