Quotes by Maureen McKade (?)

“How was she to endure knowing he was in town these next two weeks, without throwing herself into his arms again? She would hide in her home and not come out until the day of the wedding. Yes, that was the only solution.”
― Maureen McKade, Outlaw's Bride

“She forced herself to hold his gaze. Why couldn’t she stop caring? Why did her belly still flutter with anticipation at his presence? Clint took a step toward her. “Are you certain about this, Mattie?” he asked, his voice low and intense.”
― Maureen McKade, Outlaw's Bride

“Clint appeared startled. “You didn’t have to do that, Mrs. St. Clair. I could’ve waited until you weren’t so busy.” “Then you would’ve waited forever,” she said wryly. “There’s always something to be done around here.”
― Maureen McKade, Outlaw's Bride
