Jackie Haze
“Moreover, we were to each other aspects of a dream unrealized. I emblemized the excitement of freedom, a life untethered by the confines of constructs.

We were standing in different places, yet the same, seeing within each other a sense of truth within the lies, a radiant light that illuminated the dark.”

within the confines of these walls,
away from the rage of metal.”

Christi Caldwell
“I do love to waltz, you know.”
Actually he hadn’t. What else did he not know about the woman he’d married?
“The evenings that seemed unending. The magnificent gowns. I thought how much I loved the thrill of it all.” She lifted her gaze from her book. “Until I was sent away to the country and came to find a freedom that existed outside the confines of London. Joy driven by your own interests and not what Society believes your interests should be. Wagering. Waltzing. Shopping. What is the purpose of all that?”
― Christi Caldwell, The Lure of a Rake
