“It is said you are the woman who holds all of London in the palm of her hand."
"Perhaps not all of London, Your Grace, but a fortunate few have indeed felt the palm of my hand.”
― The Courtesan Duchess

“How much do you have in common with this guy?”
“Not much. Basically we’re polar opposites. But do you want to know the main attraction, the weird part? . . . It’s the talking.”
“Talking about what?”
“About anything,” I said earnestly. “We get started and it’s like sex, this back-and-forth, and we’re both so there, do you know what I mean? We rattle each other. And some conversations seem to be happening on a few different levels at once. But even when we’re disagreeing on something, there’s a weird kind of harmony in it. A connection.”
