Alissa Johnson Quotes

After Mrs. Culpepper, Max Probably Knew More About Her Than Any Other Person In Her Life. They Were The Only Two People Who Knew Of Her Dream To Buy A Country Cottage. And He Was The Only One To Know Of Her Silly Wish For A Hound.

Which, Now That She Thought On It, Was A Sad State Of Affairs, Indeed. She Had No Better Claim To Friendship Outside Of Mrs. Culpepper Than A Man With Whom She'd Spent Such A Nominal Amount Of Time? And Who Had Been Read To Toss Her Bodily From Caldwell Manor Only Yesterday?

Surely She Had More Depth Of Character Than What Could Be Mined In The Course Of An Evening. She Did Not Begin And End With Her Dreams Of A Thousand Pounds, A Hound, And A Home. She Was Vastly More Complex, Far More Interesting Than That. She Had To Be. The Alternative Was Too Depressing To Entertain. Almost As Depressing As Never Having Known A Friend Who'd Not Been Paid To Keep Her Company. But That, At Least, Could Be Changed.
