Quotes by Julia Golding

“Ramil met Tashi's eyes with a mischievous look. "Now Wife we have a long voyage ahead of us with no interruptions, no affairs of state to sidetrack us." He brushed his fingers againist the lacings of her neck. "Isn't it time you returned that shirt to its owner?”
― Julia Golding, Dragonfly

"Oh, undoubtedly," murmed Ramil. "Do cast me out.”
