“I was drinking in the surroundings: air so crisp you could snap it with your fingers and greens in every lush shade imaginable offset by autumnal flashes of red and yellow.”
Wendy Delsol, Stork

“Though I wondered what she ever made of my professed love for and intentions to marry Big Bird, the hottie of Sesame Street.”
Wendy Delsol, Stork

“He laughed and then leaned in and kissed my neck. It was our second kiss. Yes, I was counting. And no, I didn't want it on the neck. "Do you want to hear more?"
"We live, right? Because it's not looking very good."
He laughed again, and I knew in that instant it was a sound I wouldn't want to live without.”
Wendy Delsol, Stork
