Kim Harrison
"I gestured my frustration. “I don’t know. She’s much better already. She wasn’t talking half an hour ago.

hovered over her. Three were plating her long, fair hair and another was singing to her.
“Okay,” I said as we turned back. “Bad example.”"
Kim Harrison (Every Which Way But Dead)
