Quotes by Jodé Millman  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“She followed the highway across the bridge, comparing her own life to the river's flow, swift and steady. She'd weathered obstacles - near death, loss and betrayal - which were like the boulders protruding through the turbulent current. Those hurdles may have slowed her down, but they'd never beaten her”
Jode Susan Millman, Hooker Avenue

“Before Ryan's murder, she'd trusted the criminal justice system wholeheartedly. But that was before she'd almost lost everything she cherished. She couldn't face another attack on her integrity and professionalism without imperiling the fragile sanity she clung to like a life preserver”
Jode Susan Millman, Hooker Avenue

“The rules of professional conduct required a lawyer to represent his or her client to the best of his or her ability and abide by the client's decisions. Would she have used any legal means to exonerate a client, even if it meant endangering another attorney's license? Jessie feared her answer to the question. She was a litigator, a gladiator, like every other attorney. When representing her clients, she had done, and would do, everything legally permissible to protect them. Even if, like Jeremy, it meant catering to the whims of a madman”
Jode Susan Millman, Hooker Avenue
