If you said I was obsessed with the S

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

“No meant no, always. A non-answer to an unasked question also meant no. The only answer that meant yes was a yes, with both parties fully aware as to what that meant.”
Jackie North, The Trail Boss and the Brat

“Yes, of course,” said Derek, pleased to be able, at last, to give instead of to take.”
Jackie North, Heroes for Ghosts

“I love to be loved. I love to be nuzzled and kissed and treated like I’m made of bone china. That’s my big secret.”
Jackie North, A Farthingdale Christmas Compendium
