To Sir Phillip, With Love (Bridgertons, #5)

by Julia Quinn

“My children never disappoint me,” she said softly. “They merely . . . astonish me. I believe I like it that way.”

“I always loved everything about you, of course, but for some reason I always found your impatience especially charming. It was never because you wanted more, it was because you wanted everything.”

“But don’t let your impatience become all that you are,” Violet said softly. “Because it isn’t, you know. There’s a great deal more to you, but I think sometimes you forget that.”

“I hope you are well. Please remember that you are my daughter and you will always be my daughter. I love you.”
