Blossom in Winter (Blossom in Winter, #1)

by Melanie Martins

“I’d like to start by saying to everyone: do not delay happiness.”

“Some people think happiness is only attainable once they achieve something, like a promotion, a better job, a house, kids… but no. Happiness doesn’t happen because of achievements. Happiness is built and lived every single day of our lives when we are with the ones we love and cherish. So don’t be afraid to love, my dear friends. And do not be afraid to be happy.”

I reach for her at that instant, starving to feel her lips on mine again. I can’t hold myself back anymore. Or my heart. She belongs to me. She finally told me.

“You are curious. Very curious. I love it. Never stop being curious, Ms. Van Gatt. Curiosity is what makes life exciting.”
