Dreams of the Queen Quotes

“Was this love in its purest form, unrequited yet all-consuming and unselfish?”
― Jacqueline Patricks, Dreams of the Queen

“Feral beauty tangled up and over every surface. Enormous vines and flourishing blooms swathed the area creating a shadowy, organic cathedral. A faint whiff of perfume breezed to her, like jasmine, but sweeter, more delicate—if jasmine could be more delicate without losing its scent entirely. The buzzing of alien insects reminded her of the sticky, summer days of her childhood in the South, and cicadas filled her memory with their incessant mating calls. Here, however, the insects grew louder as it grew darker. It seemed even they understood the dangers of daylight.”
― Jacqueline Patricks, Dreams of the Queen
