Sweet Girl Quotes

“I always thought our relationships were stronger than those of regular siblings because we didn't have a blood obligation to love each other; we chose to, which is way more powerful.”
― Rachel Hollis, Sweet Girl

“Ah, there she was, the woman in yellow who must be Mrs. Croxon. All Peg's senses quickened. What a beanpole, she crowed to herself- stooped shoulders, gown ill-fitting. Why, she looked a born bleater- no match at all for Peg Blissett. She picked up her borrowed ladle, went downstairs, and sauntered over to the new mistress of Delafosse Hall. Then, gathering all her sweetness, Peg smiled at Mrs. Croxon.
The woman responded with a slight bow of her head, and then said, so quietly that Peg could barely hear her, "I see by the ladle you must be a cook. Am I led to believe-are you-"
Mrs. Croxon had a nasty rash, and slovenly-dressed hair. But looking more closely she was not so ill-looking. And her voice was so pleasant and genteel that Peg couldn't stop herself aping it.”
― Martine Bailey, A Taste for Nightshade

“It was nuts that after a year and a half of being casual work acquaintances, we'd ended up all over each other after a few whiskeys and croissants. But hey, I'm not complaining. I've always had a crush on Joelle. From the minute I met her when I opened Stacked next door to her bakery, I couldn't get her out of my head. She was so kind and welcoming. And so fucking pretty. I'm a sucker for a sexy and sweet girl in glasses, and that's exactly what she is.”
― Sarah Echavarre Smith, The Boy With the Bookstore
