Subject: QOTD for Saturday, May 18, 2024

The following quote is from Written in My Own Heart’s Blood, chapter 24, “Welcome Coolness in the Heat, Comfort in the Midst of Woe.” Copyright ©️ 2014 by Diana Gabaldon, all rights reserved.

“‘Ask me to your bed,’ he said, breathless, hands on my arms. ‘I shall come to ye. For that matter—I shall come, whether ye ask it or no. But remember, Sassenach—I am your man; I serve ye as I will.’
‘Do,’ I said. ‘Please do. Jamie, I want you so!’
He seized my arse in both hands, hard enough to leave bruises, and I arched up into him, grasping, hands sliding on his sweat-slick skin.
‘God, Claire, I need ye!’
Rain was roaring on the tin roof now, and lightning struck close by, blue-white and sharp with ozone. We rode it together, forked and light-blind, breathless, and the thunder rolled through our bones.”

[> I couldn’t remember exactly when this happened so I read the chapter title and it struck me how beautiful that thought is; comfort in the midst of woe. Thank you, Cindy, for a week of “hump days!” -- Kathy in PA, Sun, May 19 2024, 4:29:31

[> This week's quotes were a reminder that DG's sex scenes are so much more than "Insert Tab A into Slot B, repeat as necessary." Wow! -- DianaH, Mon, May 20 2024, 10:20:46
