Sandra Brown Quotes
I have no personal knowledge of, or experience with, paramilitary hate groups, or heart transplantation, or escapees from maximum security prisons, or what it's like to be profoundly deaf.

As I approach my keyboard each day, I remind myself to have a good time - as good a time as one can have doing the hardest work there is.
