There'd been a time, longer ago now than she could really consider, that by the time she turned twenty, Lucy was meant to be a engaged to a handsome soldier, a scholarship student at a prestigious college, living the kind of life that girls were supposed to dream of. That had changed, of course, before she'd gotten any of it; in retrospect, she ( Read more... )

The bookshelf didn't really agree with Don - he looked through it for a couple of minutes, testing it. It was full of tourist guides to Paris, which Don really didn't want to look at, thank you very much, but he could still learn some French to pass the time...
