“What I loved about romances was the character, and I think I still bring that to my novels. What romance taught me was that the 'who' will always matter more than the 'what.' It's fun to come up with plots, but I want to make sure the reader cares about who it's happening to.”
“If I had to resign every time the Cabinet disagrees with me, I could not last as a Defense Minister one week.”
