-Katherine Ayers/about the author in the back of the book
"And you are not my family? Innocenza Maria Moretti! You are not the child of my body, no. But bella mia---you are the child of my heart. My own girls and boys, I love them, yes. Each one is beautiful to me. But you---with your brave heart and all alone in the world---you I love in a special way.
