Before Jesper was old enough to work the fields with his father, he’d been allowed to stay home with her. There was always laundry to be done, food to be made, wood to be chopped, and Jesper loved to help her. “How’s my land?” she’d ask every day when his father returned from the fields,  and later Jesper would  learn  that  the  farm  had  been in her name,  a wedding gift from his father, who had courted Aditi Hilli for nearly a year before she’d deigned to give him the time of day. “Blooming,” he’d say, kissing her cheek. “Just like you, love.”

“Many boys will bring you flowers. But someday you’ll meet a boy who will learn your favourite flower, your favourite song, your favourite sweet. And even if he is too poor to give you any of them, it won’t matter because he will have taken the time to know you as no one else does. Only that boy earns your heart.”

nina wished she had inej’s gift for spywork, or kaz’s gift for scheming, but she only seemed to have jesper’s gift for bad decisions
