Being a parent is not for the faint of heart. I may joke about knowing fear, but the fact is, the first time I ever knew real fear was the day Charlotte, my first child, was born. Suddenly there is someone in the world you care about more than anything. – Harlan Coben
Losing my parents was the most crushing thing that ever happened to me. I lost my dad when I was 26, and it changed my life entirely. – Harlan Coben
