Is there anything that doesn’t piss you off?”

“Yeah, flowers and sunshine. But there’s none of that to be found since this world fell into a hellhole, so you won’t see me cracking rainbow smiles or going easy on you anytime soon.”

I squirmed in his hold, but it didn’t take me long to give up. His grip was too strong. My arms laced around his neck and I glared up at him. “That sounds more like you having your way until you decide to let me have mine.”

“Yeah, that’s about right.”

“I don’t want you to carry me.”

“Well, what you want and what’s actually going to happen are two very different realities.”

“What kind of convoluted crap is that?”

“True convoluted crap. Now stop busting my balls and let me carry you.”

I sighed, making sure it was long and overly dramatic.

I was about to say that we all hurt the ones we love. That we can’t help it and that for some reason, we’re just defective like that. Maybe because those we love most bring out the very best and the worst in us, and in some twisted way, we resist that magic.Rachael Wade

“Don't start that again. It's not my fault you don't have any masculine aprons."

"That's because aprons aren't masculine, genius."

"Don't make me have you for dinner, princess."

"Whatever, Betty Crocker. Knock yourself out.”
Rachael Wade, Amaranth

“The second he slipped inside of me, all I'd doubted, questioned, or feared evaporated, leaving me with one single, definite truth--I'd fallen in love with him in an all-consuming blaze that would blind me if I wasn't careful. We fit together like poorly cut puzzle pieces, but when the edges joined and were positioned just right, our scattered images came together to create a solid, deliberate piece of art, completely crystal clear and in focus. I was a goner.”
Rachael Wade, Preservation

“Do you really want to put yourself through this? Is loving me really enough to endure everything you have to just to be with me?"

Meeting his fiery gaze, I ran my fingers through his hair, kissed him gently before I attempted to set us both free.

"It will always be enough.”
Rachael Wade, Amaranth

Hey Latochia, I'm so glad you're looking forward to it! Re-reading the first two will definitely help refresh your memory for the third. :) I usually try to re-read the first book in a series before the next comes out myself. October will be here before you know it...

I was up until 4am reading Fifty Shades this morning.. then I finished it and went straight to Preservation.. now that's finished and my head hurts from trying to figure out what to read next! :D

LOL Oh man, I told you it was fantastic! I actually can't believe you're not going straight to Fifty Shades Darker! I was about to combust at the end of #1, waiting for the release nearly killed me. Well, happy reading and I know you'll just love the rest of the series. #2 is the best IMO. :)

Hey Cassandra, thanks for accepting. I'm so glad you enjoyed it! I definitely had fun writing the characters in this installment.

There's no release date set for the 3rd book yet, but it looks like it will be some time in the fall. As soon as I have a better idea, I'll post an announcement on my blog and Facebook. :)
