    "Valhalla on the right. Paradise regained on the left. Stuck between a Godiva truffle and a chocolate eclair. Between a rock and a very hard place. Two very hard places from the looks of it."
    Karen Marie Moning (Beyond the Highland Mist)


  • Ilona Andrews
    "“Yes. What is it, guilt, revenge, love, what?”
    I swallowed. “I live alone.”
    “And your point is?”
    “You have the Pack. You’re surrounded by people who would fall over themselves for the pleasure of
    your company. I have no one. My parents are dead, my entire family is gone. I have no friends. Except
    Jim, and that’s more of a working relationship than anything else. I have no lover. I can’t even have a pet,
    because I’m not at the house often enough to keep it from starving. When I come crawling home,
    bleeding and filthy and exhausted, the house is dark and empty. Nobody keeps the porch light on for me.
    Nobody hugs me and says, ‘Hey, I’m glad you made it. I’m glad you’re okay. I was worried.’ Nobody
    cares if I live or die. Nobody makes me coffee, nobody holds me before I go to bed, nobody fixes my
    medicine when I’m sick. I’m by myself.""
    Ilona Andrews (Magic Burns)


  • Janet Evanovich
    "Romance novels are birthday cake and life is often peanut butter and jelly. I think everyone should have lots of delicious romance novels lying around for those times when the peanut butter of life gets stuck to the roof of your mouth."

    "One day you will kiss a man you can't breathe without, and find that breath is of little consequence."
    Karen Marie Moning (Bloodfever)


  • Karen Marie Moning
    "I love books, by the way, way more than movies. Movies tell you what to think. A good book lets you choose a few thoughts for yourself. Movies show you the pink house. A good book tells you there's a pink house and lets you paint some of the finishing touches, maybe choose the roof style,park your own car out front. My imagination has always topped anything a movie could come up with. Case in point, those darned Harry Potter movies. That was so not what that part-Veela-chick, Fleur Delacour, looked like."
    Karen Marie Moning (Darkfever)


  • Karen Marie Moning
    "Last night you said you wanted to know what to expect so you could better select your attire. I told you
    we were going to visit a vampire in a Goth-den tonight. Why, then, Ms. Lane, do you look like a perky
    rainbow?"
    Karen Marie Moning (Darkfever)


  • Stephenie Meyer
    "Even more, I had never meant to love him. One thing I truly knew - knew it in the pit of my stomach, in the center of my bones, knew it from the crown of my head to the soles of my feet, knew it deep in my empty chest - was how love gave someone the power to break you.
    I'd been broken beyond repair."
    Stephenie Meyer (New Moon)

    "I went to the door, and Gary tried hard not to notice I was blue. He looked at his feet, and he looked above my head, and he cleared his throat.

    'It's okay,' I said. 'I know I'm blue.'

    'It caught me by surprise,' he said. 'I didn't want to seem rude.'"
    Janet Evanovich (Fearless Fourteen)


  • Janet Evanovich
    "I looked over at him. 'Is that a proposal?'

    There was total silence for a couple beats. 'I'm not sure. It just popped out.'

    'Would you say yes?' Morelli asked.

    'I'm not sure.'"

    "Fine. Let Ranger get someone else. Trust me, you don't want to be out looking for a parking place on Sloane in the middle of the night."

    I won't have to look for a parking place. Tank's picking me up.

    Your working with a guy name Tank?

    He's big.

    Jesus, Morelli said. I had to fall in love with a woman who works with a guy named Tank.

    You love me?

    Of course i love you. I just don't want to marry you."

    ""Give me the gun." Ranger said.
    I extracted the gun from my pants and handed it over.
    Ranger held the gun in the pulm of his hand and smiled. "It's warm," he said. He put the gun in the glove compartment and plugged the key into the ignition.
    "Am I fired?"
    "No. Any women who can heat up a gun like that is worth keeping around.""

  • Janet Evanovich
    ""That was close,"he said, helping himself to coffee.
    "Yeah, you almost opened the door to Morelli."
    "I wasn't talking about Morelli. I was talking about us."
    "That too," I said.
    Ranger sliced a bagel and looked for the toaster.
    "It's broken,"I told him.
    He truned the boiler on and slid the bagel into the oven.
    "That's surprisingly domestic for a man of mystery," I said to him.
    He looked at me over the rim of his coffee mug. "I like things hot.""

    "Ranger locked eyes with me. "Please," he said.
    Tank and Hal were goggle-eyed. They weren't used to "please." I wasn't used to it either. But I liked it.
    "Okay," I said. "Be careful. He's insane.""
    Janet Evanovich


  • Janet Evanovich
    "The elevator doors opened, and Ranger stepped out and spied Tank stretched out on the carpet.
    "Fainted," I said.
    Ranger walked to Tank and stood hands on hips, staring down at him. "Tank doesn't faint. I've been in firefights with him. He's a rock."
    "Well, the rock fainted.""
    Janet Evanovich (Fearless Fourteen)


  • Janet Evanovich
    "He [Ranger] peeled my [Stephanie] clothes off and wrangled me into bed. And then suddenly he was inside me. He once told me that time spent with him would ruin me for all other men. When he said it, I thought it was an outrageous threat. I no longer though it outrageous."

    "The front door flew open, and Mary shot out of the house, jumping off the porch, not even bothering with the steps to the ground. She ran over the frost-laden grass in her bare feet and threw herself at him, grabbing on to his neck with both arms. She held him so tightly his spine cracked.

    She was sobbing. Bawling. Crying so hard her whole body was shaking.

    He didn't ask any questions, just wrapped himself around her.

    "I'm not okay," she said hoarsely between breaths. "Rhage...I'm not okay.""
    J.R. Ward

    “With her? Sometimes?”

    “Huh. You getting anything from anyone else?”

    “Nope.”

    Red Sox repositioned his hat. “Well, ah…let me know if you pick up shit from me, k? There are some things that I’d prefer to keep private, feel me?”

    “Roger that. Although I can’t help it sometimes.”

    “Which is why I’m going to take up thinking about baseball when you’re around.”

    “Thank fuck you’re not a Yankees fan.”

    “Don’t use the Y-word. We’re in mixed company.”
    "

    "You so need to lighten up about that potato-launcher incident," Butch said.

    J.R. Ward (Lover Unbound)

    "But you'll always be Butch to us," Rhage cut in. "As well as hard-ass. Smart-ass. Royal pain in the ass. You know, whatever the situation calls for. I think as long as there's an ASS in there, it'll be accurate."

    "How about bASStard?" Z suggested.

    "Nice. I feel that."
    J.R. Ward (Lover Revealed)


  • Diana Gabaldon
    "I prayed all the way up that hill yesterday, he said softly. Not for you to stay; I didna think that would be right. I prayed I'd be strong enough to send ye away. He shook his head, still gazing up the hill, a faraway look in his eyes.
    I said 'Lord, if I've never had courage in my life before, let me have it now. Let me be brave enough not to fall on my knees and beg her to stay.' He pulled his eyes away from the cottage and smiled briefly at me.
    Hardest thing I ever did, Sassenach."

    I didn’t get a chance to answer before the shop door was thrown open and a furious war mage stomped in. Pritkin spotted me and his eyes narrowed.

    "She understood now why her friend Elizabeth, with her near-genius, analytical mind gave wide berth to murder mysteries, psychological thrillers, and horror stories, and read only romance novels. Because, by God, when a woman picked up one of those steamy books, she had a firm guarantee that there would be a Happily-Ever-After. That though the world outside those covers could bring such sorrow and disappointment and loneliness, between those covers, the world was a splendid place to be."
