“It doesn't matter. What's done is done. The question is whether you're going to let it define you.”
Dana Delamar, Redemption

“You're supposed to be my friend. At least that's what I thought."

"What kind of a friend would I be if I agreed with everything that came out of your mouth?”
Dana Delamar, Redemption

“Do you know why Lorenzo Andretti has lived so long? The man must have a list of enemies from here to Calabria. But nobody goes after him. Why?"

"Because he's smart."

"Because he's always planning. He never stops. He never rests. He never relents. He is merciless. And when he sets his sights on something, he gets it.”
Dana Delamar, Redemption

“Do one thing every day that scares you.”
Eleanor Roosevelt

“I know logically that I can live without him, but loving him has become such an integral, necessary part of my life; I am not sure I could stop, even if we parted.”
Anna Bayes, Under His Wings

“People who label erotica writers as sluts/men-whores remind me of the mob that once condemned smart women as witches. Mankind has not evolved much.”
Anna Bayes

“Colpo di fulmine. The thunderbolt, as Italians call it. When love strikes someone like lightning, so powerful and intense it can’t be denied. It’s beautiful and messy,
cracking a chest open and spilling their soul out for the world to see. It turns a person inside out, and there’s no going back from it. Once the thunderbolt hits, your life is
irrevocably changed.”
J.M. Darhower, Sempre

“It is spring again. The earth is like a child that knows poems by heart.”
Rainer Maria Rilke

Thanks so much, Stephanie! I *really* appreciate you doing that, and I'm so glad you enjoyed the book. Could I ask a favor? Can you also post your review on Amazon? I could definitely use more reviews out there.

I'll let you know when Book 2 comes out (I'm aiming for April). Thanks again! :)


Stephanie I posted my review of 'Revenge' on here and on smashwords. I LOVED it; thank you so much for giving me the chance to read it. :-)
