My grandmother didn't like to talk about it and now everyone who might know anything is dead. I'm sure whatever happened to those girls would make a very scary story.(less)

But, the couple that stands out most in my mind are from a Rosemary Rogers book entitled Sweet Savage Love. Virginia (Ginny) Brandon and Steve Morgan were so passionate, raw and full of spirit. They overcame so many obstacles to be together and they were the reason I wanted to start writing my own stories with strong and fiery heroes and heroines. I re-read their first love scene (they were under a covered wagon and it was so sensual) at least once a year since I first read it in 1974. I would say they made quite an impression on me. (less)

NINETY-FIVE

This week I celebrated my aunt’s ninety-fifth birthday with her by doing a couple of her favorite things…eating pepperoni pizza from Pizza Hut and going to the park. She’s my mom’s younger sister and they were just a year a part in age. Although I’ve always been close to my aunt and spent as much time with her as possible, since mom passed away a year ago at the age of ninety-five, I’ve been makin

“Together? " Rose asked. "Are we -- together ?"

He took one of her hands--it seemed so small and fragile in his own large, rough hand. Her porcelain skin looked even paler against his.

" Ever since I first laid eyes on you, I knew that I had to make you my woman , It was a feeling that was stronger than anything I have ever known before, and I am a man who goes after what he wants." He pulled her close to him and let his gaze meet hers, as he added, " And, my Wild Rose , I want you.”
Veronica Blake

“What ? " Rose whispered. Her heart skipped a beat. " Did you just say l-love ?"

He chuckled. " Love," he repeated. " I know enough to be certain what that word means in your language."

Rose smiled as their gazes locked. " Yes, and it also means that we will find a way to be together--no matter what it takes."

" I love you , Wild Rose," White Owl said hoarsely before he stole away her breath with another intoxicating kiss.”
Veronica Blake

“White Owl turned to smile at her, and her heart began to beat wildly in her breast. For the rest of her life, she knew she would ride at his side across the vast western lands; their home would be wherever they spread their soft furs . . . and she would continue to pray that their people would all learn to live together in harmony someday. She thought of the beautiful child sleeping on her back. He was a combination of”
Veronica Blake, White Owl

“These violent delights have violent ends
And in their triumph die, like fire and powder,
Which as they kiss consume. The sweetest honey
Is loathsome in his own deliciousness
And in the taste confounds the appetite.
Therefore love moderately; long love doth so;
Too swift arrives as tardy as too slow.”
William Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet

“About three things I was absolutely positive. First, Edward was a vampire. Second, there was a part of him-and I didn’t know how potent that part might be-that thirsted for my blood. And third, I was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with him.”
Stephenie Meyer, Twilight

“Imagine me; I shall not exist if you do not imagine me; try to discern the doe in me, trembling in the forest of my own iniquity; let's even smile a little. After all, there is no harm in smiling.”
Vladimir Nabokov, Lolita

“Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!”
Hunter S. Thompson, The Proud Highway: Saga of a Desperate Southern Gentleman, 1955-1967
