Quotes by Emma James (?)

“I’m Dallas ‘Edge’ Masson, the Soulless Bastards MC’s enforcer. I’m a killer, and I’m fucking good at it. I make no bones about that. If you are on my radar, or the Soulless Bastards’, then you’d better start praying.”
― Emma James, Wrenched

“Cat got your tongue? Sounds like I'm going to have to do the talking because you are sitting there like you have a thousand questions but don't know how to ask one. Now, pay attention, I'm only taking this guided tour once. You snooze, you lose. I'm going to move my hand so you can see that this bad boy moves.”

“Text, here, is rather light on words these days, honey. He's every librarian's dream. My good buddy hasn't breathed a word in six years. He's the reigning champion of 'who-can-shut-up-the-longest.' He gets a gold star for his efforts.”

“I'll wait for you at the top of the stairs. Chivalry is not lost on me. I'll make sure you don't go ass up going down them. That swoon of yours was very Scarlet O'Hara.”

“She isn't a little ten-year-old girl anymore. Those black, lace boy panties are just too damn sexy. I'm starting to harden again.
Not now, Woody. Down, boy!”

“I badly want to talk to the guys, yet I can't.
I can't make the words come out. It scares the hell out of me to even think about speaking to one of the guys. I keep myself busy, but the world in my head can be so loud some days.”
