Blind Date with a Book Boyfriend

by Lucy Eden

“Well, I’m honored to be your first.”

I was trying to be charming, not creepy.”

I’ve read enough romance novels to think that this was a great idea, but I’ve also listened to enough episodes of My Favorite Murder to think the exact opposite.

I wonder if this is how it feels when you meet the person you will eventually fall in love with, or when you meet the person who is about to murder you.

“I was wondering if you were a serial killer,”

There’s never a right time, a perfect amount of money, or an instruction manual. There’s only love and everything in life is an unpredictable leap of faith.”

“Nice means I’m sober enough to consent to a sexual encounter but tipsy enough that I don’t care that I’m wearing giant gray cotton underwear that may or may not have a hole in them.”

I’m way overdue for a spa appointment. It’s like 1976 down there.”

“I don’t know if we’re in love, but I know whenever I’m with you, I’m really happy, and when I’m not with you, I’m really sad.”
