    “The three of you have one solution to every problem. Murder. No key fits every lock.” Cardan gives us all a stern look, holding up a long-fingered hand with my stolen ruby ring still on one finger. “Someone tries to betray the High King, murder.

    He grins up at me. “They missed.”

    Holly Black
    “Tell me again what you said at the revel,” he says, climbing over me, his body against mine.

    “What?” I can barely think.

    “That you hate me,” he says, his voice hoarse. “Tell me that you hate me.”

    “I hate you,” I say, the words coming out like a caress. I say it again, over and over. A litany. An enchantment. A ward against what I really feel. “I hate you. I hate you. I hate you.”

    He kisses me harder.

    “I hate you,” I breathe into his mouth. “I hate you so much that sometimes I can’t think of anything else.”
    Holly Black, The Wicked King

    Holly Black
    “His eyes are open, watching my flushed face, my ragged breathing. I try to stop myself from making embarrassing noises. It’s more intimate than the way he’s touching me, to be looked at like that. I hate that he knows what he’s doing and I don’t. I hate being vulnerable. I hate that I throw my head back, baring my throat. I hate the way I cling to him, the nails of one hand digging into his back, my thoughts splintering, and the single last thing in my head: that I like him better than I’ve ever liked anyone and that of all the things he’s ever done to me, making me like him so much is by far the worst.”
    Holly Black, The Wicked King

    Margaret Atwood
    “Male fantasies, male fantasies, is everything run by male fantasies? Up on a pedestal or down on your knees, it's all a male fantasy: that you're strong enough to take what they dish out, or else too weak to do anything about it. Even pretending you aren't catering to male fantasies is a male fantasy: pretending you're unseen, pretending you have a life of your own, that you can wash your feet and comb your hair unconscious of the ever-present watcher peering through the keyhole, peering through the keyhole in your own head, if nowhere else. You are a woman with a man inside watching a woman. You are your own voyeur.”
    Margaret Atwood, The Robber Bride

    Julia Quinn
    “His mouth captured hers, trying to show her with his kiss what he was still learning to express in words. He loved her. He worshipped her. He'd walk across fire for her. He—

    —still had the audience of her three brothers.

    Slowly breaking the kiss, he turned his face to the side. Anthony, Benedict, and Colin were still standing in the foyer. Anthony was studying the ceiling, Benedict was pretending to inspect his fingernails, and Colin was staring quite shamelessly.”
    Julia Quinn, The Duke and I

    “Captain?"
    "Yeah?"
    "Do you think it was destiny that brought us together?"
    He squinted and, after a thoughtful moment, shook his head. "No. I'm pretty sure it was Cinder.”
    Marissa Meyer, Cress

    Marissa Meyer
    “Captain,” she murmured.
    “I think I’m in love with you.”
    An eyebrow shot up. She counted six beats of his heart before, suddenly, he laughed.
    “Don’t tell me it took you two whole days to realize that. I must be losing my touch.”
    Marissa Meyer, Cress

    Lisa Kleypas
    “Every time you look at me, you'll remember that I'm half his."
    "No." His hand came to the side of her face, his thumb wiping her tears. "You're all mine." His voice was deep and shaken. "Every hair on your head. Every part of you was made to be loved by me.”
    Lisa Kleypas, Marrying Winterborne

    Lisa Kleypas
    “Helen,
    You ask if I regret our engagement.
    No. I regret every minute that you're out of my sight. I regret every step that doesn't bring me closer to you.
    My last thought each night is that you should be in my arms. There is no peace or pleasure in my empty bed, where I sleep with you only in dreams and wake to curse the dawn.
    If I had the right, I would forbid you to go anywhere without me. Not out of selfishness, but because being apart from you is like trying to live without breathing.
    Think on that. You've stolen my very breath, cariad. And now I'm left to count the days until I take it back from you, kiss by kiss.
    Winterborne”
    Lisa Kleypas, Marrying Winterborne
