    Sarah J. Maas
    “I moaned then, tilting my head back to give him better access. His hands clamped on my waist, then moved—one going to cup my rear, the other sliding between us.
    This—this moment, when it was him and me and nothing between our bodies …
    His tongue scraped the roof of my mouth as he dragged a finger down the center of me, and I gasped, my back arching. “Feyre,” he said against my lips, my name like a prayer more devout than any Ianthe had offered up to the Cauldron on that dark solstice morning.
    His tongue swept my mouth again, in time to the finger that he slipped inside of me. My hips undulated, demanding more, craving the fullness of him, and his growl reverberated in my chest as he added another finger.
    I moved on him. Lightning lashed through my veins, and my focus narrowed to his fingers, his mouth, his body on mine. His palm pushed against the bundle of nerves at the apex of my thighs, and I groaned his name as I shattered”
    Sarah J. Maas, A Court of Mist and Fury

    “Please,” I gasped out.
    He just brushed his lips against my jaw, my neck, my mouth.
    “Tamlin,” I begged. He palmed my breast, his thumb flicking over my nipple. I cried out, and he buried himself in me with a mighty stroke.
    For a moment, I was nothing, no one.
    Then we were fused, two hearts beating as one, and I promised myself it always would be that way as he pulled out a few inches, the muscles of his back flexing beneath my hands, and then slammed back into me. Again and again.
    I broke and broke against him as he moved, as he murmured my name and told me he loved me. And when that lightning once more filled my veins, my head, when I gasped out his name, his own release found him. I gripped him through each shuddering wave, savoring the weight of him, the feel of his skin, his strength.
    For a while, only the rasp of our breathing filled the room.
    I frowned as he withdrew at last—but he didn’t go far. He stretched out on his side, head propped on a fist, and traced idle circles on my stomach, along my breasts.”

    “Tamlin let out a low snarl of approval, and I bit my bottom lip as he removed his pants, along with his undergarments, revealing the proud, thick length of him. My mouth went dry, and I dragged my gaze up his muscled torso, over the panes of his chest, and then—
    “Come here,” he growled, so roughly the words were barely discernable.
    I pushed back the blankets, revealing my already naked body, and he hissed.”
    Sarah J. Maas, A Court of Mist and Fury

    “If I can't do it. . . I'll just die.
    But if I win, I live.

    Dean Koontz
    “Love is absorbing, related to affection but stronger, full of appreciation for—and delight in—the other person, marked by a desire always to please and benefit her or him, always to smooth the loved one’s way through the roughness of the days and to do everything possible to make her or him feel profoundly valued.”
    Dean Koontz, Innocence

    Lauren Oliver
    “Maybe you can afford to wait. Maybe for you there's a tomorrow. Maybe for you there's one thousand tomorrows, or three thousand, or ten, so much time you can bathe in it, roll around it, let it slide like coins through you fingers. So much time you can waste it.
    But for some of us there's only today. And the truth is, you never really know.”
    Lauren Oliver, Before I Fall

    “I never thought about it before, but I'm proud to be human. We're ever so flawed. We're frail, confused, violent, and we struggle with so many issues. But all in all, I'm proud to be a Daughter of Man.”
    Susan Ee, Angelfall

    “I spent my life folded between the pages of books.
    In the absence of human relationships I formed bonds with paper characters. I lived love and loss through stories threaded in history; I experienced adolescence by association. My world is one interwoven web of words, stringing limb to limb, bone to sinew, thoughts and images all together. I am a being comprised of letters, a character created by sentences, a figment of imagination formed through fiction.”
    Tahereh Mafi, Shatter Me

    “An animal?" Thorne said, and she realized he'd been waiting for her to further explain what she was seeing.
    "It has long legs and horns and...and it's beautiful."
    "Oh, good, we're back to this, then.”

    You usually can’t recall all the people you’ve shared laughs with. But you rarely forget the people you’ve shared your tears with.

    Mya Robarts
    When someone has gifted you with one act of love after another, it’s only fair to ignore their bad moods and concentrate exclusively in the many things they’ve done for you. Acts and feelings should always prevail over moods and words.

    “I’ve put my life at risk for others ever since I joined the Army. It’d be a nice change to risk my life for something I want for me." His humorless face smolders. "I crave you.”

    “If as we see nightfall,
    we become capable of accepting love,
    let’s celebrate an alliance with our unbroken delusions.
    Who ever knew we would say goodbye to oblivion?
    Who ever knew we would accept hope?”

    Veronica Roth
    “I fell in love with him. But I don't just stay with him by default as if there's no one else available to me. I stay with him because I choose to, every day that I wake up, every day that we fight or lie to each other or disappoint each other. I choose him over and over again, and he chooses me.”
    Veronica Roth, Allegiant

  • #23
    Veronica Roth
    “There are so many ways to be brave in this world. Sometimes bravery involves laying down your life for something bigger than yourself, or for someone else. Sometimes it involves giving up everything you have ever known, or everyone you have ever loved, for the sake of something greater.

    But sometimes it doesn't.

    Sometimes it is nothing more than gritting your teeth through pain, and the work of every day, the slow walk toward a better life.

    That is the sort of bravery I must have now.”
    Veronica Roth, Allegiant

    “I have better things to do.”
    “Like what?”
    He opens one eye and looks at me. “Like convince a stubborn girl to admit she’s madly in love with me.”

    “So if it’s not a pig farm that you want, what is it?” he asks.
    I swallow. “How about a safe place to live where we don’t have to scrounge for food or fight for it?”
    “It’s yours.”
    “That’s it? All I have to do is ask?”
    “No. There’s a price for everything.”
    “I knew it. What is it?”
    “Me.”
    Susan Ee, End of Days

    “If you're worried about pervs breaking into the house, it's not going to make a difference whether I'm in this outfit or in baggy jeans and a sweatshirt. Either they're decent human beings or they're not. Their actions are on them.”
    Susan Ee, End of Days

    “Who knew? I had no idea that someone could be such a thorn in your foot during a death march and still be irresistibly attractive in some magical, undeniable way."
    "So is this what people call sweet nothings? Because somehow, I expected it to be a little more...complementary.”
    Susan Ee, End of Days

    Susan Ee
    “And if there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s that trying to make someone stay with you when he doesn’t want to is a recipe for heartbreak.”

    Cassandra Clare
    “My name is Herondale," the boy said cheerfully. "William Herondale, but everyone calls me Will. Is this really your room? Not very nice, is it?" He wandered toward the window, pausing to examine the stacks of books on her bedside table, and then the bed itself. He waved a hand at the ropes. "Do you often sleep tied to the bed?”
    Cassandra Clare, Clockwork Angel
