    “Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind.”
    Bernard M. Baruch

    Linda Kage
    “Sometimes, the Lord just takes blessed people because they've filled their purpose early. Everyone plays their own song. They sing their story to the world and leave behind a melody of memories. Sometimes... their song is cut short and ends too early. But that doesn't mean their music was any less sweet or that they left any less of an impression.”
    Linda Kage, The Stillburrow Crush

    Miranda Stowe
    “She reached out, her fingers hesitant. The deer—Knox—tilted his head down, letting her touch his antlers. Her hand trembled slightly as she caressed the boney protrusion. The ivory tines were warmer than she thought they’d be, a living extension of the man inside. She petted his pelt next, charmed by the coarse fur and the feel of his muscles bunching and moving underneath.

    Sitting back, she winked up at him. "You probably get this a lot,but…nice rack.”

    The deer flashed back into a man who tackled her onto her pillows with a wolfy growl. “Always gotta be the smartass, don’t you?”
    Miranda Stowe, Dreams of Wolf

    Elizabeth Hoyt
    “Why?” he whispered as he leaned over her, supported on one arm. “Why must ye be the one that haunts me dreams? I’ve seen ye weepin’ night after bloody night since the day I sent ye from me palace with yer dress half undone. If I had it to do over again, I’d cut me own right hand off rather than hurt ye so. Will ye never be able to forgive me, Silence love?”

    “I already have,” she replied, cradling his cheek in her hand. “Long, long ago.”
    Elizabeth Hoyt, Scandalous Desires

    Lisa Kleypas
    “I want you any way I can get you. Not because you’re beautiful or clever or kind or adorable, although devil knows you’re all those things. I want you because there’s no one else like you, and I don’t ever want to start a day without seeing you.”
    Lisa Kleypas, Tempt Me at Twilight

    Cindy Bonner
    “And I don't believe in such a thing as "happily ever after". There's only happily every now and then. I find the hardest trick is to recognize the now-and-thens, and to bask in them when they come. Happiness is a choice we make, like how to wear our hair, or having coffee with breakfast and tea at night.”
    Cindy Bonner, The Passion of Dellie O'Barr

  • #9
    Marie Rose Dufour
    “Inch by tantalizing inch, he brought the shirt up exposing his six pack abs. Kim’s mouth went dry as more and more of his chest was revealed to her view. Her tongue ran over her parched lips. All she could think about was licking something off those abs. It could have been poison and she would have gladly licked it and begged for more.”
    Marie Rose Dufour

    Linda Kage, The Stillburrow Crush

  • #11
    “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

  • #12
    “All I ever wanted was to reach out and touch another human being not just with my hands but with my heart.”
    Tahereh Mafi, Shatter Me

  • #13
    Tammara Webber
    “Love is not the absence of logic
    but logic examined and recalculated
    heated and curved to fit
    inside the contours of the heart”
    Tammara Webber, Easy

    Friedrich Nietzsche
    “It is not a lack of love, but a lack of friendship that makes unhappy marriages.”
    Friedrich Nietzsche

    Linda Kage
    “Hey, where are you going?" His voice, confused yet curious, called after me. "Hey. Why didn't your mother name you Maybe, or We'll see, or What's-Your-Number? That way, we could call our first born Absolutely.”
    Linda Kage, The Color of Grace

    Jamie McGuire

    that there was something about you I needed. Turns out it
    wasn’t something about you at all. It was just you.”
    Jamie McGuire, Beautiful Disaster

    Sheng Wang
    “A friend said to me, “Hey you need to grow a pair. Grow a pair, Bro.” It’s when someone calls you weak, but they associate it with a lack of testicles. Which is weird, because testicles are the most sensitive things in the world. If you suddenly just grew a pair, you’d be a lot more vulnerable. If you want to be tough, you should lose a pair. If you want to be real tough, you should grow a vagina. Those things can take a pounding.”
    Sheng Wang

    Colleen Hoover
    “I’m pretty sure it’s too soon to love her, but shit. She’s got to stop doing and saying these unexpected things that make me want to fast-forward whatever’s going on between us. Because I want to kiss her and make love to her and marry her and make her have my babies and I want it all to happen tonight
    Colleen Hoover, Losing Hope

    Jennifer L. Armentrout
    “I want to get to know every freckle and every curve on a personal level.”

    “I think you did that last night.”

    “Nah.” He shook his head. “That was just a meet and greet. I want to know their hopes and dreams.”
    Jennifer L. Armentrout, Origin

  • #23
    Colleen Hoover
    “She takes a step toward me and slides her hands between my folded arms, pushing against them until they unlock. “Daniel Wesley you owe me a do-over since you made me kiss you in a crowded restaurant right next to a dirty diaper.”
    “It wasn’t crowded,” I interject.
    She glares at me. “Put your hands on my face and push me against this wall and slip me some tongue! Now!”
    Before she can laugh at herself, my hands are casing her face and her back is pressed against the wall of her house and my mouth is on hers.”
    Colleen Hoover, Finding Cinderella

  • #24
    Colleen Hoover
    “You talk to him about the fact that we haven't had sex?" Six says, completely embarrassed.

    My father shakes his head. "No, he doesn't have to. I know because every night he comes home he goes straight to his bedroom and takes a thirty-minute shower. I was eighteen once."

    Six covers her face with her hands. "Oh, my God." She peeks through her hands at my dad. "I guess I know who Daniel gets his personality from."

    My father nods. "Tell me about it. His mother is terribly inappropriate.”
    Colleen Hoover, Finding Cinderella

    William W. Purkey
    “You've gotta dance like there's nobody watching,
    Love like you'll never be hurt,
    Sing like there's nobody listening,
    And live like it's heaven on earth.”
    William W. Purkey

    Jarod Kintz
    “I had a dream about you. Flowers were overflowing in the cemetery, so we decided to have a picnic there. You brought apple pie, and I brought my Aunt Mildred, who’d been dead for some time and I just hadn’t gotten around to disposing of her body. I thought you’d think me both efficient and romantic, but it turns out you didn’t. You only saw the romantic side of my action.”
    Jarod Kintz, Dreaming is for lovers

    John Green
    “There are infinite numbers between 0 and 1. There's .1 and .12 and .112 and an infinite collection of others. Of course, there is a bigger infinite set of numbers between 0 and 2, or between 0 and a million. Some infinities are bigger than other infinities. A writer we used to like taught us that. There are days, many of them, when I resent the size of my unbounded set. I want more numbers than I'm likely to get, and God, I want more numbers for Augustus Waters than he got. But, Gus, my love, I cannot tell you how thankful I am for our little infinity. I wouldn't trade it for the world. You gave me a forever within the numbered days, and I'm grateful.”
    John Green, The Fault in Our Stars
