― Susan Ee, Angelfall

I see you in the light of the water, in the swaying of the young trees in the spring wind. I see you in the shadows of the great oaks, I hear your voice in the cry of the owl at night. You are the blood in my veins, and the beating of my heart. You are my first waking thought, and my last sigh before sleeping. You are - you are bone of my bone, and breath of my breath.”
― Juliet Marillier, Daughter of the Forest

“That would suit me very well.”

She linked her arms around his neck, laid her cheek on his. Love finds a way, she thought.”
― J.D. Robb, Treachery in Death
