    “Broad shoulders fit snugly under his white shirt, and taut muscles flex in his arm as he grips a tray. He’s not a muscle-bound freak though, thank God. I don’t like that “I have boulders in my biceps” look that a lot of guys seem to favor these days.”
    Siobhan Davis, Saven Deception

    Siobhan     Davis
    “She bends over, whispering in my ear. “Have you ever been with a guy?”
    “Yes,” I say, even though that quick fumble with Luca Parry in the factory closet doesn’t count for much. He was all grabby hands, sloppy mouth, and slimy tongue. It’s an experience I’m in no hurry to repeat. Ugh. A severe shiver travels up my spine with the memory.”
    Siobhan Davis, Saven Deception

    Siobhan     Davis
    “I’m not much of a liar. A hoarder, a hider: most definitely, yes, and sometimes I’m dishonest by default because I find it difficult to share that innermost part of myself with others. But never a conscious liar. I don’t think I have it within me to deliberately mislead anyone.”
    Siobhan Davis, Saven Deception

    Lisa Kessler, Lure of Obsession

    Lisa Kessler
    “He seems like a good guy, but we need to focus on finding Nia’s killer, and then finish the theater. We don’t have time for distractions. No men.”

    “Yeah, yeah, I know.” Mel rolled her eyes.

    “Inspiration before intercourse.”

    Callie chuckled. “I should put that on a T-shirt.”
    Lisa Kessler, Lure of Obsession

    “He rested a hand over hers. “Ever since I met you, keeping it professional has been practically impossible.”
    “So it’s true.”
    “Which part?”
    “You could get in trouble for seeing me.”

    He raised her hand to his lips, brushing a kiss to her knuckles. “I can handle a little trouble. How about you?”

    “He took the spatula and smiled, and she headed for the bedroom, only stopping once to see if he was watching her ass wiggle under his shirt.

    Siobhan     Davis
    “Suddenly, I’m struck by the magnitude of the moment. Hurtling through the air becomes freeing, not terrifying. This time last year, I was suffocating within the confines of my life. I would’ve done anything to escape. That my life has come full circle is as exhilarating as it is scary.
    Life is for living.
    For moments like this.”
    Siobhan Davis, Saven Defiance

    Siobhan     Davis
    “He roars laughing as he raises our conjoined hands to his lips. “Have I told you lately that I love you?”
    “About ten thousand times.” I smile.

    Siobhan Davis, Saven Defiance

    Siobhan     Davis
    “I’ve told him personal things about myself. Private things I haven’t told others. Things I haven’t yet had the time to confide in Logan.
    In this moment, I regret it all.
    In this moment, I know that Haydn and I will never again be friends.
    In this moment, I want to punch him in the face until he bleeds.”

    Siobhan     Davis
    “Rushing to my side, he palms my face before I can protest. “That’s exactly the issue, though. You don’t know your own mind. It’s full of the secrets of your past, and instead of trying to understand that, you are charging pig-headed down the wrong path.”
    Siobhan Davis, Saven Defiance

    “You look exhausted,” Logan says, his eyes raking over me. “Why don’t you try and catch some sleep.”
    “All your nocturnal activities must be taking a toll,” Haydn mutters not too discreetly under his breath.
    “The same could be said for you,” I retort, in no mood to ignore his renewed mean streak.
    “That’s rich coming from you.”
    “Haydn.” How Logan can manage to convey such potent meaning with one word is sheer talent. And I’m eternally grateful, because it shuts Haydn up.”
    Siobhan Davis, Saven Defiance

    Siobhan     Davis
    “We don’t have time for all this personal drama.” My eyes flit between Logan, Haydn, and Ax. “And it’s not fair on the others. The atmosphere is horrendous because of what’s going on between us. And I’m so tired of it. All of it.” I take a step back. “I’m not discussing this anymore, with any of you.” I glare at the three boys. “So sort your shit out, and get your act together. Until then,” I say, turning around. “Leave me the hell alone.”
    Siobhan Davis, Saven Defiance

    Siobhan     Davis
    “Haydn lets out a low whistle. “You’re a real piece of work.”
    “It’s okay,” I say, turning to face him. “I got the memo.” He arches a brow. “The one that says you hate my guts. There’s no need to rub it in.”
    Siobhan Davis, Saven Defiance

    Siobhan     Davis
    “Haydn snorts. “Only gullible, lovesick fools spout that mushy crap.” Thank the stars that his tone is teasing, because I can sense Logan’s patience waning.
    “When you find the right girl, I’m so going to make you eat your words. And I’m going to thoroughly enjoy rubbing your nose in it.”
    Siobhan Davis, Saven Defiance

    “. “Fancy a midnight swim?”
    “In this?” I gesture at my fancy-pants dress.
    Hauling me in to his naked chest, he pins me with a wolfish grin. “Without it was more what I had in mind.”

    Siobhan Davis, Saven Defiance

  • #27
    Siobhan     Davis
    “You are such a dork,” I exclaim as my fingers flit over the multitude of images and videos of Will Smith. Pinned quotes and sayings are highlighted, and I chuckle when I recognize a few. “Oh. My. God. Did you actually learn these on purpose?”
    He reels me into his arms and kisses the top of my head. “Will I be cementing my dork status if I answer affirmatively?”
    “Absolutely.” I look up into his beautiful eyes. “But I only love you more for it.”
    Siobhan Davis, Saven Defiance

  • #28
    Siobhan     Davis
    “But I can’t force myself to remember my hidden past or purposefully unravel the mystery of my heart. Secrets are usually buried for a reason.”
    Siobhan Davis, Saven Defiance

  • #29
    Siobhan     Davis
    “I don’t think I’d feel any more violated if he’d stripped me bare. I might as well have lain down before him openly exposing all my flaws and my fears, inviting him to psychoanalyze me.”
    Siobhan Davis, Finding Kyler

  • #30
    Siobhan     Davis
    “I was wrong last night. Kyler isn’t just trouble. He’s an apocalypse-level disaster waiting to happen. I need to find some fallout shelter to hide in. And quick.”
    Siobhan Davis, Finding Kyler
