    Sylvia Day
    “Are you sleeping with anyone?”

    The question was asked so casually it took a second to process what he’d said.

    I inhaled sharply. “Why is that any business of yours?”

    He looked at me and I saw what I’d seen the first time we’d met—tremendous power and steely control. Both of which had me taking an involuntary step back. Again. At least I didn’t fall this time; I was making progress.

    “Because I want to fuck you, Eva. I need to know what’s standing in my way, if anything.”
    Sylvia Day, Bared to You

    “You forget who submits, Eva,” he said gruffly. “I’ve given up control for you. I’ve bent and adjusted for you. I’ll do anything to keep you and make you happy. But I can’t be tamed or topped. Don’t mistake indulgence for weakness.”
    Sylvia Day, Bared to You

    Sylvia Day
    “I spend a quarter of every day inside you. When you set limits outside of that I can't help but see them as arbitrary.”

  • #13
    Sylvia Day
    “I love you, Gideon.”

    “God.” He looked at me with something that resembled disgust. Whether it was directed at me or himself, I didn’t know. “How can you say that?”

    “Because it’s the truth.”

    “You just see this”—he gestured at himself with a wave of his hand. “You’re not seeing the fucked-up, broken mess inside.”

    I inhaled sharply. “You can say that to me? When you know I’m fucked up and broken, too?”
    Sylvia Day, Bared to You

  • #14
    Sylvia Day
    “You definitely have the voice for phone sex, but I've got to go. I have a date with my vibrator."

    "Oh, Eva." Cross spoke my name in a decadent purr. "You're determined to drive me to my knees, aren't you? What will it take to talk you into a threesome with B.O.B.”
    Sylvia Day, Bared to You

  • #15
    Sylvia Day
    “It's not the right word, Eva," he pressed on stubbornly, his lips at my ear. "That's why I haven't said it. It's not the right word for you and what I feel for you."

    "Shut up. If you care about me at all, you'll just shut up and go away."

    "I've been loved before--by Corinne, by other women...But what the hell do they know about me? What the hell are they in love with when they don't know how fucked up I am? If that's love, it's nothing compared to what I feel for you.”
    Sylvia Day, Bared to You

    Sylvia Day

    Sylvia Day, Bared to You

  • #17
    Sylvia Day
    “Sex that's planned like a business transaction is a turnoff for me..... Listen to yourself. Why even call it a fuck? Why not be clear and call it a seminal emission in a pre-approved orifice?" (Eva to Gideon)”

    Veronica Roth
    “What did you do?” I mumble. He is just a few feet away from me now, but not close enough to hear me. As he passes me he stretches out his hand. He wraps it around my palm and squeezes. Squeezes, then lets go. His eyes are bloodshot; he is pale. “What did you do?” This time the question tears from my throat like a growl. I throw myself toward him, struggling against Peter’s grip, though his hands chafe. “What did you do?” I scream. “You die, I die too” Tobias looks over his shoulder at me. “I asked you not to do this. You made your decision. These are the repercussions.”
    Veronica Roth

    Veronica Roth
    “Dauntless,' he says. 'I was born for Abnegation. I was planning on leaving Dauntless, and becoming factionless. But then I met her, and...I felt like maybe I could make something more of my decision.'
    Her.
    For a moment, it's like I'm looking at a different person, sitting in Tobias's skin, one whose life is not as simple as I thought. He wanted to leave Dauntless, but he stayed because of me. He never told me that.”
    Veronica Roth

  • #21
    Veronica Roth
    “I'll be your family now," he says.
    "I love you," I say. (....)
    He stares at me. I wait with my hands clutching his arms for stability as he considers his response.
    He frowns at me. "Say it again."
    "Tobias," I say, "I love you.”
    Veronica Roth, Insurgent

  • #22
    Veronica Roth
    “For a few minutes we kiss, deep in the chasm, with the roar of water all around us. And we rise, hand in hand, I realize that if we had both chosen differently, we might have ended up doing the same thing, in a safer place, in gray clothes instead of black ones.”
    Veronica Roth, Divergent

    Katie McGarry
    “If you’re scared, tell me. If you need to cry and scream, then do it. And you sure as hell don’t walk away from us because you think it would be better for me. Here’s the reality, Echo: I want to be by your side. If you want to go to the mall stark naked so you can show the world your scars, then let me hold your hand. If you want to see your mom, then tell me that too. I may not always understand, but damn, baby, I’ll try.”
    Katie McGarry, Pushing the Limits

    “It doesn't get better," I said. "The pain. The wounds scab over and you don't always feel like a knife is slashing through you. But when you least expect it, the pain flashes to remind you you'll never be the same.”
    Katie McGarry, Pushing the Limits

    Katie McGarry
    “In a lightning-fast move, he placed both of his hands on the brick wall, caging me with his body. He leaned toward me and my heart shifted into a gear I didn't know existed. His warm breath caressed my neck, melting my frozen skin. I tilted my head, waiting for the solid warmth of his body on mine. I could see his eyes again and those dark orbs screamed hunger .
    "I heard a rumor."
    "What's that?" I struggled to get out.
    "It's your birthday."
    Terrified speaking would break the spell, I licked my suddenly dry lips and nodded.
    "Happy birthday." Noah drew his lips closer to mine; that sweet musky smell overwhelmed my senses. I could almost taste his lips when he unexpectedly took a step back, inhaling deeply. The cold air slapped me into the land of sober.”
    Katie McGarry, Pushing the Limits

    “We’d read about sirens in English this fall; Greek mythology bullshit about women so beautiful, their voices so enchanting, that men did anything for them. Turned out that mythology crap was real because every time I saw her, I lost my mind.”

    “I gazed into her beautiful green eyes and her fear melted. A shy smile tugged at her lips and at my heart. Fuck me and the rest of the world, I was in love.”
