I hate those moments, too.

Anita (honeygirl) I have a favorite scene in every book, but my two all time die-hard favorites are the one in Rapture at the end when Eve is crying so hard and trying to get to Roarke before he uses those VR Goggles. Makes me cry every time.

My new favorite is the scene in Obsession when Lottie was in the Bullpen. That whole scene from beginning to end, when Eve hugs Peabody I'm usually in tears. Best scene in any book, and shows just how much they all mean to each other. They're a family, and - OOOH!! I just flashed on Treachery when they all Saluted Eve at the end....I love these books.

I love revisiting these moments. Good ones!

Beeg Panda (beegpanda) | 70 comments Two scenes in Betrayal in Death (In Death, #12) by J.D. Robb

Where the FBI messes up:
“Feeney erupted. It was a vicious, feral, and inventive tirade that was peculiarly Irish in tone. It was that brilliant and blue rant Eve heard as she walked back up the stairs, down the hall, and into the room.
And she knew they were screwed.”

And when she and the FBI idiot have a showdown after which she clocks him good and solid:
“Perhaps it was embarrassment, or perhaps he was simply a moron. But he lunged at her. She didn’t think; she didn’t hesitate. With a half-pivot, she shot her elbow up, caught him just under the chin. She heard his teeth snap together an instant before he went down.”

Oh WOW....

Remember that well, including her bringing that agent down to size.


SB*needs low angst books* You know Naked in Death scene of the Funeral where Roarke looks back at Eve and they have that first real look at each other stands out. It felt like a powerful moment and one that I always remember first.

The other stand out for me is the fight at the end and Roarke's care for her after and Galahad. It was so intense and then lovely.
