“You're just jealous."

"Hardly. Been there, done you. Adequate, but unremarkable.”
― Jennifer Estep, Spider's Bite

“People, she was discovering, were like cockroaches: If you allowed one in, more were sure to follow.”
― Stacia Kane, City of Ghosts

“They'll try to kill you."
"Good thing I'm hard to kill." Only one thing concerned me. "Will you?"
"Never. I'm the one who will always watch over you. Always be there to fuck you back to your senses when you need it, the one who will never let you die.”
― Karen Marie Moning, Shadowfever

“I have no desire to sleep with you. I want to fuck you. And there is no such thing as perfectly good sex.  If it’s “perfectly good,” I mock in falsetto, “he should be shot in the head and put out of everyone’s misery. Sex either blows your fucking mind, or it’s not good enough. You want me to blow your fucking mind, Ms. Lane? Come on.  Do it.  Be a big girl.”
― Karen Marie Moning, Burned
