“Mhisery realized at that moment, her father was so far gone into alcoholism the bottle had become his lover —and Avery Bellemy was nothing if not faithful to his partner. He cherished the bottle above his family, above his business, above his good name, and well above his own health. Her father was now pouring all the love he had felt for their mother into a bottle”

“I’d like to see you try to have my job. Around here I’m more connected than a Kennedy. As for our animals, there is no rapin’ involved, they are more than willing, just ask your “girlfriend.” She is probably gettin’ a little animal lovin’, and it’s probably better than you, which is why she isn’t answering your calls. Also, we aren’t hillbillies, we are rednecks. Don’t you have a map fucktard, no mountains in this part of the state, but you bring your ass down here, and I’ll do you a solid. I’ll introduce you to the fuckin’ bubba-brigade. Have a good night, and if Mhisery ever rolls off the animal she is on, I’ll tell her you called.”
― Shyloh Morgan, Chasing Midnight

“As he slowed his speed, in reverence to his home, he noticed the long row of trees lining each side of the drive had started to bloom; adding to the beauty of the landscape. As long as he lived, taking the winding drive to the house would always warm his heart and feel like home.”
― Alex Morgan, Chasing Midnight

“Quinn would have closed the bar down if needed. There was nothing in this world that was more important to him than his family. He would always come when any of them, even Avalon, who barely ever came home, needed him. He would stand up for them, whether they were right or wrong. He would pick them up if they fell and he would always be proud of them — no matter how small their accomplishments. He was, and always would be, their elder brother, father figure, friend, or whatever role they needed him to be.”
― Alex Morgan, Chasing Midnight

― Shyloh Morgan, Chasing Midnight

“He had basically told Clay he wanted the job done and he wanted his woman safe — in a very veiled code. If it took throwing down a peace flag with the one man in Midnight, he could barely pass without glaring at, then he was willing to do it. There wasn't much he wouldn't do for Mhisery whether she knew it or not. The woman was buried in his heart and soul; he would tear out one or sell the other to make her happy.”
― Shyloh Morgan, Chasing Midnight

“That was Clay's olive branch to Quinn, and if the sumbitch weren't as stubborn as a mule, he'd take it.”

“The porch held a wealth of memories for Quinn of times spent with his father; of more recent times when Quinn took the place of his dad to listen to his sisters, and more often than not, his brother. The area bled memories, and with a handful of lady-luck, it would hold a shit load more.”
― Shyloh Morgan, Chasing Midnight

“As he slowed his speed, in reverence to his home, he noticed the long row of trees lining each side of the drive had started to bloom; adding to the beauty of the landscape. As long as he lived, taking the winding drive to the house would always warm his heart and feel like home.”

“Alyssa's mouth went dry at the sight of Chance as he opened the door. His chest was bare, with faint droplets of water covering the tattooed bundle of hotness known as her friend.”
― Shyloh Morgan, Chasing Midnight

“Chance didn't have a fight lined up for a few weeks; which meant he had nothing to do —it was never good when Chance was left to his own devices. He didn't like alone. Alone reminded him of when his parents died, and he felt like he was abandoned by the people who were supposed to love him most. When he felt abandoned he sought out a connection which, usually, involved his dick. The time he was with a woman meant, at least for a little while, he wasn't alone.”
― Shyloh Morgan, Chasing Midnight

“He wanted Mhisery to experience something with him she had never had before. Total completion. He was an arrogant bastard; he wanted to know he was the best she had ever had and even after the weekend past, she would crave him. He was willing to work with that until she needed him on an emotional level. He meant what he told her, he wasn't going to give up easily.”
― Shyloh Morgan, Chasing Midnight

“Chance worked lower to the steel bands of his abdomen and went lower still. His soap laden hand clasped his cock as his mind wandered to thoughts of Alyssa. She was the epitome of pain in the ass, but he liked that about her. She was sexy as hell with her attitude that screamed ten foot tall and bullet proof.”
― Shyloh Morgan, Chasing Midnight

“Beauty if you keep that up, I am goin' to embarrass myself like a schoolboy”
― Shyloh Morgan, Chasing Midnight

“Mhisery found comfort in the fact Quinn saw her as a woman. He saw past the tattoos, the piercings, and the attitude. She had built walls around her heart since her mother’s death; fearing if she let anyone in she would lose herself. If she let anyone in they would see her dysfunctional family, and would look down on her for it. She didn’t want anyone to see the man her father had become. She wanted them to remember him as he was before her mother died, and he lost his mind — along with the will to live.”
