“Elizabeth,
With my compliments.
You will never get your claws into another one of mine.
Rot in hell,
L
N茂x clasped her hands over her chest, sighing, 鈥淗e gave you his heart. That鈥檚 so romantic. So much better than a candy heart. Those get stuck in the fangs, you know.”
― Kresley Cole, Lothaire

“When she absently worried her bottom lip with one of her adorable little fangs, he sighed.
The Enemy of Old fucking sighed.
Dear gods, it鈥檇 finally happened to him.
Happiness.
Then his own fangs sharpened.I will kill anyone who tries to take this feeling away from me.”
― Kresley Cole, Lothaire

“The past can not be cured.”
― Queen Elizabeth I

“Because,鈥� he said quietly as she stood up, 鈥渦ntil you walked into it, this was an ordinary garden.鈥�

Puzzled, Elizabeth tipped her head. 鈥淲hat is it now?鈥�

“Then realization had dawned. "Oh, my God, you're the one who hurt Davis, the boy I was with. You saw us together, and you threw him down a gully. He broke both of his legs!"

"He lived?" Gaze narrowing, Lothaire had murmured, "Not for much Longer.”
― Kresley Cole, Lothaire

“With his current mood, Elizabeth realized, she was going to have to make her own opening. Lifting her eyes to his enigmatic golden ones, she said quietly, 鈥淚an, have you ever wanted something very badly-something that
was within your grasp-and yet you were afraid to reach out for it?鈥�

Surprised by her grave question and her use of his name, Ian tried to ignore the jealousy that had been eating at him all night. 鈥淣o,鈥� he said, scrupulously keeping the curtness from his voice as he gazed down at her alluring face. 鈥淲hy do you ask? Is there something you want?鈥�

Her gaze fell from his, and she nodded at his frilled white shirtfront.

鈥淲hat is it you want?鈥�

鈥渊辞耻.&谤诲辩耻辞;
― Judith McNaught, Almost Heaven

“Feeling a little foolish over her confidences, Elizabeth glanced up at him with an embarrassed smile. 鈥淲hat is the most beautiful place you鈥檝e ever seen?鈥�

Dragging his gaze from the beauty of the gardens, Ian looked down at the beauty beside him. 鈥淎ny place,鈥� he said huskily, 鈥渨here you are.”
― Judith McNaught, Almost Heaven

“I grieve and dare not show my discontent,
I love and yet am forced to seem to hate,
I do, yet dare not say I ever meant,
I seem stark mute but inwardly do prate.
I am and not, I freeze and yet am burned,
Since from myself another self I turned.

My care is like my shadow in the sun,
Follows me flying, flies when I pursue it,
Stands and lies by me, doth what I have done.”
― Elizabeth I, Her Life in Letters

“Elizabeth鈥檚 entire body started to tremble as his lips began descending to hers. and she sought to forestall what her heart knew was inevitable by reasoning with him. 鈥淎 gently bred Englishwoman,鈥� she shakily quoted Lucinda鈥檚 lecture. 鈥渇eels nothing stronger than affection. We do not fall in love.鈥�

His warm lips covered hers. 鈥淚鈥檓 a Scot,鈥� he murmured huskily. 鈥淲e do.”
― Judith McNaught, Almost Heaven

“I love you,鈥� he whispered, rubbing his
jaw against her temple. 鈥淎nd you love me. I can feel it when you鈥檙e in my arms.鈥� He felt her stiffen slightly
and draw a shaky breath, but she either couldn鈥檛 or wouldn鈥檛 speak. She hadn鈥檛 thrown the words back in his face, however, so Ian continued talking to her, his hand roving over her back. 鈥淚 can feel it, Elizabeth, but if you don鈥檛 admit it pretty soon, you鈥檙e going to drive me out of my mind. I can鈥檛 work. I can鈥檛 think. I make decisions and then I change my mind. And,鈥� he teased, trying to lighten the mood by using the one topic sure to distract her, 鈥渢hat鈥檚 nothing to the money I squander whenever I鈥檓 under this sort of violent stress. It wasn鈥檛 just the gowns I bought, or the house on Promenade...鈥�

Still talking to her, he tipped her chin up, glorying in the gentle passion in her eyes, overlooking the doubt in their green depths. 鈥淚f you don鈥檛 admit it pretty soon,鈥� he teased, 鈥淚鈥檒l spend us out of house and home.鈥� Her delicate brows drew together in blank confusion, and Ian grinned, taking her hand from his chest, the emerald betrothal ring he had bought her unnoticed in his fingers. 鈥淲hen I鈥檓 under stress,鈥� he emphasized, sliding the magnificent emerald onto her finger, 鈥淚 buy everything in sight. It took my last ounce of control not to buy one of these in every color.”
― Judith McNaught, Almost Heaven

“His gaze held hers, and his voice was tender and rough. 鈥淟ove me, Elizabeth.鈥�

Elizabeth felt a tremor run through her entire body, but she looked at him without flinching. 鈥淚 do.”
― Judith McNaught, Almost Heaven

“As he鈥檇 slept one night, suffering from some nightmare, she鈥檇 gazed down at him with tenderness. Her chest had ached with feeling for him鈥攁s his continued to do for her. She鈥檇 smoothed hair from his brow, soothing him with soft words.”
― Kresley Cole, Lothaire

“You didn鈥檛 tell me living would be one decision after another, some easy, some difficult. You didn鈥檛 tell me living wasn鈥檛 a battle, but a war. You didn鈥檛 tell me that living was a choice, and that every day I choose to continue was another victory, another triumph.”
― S. Jae-Jones, Shadowsong

“Elizabeth, you resemble nothing so much as a hen trying to hatch a book.”

“The next morning dawned cool and clear. The early mist had lifted, leaving a thick layer of dew clinging to the hillsides beyond the castle, shimmering in the morning sun like faerie dust sprinkled over a lush bed of emerald.
Like his eyes.”
― Monica McCarty, Highland Outlaw

“She read him better than he realized and eyed him warily. "Do you want to know?"
He thought for a moment, then shook his head. "Nay." It was in the past. "Then I would have to kill him."
Her eyes widened, his blunt statement surprising her. "You would do that for me?"
The woman was daft. "I will kill anyone who harms you." He cocked a brow. "I hope that doesn't offend your delicate sensibilities?"
"No," she said hesitantly. "Though I'm not used to having such a fierce protector."
He kissed her forehead. "Get used to it.”

“And how do you propose we sort this out?" His voice was wonderfully hoarse.
She smiled, a devilish glint in her eyes. "Oh, I'm sure we can figure something out." Her gaze dropped to the hefty bulge in his pants.
Dear God.
Her mouth suddenly went dry. Her bravado faltered. She wasn't nearly
as confident as she pretended.
Unconsciously, she licked her bottom lip. If possible, the prodigious
bulge seemed to grow a little bigger. He appeared to be in a great deal of
pain, but Elizabeth was discovering that she had a rather ruthless streak
when it came to this man.
She approached him slowly,”
― Monica McCarty, Highland Outlaw

“Her mouth was right on his ear, and she spoke her wicked thoughts aloud. "I want you inside me."
That was it. With a violent growl, he snapped. "Damn you, Elizabeth.”
― Monica McCarty, Highland Outlaw

“Thief, brigand, outlaw, scourge: Those were names he was familiar with, not hero. Yet for a moment, this wee lass could make him want to believe that it was a possibility. Make him believe that there might be a flicker left in the embers of his blackened soul. That maybe there was still something inside him that hadn't died.
He regretted that one day soon he would have to prove her wrong.”
― Monica McCarty, Highland Outlaw

“Her body sighed, taking him in as if she'd been waiting for this her
whole life.
Perhaps she had.”
― Monica McCarty, Highland Outlaw

“Tilting her face back, he looked into her eyes. They were unfocused, unable to settle on his face. And the same terrifying feeling stole over him once again. An acute fear鈥攁 final, painful realization鈥攖hat her world was one of utter blackness. At last he realized the magnitude
of her blindness. He couldn鈥檛 imagine never seeing her again.
It was like a death, the inevitable conclusion when someone was gone. Why it should hit him now, after all these years, he could not fathom, but it was there, and finally he understood her private hell. He鈥檇 told her he would die without sight. Selfish, arrogant bastard, concerned
with his own needs, his own perversions to watch
himself pleasure her, to study her as she accepted him, to watch their bodies joined. How carelessly he had said that, not thinking of Elizabeth and what she would die for. What she wanted in this life.”
― Charlotte Featherstone, Temptation & Twilight

“Again.
Apparently, three broken engagements weren't enough. It was her duty to marry, and marry she must.”
