“The lamp tipped over, nailing Kane in the head.
Sabin shook his head. The man was a walking disaster Literally. Whenever Kane stepped into a room, things went to hell pretty quickly. Sabin expected the ceiling to cave in any moment. And yea, it had happened before.”

“I'll take the cemetery," Kane said. He didn't sound excited. Rather, he sounded resigned. "The club might collapse if I go.”

Uh..."My what?" "Your personal male secretary.”
― Gena Showalter, The Darkest Craving

“Here in Raine, I can walk with the sunlight on my face. I can speak to anyone who speaks to me. I can learn my daughter's language. I can be called the name I was given when I was born.
Here I am no longer my own secret.
Will you let me stay?”
― Patricia A. McKillip, Alphabet of Thorn

“It was my baby, too.â€� His voice was husky, filled with regret, with pain. “But even more than that, Sherra, you’re my soul. You’re every breath I take. I would give my life to have saved you. I would give it now if it would mean I could go back and spare you this pain.â€� The dampness from his eyes soaked the swarthy complexion, lined with pain and regret. “I would do anything, everything, baby, to ease this pain for you.”

“Help me?" Hope opened as sweetly as a rose in sunlight, bright and beautiful."Really?" He nodded.
"Oh, Kane. Thank you!" He planned to kill her, the darling man.”

“You Americans. You suppress the body of its desires, and treat the heart as if it is a wild animal to be tamed, so that when those things are awakened in you , they have the strength of ravenous lions, too long imprisoned.”
― Louisa Edwards, Some Like It Hot

“I need to pull away from this - She gestured between them languidly - "because When I'm with you, I lose my balance. I don't feel calm and happy.
She leaned forward, and Kane swallowed down his immediate urge to leap across the table and crush her thin lips under his.
"When I am with you," Claire said, her accent rolling through the words like thunder, "I am a starving lion, raging at my captivity.”
― Louisa Edwards

“She says I owe her."
"And you always pay your debts? What kind of craziness is that?"

“I arch a brow. 'The female thing?'
He waves a hand. 'You know, where you say the nice things and make her feel better even though she's heartbroken and love's a bitch?'
'Oh, I... Why's that a female thing?'
He grunts. 'You think I'm a good candidate for that job? I can't even tell someone to have a good day without sounding like I secretly wish they'd die.'
He has a point.”

“I know you’re not like that anymore, Kane. While I don’t approve of the person you used to be, I can’t change the past. Lord knows I would if I could. The only thing to do is move forward, and if you want, I would love for you to do so with me.”

“You want me to go screw myself.�
“Close enough.”

“If I wanted to punish myself, I’d keep looking at your face.â€�
“Isn’t my face in half the pictures taped to your bunk wall?�
“Maybe I keep them there to scare away the devil.�
“Just show him your feet,� he said, going for her weak spot. She had adorable toes, but she hated that her second one was longer than the first. “He’ll run screaming back to hell with his forked tail between his legs.�
“Keep talking and I’ll send you there to meet him.�
“I’ll say hello to your demon-spawn mother while I’m there.�
“Try not to wet yourself like you did at the palace.�
“Hey!â€� He drew back an inch. That was hitting below the belt. “I was only four when that happened, and your mom was legitimately scary.”
― Melissa Landers, Starfall

“I didn't even think, just went with instinct. Opening my arms, I felt the tiny life placed there. Wrapping him close and tight to my chest, I felt my heart swelling with love. So small, so delicate. Using the tip of my finger, I traced his face, his little lips, his chin and cheeks, his eyes. "You're right, Tea, he is beautiful."

"He has your eyes," she whispered. "We still need to name him."

"Christian Simon Doyle. After your dad and your idiot friend."

Her voice sounded raw when she spoke again. "That's perfect."

"You're perfect. Thank you, Tea, thank you for my son, for our life, thank you for not giving up on me.”

“You and Tom must have made a good match,â€� he said. “What are you
doing? Is this the way you initiate new tutors? By stabbing them in the shoe?”

“Then he caught my arms, lifted them and pressed them against the wall. My lips parted in a smile when he kissed me and he slipped his tongue inside.”

“My name is Kane," he said finally, "and I am the youngest member ever to be inducted into the secret organization known as the Watchers. This," he gestured to the hall around them, "is what we call the Commuter Station. It is the second basement of the Watcher Castle." "Watchers?" said Lily. "What are you watching for?" Kane's mouth stretched into a bitter, tight-lipped smile and his eyes narrowed in Peter's direction. "Him.”
― C.A. Gray, Intangible

“He stood and grabbed her forearm, pulling her just ever so slightly toward him. "But if you want any help studying, let me know."

Her eyes flickered down to his lips, then back up to meet his gaze. She straightened her shoulders and exhaled. "Let me guess, you'll quiz e, and for each wrong answer I give, I'll have to take off something I'm wearing?"

Kane's mouth parted and his eyes widened as her considered the image she'd just painted for him. "Hell, kitty, I was genuinely offering to help, but your idea is so much better. Let's go with that.”
― Sarah Robinson

“His hand found her chin, gently tipping her face up to look at him. "Kitty."

"What?" She finally looked at him, exposing a vulnerability in her eyes that made his heart pound behind his ribs.

"Dibs.”
― Sarah Robinson

“Got your stuff?"

Nora's checks flushed. "Um, yeah, but..."

"What?"

"My hand hurts so much, and I need two hands to do my button. Could you...um..."

He furrowed his brow, unsure what she meant as she trailed off, blushing more now. Following her gaze, he glanced down at her pants. Sure enough, her jeans were on but unbuttoned, revealing a peek of the tiny green short-shorts from her uniform.

He chuckled and reached forward, buttoning her jeans for her. "I've never put pants on a woman before, but I'll make an exception this time."

"I appreciate your sacrifice," she said sarcastically, and Kane decided then and there that he wanted to see her smiling like that all the time.”
― Sarah Robinson

“If I was barely alive, I wouldn't be in so much pain. If anything, I'm too alive. I need to dull down all this aliveness." Casey tried to smile but grimaced instead. "I think I need a minibar moment.”

“He stepped into my space, locking eyes with me, then pressed his mouth to mine. His lips were soft and firm and I breathed in sharply, tasting him. He trembled for a moment, and then my ass hit the desk as he collided with me. His hand curled around the back of my neck while the other rubbed my thigh.”
― Anyta Sunday, DJ Dangerfield

“I remember leaving the session so annoyed I hadn’t asked your name. I searched through the stuff Tom gave me and found it. I thought it was God’s really bizarre sense of humor that you had the same name as my Justin.â€�
My Justin? I blinked and something strong and tender unfurled inside.”
― Anyta Sunday, DJ Dangerfield

“He let go of my arms and ran his hands down my sides. I clutched the sides of his head, kissing him hard and urging him closer. I trailed one hand down his back to his ass and pushed him against me.
“You feel so good,â€� I said to him, and he kissed me again. This time softer and without any rush, like he could twist his tongue with mine forever.”
― Anyta Sunday, DJ Dangerfield

“How come only evil forces were released?â€�
“Because there are no good forces.�
“So, then. You don’t believe that there is a God.�
“There was a god.�
“Well, then. Where is he now?�
“I killed him,â€� said Kane.”
