“I know it is a clich茅, but reformed rakes do make admirable husbands. Why? First of all, their wild oats are thoroughly sown. The second reason? They know how to please a woman between the sheets.

“Just when I think you鈥檝e hit bottom you continue to amaze me,鈥� Kyle said. 鈥淥r, does this get worse? Nothing would surprise me after this. Are you sleeping with a married man whose wife is dying of cancer?鈥�

Elroy didn鈥檛 think he鈥檇 done anything wrong. 鈥淚 know nothing about his wife, or his husband for that matter. I don鈥檛 ask and I鈥檓 not out to break up his home. Lighten up, man. Everybody does it. It鈥檚 not like I鈥檓 going to freaking marry this dude. I鈥檓 only having a little fun with him. You wanna come with me? We鈥檒l have a three-way. You should see the way this guy moves. It will blow your mind.鈥�


With that remark Kyle shoved his hands into his pockets and walked faster. 鈥淣o, thank you. That鈥檚 not something I鈥檓 interested in doing. Meeting nice, decent people is the only thing that blows my mind. I just hope you鈥檙e using condoms, you goddman asshole.”
Ryan Field, The Ivy League Rake

“You don鈥檛 have to apologize,鈥� Treston said. 鈥淚 know where I work, I know what I do to make a living, and I know it鈥檚 not the most respectable place in Vegas. But frankly, Chad, if you don鈥檛 mind my saying so, I think you have a lot to learn about good manners.鈥�
Chad blinked. 鈥淲hat do you mean?鈥�
Treston reached for his wine glass, finished off what was left to wash down the last forkful of chewy escargot, and said, 鈥淎ll I鈥檓 saying is you haven鈥檛 stopped harping about that blond, and I have to tell you it鈥檚 getting a little tired now. Seriously, man. It鈥檚 a little insulting, too.鈥� He leaned forward, looked into Chad鈥檚 eyes, and held his hand. 鈥淟ook, I know how hard it is for selfish men like you to understand empathy. Lord knows I鈥檝e been with enough of them.”
Ryan Field

Georgette Heyer
“I allow you all the vices you choose to claim -- indeed, I know you for a gamester, and a shocking rake, and a man of sadly unsteady character! -- but I'm not so green that I don't recognize in you one virtue and least, and one quality.'

'What, is that all? How disappointing! What are they?'

'A well-informed mind, and a great deal of kindness.”
Georgette Heyer, Venetia
