It had been so long since i'd let myself fall for anybody.
I'm in love with you. This isn't a memory, but a promise, do you hear me?
I'm going to say this slowly and use little words in the hope you can follow along. If you call me Elisabeth again, I'll make sure you can never father children. Tell anyone else whose niece I am and...
I won't tell anyone, Echo. I promise. Noah tucked a curl behind my ear. It had been so long since someone touched me like he did. Why did it have to be Noah Hutchins? His dark brown eyes shifted to my...
I slam my hand into the nearest locker, almost relishing the sting.Feel better?A glance across the hallway and I freeze. Doesn’t matter how many times I see her in a day, she still manages to take my...
I rubbed my hand over my face before glancing at Echo. A hint of her cleavage peeked from her shirt. Damn, she was sexy as hell. I wanted her, badly. Would one night be enough, even if she gave it to...
I don’t understand love very well and I don’t understand why someone would give it so freely.
I added a fucked-up thought to another fucked-up thought and I created a pile of shit.

You love me? she says.I’ve been in love with you for as long as I can remember. I don’t remember not loving you. It’s always been there – as easy and beautiful as the sun rising in the morning.
When Beth struggles for words it means she's on the verge of saying something worth hearing. Her emotions confuse her. Maybe tonight, she'll finally find the courage to say the words I'm longing to he...

The darkness isn't so frightening with Ryan. With him I can believe that I am a princess with a wreath of flowers and ribbons crowning my head and he is my prince sworn to protect me from the evils in...
Pigpen saunters up beside me. He's in his midtwenties and a wall of solid muscle. Most men wet themselves when he looks in their direction. Eli wants him in.
