You need someone a little dirty, honey, with a heart of gold, she whispered in my ear as she patted my back. I don’t think you’re going to find it in this century. We don’t make honest men who are tha...
You didn’t even keep a call-back clause? Al asked, then waved his hand and answered his own question. Of course not. You’ve had the worst upbringing of any demon I’ve seen. - Al to Rachel
You are your father's daughter,' he said, the skin around his eyes tightening. 'Trent is his father's son. Apart, you are annoying. Together...you have the potential to be a problem.
Yes, but . . . She hesitated, her gaze finally coming to me. I survived because I fell in love. With you was unspoken.
Witches married outside their species all the time, especially before the Turn. There were perfectly acceptable options: adoption, artificial insemination, borrowing your best friend’s boyfriend for a...

What are you doing in Nicky's room, Rachel? Oooh! He summoned you to the west coast, didn't he? Did you kill him? Good for you taking care of that little problem? I should give you a bunny! - Algaliar...

Under the disguise amulet, Jenks looked very different with black hair and a darker complexion. He had his new aviator jacket on over the T-shirt he had bought in the previous store, making him a sexy...

Two grande lattes, double espresso, Italian blend, he said to the clerk. Light on the froth, extra cinnamon. Use whole milk. Not two percent or half-and-half. Put a shot of raspberry in one for my itc...
This is about Ku’Sox, isn’t it, I said, more of a statement than a question. He made a sighing groan, and I knew it was. Then you’ve met, he said, his thoughts clearly on the day-walking demon. Funny,...
This can’t happen. Minias said it couldn’t happen. I’m not a demon. It shouldn’t work for me! I’m not a demon! Apparently, Al said, slamming into the bars in time with his words, you’re so damn close,...
The woman could stomp like an elephant,' [...] 'Quen threatened to smack her.''Yes, thrash her,' Al said, slumping back against the wall. 'But she always had my coffee and toast to distract me.' His e...
The memory of him tracing the lines of my face filled me. I remembered the touch of his sensitive fingers, following my jawline, running down my neck to follow the curves of my body. I remembered his...

The Weres would track us from there. I’m surprised they haven’t found us already. I can’t believe you bit her. We have four Were packs scenting for our blood, and you think now is a good time to chang...
That was the extent of our relationship, but I knew he used me to keep Were women from insinuating themselves into his life. My gaze landed on the fat little black book beside his phone. Apparently th...
