0e40e51 | I love you, Nic." He dragged a thumb along her lip, careful not to hit the still healing part. "And if you don't love me anymore, I'm going to spend however long it takes making you fall in love with me again." | Jennifer L. Armentrout | ||

f4d2ebd | squared my shoulders. "Release the Kraken!" Several sets of eyes settled on me. "What?" I gave a lopsided shrug. "I've always wanted to yell that since I saw that movie. Seemed like the perfect moment." Aiden laughed. "See! That's why I love him," I told the group. "He laughs at the stupid crap that comes out of my mouth." In response, Aiden leaned over and pressed his lips against my temple. "Keep talking about loving me," he murmured, "an.. | Jennifer L. Armentrout | ||

44aa3f1 | For a moment, Rosie allowed herself to be dickmatized--you know, when you were either hypnotized by how attractive someone was or you were hypnotized by their dick, which therefore allowed you to look past unsavory traits about the person. | Jennifer L. Armentrout | ||
9241c61 | I'd always been a reader and I read a lot, usually sticking to books with some sort of romantic theme and a classic happily-ever-after. Lori used to make fun of me nonstop for it, claiming I had cheesy taste in books, but whatever. At least I didn't have pretentious taste in books like she did, and sometimes I just wanted to...I don't know, escape life. To delve headfirst into a world that dealt with real-life issues to open my eyes, or a w.. | Jennifer L. Armentrout | ||

e4842c7 | No. I told you before, I don't even remember coming through the gate. I woke up in thecemetery, my poor wing snapped, my leg broken, beaten like an orphan kid in regency England. I was a pitiful wee creature." "Um, okay. " | Jennifer L. Armentrout | ||
ec118b0 | You're okay," Kat breathed out as she broke free, limping around the side of the table. "I've been so worried." Archer pulled his long legs off the table and rose. A second later, he enveloped Kat in a hug. "I told you to stay where you were. But oh no, you didn't listen." He looked over her head at me. "I totally told her to stay." Luc scowled. "Why didn't I get a hug?" | Jennifer L. Armentrout | ||
af7e68a | I kinda like the arm-grabbing thing," he replied, shoving his hands into the pockets of his jeans. "Very dominant of you. Maybe I'm the submissive type in, you know, the-" | origin luc | Jennifer L. Armentrout | |
6a0fbb1 | Beth gave birth to a baby girl, so much so that the first thing I thought of was Nessie, and then I couldn't stop cackling for like fifteen minutes. | Jennifer L. Armentrout | ||

4a364b3 | Seth tilted his head to the side as he stared at me. "What did you just say?" Taking another step back, I glanced at the door. Could I make a run for it? Seth could definitely catch me, but right now, he probably didn't want to. "Josie?" My heart stuttered at the raw quality of his voice. I wanted to deny that I'd uttered those words, but I couldn't. How could I when it was the truth, and it wasn't like I could take those words back. I coul.. | love seth-diodoros the-power | Jennifer L. Armentrout | |
c707fad | The only time I sat up from lying down was to get out of bed. Or get some chocolate. Or a book. | Jennifer L. Armentrout | ||
458cbe9 | Leaning down, I kissed his cheek, and as I straightened, he turned wide amber eyes on me. "I see what you don't." I ran my hand up and down his arm. "You're not selfish, even if you have moments of acting like it. We all do. You're not evil, even if you were created by the greatest evil of them all. You've proven to me and yourself that you have free will, and you've made the right decisions time and time again." As I dragged my hand up his.. | Jennifer L. Armentrout | ||
e8c3634 | Okay, I won't call you Dev, Dev." "You just did," he said dryly. "How about I just call you Dickhead, then? That sounds about fitting." "You already did that." "Then that's perfect. I'll just--" Her phone suddenly rang from her pocket. She pulled it out and saw that it was Lance calling again. "Excuse me." She held up her hand, silencing Dev as she answered her phone. "Hello?" Dev stared at her--no, he gaped at her." | Jennifer L. Armentrout | ||
d221987 | Are you for real?" She let out a short laugh, looking away. Why did so many good-looking guys have to be such douche canoes? "Man, you are something else." "That I am." "That wasn't a compliment." "You sure about that?" "Uh, yeah. I am." "Hmm." He sounded utterly dismissive. She had to force her hands to unclench. "I think you're the most uptight person I know." "You know nothing about me." "I know enough to know you need a hobby or a pasti.. | Jennifer L. Armentrout | ||
5f53a8e | Devlin shifted just the slightest, and the next breath Rosie took lodged in her throat. She felt him against her stomach, thick and hard, and unless he had something weird in the front of his pants, he was totally turned on. So was she. And they were both apparently freaks, because she'd just tried to shove him and he had just threatened her, but here they were, utterly aroused, and there was a really good chance she needed to find a therap.. | Jennifer L. Armentrout | ||

8105841 | I was the beginning and he was the end, and together, we were everything. | Jennifer L. Armentrout | ||
ec011df | Let's start over. Completely. You'll pretend that the mere idea of being attracted to me doesn't freak you out, and I'll pretend that you're not thinking about how I'd feel under your fingers. Hmm? Sound like a plan? | luc | Jennifer L. Armentrout | |
aa8ec0f | Our heartbeats...they're the same. | Jennifer L. Armentrout | ||
db5cdfe | You tried to kidnap me, Luc. Hmm, he murmured. That means I like you. I arched a brow. Okay. That's messed up on about a thousand different levels. Probably, I don't people well. | kidnap origin luc | Jennifer L. Armentrout | |
5796249 | I'd wanted the truth, but actually hearing it - seeing it - was totally different. | Jennifer L. Armentrout | ||
0bd6bc0 | think of climate change as slow, but it is unnervingly fast. We think of the technological change necessary to avert it as fast-arriving, but unfortunately it is deceptively slow--especially judged by just how soon we need it. This is what Bill McKibben means when he says that winning slowly is the same as losing: "If we don't act quickly, and on a global scale, then the problem will literally become insoluble," he writes. "The decisions we.. | David Wallace-Wells | ||
a4066c1 | We do it by the book, then?" "Precisely. By the book. Yes. Except that there isn't a book." "Right. We do it by a vague but nevertheless tenacious commitment to the book that there isn't." "That's why I like you, Miss Rook--you catch on to the subtle nuances so quickly." | William Ritter | ||
9c07d2b | I loved Ophelia: forty thousand brothers Could not, with all their quantity of love, Make up my sum. What wilt thou do for her?... 'Swounds, show me what thou'lt do: Woo't weep? woo't fight? woo't fast? woo't tear thyself? Woo't drink up eisel? eat a crocodile? I'll do't. Dost thou come here to whine? To outface me with leaping in her grave? Be buried quick with her, and so will I: And, if thou prate of mountains, let them throw Millions of.. | William Shakespeare | ||
6d3036a | RICHARD, DUKE OF GLOUCESTER: Why then I do but dream on sovereignty, Like one that stands upon a promontory And spies a far-off shore where he would tread, Wishing his foot were equal with his eye, And chides the sea that sunders him from thence, Saying, he'll lade it dry to have his way: So do I wish the crown, being so far off, And so I chide the means that keeps me from it, And so, I say, I'll cut the causes off, Flattering me with impos.. | William Shakespeare | ||
e2280cf | HAMLET To be or not to be--that is the question: 64 Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer 65 The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, 66 Or to take arms against a sea of troubles 67 And, by opposing, end them. To die, to sleep-- 68 No more--and by a sleep to say we end 69 The heartache and the thousand natural shocks 70 That flesh is heir to--'tis a consummation 71 Devoutly to be wished. To die, to sleep-- 72 To sleep, perchance t.. | William Shakespeare | ||

ae5450d | Within seven months, more than 600,000 Armenians were massacred. Of the 500,000 deported during that same period, more than 400,000 perished as a result of the brutalities and privations of the southward march into Syria and Mesopotamia. By September as many as a million Armenians were dead, the victims of what later became known as genocide, later still as ethnic cleansing. A further 200,000 were forcibly converted to Islam. | Martin Gilbert | ||

aa8e5ef | In England we have come to rely upon a comfortable time-lag of fifty years or a century intervening between the perception that something ought to be done and a serious attempt to do it. | H. G. Wells | ||
689727e | That these man-like creatures were in truth only bestial monsters, mere grotesque travesties of men, filled me with a vague uncertainty of their possibilities which was far worse than any definite fear. | H.G. Wells | ||
