| 5205e99 | He cuddled her back into his arms and sighed, closing his eyes as the flames in the gas logs danced like sugar-plums. Gracie watched them across his broad chest, feeling the happiness like a flame inside her heart. Somewhere she heard Christmas carols being sung and a dog barking in the distance. Closer, she heard the strong, regular beat of Jason's heart under her ear. Christmas wasn't only in her heart. It was in her arms. | hilarious-quotes | Diana Palmer | |

"If you make a move I don't like, you'll need a mortician," he said with pure malice, and abruptly spun the Colt with a professional skill that made Clark back up a step." | Diana Palmer | ||

"The day you fired him, John said that he had a mean temper and that he carried a loaded rifle everywhere with him. You...you be careful, okay?" She heard the soft expulsion of breath.

| 75d7fa1 | So she was still single. She wondered sometimes if Blake was being deprived of male companionship solely because of her attitudes. It bothered her, but she didn't want to change. "Snow is awesome," he sighed, using a word that he used to denote only the best things in his life. Cherry pie was awesome. So was baseball, if the Atlanta Braves were playing, and football if the Dallas Cowboys were. She smiled at his dark head, so like her own. H.. | Diana Palmer | ||

| 3da3c39 | Her green eyes went up to the sky. Well, it wasn't such a very bad place to die, she mused as drowsiness swept over her. She was near Winthrop, even though he didn't care anymore. Maybe he'd bury her here, and she'd be near him forever... | Diana Palmer | ||
| 5b9f2a0 | He groaned her name as he bent, his mouth so tender, so exquisitely gentle with hers that tears ran hotly down her cheeks. He was the world, and everything in it. She loved him so. | my-whole-world | Diana Palmer | |
| 71f3f7f | At least her nice boss was going to come out ahead, she thought. Gerald would marry Sadie and have a perfectly wonderful life while Nicky grew old taking dictation. It didn't bear thinking about. Maybe she could do what she'd threatened Winthrop with--get married and have children. Sure. Nothing easier. First, she had to find a man. And who could measure up to old stone face? | Diana Palmer | ||

"You must be devastated," he said, his expression hard. His sarcasm stung. She struggled to keep her composure. "Trapped here with children," he added bitingly.

"Oh," she exclaimed. "A wounded squirrel! Wait, I'll rush and get a bandage!" "Oh, for God's sake," Winthrop ground out. He slid the squirrel onto the sink for Mary to deal with and glared at Nicky as he eased out of his sheepskin jacket and hat, dumping them untidily on th.. | Diana Palmer | ||

Curious, he watched the man climb into a nice, late-model car and drive off. Why wasn't he in a company truck, like most technicians drove?" | Diana Palmer | ||
| f5d0c08 | He laughed. He had a similar appliance in his truck, a Lo-Jack, and where it was installed nobody knew. "I get it." "Good man. If you have any questions or concerns, you can call us, right?" "Right." | Diana Palmer | ||

He caught her hand in his and led her toward the white frame house. "What sort of plans?" she asked suspiciously. He paused with a secretive grin. "What do you think?" He leaned closer, threatening her mouth with his, so that when he spoke she felt his clean, minty breath on her l.. | Diana Palmer | ||
