One More Time.

Because they were so much fun, I decided to do the "Best Lines" one more time.
Click on the titles to be taken to where you can purchase, if you're dying to read more.

Oh, and one other thing. Diane Alberts, you're the winner of the signed copy of Blown Away. I've sent you an email.

Now onto the lines.

~Ashes~

Raw thirst dominated Lyle’s fantasy. Cracked ribs, battered leg, ankle bruised by the shackle, three broken fingers, deep slashes along inner thighs and bone jutting through muscle in the left arm—it all lay crushed under the need for water. Images of shimmering droplets danced behind his crusted eyelids.

How long did it take for a male in his prime to die?


~One Knight in Brooklyn~

“You’re kind of a smartass, aren’t ya? Well, Lady Marianne, I have my own business. I’m in sales.”

Great. He probably dealt drugs. I asked for Robin Hood, but what do I get? Robby from the Hood.

I am so getting a refund.


~Madison’s Life Lessons~

Prequel to the Road to Hell Series

“Or what, Mr. Dominus, you’ll shove me in your trunk?”

Enjoying her humor, he teased, “Don’t tempt me.”

“I think I should warn you, threats, coupled with smiles don’t scare me.”

Micah laughed and she waved goodbye.






~Pandora’s Box~

Book One in the Road to Hell Series

“Mads….” He whispered furiously, the sound of a door opening and clicking closed coming through on his end, loud and clear. “You didn’t call me at two a.m. to tell me nothing was wrong.”

Madison expelled a long, shaky breath. “I think we made a mistake tonight.”








~Fairy Casanova~

“I’m going to peel your garment from your body, slowly”—she groaned again at the vivid imagery—“and taste every inch of your human flesh.”

Human flesh?

She froze against his body. What a strange thing to say.




~Damnation & Desire~

A 1NS Story

"Yup, sending a Wiccan to the Witch's Ball to get some—how the hell am I going to keep this discreet?"



~Designing Passion~

A 1NS Story

"If you believe in her so much, why haven't you utilized her services? As I recall, you're not so romantically fit yourself these days."



~November Rain~

This time Jess did move. She took a step forward and looked the officer directly in the eyes. “Sir, my husband is not dead. And if the Air Force is not taking every measure to find him, you can be sure I will shout it from the rooftops. Take it to every newspaper, radio, and television station in the damn country. You find my husband, and you find him now.”



~Seducing Liberty~


Okay, if he wanted to role-play, she’d role-play. She lifted her finger and waggled it at him, smiling. “Oh, I get it. You’re in character.”



 
 
 
 
 
 
 

~Awaken the Demon~


“Why is it I get the strangest urge to rip those clothes from your body and see what's hidden beneath all that black?” She ran a finger along his lapel. “Yet, at the same time, I want to vomit at your feet.”


 
A huge thanks to all the authors for sharing a few of their favorite lines.
 
Have a great Saturday.
