― Kresley Cole, quote from If You Deceive

“And he'd railed at her, his voice booming so loud the bed had seem to shake. "You canna do this - take my goddamned heart and then leave me! You think I will no' follow?"
She knew he was constantly there, was aware of his movement and comprehended his words, but she couldn't seem to open her heavy eyelids or speak.

At night, he would wrap his body around hers, keeping her warm, whispering against her hair, "You enjoy being contrary. Then prove them all wrong and get better." He'd clutched her hip, then balled his fist there.”
― Kresley Cole, quote from If You Deceive

“Not to marry, know love, or bind, their fate;
Your line to die for never seed shall take.
Death and torment to those caught in their wake,
unless each son finds his forechosen mate...
For his true lady alone his life and heart can save.”
― Kresley Cole, quote from If You Deceive

"With a man of your advanced years?"
Advanced years? By God, I am going to throttle her.”
― Kresley Cole, quote from If You Deceive

“I've a sense for these things. Tonight you're aching for a man."
At that, she glanced away. "You might be right, Scot," she said casually, then faced him once more. Her voice a purr, she said, "But are you the man I await...where I ache?”
― Kresley Cole, quote from If You Deceive

She laughed without humor. "Spoken like a man who's never missed one."
