Quotes from Price of a Kiss

“If you love someone enough, you can make them invincible. Like your feelings for them are so strong they work as a magical shield, protecting them from all harm and pain.”
― Linda Kage, quote from Price of a Kiss

“You’re the warm sun that shines when everything else is dark,” he went on, lifting his hands to rest them on the wall on either side of my face. “A smile and a hug in a roomful of disapproval. You’re…” Wincing, he pressed his forehead against mine. “You’re everything.”
― Linda Kage, quote from Price of a Kiss

“Can I touch you?”
His lashes closed, resting on the tops of his tanned, sculpted cheeks as his smile grew broad. “You don’t have to ask.” I reached out immediately but paused within inches of contact. He must’ve sensed my hesitation because he reopened his eyes. “What’s wrong?”
I swallowed, utterly overwhelmed. “I don’t know where to start.”
Mason’s gaze warmed . He wrapped strong warm fingers around my wrist and drew my palm forward, leading me where he wanted my hand to follow. When he set it on the center of his chest, right over his heart and pressed my flesh to his as if fingerprinting my soul to his. I blinked back gratified tears.
“Start here. No one’s ever touched me here before.”
― Linda Kage, quote from Price of a Kiss

“Are you seriously going to walk out of here right now after I just confessed my soul to you, cool as a cucumber, without reciprocating at all?”
“What?” I sent him a blank look. Then I rolled my eyes and reached out to ruffle his amazing hair. “Mason Lowe, if you don’t know by now that I’m attracted as hell to you, you’re freaking blind.”
He stared at me a moment before muttering, “There. Was that so hard to admit?”
― Linda Kage, quote from Price of a Kiss

“See, your laugh is exactly what's keeping me away, woman. I just want to kiss those lips and hoard that sound all to myself.”
― Linda Kage, quote from Price of a Kiss

“I took my first sip. When I moaned, he arched an amused brow. “Would you two like to be alone?”
I tucked my latte protectively close. “Yes. Could you give us fifteen, twenty minutes tops? I have a feeling things are about to get real obscene up in this house.”
― Linda Kage, quote from Price of a Kiss

“Every woman treats me that way, Reese. I’m not a person to them. I’m just…a good time or something vile to be avoided at all costs. And then you came along and you…you hugged me. You are the first person who sees me, Mason, not sex for sale.”
― Linda Kage, quote from Price of a Kiss

“So, you don’t give out freebies? Like ever?” That just sounded so bizarre to me. I would’ve thought a gigolo would be a complete man-whore, even off the clock.

But when his jaw went dead still as he stopped chewing and he said, “Are you…asking for one?”
― Linda Kage, quote from Price of a Kiss

“Holy guacamole. Was that a double entendre? I swear that was a double entendre. Someone hold my panties on for me because Mason Lowe was freaking flirting with me, using double entendres.”
― Linda Kage, quote from Price of a Kiss

“If I touch you right now, that’s it. I won’t be able to stop. I wanted to make sure you have all your playtime in before I get started.”
“Aww … Thinking of me first. That’s so sweet. Thank you.”
“Yeah, I’m a frigging saint. Now will you please touch my dick like you mean it before the damn thing explodes?”
― Linda Kage, quote from Price of a Kiss

“You’re the warm sun that shines when everything else is dark,”
― Linda Kage, quote from Price of a Kiss

“You might not have charged me a fee, but kissing you is too big of a price for me. I didn’t sign up for this. Now let me go.”
― Linda Kage, quote from Price of a Kiss

“Eva was right. I could never deserve you. You’re too good for me. You’re out of my reach. You’re…you’re Reese Randall.”

“You’re wrong. I’m not.” I wasn’t really Reese Randall, and I certainly wasn’t out of his reach. “All you have to do is stretch out your hand, Mason.” Pressing my palm against my chest, I whispered, “I’m right here.”
― Linda Kage, quote from Price of a Kiss

“So...goddamn...good. But I don’t want it to end yet.”...
“Oh screw it.” I dug my fingers into his firm ass and moved with him, urging him to quicken the pace. “We can have long, drawn-out slow sex later.”
He groaned again, though this was more like a whimper. “Promise?”
I nodded. “Yes. Yes. Right now, just light me up. Please”
“On it.” His hips slammed against mine. And...damn.”
― Linda Kage, quote from Price of a Kiss

He shook his head. “I can’t. I’m tainted.”
― Linda Kage, quote from Price of a Kiss

“His sense of responsibility toward his family was everything to him. Everything. He didn't care if his obligations made him do things that caused him to feel trapped or had him feeling dirty until he hated a part of himself. He wasn't going to stop taking care of Dawn and Sarah in the only way he knew how. He had sold his soul to ensure every bill his mother forgot to pay was taken care of, even the fricking babysitter's bill.”
― Linda Kage, quote from Price of a Kiss

“That sucks. He can ask you out and take you to dinner and try to steal a goodnight kiss. He can go as far into it as you’ll let him take you. And I can’t even compete.”
― Linda Kage, quote from Price of a Kiss

“You're quirky ... and yet conventional. Innocent but worldly. Reserved yet outgoing. Candid yet guarded. Trendy but also practical. And childlike while still managing to be mature. It's like ... you're the perfect contradiction.”
― Linda Kage, quote from Price of a Kiss

“I couldn’t wait to meet his cherry-popping, cougar pimp landlady again. Said no one ever.”

― Linda Kage, quote from Price of a Kiss

“He touched me with such reverence, his fingertips light and curious as they cruised up my spine while his mouth was bold and knowing, his tongue lavishing taut, puckered skin with deadly precision.”
― Linda Kage, quote from Price of a Kiss

“I melted, my emotions softening into this huge, gooey ball of adoration. I wanted to laugh and cry and hug him until I decided having a boyfriend who slept with scores of other women for money wasn't really that big of a deal.”
― Linda Kage, quote from Price of a Kiss

“I didn’t care. The spider was still alive and that was not cool. “What am I supposed to kill it with?” he demanded, looking harassed. My hysteria rising to titanic proportions, I shrieked, “With your big freaking foot, you idiot. You have what, like, a size twenty shoe. Smash that thing.” “I wear a size twelve.” He scowled, clearly”
― Linda Kage, quote from Price of a Kiss

“I reached out and petted the length of it with two fingers as if timidly greeting a live, rabid animal.

Sweat beaded on Mason's brow. He looked tortured, but he appeared to love every second of his suffering. "You are such a comedian. You know that's not what I meant by touch it. It's not a freaking dog."

"Um, no. I'd say this thing is more the size of a bull.”
― Linda Kage, quote from Price of a Kiss

“I will find work wherever I am. But I won't find another you.”

― Linda Kage, quote from Price of a Kiss

― Linda Kage, quote from Price of a Kiss
