“Can I get a lock for my tent?

Bears can't unzip tents, Lana.

Well, chainsaw psychos who wander the woods looking for young girls all alone to chop up into pieces can.

There are no chainsaw psychos! I can't believe you've never been camping. It's safe, Lana. I promise.

Easy for you to say. You'll be snuggled up safely in the arms of Beau Vincent. I'm more than positive he could take on a black bear.”
― Abbi Glines, quote from The Vincent Brothers


“Let me explain it to you then. I just had a beautiful girl trust me enough to touch her and see her in a way no one else ever has. I got to hold her and watch her and feel her as she came apart in my arms. It was like nothing else I'd ever experienced. She was breathtaking and she was responding to me. She wanted me. I was the one making her spiral out of control.”
― Abbi Glines, quote from The Vincent Brothers


“Once, not too long ago, you were the good brother. You were careful with everyone's feelings. It was fucking ridiculous how polite and thoughtful you were. You've changed man. Cant believe I'm saying this, but I miss that guy. He was someone I always admired. I couldn't be proud of my choices, but I was always so damn proud of yours.”
― Abbi Glines, quote from The Vincent Brothers


“My forgiving you doesn't make my heart hurt less. It takes awhile to heal.”
― Abbi Glines, quote from The Vincent Brothers


“Ashton grinne and raised her eyebrows. "I can't believe you're telling me a Vincent boy brought you to Grove, Alabama and not me."
Shrugging, I returned her smile. "They're heard to resist."
"Don't I know it.”
― Abbi Glines, quote from The Vincent Brothers



“Adjusting to Beau being a caveman over a girl had been almost as hard as seeing him with Ash. Beau didn't do jealous, not until Ashton had become his. Now he was a freaking lunatic.”

― Abbi Glines, quote from The Vincent Brothers

― Abbi Glines, quote from The Vincent Brothers



“Did you really think I would be this excited about college if I thought I'd be leaving my girl behind?”
― Abbi Glines, quote from The Vincent Brothers


“Maybe I'm not good for you. Maybe what I feel is wrong. Because I did love Ashton. She was all I needed... but never did I feel the uncontrollable desire to get her underneath me. Never did I make up reasons to get her to wrap her legs around me so I could feel her pressed up against me. Never. He swallowed hard. "Never did I think about being inside her”
― Abbi Glines, quote from The Vincent Brothers


“I've been thinking about this mouth all day" he said before covering my lips with his. I licked at his bottom lip and he opened for me, letting me leisurely taste him. The gentle pressure of his mouth was perfect and made me a little dizzy. His fingers slip up my thigh until both hands were gripping my butt. One of his fingers traced the edge of my panties. "I really like this skirt," he murmured against my lips. I really liked it too at the moment. My breath was coming in short gasps as he slid one hand inside the edge of my panties. He gripped my bare butt with one hand while he slid his other slowly back down my thigh and shifted closer to my inner thigh. I liked what his next move would be. What I didn't know was if I was going to let it go that far. Then he moaned into my mouth as his fingers touched the inside of my thigh and my leg fell open of its own accord. The slow, easy kiss became frenzied as we both fought to calm our breathing. His hand inched higher and higher up my exposed thigh. The second his finger grazed the outside of my panties, I jerked in his hold, and something very close to pleading squeaked in my throat. Sawyer pulled back, and his accelerated breathing made me tingle with pleasure. I loved knowing I did that to him. He kissed down my neck until he met the curve of my shoulder. He went very still. His warm breath bathed my chest and neck. His hand slowly moved again. One lone finger slipped inside the edge of my panties and made direct contact. He murmured something against my neck, but I couldn't focus enough to understand. My brain was in a foggy haze, and my heart was about to pound out of my chest. The urge to move against the hand, which now cupped the crotch of my panties, was strong. But I waited while he eased his finger farther inside and gently ran it along the folds. "oh, oh, oh my god," I managed to get out in a breathless chant. "God, you're so warm," he whispered in a strained voice as he began kissing the spot where he had buried his head in my neck. When he slipped his other hand over my leg and pulled it farther open then reached down and pulled my panties to the side as he gently stroked me, I started to come apart in his arms. "That's it, baby," he encouraged me as I clung to him, calling his name and wanting it to never end.”
― Abbi Glines, quote from The Vincent Brothers


“This is new for me. I'm learning how to have a realtionship with someone other than Ashton. I made a horrible mistake. It was like a relapse. But you," I reached up and tucked the tear dampened hair that had worked its way loose behind her ear. "You touch a place inside of me that Ashton never did. I feel things with you I never felt for her. I loved her for a very long time. I can't help the fact I still want to be there if she needs me. Next time there is a choice to make it will be you I choose first. I can promise you that.”
― Abbi Glines, quote from The Vincent Brothers


“Don't. Please, just let me hold you a little bit longer," he mumbled into my hair”
― Abbi Glines, quote from The Vincent Brothers



“Sawyer: Alone in your tent? Um, no. You're in my tent”
― Abbi Glines, quote from The Vincent Brothers


“With you, things are different. I'm not sure what it is but when I'm with you, I feel something I've never felt before. I do want you. Bad. It surprises me and scares the shit out of me. Maybe I'm not good for you. Maybe what I feelis wrong. Because, I did love Ashton. She was all I needed...but never did I feel the uncontrollable desire to get her underneath me" His voice dropped, "Never did I make up reasons to get her to wrap her legs around me so I could feel her pressed up against me. Never," he swallowed hard. "Never, did I think about being inside her.”
― Abbi Glines, quote from The Vincent Brothers


“The fact I want...no, I need for us to be exclusive until we part ways when we head off to college”
― Abbi Glines, quote from The Vincent Brothers


“And let her think I don't care she's with you? No can do. She needs to know what I want”
― Abbi Glines, quote from The Vincent Brothers


“I'm not good for you. I don't know why you make me want you so bad. I was angry with myself when I said all that earlier. I was mad because I wanted you in a way I'd never experienced before. Before you, I just wanted to excel in football and school. I wanted my parents to be proud of me. But now, I want other things too. You get to me in a way I don't understand”
― Abbi Glines, quote from The Vincent Brothers



“You feel real good, Lana. Makes me forget everything else”
― Abbi Glines, quote from The Vincent Brothers


“Don't go getting all shy on me now, Lana," he drawled, squeezing my sides with his hands”
― Abbi Glines, quote from The Vincent Brothers


“I missed you so much, he replied in a more serious tone”
― Abbi Glines, quote from The Vincent Brothers


“Uno pensaría que después de los rechazos con los que he lidiado en mi vida, debería estar acostumbrada a ello. Pero no es nada fácil. En realidad no. Te hace cauteloso. Te hace cuidadoso de no hacerte ilusiones.”
― Abbi Glines, quote from The Vincent Brothers


“Justo cuando pensaba que las cosas se estaban poniendo mejor con cómo me sentía acerca de Ashton, siempre pasaba algo que me enviaba en espirales de vuelta al dolor. Por supuesto, se estaba poniendo más fácil y no era ni de cerca todo lo que había sido al principio, pero no se había ido del todo. Temía que jamás lo hiciera. Ashton siempre sería mi más grande error. No porque la hubiera amado, sino porque la había perdido.”
― Abbi Glines, quote from The Vincent Brothers

“I don’t want to screw this up, Julia. I don’t ever want to be a person who hurts you.”
― Charles Sheehan-Miles, quote from A Song for Julia


“We can’t see in the dark. There is nothing to light the way, so we stumble. We grope around hoping to find our way safe and sound. But there is nothing to grasp onto, and in the dark we can’t see those who could help us.”
― Quinn Loftis, quote from Sacrifice of Love


“He had been humiliated and treated like the white trash he was. Under the bedsheet that hides the identity of every Ku Klux Klansman is a cretinous, vicious, and childlike human being whose last holdout is his whites-only restroom.”
― James Lee Burke, quote from Wayfaring Stranger


“Charley looked over at him. "About how much you and Jesse have in common."

Jesse said, "Why don't you tell it, Bob; if you remember."

Bob inched forward in his chair. "Well, if you'll pardon my saying so, it is interesting, the many ways you and I overlap and whatnot. You begin with my daddy, J.T. Ford. J stands for James! And T is Thomas, meaning 'twin.' Your daddy was a pastor of the New Hope Baptist Church; my daddy was part-time pastor of a church at Excelsior Springs. You're the youngest of the three James boys; I'm the youngest of the five Ford boys. You had twins as sons, I had twins as sisters. Frank is four and a half years older than you, which incidentally is the difference between Charley and me, the two outlaws in the Ford clan. Between us is another brother, Wilbur here (with six letters in his name); between Frank and you was a brother, Robert, also with six letters. Robert died in infancy, as most everyone knows, and he was named after your father, Robert, who was remembered by your brother's first-born, another Robert. Robert, of course, is my Christian name. My uncle, Robert Austin Ford, has a son named Jesse James Ford. You have blue eyes; I have blue eyes. You're five feet eight inches tall; I'm five feet eight inches tall. We're both hot-tempered and impulsive and devil-may-care. Smith and Wesson is our preferred make of revolver. There's the same number of letters and syllables in our names; I mean, Jesse James and Robert Ford. Oh me, I must've had a list as long as your nightshirt when I was twelve, but I lost some curiosities over the years.”
― Ron Hansen, quote from The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford


“For man never reasons so much and becomes so introspective as when he suffers;”
― Luigi Pirandello, quote from Six Characters in Search of an Author

About BookQuoters

BookQuoters is a community of passionate readers who enjoy sharing the most meaningful, memorable and interesting quotes from great books. As the world communicates more and more via texts, memes and sound bytes, short but profound quotes from books have become more relevant and important. For some of us a quote becomes a mantra, a goal or a philosophy by which we live. For all of us, quotes are a great way to remember a book and to carry with us the author’s best ideas.

We thoughtfully gather quotes from our favorite books, both classic and current, and choose the ones that are most thought-provoking. Each quote represents a book that is interesting, well written and has potential to enhance the reader’s life. We also accept submissions from our visitors and will select the quotes we feel are most appealing to the BookQuoters community.

Founded in 2023, BookQuoters has quickly become a large and vibrant community of people who share an affinity for books. Books are seen by some as a throwback to a previous world; conversely, gleaning the main ideas of a book via a quote or a quick summary is typical of the Information Age but is a habit disdained by some diehard readers. We feel that we have the best of both worlds at BookQuoters; we read books cover-to-cover but offer you some of the highlights. We hope you’ll join us.
