3 " Some people say that everything happens for a reason. Some people believe in fate or destiny. Others believe in luck. Don’t forget about Karma – what goes around comes around, or the old adage “Do unto others as you would do unto yourself.” Many say that you hold your future in your hands; that only you can choose the path your life takes. If you don’t like something, then change it. Easy as that. Some people believe that life is life and wherever you end up and however you got there is just the way it’s supposed to be. "
4 " Maddox is his polar opposite. He has just as many muscles, but on him they look huge and imposing. His brown hair is longer than Zeke’s, sporting that messy look like he was running his hands through it all day—sex hair. "
5 " No, not at all. Looks like we're both here to learn how to be the best at getting people off. "
6 " Sugar,” Beck interrupts my ruckus with a wink, “if chocolate is more fulfilling than sex, then someone isn’t doing their job right. "
7 " inhale and yell, “Fuuuuuuu…….dge.” Ugh, crap. I hear Eric chuckling behind me. “I didn’t tell you to yell what you want to lick all over my body, sweetheart. "
8 " In life, there are those who save us, both in big ways and in small. Sometimes that means being set free from a dark, windowless room, or being pulled out of a burning building. More often, it means being saved from yourself, and made to finally believe that letting someone love you, isn't just a big lie that you're unwilling to tell. "
9 " Men like their women full and satisfied. Always eat on dates, that way they know you won’t get tired…for later. "
10 " Love doesn't always make sense. And that's the great beauty of it, the great mystery–the thing cynics who scoff at so-called 'insta-love' would bottle if they could. But you can't manufacture mystery, honey. "
11 " I should have bolted out of that hotel like a bat out of hell the second I laid eyes on him, standing there in all his muscled, male beauty. He was the devil. A sometimes sweet, funny devil, true. But wasn't that just like Lucifer himself? That's how he lured you in, ready to give up your very soul for one taste of those sinful lips, flashing that damn dimple for extra measure. "
12 " There are winds of destiny that blow when we least expect them. Sometimes they gust with the fury of a hurricane, sometimes they barely fan one’s cheek. But the winds cannot be denied, bringing as they often do a future that is impossible to ignore.” Nicholas Sparks, Message in a Bottle "
13 " I couldn't identify exactly what I was so angry about other than the fact that Carson had managed to tilt my world on its axis–again. I should have bolted out of that hotel like a bat out of hell the second I laid eyes on him, standing there in all his muscled, male beauty. He was the devil. A sometimes sweet, funny devil, true. But wasn't that just like Lucifer himself? That's how he lured you in, ready to give up your very soul for one taste of those sinful lips, flashing that damn dimple for extra measure. "
14 " How about you stay over at my place, and tomorrow morning we figure out what to do with your car?” “I don’t know.” I looked away, unsure of what to say. “I promise I won’t bite.” He grinned mischievously. “That’s not a worry I have.” “Unless you want me to bite, of course.” “No, thanks.” “I guess vampires aren’t cool now?” “Vampires?” I frowned, wondering if he was high or something. “Isn’t Twilight all the craze? Don’t all you girls love that Edward Pattinson guy or something? "
15 " The blast of cold, snowy air hit us and I wrapped my arms around him, putting my face in the crook of his neck, breathing him in and moaning at the scent of his skin right against my face, that individual smell that I would recognize until the day I died. If I was put in a dark room with one hundred other men, I could locate him by scent alone. That scent belonged to me. "
16 " And I really, really like how you make me feel–like if you looked at me every day, the way you're looking at me right now, I could do anything, be anything, be more. "
17 " Life doesn’t always hand you the happy ever after you dreamt of. Sometimes, living happily ever after is a choice, not a given. Live happy with what you have – not what you thought you would have. "
18 " Death—I’ve always thought the hospital smelled like death. It’s a smell you never forget and one I have always hated. "
