― Jennifer Ashley , The Untamed MacKenzie (MacKenzies & McBrides, #5.5)

2 " You are the beauty I’ve been seeking all my life. My existence was dark, grim, full of struggle, until you. You are the light that pushes the darkness away. When I’m with you, I can see my way, and I can breathe again. "

― Jennifer Ashley , The Untamed MacKenzie (MacKenzies & McBrides, #5.5)

4 " Listen to yourself. Poor martyred Louisa. I predict that Fellows will solve this murder and then sweep you off your feet." Daniel shrugged. "Well, the sweeping-you-off-your-feet part might take a little nudge. But he wants to do it. It's a beautiful thing to watch the way he looks at you. Fellows glared at Gil tonight as though he wanted to find a claymore, learn how to use it, and finish him off. Or just pull out a pistol and shoot him. "

7 " Their mouths falling together every time they were alone had to cease. "

― Jennifer Ashley , The Untamed MacKenzie (MacKenzies & McBrides, #5.5)

8 " On bottom... Fellows studied the blue and green Mackenzie plaid kilt laid out across his bed. He'd worn it before, at Christmas at Kilmorgan, feeling strange with wool wrapping his hips, air circulating his thighs. Scotsmen had to be mad. "

― Jennifer Ashley , The Untamed MacKenzie (MacKenzies & McBrides, #5.5)

9 " You were going to refuse him?"
"Yes."
"Why?"
I thought of you and I couldn't. "

― Jennifer Ashley , The Untamed MacKenzie (MacKenzies & McBrides, #5.5)

10 " Isabella is busy," Louisa said. "She's frantically finishing preparations for the supper ball, as you know. I ought to be helping her." She fixed Mac a look. "So should you."

"I am helping her. I'm minding the children. A good husband knows when to stay out of the way of the whirling household. "

― Jennifer Ashley , The Untamed MacKenzie (MacKenzies & McBrides, #5.5)

11 " Oh, Danny, it's so confusing."

"Not really. You're falling in love with him. Or are already in love with him."

"But am I? Or just... overwhelmed?"

"Love is overwhelming.[...] "

― Jennifer Ashley , The Untamed MacKenzie (MacKenzies & McBrides, #5.5)

12 " Mrs. Leigh-Waters looked even more distressed. "Oh, Louisa, you mustn't..."

"Speak ill of the dead?" Daniel asked, before Louisa could answer. "It's not the done thing, no, but death doesn't change what a person was in life. "

― Jennifer Ashley , The Untamed MacKenzie (MacKenzies & McBrides, #5.5)

15 " Isabella is busy,” Louisa said. “She’s frantically finishing preparations for the supper ball, as you know. I ought to be helping her.” She fixed Mac a look. “So should you.” “I am helping her. I’m minding the children. A good husband knows when to stay out of the way of the whirling household.” “A fine excuse,” Louisa said, feeling the first amusement she’d had in days. “Papa likes to hide up here,” Aimee said. “Morton and Mama bully him if he goes downstairs. "

― Jennifer Ashley , The Untamed MacKenzie (MacKenzies & McBrides, #5.5)

16 " As Fellows stood still, unwilling to reach for this little bundle he might drop, Alec’s face scrunched into a fierce scowl. Then he opened his mouth, and roared. Fellows had heard plenty of children cry in hunger, in fear, or in want of simple attention. Alec’s bellowing possessed the strength of his Highland ancestors, calling out for blood. "
