1 " Oh, Sweetie. No one ever gets through their TBR list. For every book you finish, you'll add five more. That's just the way it works. "
― Leisa Rayven , Wicked Heart (Starcrossed, #3)
2 " Sometimes fate is what you make it, and I'm making my life with you. "
3 " But this kiss? It's ruined me. This is the type of kiss I never knew existed. It's like falling and flying, all in the same moment. "
4 " Heartache doesn't teach you to be resilient. It teaches you to protect your fragility. It teaches you to fear love. And it draws a bright red circle around all the ways you've failed as a person and laughs while you cry. "
5 " See, that's the problem. Love is an asshole. It doesn't care about people's plans. It's never convenient. It crawls inside of you at the most ridiculous times and makes you feel, whether you like it or not. And even long after the time when you should have learned to stop loving someone, it just keeps holding on to them. Doesn't it? "
6 " I’ve spent years trying to block out how you look. And sound. And feel. And before this show, I’d gotten pretty good at it. But now, here you are, in front of me every day, and it blows my mind that a single touch from you still has the power to ruin me. And whenever it happens, I forget about the choices I’ve made, and the circus my life’s become, and I want you. Consequences be damned. "
7 " I would climb him like a tree and bang him like a screen door in a hurricane. "
8 " I’ve missed you, Liss. It hurts not seeing you for all those years, but this? You being right here and me not being able to have you? Hurts so much more. "
9 " God…this,” he whispers against my lips. “You. You’re everything. "
10 " In fact, my yoga pants should be called “sitting around eating cheese pants.” A longer title, sure, but more accurate. "
11 " He puts his hand on the wall next to my head and moves closer. I put my other hand on his chest. Not to stop him. Just to feel more of his body.He closes his eyes and exhales before looking at me again. “If you’re feeling even half of the attraction I’m feeling toward you, then, no, I don’t think you could resist. In fact, I think if I kissed you right now, we’d barely make it through that door before tearing each other’s clothes off and fucking like there’s no tomorrow. "
12 " I’m not saying goodbye,” he says as he shoves his hands in his pockets. “Because this isn’t over. One day, fate’s going to fix this. Bring us back together. I believe that. "
13 " Every day, I try to ignore my attraction to you. Every…damn…day. I tell myself I’m over you and can’t have these feelings, but it doesn’t help. Nothing helps. "
14 " Ask me to give up a limb and I swear, I’ll find a way to do it. But don’t ask me to live without you anymore. I can’t. I’m so goddamn in love with you, it hurts. "
15 " Strong fingers dig into my neck muscles, and I bite back a groan. “Oh, my God.”“Come on now. We’re past that sort of formality. You can call me Liam. "
16 " And I have the strongest feeling that having part of you is going to be better than having all of anybody else. "
17 " To put it simply, he makes me swoon like it’s his damn job.He’s the only man who’s ever affected me like this, and it’s safe to say I hold it against him. It’s inconvenient and rude. "
18 " Lord of My Underpants,” Liam Quinn. "
19 " So, you and Quinn going to finally seal the deal tonight?” Josh asks. “Because God knows, if I have to witness one more second of you two panting over each other, I’m going to lock you both in a room until someone comes. "
20 " I’ve never ached for a woman as much as I ache for you … I feel like I can’t get enough of you, no matter how hard I try. "
