Faefever (Fever, #3) QUOTES

1 " It's just that in the Deep South, women learn at a young age that when the world is falling apart around you, it's time to take down the drapes and make a new dress. "

― Karen Marie Moning , Faefever (Fever, #3)

2 " Driving a hot car is a lot like sex to me, or a lot like I keep thinking sex should be: A total body experience, overwhelming, to all the senses, taking you places you've never been, packing a punch that leaves you breathless and touches your soul. The Viper was way more satisfying then my last boyfriend. "

― Karen Marie Moning , Faefever (Fever, #3)

3 " He calls me his Queen of the Night. He shows me the wonders in this incredible city. He encourages me to find my own way, and to choose what I think is right or wrong.

And the sex, God, the sex! I never knew what sex was until him! It’s not soft music and candlelight, a choice, a deliberate action.

It’s as involuntary as breathing, and as impossible not to do. It’s slammed up against a wall in a dark alley, or flat on my back on cold concrete because I can’t stand one more second without him. It’s on my hands and knees, dry-mouthed, heart-in-my-throat, waiting for the moment he touches me, and I’m alive again. It’s punishing and purifying, velvet and violent, and it makes everything else melt away, until nothing matters but getting him inside me and I wouldn’t just die for him—I’d kill for him, too.

Like I did tonight. "

4 " We stand strong, or we cower. We emerge victorious, tempered by our trials , or fractured by a permanent, damming fault line. "

― Karen Marie Moning , Faefever (Fever, #3)

5 " I think sex with him might undo my essential cellular cohesion. "

― Karen Marie Moning , Faefever (Fever, #3)

6 " Women fight differently from men. You couldn’t get me to hurt a woman’s breasts for anything. I know how tender my own are when I’m PMSing. Besides, we feed babies with them. "

― Karen Marie Moning , Faefever (Fever, #3)

7 " Barrons was powerful, broodingly good-looking, insanely wealthy, frighteningly intelligent, and had exquisite taste, not to mention a hard body that emitted some kind of constant low-level charge. Bottom line: He was the stuff of heroes.

And psychotic killers. "

― Karen Marie Moning , Faefever (Fever, #3)

8 " The key to resisting Voice," Barrons instructed, "is finding that place inside you no one else can touch.

"You mean the sidhe-seer place?" I said, hopping like a one-legged chicken.

"No, a different place. All people have it. Not just sidhe-seers. We're born alone and we die alone. That place."

"I don't get it."

"I know. That's why you're hopping. "

9 " Since I’ve been on my own, I’ve been eating a lot of popcorn, cereal, instant noodles, and snack bars. I have a hot plate in my bedroom, a microwave, and a small fridge. That’s the kind of kitchen I know how to get around in. "

― Karen Marie Moning , Faefever (Fever, #3)

10 " Then why was his tongue in your mouth? Was he conducting a clinical test of your gag reflex?" He smiled, but not nicely. "How is your gag reflex, Ms. Lane? Are you a hair trigger?"

Barrons likes to use sexual innuendo to try to shut me up. I think he expects the well-raised southern belle in me will think eew and back off. Sometimes, I do think eew, but I don't back off. "I'm a spitter, if that's what you're asking." I flashed him a too-sweet smile.

"Didn't look that way to me. I think you're a swallower. His tongue was halfway to China and you were still taking it."

"Jealous? "

― Karen Marie Moning , Faefever (Fever, #3)

11 " When Barrons looks at me like that, it rattles me. Lust, in those ancient, obsidian eyes, offers no trace of humanity. Doesn’t even bother trying. Savage Mac wants to invite it to come out and play. I think she’s nuts. Nuts, I tell you. "

― Karen Marie Moning , Faefever (Fever, #3)

12 " Nobody looks good in their darkest hour. But it’s those hours that make us what we are. We stand strong, or we cower. We emerge victorious, tempered by our trials, or fractured by a permanent, damning fault line.
<***>
It’s not fiction, and there’s no escape. The walls between the human world and Faery are coming down—and I hate to break it to you, but these fairies are so not Tinkerbells.
<***>
I’ve seen things that would make your skin crawl. I’ve done things that make my skin crawl. "

― Karen Marie Moning , Faefever (Fever, #3)

13 " Through the annals of history, women have paid a price for protection. One day, I won’t have to. "

― Karen Marie Moning , Faefever (Fever, #3)

14 " Keep watching rainbows, baby. Keep looking at the sky. You find what you look for. If you go hunting good in the world, you’ll find it. If you go hunting evil … well, don’t. "

― Karen Marie Moning , Faefever (Fever, #3)

15 " Peki Mac.Rahatla.''
Mac mı? Bana Mac mi demişti gerçekten? Nefes almaya uğraştım.''Ölecek miyim?'' diye hırıldayarak sordum.''Beni öldürecek misin?''
''Sana rahatlamanı söylüyorum, sen ise kalkmış seni öldüreceğimi mi düşünüyorsun? Tam bir kadın mantıksızlığıyla davranıyorsun.'' Sonradan aklına gelmiş gibi ekledi. ''Artık serbestçe konuşabilirsin.''
''Öyle davranmıyorum.Bana Mac diye hitap ettiğin iki seferde de ölümle pençeleşiyordum.Şu anda da etrafta başka bir tehdit unsuru olmadığına göre, beni öldürmek üzere olmalısın.Kesinlikle çok mantıklı bir çıkarım.''
''Sana Mac diye hitap etmedim.''
''Evet ettin.''
''Sana Bayan Lane diye hitap ettim.''
''Hayır etmedin.''
''Evet ettim. "

― Karen Marie Moning , Faefever (Fever, #3)

16 " Aklınızda belli bir araba var mı Bayan Lane?''
O gece mavi yakayı istiyordum.''Viper.''
''Onu almanıza niçin izin vereyim?''
''Çünkü bana borçlusun.''
''Size neden borçluyum?''
''Çünkü sana tahammül ediyorum. "

17 " Nobody looks good in their darkest hours. But it's those hours that make us what we are. "

18 " I moistened my lips. His gaze fixed on them. I think I stopped breathing.
He jerked so sharply away that his long dark coat sliced air, and turned his back to me. “Was that an invitation, Ms.Lane?”
“If it was?” I asked, astonishing myself. What did I think I was doing?
“I don’t do hypotheticals. Little girl. "

― Karen Marie Moning , Faefever (Fever, #3)

19 " As I moved deeper into the room, his gaze dropped to my feet, and worked its way back to my face. I was wearing faded jeans, boots, and a snug pink Juicy T-shirt I got on sale at TJ Maxx last summer that said I’m a Juicy girl.
“I bet you are,” he murmured. "

20 " Truth hurts. But lies can kill. "
