1 " The music filled the room, making the windows shake. I'd forgotten how much I loved to dance. It didn't take long before I was letting go of Princess Catherine and dancing like Cathy-and it felt good. Free and fun. I bumped butts with Patricia, wrapped a boa around Chadwick, and laughed as Daniel did the YMCA. "

2 " Angel, shiny armor just means the knight never went to battle." He kissed my temple. "And I'd fight dragons for you. "
3 " Blood doesn't make someone family. Love is what makes a family. "
4 " Things change, jobs change. But I wouldn't trade the memories... If you really have that special something, hold on to him. "
5 " Thinking about my love life, or rather the lack of my love life, was depressing. The chances of finding someone who would love me for me were so slim, they practically didn't exist. What Alex had found with Sam was a miracle, I'd be lucky if I found someone who didn't make me want to puke when I saw them. "
6 " There was something special about the way his eyes met mine, the way his hands felt on my skin. It hit me like a ton of bricks when I realized that it was because he saw me, the woman, not the princess. I never thought that would happen, and the feeling was intoxicating. "
7 " Look, I like you." Blunt was the only way to handle this type of situation. "But if we date-even just one date to the movies, or a quick lunch in a hospital cafeteria, you're going to become tabloid fodder. Strangers meet and decide to date all the time. People have one-night stands all the time. Couplesbreak up all the time. But with me? Or anyone in my family? All of that makes front-page news. "
8 " I love you, Cathy. I love every angle, every side, every part of you."Tears filled my eyes. "I love you too. "
9 " You sure are determined to get his clothes off." She shook her head."I am not!" My words were a little too loud. Great. I sounded guilty. "It was an accident." "Right." She sat down on one of the stools. "That's why you were bust stroking anything. Oh God, I had stroked his chest. I was making sure I hadn't hurt him. "
10 " I stared down into his handsome face while my mouth gaped like a fish. Oh my good God. No wonder I had thought he was a stripper. I had asked him to take his clothes off. If I had been alone I would have beat my head against the wall. An image of Sam stopping his hands fluttered through my mind and my cheeks heated. I really had told him to take his clothes off. "
11 " You, know, I always thought I wanted a knight in shining armor... But I like my dashing rouge much better.... Angel, shiny armor just means the knight never went to battle.... "
