1 " Fucking men. "
― Kate Stewart , Flock (The Ravenhood, #1)
2 " My greatest hope is to be in all-consuming love. My biggest fear is to be in all-consuming love. "
3 " The only love I’ve ever known or craved is the kind that keeps me sick, sick with longing, sick with lust, sick with need, sick with grief. The distorted kind that leaves scars and jaded hearts. "
4 " He wants me to read, with him, in his bed. And what better way to pass a day in stormy weather than curling up with a gorgeous man and getting lost in the words. "
5 " My favorite books, love songs, movies, the ones that resonated with me, have kept me grieving long after I turned the last page, the notes faded out, or the credits rolled. "
6 " We crave the all-consuming, soul-stealing, drama-filled romances that are destined to end badly. "
7 " The truth is, I do expect a lot out of my love story and the man I’ll share it with. I expect passion and butterflies, and one or two fairy tale moments. When we fight, I want it to hurt. When we fuck, I want to feel it with every fiber of my being. When a man confesses his love to me, I expect him to mean it. I don’t want to question the words’ authenticity. I want to be claimed and owned and ruled and possessed by love. "
8 " In your heart of hearts, if you didn’t have to choose, would you? "
9 " If a man seems too good to be true, he usually is a liar. "
10 " That’s the novelty of fiction versus reality. You can’t re-live your own love story because, by the time you’ve realized you’re living it, it’s over. At least that was the case for me. "
11 " If you’re ever wondering what to do, that’s what you do. Whatever you fucking want, whenever you want, and you don’t apologize for it, not ever.”“This is insane.”“Welcome to my world,” he murmurs, before sealing me inside it with his kiss. "
12 " He turns another page and pulls an empty pillow closer to his shoulder. He wants me to read, with him, in his bed. And what better way to pass a day in stormy weather than curling up with a gorgeous man and getting lost in the words. "
13 " He’s everything I didn’t know I wanted in a man and so much more than I ever hoped to have. "
14 " My rainy days are yours, Dominic. If you want them.""It rains a lot here, "
15 " You can discover more about a person in an hour of play than you can in a year of conversation.” I gape at him because I’m pretty sure he just quoted Plato. "
16 " Now is now, later will eventually be now. Don’t be a slave to the insanity of keeping time and keeping up. Now is the only thing you have control over, and even so, it’s an illusion. "
17 " You can't re-live your own love story because, by the time you've realized you're living it, it's over. "
18 " Time itself is just an invisible line, a measure people made up, right? You know that. And while it’s good for reference, it’s also a major stress trigger, because you’re letting it control you. "
19 " I can promise you that only a quarter of how fast this is fucking beating has to do with chasing after your beautiful and crazy ass. "
20 " Somebody couldn’t keep a secret. "
