“He was standing right behind us, the epitome of stillness, one hand on the back of the sofa, dark hair slicked back from his face, his expression arrogant and cold. No surprise there. Barrons is arrogant and cold. He’s also wealthy, strong, brilliant, and a walking enigma. Most women seem to find him drop-dead sexy, too. Thankfully I’m not most women. I don’t get off on danger. I get off on a man with strong moral fiber. The closest Barrons ever gets to fiber is walking down the cereal aisle at the grocery store.” Jericho BarronsFever SeriesBloodfever Book:Bloodfever Source: Bloodfever
“It’s all black and white to you, isn’t it?” “Gray is but another word for light black. Gray is never white. Only white is white. There are no shades of it.” Fever SeriesBloodfever Book:Bloodfever Source: Bloodfever
“Did you fuck him?” “Ah!” I yelled. “Of course not!” I rubbed my face with both hands and kept it buried there a minute. “Wouldn’t I be an addict if I did?” I raised my face. Barrons studied me, dark eyes cold. “Not if he protected you.” “They can do that? Really?” “Try not to sound so intrigued, Ms. Lane.” Mackayla LaneJericho BarronsFever SeriesBloodfever Book:Bloodfever Source: Bloodfever
“Why have you chosen to spare me?” “I want us to be…what is your word? Friends.” “Psychotic rapists don’t have friends.” “I was unaware you were a psychotic rapist or I would not have offered.” “Ha.” Mackayla LaneFever SeriesV LaneBloodfever Book:Bloodfever Source: Bloodfever
“I must have stood there for five minutes trying to talk myself into opening it. The unknown is a vast paralyzing limbo. I’d like to tell you that the monster under the bed is rarely as bad as your fear of it, but in my experience it’s almost always worse.” Mackayla LaneFever SeriesBloodfever Book:Bloodfever Source: Bloodfever
“I’m heir to the “sex is just sex” generation and I hate it. Not only friends have sex, people who don’t like each other have sex. I’d once caught Natalie and Rick, two people I know for a fact can’t stand each other, banging away in the bathroom at The Brickyard. When later I’d asked her what had changed, she’d said nothing, she still couldn’t stand him, but he’d sure looked hot tonight. Doesn’t anybody get that sex is what you make it, and if you treat it like nothing, it is?” Mackayla LaneFever SeriesBloodfever Book:Bloodfever Source: Bloodfever
