“A friend confided to me recently that she wasn't sure if it was the 'change,' plain old PMS, or just a slow shift toward embracing her inner witch that is causing her to become progressively more irritated by everything her husband does.”

“She needs someone who will be everything for her: her friend, her boyfriend, her confidant, her lover and sometimes even her enemy.”

“Those eerie diamond eyes shifted over to her and she stilled, as if he's willed her to do so.There was a moment of silence. And then in a rough voice the man whose life she saved spoke four words that changed everything...changed her life, changed her destiny: "She. Comes. With. Me.”

“After Henry's treatment of her she wasn't sure that men could honestly love women but she wanted to believe it. She wanted to be told pretty things and for the frightening clip of her heart to slow to something more reasonable.”

“Had her conduct been more friendly toward me, I would have felt sorry for her. She was a pretty little thing.”

“She knew whose love she doubted. It wasn't her parents' and it wasn't her friends: It was her own. ”
