“Kiss those cuffs good-bye." Lula from "Hard Eight" By Janet Evonavich”
“Will your dad freak if I kiss you good-bye?” he asked.”
“You sure you don’t want to kiss me good-bye, baby?”
“Look at this limp cravet. And the sad state of those cuffs. I can hardly bring myself to look upon them.”
“Good-bye,' he said with sudden force, and his eyes gleamed with their last light. 'Good-bye.... Listen ... you know I didn't kiss you then.... Breathe on the dying lamp, and let it go out ...”
“Okay, this was kissing. Serious kissing. Not just a kiss before moving out, not a good-bye, this was Hello, sexy, and wow, she’d never even suspected that it could feel this way.”
