“That's Collin."She panicked."He can't see you!"Don't tell me you're afraid of your own brother?"Staton seemed to think that was funny.She hated the smirk that crept over his face.She shoved him."You want Collin to kill you?Hide."That made him laugh louder."Kill me?"Stop it,"she warned him,or he'll hear you."You think I should be afraid of your brother?I'm immortal."Collin's heavy steps filled the downstairs hallway.Her heart raced.Why was life so complicated?”

“Stanton emerged from the shadows. "So your brother thinks you need a boyfriend?"he teased. "Stop.”

“The bruises on my arm?"she asked.From pulling you up,"he explained."I'm sorry."He touched her arm as if he were trying to take away the pain.”

“Life is like riding a bicycle. You get nowhere standing up, so get up on that seat and go!”

“And then what would she say? I just told your brother that I love him, and I'm afraid that he hates me? I can't be alone with Turner because I'm afraid he might ravish me? I can't be alone with Turner because I'm afraid I might ravish him.”

“Maybe hallucinations are just another reality that we don't see most of the time”

“there won't be any pain, he promised. Only an eternity together. Come back to me. (Stanton, book #5)”
