“You might be surrounded by clouds, but you'll be like sunshine to me.”

“Don't worry, little dhampir. You might be surrounded by clouds, but you'll always be like sunshine to me.”

“And hey, if I keep loving you, maybe you'll eventually crack and love me too.”

“What are you, Rose Hathaway? Are you real? You're a dream within a dream. I'm afraid touching you will make me wake up. You'll disappear.”

“Sunshine had never tasted so sweet as it did at that moment.”

“I loved you! I loved you and you destroyed me. You took my heart and ripped it up. You might as well have staked me! I. Loved. You. And you used me the whole time. (Adrian Ivashkov)”

“Rose and Dimitri moved almost as one entity, like a matched pair of wolfes or lions, both wary and deadly as they studied their surroundings, taking no detail or person for granted.”
