A mind is like a puzzle; you must unlock it to read its hidden secrets.

I lived for those moments when we were together, those few times in my life that I actually felt alive.

I’m tired of being your best friend. I’m tired of being second best. I won’t settle for that anymore. It’s all or nothing, Schuyler. You have to decide. Him or me.- Oliver Hazzard-Perry

I don’t need anything to get high. I’m high on life.

I always thought of vampires, especially the young-adult ones, as a metaphor for sex – sucking blood, forbidden, taboo. I think they just ooze sex. Vampires are all the big themes in life in one...

You may be to call up the entire encyclopedia, but a brain with no heart and no reasoning .. well, nothing is more meaningless.

Jack Force was more than she had ever dared wish for, and he was better than a dream or a fantasy because he was real. He was far from perfect, moody and distant at times,...

He knew what it was like to love one who did not–or could not–love you back. But he’d had no choice. None of them did.

But there’s always a first time for everything

I haven’t paid for anything since I became famous.

Instead of fearing the future, I should live and enjoy the present, she told herself.

As long as she could remember who she was, she was okay. She wouldn’t go crazy. At least not today.

No one’s happy here, you know that. But I am content, and maybe that’s enough for me.

Kingsley nodded. ‘Of course. Sophia always did say wisdom had to be earned.

I was always a sci-fi and fantasy geek. I was in the ‘Lord of the Rings’ club and all my cool friends made fun of me.

Listen, Legs, I’m going to die anyway. I’m human. And I don’t know about you, but I don’t believe in visions of the future. I believe we choose our own destiny. You didn’t give me...

This is not some silly game…This is life and death Angels and demons.

Dude you scare me sometimes! You’re all vampire superwoman

Every Valentine’s Day, the student council sponsered a holiday fundraiser by selling roses that would be delievered in class. The roses came in four colors:white, yellow, red, pink, and the subtleties of thier meaning were...

Once you start telling people you’re famous, they believe you.

It wasn’t a lie, not at all like one of those lies she told herself all the time, like This is the last drink of the evening, or I’m not going to set the bitch’s...

Oliver liked to play the part of disaffected youth, but he liked shopping in SoHo even more.

I know you. I know this isn’t you. And even if it is, I still love you. As much as I always have. You will always be mine. I will always love you, I promised...

I still love you. I will always love you, and that is all that matters. I will forgive you anything, and I will forgive you this.

As an author you hope your characters have sparks but truly in the end they have minds of their own!

Was he hungry? He’d had an enormous breakfast, but the transition from the glimpse had taken a lot out of him. Did they serve lunch in Hell? Should he have packed a snack? Why was...

That was the problem these days–everything was considered disposable–clothes, cell phones, relationships.

When their lips met, and their tongues touched, it was like they were kissing in a hundred different places, and her senses were flooded with new sensations and old memoires. He kissed her, and their...

Schuyler put a gentle hand on Abbadon’s feathered extensions, feeling the majestic power underneath their silky weight. She had been frightened once, to see him in this light, but now that she saw his terrifying...

Being an adult comes with a whole new set of issues.

You cannot let the darkness overcome the light.

Why should I? What do you promise me?Nothing. And everything. A life of danger and adventure. A chance to be yourself. Leave him. Come with me.

Do not cry for me, Azrael. Do not waste your tears. You made your decision. And this is mine. Sacrifice seems to be my destiny. A funny thing for a selfish man, isn’t it? They...

Maybe weakness is a strength of a kind.

I don’t write that much horror. People tell me my books are scary, but they’re not really; I don’t go there.

Had pretended to be Abbadon of the Dark, when always he had been working for the Light.

I’m up for it. Whatever it is. As long as it means I’ll always be with you.

You cannot be with someone just because you don’t want to hurt him. You have your own happiness to think about.

Because love was not the answer to every question. Because real love meant sacrifice. Sometimes love means letting go.

It’s always good to be underestimated.

I used to write my books at night when I was a freelancer with no children. I used to really work in huge spurts – I could turn around a revision in two weeks, I...

memories were tricky things…they weren’t stable. they changed with perception over time. …they shifted, and [she] understood how the passage of time affected them. the hard working striver might recall his childhood as one filled...

Even if they end up together, which I highly doubt, given the strength of that particular bond-…-but even if Schuyler still loves him, or thinks she does, it doesn’t matter. Because Jack is going to...

Boys. Drau or mortal, they were all the same.

It was maddening how your best friend could twist the knobs inside of you so much that it hurt.

We all want to live forever, but we don’t want to suck blood to do it, right? I think people like to have these deep moral questions that don’t come up in real life.

You look beautiful and tragic, just the way a heroine should on the eve of battle. Like Joan of Arc in her silver armor.

Bet you can’t even name one romantic movie you like,” she teased.She felt smug when a few minutes went by and Oliver was still unable to name one romantic movie he could profess to enjoy.The...

Just because I worked in fashion doesn’t mean I didn’t go to see ‘Underworld’ three times!

If she loved him the way she said she did, she wanted him whole. Maybe this was what love meant after all: sacrifice and selflessness. It did not mean hearts and flowers and a happy...
