I do not know her as you do, but I have shared each step of this journey with her, watched her fight for her life, and held her each night while she slept. I cannot...

Och, Sarah, how shall I call augh’ beautiful again unless it be the sight of you?

How do you like that, Corbray? You’re upstaging yourself.

You think to judge me, MacKinnon? I’ve littered the ground wi’ the corpses of men like you.”Iain raised his blade and smiled. “You’ve never met a man like me.

Look!” She pointed, a smile on her face. “Wild pigs!””They have razor-sharp tusks, so don’t try to hug one.

Making love with you is even more wonderful than making music.”He drew her closer. “Och, Sarah, you _are_ my music.

How do you feel?”Her pupils were dilated, her cheeks flushed. “Like I want you to kiss me again.”And _that_ was the invitation he’d been waiting for.

Cold rage had him leaning closer, the pistol now a mere inch from his throat. “I served with them for a decade in Special Forces. You can’t _begin_ to know what that means. Now they’re...

He was, she realised, quite graceful. The very idea surprised her. Male grace was a quality she’d never thought of beyond the ballroom; either a man could dance a quadrille with skill and without stepping...

If I told you your bare ass looks fantastic in the moonlight, would you hold that against me?

Before the war, a white man named Jonathan Edwards came to Stockbridge to teach my people about sin, but I doubt very much he could see sin in this. You defended yourself against a man...

[Connor, prepared to sacrifice himself to save Sarah]God, I pray, give me the strength to live the next hour well.

The whole world seemed to be wounded, broken, hurting.

He didn’t see the look his brothers shared or overhear the vow they made to one another–that if any one of the four of them were to make it back from Ticonderoga, it would be...

It’s going to be okay. Donny doesn’t know it yet, but he just picked a fight with the wrong bunch of guys.” — Julian Darcangelo

Killy arched an eyebrow in disbelief. “Don’t be thinkin’ you can deceive this old man. I’ve been makin’ a fool of myself over women since before you were born.

I couldn’t have gotten through any of this without you. Through all of it, you’ve been my support, my anchor. I don’t know how one man’s shoulders can possibly be so strong.”…He tilted her face...

You broke the Man Code, dude. ‘No man shall knowingly and with malice aforethought kick another man in the nuts.'””Okay, so I kicked him in the nuts. The little fucker was fleeing the scene of...

It wilna end wi’ me, Campbell. Slay me, and you’ll face my brothers and after them my Muhheconneok kin. You cannae possibly kill us all.

He wanted to tell her that if it were simply a matter of crossing the river Styx and trading places with Beau, he’d be gone in a heartbeat.

That is my gun. As you’ve discovered, it’s pumpaction like a shotgun , but it doesn’t fire bullets.

Don’t get me wrong. I’m happy to be your morning lollipop, but I need to eat, too.

If you think your scars bother me, you’re wrong. In my eyes, you’re a hero. Your scars are just proof of that.

This is what I love to see–different branches of law enforcement at each other’s throats. It gives the bad guys the head start they need, which in turn gives us all job security.

A hint of fire in his eyes, he glanced up at her. “If that displeases you, lass, I can leave you here for the next savior who comes along.

If you die, angel, it means I’m already dead.

SWAT is already on its way. I’ll be at your position in about ten minutes. SWAT should arrive in about fifteen to twenty.”[Javier:] “I’ll have her by then.

[Iain, addressing the Rangers at the end of the French & Indian war]”Never has the world see a war as this one, but you turned the tide of it, spillin’ your blood to keep frontier...

I wish Darcangelo were here. He’d fucking hate this.

I’ve bled for you. I’ve killed for you. I’ve held you in my arms and done my best to make love to you. I’d give my life to protect you. Now I sit beside you,...

I love you, Katherine James. I love you with everything I am. You’re the best thing that has ever happened to me. Remember that.”Gabe Rossiter

Marc to Gabe: “What do you know about the lemon stuff? You weren’t in desert combat. You were a park ranger. I’m not dissing that. It’s an important job. Someone has to keep the chipmunks...

The MacKinnon brothers are the highest nobility to those who live on the frontier—true warriors, men who know how to fight and survive, men who put the lives of others before their own. Your family’s...

Got enough leg room there, Rossiter?” Marc asked.”You bet. If not I’ll just make use of the overhead bin.

Though this marriage is a sham, what we share tonight will be real, my lady. I said I’d treat you wi’ the same respect I’d show my own true bride, and I meant it. I’d...

Her gaze met his, her blue eyes filled with confusion and terror – and love. If Julian hadn’t already been in love with her, that would have done it.

Javier opened her makeup kit, held it edge to edge with the dressing table, and swept everything–every vial, brush, tube, and bottle–into the kit with his forearm.Laura gaped at him. “That stuff is worth hundreds...

It’s not so much where I want you,Sophie, as it is how. Nothing tastes quite like a woman, and no woman tastes like you. – Marc Hunter

I’ve got no tolerance for a man who hurts women. Every man on this planet owes his life to a woman. I hope they catch the bastard and hang him by his nuts.

Though his countenance was solemn, there was a glint of amusement in his eyes. “Major MacKinnon, won’t you join us?””But, my lord, he is clad in outlawed rebel attire. The Dress Act expressly forbids–“”I am...

When I realized I was going to die, the only thing I could think about was you and what an idiot I’d been for not telling you how I felt about you. I think I’ve...

Natalie was going to stay at home, cooking meals, baking pies, and making sure their life together was comfortable. When Zach came home from a hard day’s work, she wanted to be there for him,...

Have you always been this skilled with women?” – Joseph to Iain

Awakened by the oppressive midday heat, Zach opened his eyes to see a small blue and tan lizard doing what looked like push-ups about a foot away from his face.

_I_ boil it.” Joseph entered last, closing the door behind them. “Last time, you burnt it.”Connor glared at Joseph. “We were attacked! What would you have me tell the Abenaki? ‘I cannae fight just now....

—Quería preguntártelo algún día, cuando fuera el momento adecuado, pero hemos comenzado a hablar…[…]—La miró a los ojos mientras le acariciaba la mejilla con los nudillos—. Estoy ante ti sin nada, bella, solo te entrego...

Zach kissed her forehead. “I’m not going to let anything like that happen to you again. You’re going to live out your days as the cosseted and cherished wife of a chief deputy U.S. Marshal.

Annie is my wife, and she will remain wi’ me as my wife, subject only to my rule. I will suffer no man to dishonor her or lay hand upon her so long as I...

Some part of him had hoped that a woman might one day see beyond his scars to the man he was inside. But Megan was doing more than just ignoring his ugliness. She was _accepting_...

[Connor to Major Wentworth, grandson of King George]”My fathers were lairds in the Highlands when yours were still farmin’ kale back in Germany!
