King Tiernan scowled at the mess his father had gotten him into…all because the heartless man had to die. Hawk fae kings were to immediately marry as soon as they were seated on the throne...

There’s no better way for a woman to punish a man than to make him sleep away from her.

I was a spectator who had gotten free admission to a freak show.

We’re not together anymore. Don’t forget it.There is a pause before he responds. Hard to forget that. The gaping hole in my chest that was left when u ripped my heart out kind of reminds...

She gave herself a hard twist and fell into a sitting position, staring at me with those maggot-filled doll’s eyes.

Therapy can’t erase scars, it only makes it easier to live with them. — Duke

I’m not sure I’ll ever know the meaning of life or what comes for us after death, but I know it’s more than the hysteria people make it out to be. It’s about freeing your...

I turned to her, my whole body hard with tiredness and regret.

You shouldn’t have done that, Dave.

I’m not a bad person.

But it’s worth it.

I thought if I loved you enough I could change you. I was so stupid.

I love you to insanity. I’m not even sure if it’s a good thing.” — Duke

The world is only as small as your mind makes it.

Remember. Observe, assess and act. No hesitation. No remorse.

So go love someone that wants to love you back. Whoever that lad is will be one lucky person.

‘There’s no time for right or wrong,’ I said.

During our time together in this place Holly didn’t outright avoid me or treat me rudely. But she wasn’t—how do women like to put it? She wasn’t emotionally available to me.

I am enlightened.

I felt a lunatic’s laugh welling up inside me.

It’s a matter of when I’ll stop fighting. — Duke

Friendship is the best kind of ship.

Dude, don’t die out here.

When the time comes, don’t be afraid to open the door, just make sure you choose the right one.

She smiled at him like a freshman invited to the senior prom. It made my blood boil.

It’s not about winning, it’s about doing what’s right. And yes, we will do what’s right.

You wouldn’t believe how boring of a job it is, tasting food to make sure it isn’t poisoned.

I like to think she hates my guts a little less every hour.

No.” I pulled away just enough to lock my eyes with his. His crooked smile sent shivers down my spine. His eyes were a deep blue darkening more as the minutes passing between us were...

We’re screwed.

I don’t know how these things died without benefit of a bullet to the brain pan. They seemed to exist in an eternal twilight of longing.

Love when you can, and fight when you must, but stand together and never give up, not to the enemy, and not on each other.

She played me with a bad hand, and I fell for it every time.

‘Can’t you see what they are?’ I said. ‘They’re all dead.’

We’re a symphony–our limbs and lips and skin making up the instruments, working together to create a beautiful piece of music.

I wanted to see the bullet coming, wanted to know the exact moment of my death.

Believe me, I knew you enjoyed it without voicing it that way. It was like your body screamed for me to take you.”All too true, but I didn’t like it to be told aloud. I...

Leo leaned forward and met her soft lips. Their first underwater kiss created bubbles that floated lazily to the surface. Audrey ran her fingers through his coarse hair, and they lingered until his lungs were...

I heard them tearing at it. It was the sound of mortality.

Everything changes, and there’s no denying that. But change isn’t always bad, as long as you hold onto who you truly are, and hold onto each other.

The people inside the gym didn’t stand a dead drunk’s chance.

A riverless silence made the air heavy.

I’m going to be honest with you. I don’t want to sit here all night making small talk when all I want to do is kiss you.

People talk about survival. What they mean is killing the other guy.

Don’t see me as a girl. See me as a buddy of yours or something.”He cast his eyes downward and didn’t look back up to my face. I looked down and groaned. Such a guy....

There was no ‘I’ in team, but there was meat in team. And we were all dead meat.

I knew then I was going to die in the street without ever seeing Holly again. All because I tried to help an old woman, proving for all eternity that no good deed goes unpunished.

I can’t just take it.’‘You can. I’m giving it to you.’ She affirms, glimpsing quickly up at me and then down to the floor, moving her foot once and then back again. Still her hand...

The sound of him drinking was indescribable—like dirty runoff down a storm drain.

Sal turned, an eye stalk hanging from his teeth.
