Sooner or later everyone was driven to love someone they could never have.

Only someone who had experienced such bitter despair would be able to recognize it in another.

Love is always a leap into the unknown. You can try to control as many variables, and understand a situation as you can, but youre still jumping off a cliff and hoping that someone catches you.

I will admit, I once launched myself at Julie Garwood for a hug, hoping some of her magic would rub off on me... and I have fangirl crushes on Susan Elizabeth Phillips, Linda Howard, and Kresley Cole, among many others.

Dating is like trying to make a meal out of leftovers. Some leftovers actually get better when they've had a little time to mature. But others should be thrown out right away, No matter how you try to warm them up, they're never as good as when they were new.

Only you could love such a vile, selfish peacock, Evie.

... no matter where you go or what you do, I'll love every day for the rest of my life.
