A smart woman would have shut up. Did I? Hell no. Intelligence is overrated anyway.

I'm searching for a shred of humanity in that shriveled tangle of arteries you call a heart.

I don't hate it. It does no good to hate something you can't change.

I love you, Kaylee. More than I've ever loved anyone. More than I will ever love anyone. If I could freeze this moment in time and never have to let you go, I would do it without a second thought.

"He's lying, Kay," Nash said, fists clenched at his sides. "Hellions can't lie, but we all know reapers can." "Careful, pot," Tod said. "Someone might notice your resemblance to the kettle."

Unfortunately, what my head wanted and what my heart wanted were two completely different things.

It would be so much easier if there were a secret password, or handshake. Netherworld, open sesame! Yeah, that didn't work, either.
