A kiss isn't terminal. It is the way you do it.
Nora Roberts
God is dead and I am his replacement.
Nora Roberts
Courage comes in different forms. There's strength--that's the muscle. But love's the heart. When you put them together, you can do anything.
Nora Roberts
And you're not going to tell me she didn't make a move on you. At least test the waters. The waters, he said, were not receptive. If they had been, I'd have drowned her in them already.
Nora Roberts
But when two people feel something, they ought to respect that enough to figure it out
Nora Roberts
I know you love me, but I don't know why. I look at you and I just can't get why it's me. Every time I get my balance, I lose it again. Because it shouldn't be me, and I think it'd kill me if you ever figured that out.
Nora Roberts

Nora Roberts
Why couldn't she have this, just enjoy this, without creating obstacles, digging up problems, worrying about mistakes, about tomorrow's? Why let the maybe's, the what if's, the probabilities spoil something so lovely?
Nora Roberts
The simple and most complex answer is love.
Nora Roberts
The man's got more money than God, and he sends you a bag of coffee?
Nora Roberts
Oh, God. God, isn't that perfect? He's Dad. He's Dad with a layer of nerd. Solid, steady, chipping away so patiently, you don't even know you've had your shields hacked down until you're defenseless. It's the type. You're not in love with a type, you're in love with a man, Penny corrected. Or you're not.
Nora Roberts
No second chance? A wry smile twisted Carrick's lips. There might have been, had I not waited so long to take it.
Nora Roberts
Pretending the past doesn't exist is as bad as living in it.
Nora Roberts
