More quotes by Nora Roberts
It's not an exaggeration to say that they saved my life. Ray Quinn, then Cam and Ethan and Phil. They turned their world around for me, and because of it, turned mine around with it.

I generally write a first draft that's pretty lean. Just get the story down.
Nora Roberts
Eve engaged her On Duty sign and stepped out of the car. Immediately her ears were assaulted with a blast of music. Christmas carols pumped, full blast, into the air. She decided that people ran inside, ready to buy anything, just to escape the noise.
Nora Roberts
I don't let myself believe in writer's block. I feel very strongly writing is habit as much as an art or a craft. And if you write crap, you're still writing.
Nora Roberts
I don't think I am a traditional romantic who thinks about candlelight dinners and wonders if my husband is going to bring me flowers, though I'm delighted if he does. I'm more practical-minded. I find it incredibly romantic that my husband does the dishes.
Nora Roberts
You saved me, Eve. He watched her blink in absolute shock. What you are, what I feel for you, what we are together saved me. He kept his eyes on hers as he kissed her.
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
The man was useless as tits on a bull, but he didn't deserve to die like that.
Nora Roberts
Make a life with me, one that comes from love, one that I can watch grow in you. Only a fool would believe that what comes from what we have together would be anything but beautiful.
Nora Roberts

Nora Roberts
Are you telling me you're cooking me dinner?- Regan Its the quickest way, without physical contact, to get a woman into bed. The kitchen through there?
Nora Roberts
I wonder if you can understand, I never really knew what it was to want, until you.
