...those who love suffer when who they love suffers.
Nora Roberts
I don't fiddle or edit or change while I'm going through that first draft.
Nora Roberts
It does not make you less of a woman to need a man. To need one to exist, yes, this is nonsense. To need one to give one scope and importance, this is dishonest. But to need a man, one man, to bring joy and passion? This is life

Nora Roberts

Nora Roberts
You are wise as well as short. I can also break bricks with my bare hands. That's a handy skill if you ever find yourself walled up in the basement of an abandoned house by a psychopath.
Nora Roberts
You don't need to diet, She-Body. You are a just-right female. McNab? Eve said. Yes, sir. Shut up. It's all right, Dallas. We're a couple. A couple of what? No, don't tell me. Don't talk to me. Don't talk to each other. Let there be silence across the land.
Nora Roberts
The man that put that hurt look in your eyes, could be worth everything, or nothing at all.
Nora Roberts
I wonder if you can understand, I never really knew what it was to want, until you.
Nora Roberts
He was one of the many toads you have to go through to find the prince.
Nora Roberts
Nature will kill you without a minute's thought, and in nastier ways than a crazy guy with agun. It doesn't make her any less beautiful.
Nora Roberts
I have no idea why it apparently takes three grown men to cook some hamburgers. One to cook, one to kibbitz, and one to insult the other two.
Nora Roberts
A kiss isn't terminal. It is the way you do it.
Nora Roberts
Roarke's brow cocked as he noted Casto take in the black satin that slithered over Eve's body. In the manner of men or unfriendly male dogs, Roarke showed his teeth.
Nora Roberts
I hope that's true, because I figured out why I'd never finished it, what I was waiting for. I was waiting for you, Clare. For them. For us. I want to finish it up for you, for them, for us.
Nora Roberts
