More quotes by Nora Roberts
Certainly the plagiarism, and dealing with the fallout of it, was the most difficult thing I've ever faced since I started writing.
Nora Roberts
Happily ever after? If justice doesn't triumph and love doesn't make the circle in entertainment fiction, what's the point? Real life sucks too often.

It's about us. It's about trust.

Roarke: You'd enjoy flying more if you'd learn the controls. Eve: I'd rather pretend I'm on the ground. Roarke: And how many vehicles have you wrecked, had blown up, or destroyed in the last, oh, two years? Eve: Think about that, then imagine it happening when I'm at the wheel at thirty thousand feet. Roarke: Good point. I'll do the flying.

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
I think writer is a word without gender, and a good writer observes, absorbs, hopefully empathizes then translates that into character and story. You don’t have to do or be or have experienced, traveled to, but you have to imagine all of that, very well–and believe it completely during the bubble of the work.
