If you love someone, when it's the most real, the most important thing in your life, it's not enough to coast. You need to dig in those footers, start building on that base. You want something to last, you put your back into it.

More quotes by Nora Roberts
I decided to write category romance as I'd recently discovered them, and enjoyed them.
Nora Roberts
Love didn't run on logic. It didn't follow neat lines or a list of priorities.
Nora Roberts
If you write in category, you write knowing there's a framework, there are reader expectations.
Nora Roberts
Evil cannot and will not be vanquished by evil. Dark will only swallow dark and deepen. The good and the light are the keenest weapons.
Nora Roberts
It doesn't matter, that's the point. It doesn't matter that things don't always work exactly the way you thought they should. Moments matter. People matter, how they feel, how they connect. Who they are alone and together. All that matters, no matter how quickly the moment passes. Maybe because it passes.
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
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
You are who you are. I know you. You believe that? Yea but-- You're Eve Dallas. You're the love of my life. My heart and Soul. You're a cop, mind and bone. You're a woman of strength and resilience. Stubborn, hardheaded, occassionally mean as a badger, and more generous that you'll admit.
Nora Roberts
It was best not to think, not to analyze. It was best to accept and act.
Nora Roberts
Every writer needs an editor. I don't care how good you are or think you are.
Nora Roberts
My own sense of family, where I came from and what I made for myself is an important part of my life.
Nora Roberts
There's an oatmeal cookie in there. I see no reason for the existence of oatmeal, particularly in cookies.
Nora Roberts
Do you know what I feel about you, Devin? About us?...Dazzled, you dazzle me. You make me feel things, and want things I never knew I could have. -Cassie
Nora Roberts
Today should always be outlawed in favor of tomorrow
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
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.
Nora Roberts
What's your status? she asked him. Healthy, wealthy, and wise. What's yours? Ha. Mean, crafty, and rude.
Nora Roberts
Happy Fuller: Somehow you always love in a special way the one who gives you the most grief.
Nora Roberts
It was a joint, which put it one slippery step up from a dive.
