“You sleep okay, sweetie?” “Miss my teddy,” Billie replied. Personally, I thought Detective Mitch Lawson was far superior to a tiny pink teddy bear but I wasn’t six years old.”
“I beg your pardon?” Catherine interrupted. “Are you implying that women have poor judgment?”
“In these matters, yes.” Leo gestured to Christopher. “Just look at the fellow, standing there like a bloody Greek god. Do you think she chose him because of his intellect?”
“I graduated from Cambridge,” Christopher said acidly. “Should I have brought my diploma?”

Think before you eat, people: Food should be the life of you, not the death of you."
Agnes and the Hitman by Jennifer Crusie and Bob Mayer
“When she absently worried her bottom lip with one of her adorable little fangs, he sighed. The Enemy of Old f*ck*n* sighed. Dear gods, it’d finally happened to him. Happiness. Then his own fangs sharpened.I will kill anyone who tries to take this feeling away from me.” ― Kresley Cole, Lothaire
