Romance Quote by Lisa Kleypas — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“You wouldn't have taken Rose to such a place, would you?”

“I’ll marry you,” Tom told her. “Any time. Any terms.”

“Cam held her closer. "Marry me, Amelia. You're what I want. You're my fate." One hand slid to the back of her head, gripping the braids and ribbons to keep her mouth upturned. "Say yes." He nibbled at her lips, licked at them, opened them. He kissed her until she writhed in his arms, her pulse racing. "Say it, Amelia, and save me from ever having to spend a night with another woman. I'll sleep indoors. I'll get a haircut. God help me, I think I'd even carry a pocket watch if it pleased you.”

“She shook her head as she confessed, "I want it so much, I'm afraid to hope.”

“You think I'd cheat on you?" I demanded with all the innocent outrage I could muster.”

“I don’t want to be a widow, I don’t want Michael Bayning, and I don’t want you to joke about such things, you tactless clodpole!”

“Is this nuclear physics or are you ordering a cake?”

“Bonnie, believe in me. I’ll save you.”

“Ano snorted in a very unladylike and elkish way.”

“Was this some new level of depravity? Had he developed a spinster fetish?”

“Is there anything sweeter than the touch of another as she pulls a dead bug from your fur?”

“Roses! I swear you men have all your romance from the same worn book. Flowers are a good thing, a sweet thing to give a lady. But it is always roses, always red, and always perfect hothouse blooms when they can come by them.”
