    The City Beneath | Favorite Quotes & Witty Banter

    The banter between Cassidy and Dominic could fill an entire book… oh, wait. It did. Four of them, actually 😂 “You did something different,” I insisted. “Tell yourself whatever lies allow you to face yourself in the mirror, but the truth is that I did nothing more than heal you. Whatever you felt, and whatever…

  • Favorite Quotes | Ghostly Intentions, Short Story in An Autumn Embrace

    There’s nothing I love writing more than the magic of a first kiss! “Nannette slid into his kiss the way she might the ocean after a storm, knowing she was in over her head and thrilled by it even as she was pulled under. His mouth pressed and ebbed, coaxing hers like the swaying tide.…

  • The City Beneath | Witty Banter

    Usually I focus on Dominic and Cassidy’s witty banter in The City Beneath, but Walker has his moments too: “This whole damsel in distress gig is a bad habit, DiRocco.” “Bad habits die hard,” I whispered. “I thought that was old habits.” “All my old habits are bad habits.”

  • Sweet Last Drop | Favorite Quotes

    One of my favorite quotes from Sweet Last Drop, Night Blood blood 2: “You’re being dramatic,” Dominic growled. “Drinking from you won’t kill you. You don’t need the entire cow to make a hamburger, remember? And neither do I, concerning you.” “Number one, I don’t like being compared to a cow. It’s insulting. And number…
