02UndatedThe legend of ‘The One’ had been clear that the connection between a werewolf and his mate could never be denied. The fact that it could be destroyed had never come up in conversation.Paige Tyler / quote ↗
03UndatedHe gently caressed her bottom lips with his thumb. "It just occurred to me that I've never told you how beautiful you are until now, which has to make me possibly the slowest, or dumbest, man in the world.Paige Tyler / quote ↗
04Undated...She remembered why he'd caught her eye the first time she'd seen him, at Ivy and Landon's wedding. He was absolutely gorgeous. Tall, with broad shoulders and well-muscled arms, he had dark-blond hair, piercing blue eyes, and a square jaw covered with just the perfect amount of stubble. Then there was his mouth... There were books written about lips that kissable.Paige Tyler / quote ↗
05UndatedCan you make the salad while I fix the garlic bread?" He flashed her a grin. "Babe, I live to make salad.Paige Tyler / quote ↗
06UndatedLayla smiled through her tears, "If I'd known that all it would take to get us talking is a romantic getaway to a bombed-out part of Eastern Europe, I would have gotten Kendra to set it up a long time ago." "Romantic, huh?" He smiled. "I like romantic.Paige Tyler / quote ↗
07UndatedMaybe you could have picked something a little easier for our first official mission together?" Layla said in a teasing whisper...Paige Tyler / quote ↗
08UndatedWhat man didn't enjoy a beautiful woman curled up in his lap, even if she did treat him like a scratching post every time she woke up?Paige Tyler / quote ↗
09UndatedDid you see that bison on the wall there? He’s so big. And so cute.”Angelo grinned. “I thought you might say that. That’s why I got a smaller version.” He took the plush animal from inside his jacket, where he’d been hiding it, and placed it on the table. “This is Ted.”Minka’s eyes glistened with tears as she stared at it. Crap, what had he done wrong? He’d thought she’d love it.But then she grabbed the toy in one hand, threw her arms around Angelo, and squeezed him so hard his ribs creaked.“Thank you,” she said against his chest. “He’s perfect.Paige Tyler / quote ↗
10UndatedDo you have any idea how beautiful you are?" he asked hoarsely. Minka didn't answer. She simply reached up and tangled her fingers in his hair, urging him down for a searing kiss.Paige Tyler / quote ↗
11UndatedAngelo pulled his uniform overshirt over his head without undoing the buttons, which she thought was a pretty impressive feat. Then she saw what he was hiding under there and decided the view was much more impressive. Technically, he was still clothed, but the light tan T-shirt was really tight, and she didn’t have to use her imagination very much to figure out there were a lot of muscles under it. Just the sight of his big arms rippling as he moved was enough to make Minka catch her breath.When he reached behind his head to pull off his T-shirt, Minka found herself licking her lips in anticipation. She felt bad for watching him like this, but she couldn’t help herself. Then she looked up and saw Angelo regarding her with an amused expression on his handsome face.“I understand why you want to keep the door open, and I’m okay with that,” he said. “But you might want to look the other way for this part.”Minka felt heat rush to her face. She nodded and stepped out of the doorway, turning to sit down on the floor beside the bathroom like Angelo had done. Her fingers dug into the stuffed sloth’s fur. She was glad he couldn’t see her face because it was probably bright red. Why had she been staring like that?Paige Tyler / quote ↗
12UndatedShe didn't know why being near him made the beast inside her go away, and she didn't care. She was Minka in his arms and a monster out of them. That was all that mattered to her.Paige Tyler / quote ↗
13UndatedHe grinned. "Some guys like to work on cars or do woodworking. I search for beautiful women who might want to bite me.Paige Tyler / quote ↗
15UndatedGage sighed. "This team was a whole hell of a lot easier to run before any of us had ever heard about The One. You know that, right?" Maybe." Becker grinned. "But it wasn't nearly as interesting.Paige Tyler / quote ↗
17UndatedAs engine vibrated under him, he tried to tell himself it was all going to work out. It had to. Now that he’d found The One, there was no way in hell he was letting her get away. If that meant he had to move heaven and earth to find a good life for her and her pack mates here in the city, he’d do it. If being with Jayna meant he had to empty out his bank account and sell everything he owned, he was okay with that too.He had friends in other places he could turn to, Family too. His parents owned a huge house and a lot of land outside of Denver. If he showed up with Jayna, her pack, and no job, his family would welcome them with open arms. Okay, maybe his mom would be a little shocked when she found out his girlfriend came with an extended family, but she’d overlook it if there was a possibility of a grandchild in the near future.Becker was still daydreaming about kids with Jayna someday when headlights suddenly appeared in his rear- view mirror. He glanced over, swearing when he saw two vehicles speeding up behind him and closing fast.Paige Tyler / quote ↗
18UndatedHe opened his mouth to order her to drop the MP5 she had aimed at him, but nothing would come out. It was like she'd robbed him of the ability to speak. Shooting her wasn't an option, though. And the idea of arresting her didn't make him feel any better.Paige Tyler / quote ↗
19UndatedWhy aren't you turning me over to your cop friends right now?" she demanded. He shrugged. "To tell the truth, I have absolutely no idea. But let's talk anyway.Paige Tyler / quote ↗
20UndatedThe odds were incredibly stacked against a werewolf ever meeting his one-in-a-billion soul mate. There was no way Becker could have met his in the midst of an armed robbery. That kind of crap didn't happen in the real world.Paige Tyler / quote ↗
21UndatedAlmost forgot. Can you stop by and feed my fish every few days? And talk to them too. They get lonely when I am not home.”Cooper made a face “Who the hell talks to their fish?”“Me. You’ll feed them, right”“Yeah, I’ll feed them. But I am sure as hell not talking to them,” Cooper said…..Paige Tyler / quote ↗
22UndatedThe scent of arousal pouring off her was almost enough to make his fangs – and everything else – pop out. She leaned against the doorjamb, her gaze sweeping over him. “Do you have any idea how yummy you look in that suit?Paige Tyler / quote ↗
23UndatedZander, you're getting me all wet and gooey," she squealed.He laughed again as he plopped her on the bed. "And I've just started.Paige Tyler / quote ↗
24UndatedWhy do I need clothes?" she said as she found the black lacy pair she'd been looking for. "Two words -- burnt eggs.Paige Tyler / quote ↗
