Quotes by Susan Illene  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“If there was a light at the end of the tunnel, the flickering bulb above my head wasn’t it. The faces of my tormentors were no angels—they were hell’s minions and I’d stepped into their purgatory.”
Susan Illene, Darkness Haunts

“Nothing has changed, or will ever change. Melena, you belong to me. I would walk through the fires of hell for you. I would face anyone or do anything if it could keep you alive even one extra day. There is no price too high that I wouldn’t pay.”
Susan Illene, Chained by Darkness

“when couples are tested by the greatest obstacles, don’t give up, and make it past them, they become stronger for it. Strength isn’t something that you’re born with, it’s something you build through a series of difficult experiences in your life that break you down and build you back up a little sturdier each time (if you let them). What’s the saying…forged by fire?”
Susan Illene, Chained by Darkness
