    “What are you thinking?" he asks.

    I know Gage hates it when I cry - he is completely undone by the sight of tears - so I blink hard against the sting. "I'm thinking how thankful I am for everything," I say, "even the bad stuff. Every sleepless night, every second of being lonely, every time the car broke down, every wad of gum on my shoe, every late bill and losing lottery ticket and bruise and broken dish and piece of burnt toast."

    His voice is soft. "Why, darlin'?"

    "Because it all led me here to you.”

    “... He didn't know how to say good-bye. His throat ached from the strain of holding back his emotions. “I don't want to leave you,” he said humbly, reaching for her cold, stiff hands.

    Emma lowered her head, her tears falling freely. “I'll never see you again, will I?”

    He shook his head. “Not in this lifetime,” he said hoarsely.

    She pulled her hands away and wrapped her arms around his neck. He felt her wet lashes brush his cheek. “Then I'll wait a hundred years,” she whispered. “Or a thousand, if I must. Remember that, Nikki. I'll be waiting for you to come to me.”

    “Sometimes when we're not paying attention, relationships hap­pen.
    There is no rule that requires two people in love to be ex­actly alike.
    In fact, there is some scientific evidence to suggest that on a genetic level, the people who are the most opposite are the most likely to have a healthy and long-lasting pairing.
    But really, who can explain the mysteries of attraction?
    Blame it on Cupid.
    The moon.
    The shape of a smile.
    Both of you can thrive on your differences, as long as you respect them.
    You say tomato, he says tomahto .
    Let it happen,
    Dive in head first.
    We usually learn the most about ourselves from people who are different from us.
    —Miss Independent (ella varner)”

    “One glance and I knew exactly who and what he was. The classic alpha male, the kind who had spurred evolution forward about five million years ago by nailing every female in sight. They charmed, seduced, and behaved like bastards, and yet women were biologically incapable of resisting their magic DNA.”

    “I was just thinking if the sex with you is one-tenth as fun as arguing with you. I'll be one happy bastard."

    “Dear Miss Independent,

    I've decided that of all the women I've ever known, you are the only one I will ever love more than hunting, fishing, football, and power tools.

    You may not know this, but the other time I asked you to marry me, the night I put the crib together, I meant it. Even though I knew you weren't ready.
    God, I hope you're ready now.

    Marry me, Ella. Because no matter where you go or what you do, I'll love you every day for the rest of my life.

    —Jack”

    “I've got about ten things to say to you right now. But at least nine of them would make me sound like a psycho.”

    In spite of the seriousness of the situation, I nearly smiled. “What’s the tenth thing?” I asked his shirtfront.

    He paused, considering it. “Never mind,” he grumbled. “That one would make me sound like a psycho, too.”

    “No more Dane,” he eventually said with unnerving finality.

    “It means if the first thing happens, the second thing is likely to follow.”

    “Well, you missed out on some important protocol, Ella. You can't stand between a Texan and his power tools. We like them. Big ones that drain the national grid. We also like truck-stop breakfasts, large moving objects, Monday night football, and the missionary position. We don't drink light beer, drive Smart cars, or admit to knowing the names of more than about five or six colors. And we don't wax our chests, ever.”
    Lisa Kleypas, Smooth Talking Stranger
