“Sex that's planned like a business transaction is a turnoff for me..... Listen to yourself. Why even call it a fuck? Why not be clear and call it a seminal emission in a pre-approved orifice?" (Eva to Gideon)”

“I’ve always seen you, angel. From the moment you found me, I’ve seen nothing but you.”

“I had a very realistic expectation of the level of success that it was possible to attain writing romance novels.”

“Oh, Eva." He rubbed his cheek against my damp face. "I must've wished for you so hard and so often you had no choice but to come true.”

“Writing the 'Crossfire' series is deeply personal for me, and I love the whole process of it.”

“I spend a lot of time on social media, I'm on Facebook every day; I'm on Twitter every day.”

“When a story captures me, it comes quickly and easily.”

“I believe that if you work hard at a relationship, devoting time and energy to it, being willing to grow and experiment, and never take it for granted, that you can continue to feel the initial attraction and excitement indefinitely.”

“There are millions of people who think that romance isn't real writing. But the only person who can make you real, make your books real, is you.”

“I'm a multimillionaire.”

“You definitely have the voice for phone sex, but I've got to go. I have a date with my vibrator.""Oh, Eva." Cross spoke my name in a decadent purr. "You're determined to drive me to my knees, aren't you? What will it take to talk you into a threesome with B.O.B.”

“My mom handed me my first romance novel.”

“You know how it is - some hot guys don't make your hormones go crazy, while some unattractive guys have massive sex appeal. This guy had it all.”

“It's probably best for me to work off some energy before I get you naked. I'm sure you'd like to be able to walk tomorrow.”

“For the most part, romance is written in third person, and it's written in multiple points of view, so you're in the hero's head, and you're in the heroine's head. I've always said that I'm more of a narrator than a creator.”

“Nalini Singh, J.D. Robb, Patricia Briggs, Shelby Reed - these are my pre-order, must-have authors.”

“As for discipline and rules, I confess, I've never been good with either.”

“You really couldn't do a PG version of 'Crossfire!' It just wouldn't work.”

“I have things I watch in my downtime - I love 'Scandal.' I don't write political romance, so there's not a direct relation there. But it's something I do just to turn off the brain for a little bit, and just to relax and recharge.”

“I go to a lot of conferences and conventions to meet with readers directly.”
