Loved. I hadn't even realized how desperetly I'd wanted love.How much we both needed to know that in a world of dark corners and sharp needles, there really is a place where kisses taste like apple pie and where stars spill like suger across the sky. A place where unknown roads no longer scare you because you have another hand to hold. A place where butterflies always flutter whenever you see each other, and a single touch tells you that you are not alone. A place where every kiss still feels like the first. In that place of us, Liv and Dean, love has its own poetry and language. Allure, quartrefoil, fleur-de-lis...Professor. Beauty.

I’d believed my destiny was in protecting the king. But maybe God had ordained the entwining of my life with Lis’s instead. How else could I explain this bond that had so rapidly formed between us along with my need to keep her safe?

out exactly what happened.” Nic tried to hide her pride at the next bit of news. “I’ve been appointed the case agent.” She had lobbied hard for it, pointing out to John Drood, the special agent in charge, that Jim Fate had reached out to her and Allison just before he was killed.

Felicity glanced at him, then looked out toward the lane again. 'Why did you hit Mr. Fields?'
That was a question he preferred not to answer until he'd thought his motivations over more thoroughly - yet he was familiar enough with Lis to know she'd insist on an answer. 'He...insinuated some things I didn't appreciate.'
'Some things that were true, perhaps?' ...
'Yes.'
'Then why-'
'If he knew me, or cared in the least, he wouldn't have said them. Quin didn't.

They watched the turning colors of the sky until they faded to gray.
'Are the sunsets in Africa as beautiful?' Felicity asked.
He stirred. 'Hm? Oh. They're different. The heat rises from the ground in waves.' He motioned with his hand. 'The lower the sun gets, the more the horizon seems to ripple and move, like it's alive. It's mesmerizing.'
She freed her fingers and started back toward the house. 'I'm sorry all Cheshire sunsets have to offer are pretty colors.'
Rafe watched her retreating backside, tired of the tension between them, and tired of the way he couldn't mention anything farther away than Pelford without upsetting her - even when she lured him into the conversation, as though to test his interest. 'Lis, stop that.'
She turned and looked at him. 'Then stop preferring everywhere else in the world above Forton Hall.'
He narrowed his eyes. 'I will, if you'll stop preferring Forton Hall above all the rest of damned creation.

Balancing a tall stack of dirty dishes bound for the free sink, Adriana crossed the marble floor, dodging, for no reason in particular, the silver fleur- de- lis patterns marking the occasional tile. She passed in between the island with its fat, sturdy legs and the open shelving lining the subway- tile walls on her left. The higher shelves exhibited Margot’s favorite and most worn cookbooks, the ones that had made the cut to travel from Vermont to Red Mountain. The other shelves displayed large glass containers of a wide variety of flours, rice, and beans.

a vertebral body slips out of alignment, perfect symmetry is lost and the spinal canal becomes narrowed at that area (Fig. 2-17). This phenomenon is known as spondylolisthesis (spon-dee-low-lis-THEE-sis), spondylo meaning spine, and listhesis meaning slippage.

All an American knows is forward movement. You do not understand the concept of moving laterally.” Dr. Li’s level gaze held Bertram. “Dr. Bertram, nothing is free, and you should know better. In America and other large cities, even the most basic human elements--air and water--are being sold back to the inhabitants. Be sensible. What do you think would happen if I advertised what I had?” “I don’t know,” Bertram

In March, Rubio opened a rally by attacking Trump: “I’ll admit, he’s taller than me. He’s like 6′2″, which is why I don’t understand why his hands are the size of someone who’s 5′2″. Have you seen his hands? . . . And you know what they say about a man with small hands.” Rubio might as well have just come out and accused Trump of having a small dick.

Just like it did for Lis, it takes the guard a few seconds to locate Alan. When he does, he frowns. “Shit. Well, that’s new.” “What?” the other guard says, joining them. “He’s spun himself into a pupa,” the first guard grunts. “Like a fucking larva.” “That’s my husband you’re talking about!” Lis hears herself snap. The guards ignore her. Prince whimpers from the chair. “Damn,” the other guard says. “We’d better call Lundbeck.” “Think she’s back?” “I don’t know.” The guard takes out his phone and makes a call.
