-o-
1. Anna & The French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins

“I’m saying I’m in love with you! I’ve been in love with you this whole bleeding year!” 

2. The Sea of Tranquility by Katja Millay

“I don’t know how to say it – after all this time, I’m not even sure that I can – but I have to break her last rule, because if she knows nothing else, I need her to know this one thing.
‘I love you, Sunshine,’ I tell her, before I lose my nerve. ‘And I don’t give a shit whether you want me to or not.”


3. Art & Soul by Brittainy C. Cherry

“Maybe it wasn’t about fixing the broken hearts. Maybe it was about loving the broken pieces the way they were.”


4. Fire Falling by Elise Kova

“What is this woman to you?”
“Vhalla, I need her in so many ways, Mother help me,” Aldrik groaned. “I need her as my redemption, I need her kindness, I need her forgiveness, I need her smiles, I need her humanity, I need her ignorance, I need her innocence, and, yes … Mother Sun, yes, I need her as a man.

5. Stolen Songbird by Danielle L. Jensen

“Behind my closed lids, my eyes stung, and I bit my lip. Tristan stroked my hair and I opened my eyes, staring into his soul, which was filled with all the sympathy, sorrow, and longing that I felt in my heart. For what I had lost. For what he had never had. And for what he never would have, if I did what he’d asked and abandoned my quest to break the curse.

“I love you, Cécile,” he said, and my breath caught. It was one thing to feel it, and quite another to hear the words from his lips.”

6. Iron Queen by Julie Kagawa

“My name is Ashallyn’darkmyr Tallyn, third son of the Unseelie Court…Let it be known–from this day forth, I vow to protect Meghan Chase, daughter of the Summer King, with my sword, my honor, and my life. Her desires are mine. Her wishes are mine. Should even the world stand against her, my blade will be at her side. And should it fail to protect her, let my own existence be forfeit. This I swear, on my honor, my True Name, and my life. From this day on…” His voice went even softer, but I still heard it as though he whispered it into my ear. “I am yours.”


7. Attachments by Rainbow Rowell

“I’d know you in the dark,” he said. “From a thousand miles away. There’s nothing you could become that I haven’t already fallen in love with.”


8. Never Too Far by Abbi Glines

“Listen to me, Blaire. If you try to go anywhere I will chase you down. I will become your shadow. I won’t let you out of my sight because I can’t live without you. I made so many damn mistakes with you I don’t even want to try and count them but I am going to start making things right from here on out.” 


9. Divergent by Veronica Roth

“He turns toward me. I want to touch him, but I’m afraid of his bareness; afraid that he will make me bare too.
‘Is this scaring you, Tris?’
‘No,’ I croak. I clear my throat. ‘Not really. I’m only…afraid of what I want.’‘What do you want?’ Then his face tightens. ‘Me?’
Slowly I nod.”

10. Suddenly Royal by Nichole Chase

“You love me?” My brain was mush and I wasn’t sure if it was from his words or the pain pill.
Yes, I love you.” His eyes bored into mine.
“I love you.” I traced his cheek with my fingers. “Can you tell me again when I’m not on pain medicine?” 
“I’ll tell you every day.” 
“Maybe twice a day?” I felt my eyelids growing heavy.
“A hundred times a day.”  

That was rather too cheesy! LOL
Enjoy your Valentine’s Day with your book boyfriends/girlfriends
