Quotes by B.J. Daniels

Hank Knight asked questions about Jesse Rose and an item that was taken from her crib the night she was kidnapped. His questions led our lawyer to believe Hank had knowledge about the crime and possibly where Jesse Rose is now. I think he got too close to the truth. Too close to the kidnappers accomplice. And if Im right then you can help me prove it.

He noticed her eyes were a rich, warm brown, the same color as his favorite horse.Yes?He realized hed been staring. At least he had the sense not to voice his thoughts. He doubted she would appreciate her eye color being compared to that of his horses hide even if it was his favorite.

Her gaze locked with his and she felt her heart quicken. Slowly, he bent his head until his lips were only a breath away from her own. She couldnt breathe. Didnt dare. She thought she would die if he didnt kiss her.

His lips brushed over hers. She let out a sigh of relief and joy and pleasure. He pulled her tighter against him, taking her mouth with his own. She melted into him and the kiss, heart pounding, desire sparking along her nerve endings like a string of lit dynamite.

The past is just that.

Please don’t take offense, but I want no part of this family or what comes with it.

Where are you taking me?” Abby asked from the passenger seat of the pickup.

Every woman wants a cowboy.

A tree.” She spotted one. It was hidden behind a much larger tree, its limbs misshapen in its attempt to fight for even a little sunlight in the shadow. “Dana has this tradition of giving a sad-looking tree the honor of being a Christmas tree.” She walked over to the small, nearly hidden tree. “I like this one. “It’s…” He laughed. “Ugly?” “No, it’s beautiful because it’s had a hard life. It’s struggled to survive against all odds and would keep doing that without much hope. But it has a chance to be something special.

He locked gazes with her. “I have to wonder why you aren’t being straight with me. I hate getting myself killed without knowing why.

He’d been trying to save this woman in his dreams for years. Now here she was, all grown up, and he still felt helpless.

He started for his office, but something was bothering him. Turning back to her, he said, “I have to know. DJ walks in and you instantly like her. You’ve never liked any of the women I’ve dated, and you’ve never done more than share a few words with them on the phone. What is different about this one?” he demanded, trying to keep his voice down. Marge smiled. “You’ll remember this one’s name.

I want to die.” May shook her head. “Let me get a knife.” “I’ve made a horrible mess of things.” “Haven’t we all? If you don’t want your supper burned, die quietly while I get back to the kitchen.

DJ saw the change in his expression the moment before he dropped the ax, reached out with his gloved hand and, cupping her neck, drew her to him. “I believe you owe me a kiss.

She shot him a look she thought he might still remember, the same one a rattler gives right before it strikes.

Hud? Back here? Oh, man, what a birthday present, Hilde said, giving her another hug. Im so sorry, sweetie. I can imagine what seeing him again did to you. I still want to kill him, Dana whispered. Not on your birthday. Hilde frowned.

Jackson couldnt bear to see Allie like this. He pulled her to him and, dropping his mouth to hers, kissed her. She leaned into him, letting him draw her even closer as the kiss deepened. Fireworks lit the night, booming in a blaze of glittering light before going dark again. Desire ignited his blood. He wanted Allie like hed never wanted anyone or anything before.

I want you, too, Hayes Cardwell, and that isnt the beer talking.They were so close she could see the shine of his dark eyes in the starlight. Without another word, he swept her up in his arms and carried her into the cabin.

I know what youre up to.I doubt that. Hayes leaned toward her, his hand looping around the back of McKenzies neck as he gently drew her to him. Because if you could see what I was up to, then youd know I was about to kiss you.

You dont have to treat me as if Im made out of glass and might break, she said. Im a lot stronger than I look.Is that right? He looped an arm around her waist and pulled her to him right there in the street between their vehicles. Her full lips parted in surprise. Her sweet, warm breath commingled with his own. She let out a soft moan as he tasted her. Drawing her even closer, he deepened the kiss, demanding more.
