Survival strategy. If you’re not careful, this place will eat you alive, and Kaylee’s like bait for the beasts. — Rachel Vincent Copy Share Image
10:38 AM - Third period. Kaylee has no class this period. I have no one to kill. Coincidence, or fate? — Rachel Vincent Copy Share Image
What if I was the sexual equivalent of popcorn? Suitable for light snacking only? — Rachel Vincent Copy Share Image
You two are cracked," Tod snapped. My smile widened. "Says the undead man in love with the soulless pop star. — Rachel Vincent Copy Share Image
Kaylee do you know why you are here?" "Yeah. Because the doors are locked. — Rachel Vincent Copy Share Image
I don't want to wear your dad's clothes. He hates me." "You'd rather wear mine?" Nash scowled. — Rachel Vincent Copy Share Image
Have you and Nash both lost your minds? This is really a very simple concept--one that you taught me! Hellion equals evil.… — Rachel Vincent Copy Share Image
Great. "So not only am I not-human, but Death is my arch foe?" Who, me? Panic? "Anything else you want to tell… — Rachel Vincent Copy Share Image
So ... will you stay with me until it's over? Please?" "Kaylee, I would do anything for the girl who granted my… — Rachel Vincent Copy Share Image
Harmony glanced to her left, and my gaze followed hers to the living room, where my aunt had died, my cousin had… — Rachel Vincent Copy Share Image
Sneak out." He shrugged, as if that should have been a no-brainer. But that was easy for him to say. He was… — Rachel Vincent Copy Share Image
Levi will kill me the minute he sees me, and I don't trust Madeline. There's something in her eyes..." "I believe that's… — Rachel Vincent Copy Share Image
If you want to call yourself my friend, you should know that position comes with boundaries." Sabine frowned. "I'm no good with… — Rachel Vincent Copy Share Image
I love you, Kaylee. More than I've ever loved anyone. More than I will ever love anyone. If I could freeze this… — Rachel Vincent Copy Share Image
Why do I always have to be the one who says 'stop'?" I demanded, my voice little more than a moan. "You… — Rachel Vincent Copy Share Image
So what does Tod look like? Whitewashed skeleton skulking around in a black cape and hood? Carrying a scythe? 'Cause I'm thinking… — Rachel Vincent Copy Share Image
Her dark-eyed glare narrowed on me. "You could have least given him a shirt, Kaylee." "Like you're an expert on when it's… — Rachel Vincent Copy Share Image
I went up on my toes to kiss him, and he groaned. "Do you really think this is appropriate on school grounds?"… — Rachel Vincent Copy Share Image
Because you don't belong with him! I tried to tell you that, but you wouldn't listen, and I thought if you understood… — Rachel Vincent Copy Share Image
His name's Nash." Aunt Val took a butter knife from the silverware drawer. "What year is he?" I groaned inwardly. "Senior." ...here… — Rachel Vincent Copy Share Image
“I could have kissed you months ago, but it wouldn't have meant anything. I wished for you to see me. And want… — Rachel Vincent Copy Share Image
Kaylee and Nash are like those rocks that ancient cave people used to make fire. Bang them together, and you get sparks."… — Rachel Vincent Copy Share Image
You're the brightest thing I've ever seen, Kaylee. You're this beautiful ball of fire spitting sparks out at the world, burning fiercely,… — Rachel Vincent Copy Share Image
Tod's eyes widened and his irises swirled in tight twists of blue. "Well, I don't see that I have much of a… — Rachel Vincent Copy Share Image
“How did you do it?" I brought the teacup to my mouth for another sip. "How did you guide Sophie's soul? I… — Rachel Vincent Copy Share Image
There’s a good kind of crazy, Kaylee,” he insisted softly, reaching out to wrap his warm hand around mine. “It’s the kind… — Rachel Vincent Copy Share Image
“Only two years dead, and it was getting harder for me to feel…anything. I was starting to slip into the darkness. The… — Rachel Vincent Copy Share Image
But I'll be fine. I'll be with Tod. He's a good guy, you know." He just hides it under all the sarcasm… — Rachel Vincent Copy Share Image
You're not lost, Kaylee. You can't ever be lost, because I'll always know where you are. And if I'm not there with… — Rachel Vincent Copy Share Image
I want you, Kaylee, like I’ve never wanted anything. Ever. I want the fire. I want the heat, and the light, and… — Rachel Vincent Copy Share Image
Hey, do you wanna go out for..." His words melted with a sigh when he noticed Tod, but then he rallied with… — Rachel Vincent Copy Share Image
Near-death experiences release a lot of endorphins, resulting in a natural high," Tod whispered. "And it's totally true that one passion feeds… — Rachel Vincent Copy Share Image
I nodded, chewing my own syrup-soaked bite. "But surely that's not all there is to it. I mean, really? A big picnic?… — Rachel Vincent Copy Share Image
How long until you have to go...reap?" I whispered as my arms slid around his neck. Like we were dancing. Only we… — Rachel Vincent Copy Share Image
She got to you, too, huh?" I said, sliding onto the bench seat across from him. "Actually, I called her." Luca grinned.… — Rachel Vincent Copy Share Image
The world lost something when you died, Tod, and I know that wasn't easy for your family. But the world's loss was… — Rachel Vincent Copy Share Image
I'm not going to lose you, Kaylee. No matter what I have to do, or whom I have to fight. Even if… — Rachel Vincent Copy Share Image
“The three of you are enough to drive a mara mad. 'She can wear my shirt,’" she growled in imitation of Nash."No,… — Rachel Vincent Copy Share Image
You just say the word, and I'll make the rest of the world go away. I'll take you someplace safe, where no one else… — Rachel Vincent Copy Share
So, what now? We’re friends?" Yeah. If friends could be in love, but not together. In sync, but out of touch. Willing to die… — Rachel Vincent Copy Share
“You'll have to give me a minute here. Gravity's a real bitch this morning. Ian to Kori” — Rachel Vincent Copy Share
Wow," Liv said, when I dropped the mallet back into the drawer. "That looked like fun. I call dibs on the next over-the-top destruction… — Rachel Vincent Copy Share
“So...what are you delivering today -- pizza or death?" "Both, actually. Pepperoni for you now, and a fatal aneurism to the woman in room… — Rachel Vincent Copy Share
“My hands wrapped around his waist, traveling up the broad expanse of his back, mooth and hard, and... "Give it a rest, already," Tod… — Rachel Vincent Copy Share
“I don't even like regular plants. Except for corsages and long-stemmed roses...and those only hurt when they don't show up.” — Rachel Vincent Copy Share
“I want everyone to get plenty of rest tonight, because tomorrow, we make plans to bury the new council chair. And don't worry about… — Rachel Vincent Copy Share
“Take a nice, long look at your future, reaper. You'll soon be burning as fuel for hundreds of tiny fires." Tod laughed out loud.… — Rachel Vincent Copy Share
“Whoever said it is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved was full of crap.” — Rachel Vincent Copy Share
If she were going to die, I'd already be screaming. I'm a Banshee. That's what we do. — Rachel Vincent Copy Share
You're not lost, Kaylee. You can't ever be lost, because I'll always know where you are. And if I'm not there with you, I'm… — Rachel Vincent Copy Share
“Why would you do that? Why the hell would you ever think I wanted you to do that? I’m supposed to protect you.” Liv’s… — Rachel Vincent Copy Share
