Ready to start the new year with some more quirky quotes?

Here’s a few that intrigued me.

1. Beware the man of one book. Thomas Aquinas.

(And isn’t that an interesting thought?) 

2. When making a decision of minor importance, I have always found it advantageous to consider all the pros and cons. In vital matters, however, such as the choice of a mate or a profession, decisions should always come from the subconscious, from somewhere within ourselves. The important decisions of our personal lives should be governed by the deep inner needs of our nature. Sigmund Freud. 

3. The thing that’s important too know is that you never know. You’re always sort of feeling your way. Diane Arbus, photographer. 

4. If you judge people, you have no time to love them. Mother Teresa. 

5. Never be the first to arrive at a party or the last to go home. And never ever, be both. David Brown

With the new year underway I find myself playing catch-up. Luckily my edits on Forbidden Pursuit are done, and I’ll end with an excerpt. Hope you like it. 

"She threw back her head and used one hand to smooth her heavy hair from her laughing face.

“Arden, you frightened me. Oh, and you’re right. C’est merveilleuse. Swimming nude is so wonderful, I doubt I’ll ever want to put my suit on again.”

“You won’t have to if you marry me. We can always swim like this. Together. As much as you want.”

She started to answer, and then reared back to look into his eyes.

“You’re serious, aren’t you? But we haven’t known each other long enough for you to feel certain of what you’re saying.”

“Haven’t we?” His voice was rough as grabbed her legs and wrapped them around his waist. She clung to his shoulders, her eyes shocked but curious and intrigued. His scorching kiss widened her eyes even further, but she made no move except to tighten her hold on his neck.

Arden hadn’t planned what he did next, it was simply the only thing in the world he could do. He indulged in the kisses they both enjoyed, kissing her face, her lips, and finally her breasts. She gave a little gasp, clinging to him tightly and squeezed her legs around him. Kissing her all the while, he lifted her nude body and let it slowly slide down on his fully erect cock. Brielle started to push him away, but his hot kisses seemed irresistible to her, and she kissed him back with ardency even as he continued his slow entry. She didn’t protest, in fact she clung to him with innocent ardor. Once his cock was fully seated in her tight vagina, he took over, kissing her with an abandoned passion he’d not allowed himself before. He lifted her body up and down, slowly at first. The knowledge he was finally possessing her pushed him over the edge much too quickly, swallowed his shout and letting his head drop the top of her hair.

She gasped again. “You put something warm in me.”
