Stephenie Meyer
“Do you really have any idea how important you are to me? Any concept at all of how much I love you?" He pulled me tighter against his hard chest, tucking my head under his chin.

I pressed my lips against his snow-cold neck. "I know how much I love you," I answered.

You compare one small tree to the entire forest."

I rolled my eyes, but he couldn't see. "Impossible.”
Stephenie Meyer, Eclipse

Helen Hoang
“Women buy underwear for the men they love. It’s economics. Data supports this claim.”
“Are you telling me you love me, Stella?”
She hugged Karate Bear tight and nodded, suddenly overcome by shyness.
“You’re not going to give me the words?” he asked.
“I’ve never said them to anyone but my parents.”
“You think I run around telling women I love them?”
He pulled her close and pressed their foreheads together.
“I’m going to get the words out of you. Tonight.”
Helen Hoang, The Kiss Quotient

Patricia Highsmith
“Carol raised her hand slowly and brushed her hair back, once on either side, and Therese smiled because the gesture was Carol, and it was Carol she loved and would always love. Oh, in a different way now because she was a different person, and it was like meeting Carol all over again, but it was still Carol and no one else. It would be Carol, in a thousand cities, a thousand houses, in foreign lands where they would go together, in heaven and in hell. Therese waited. Then as she was about to go to her, Carol saw her, seemed to stare at her incredulously a moment while Therese watched the slow smile growing, before her arm lifted suddenly, her hand waved a quick, eager greeting that Therese had never seen before. Therese walked toward her.”
Patricia Highsmith, The Price of Salt

Emily Henry
“I've never met someone who is so perfectly my favorite person. When I think about being with you every day, no part of me feels claustrophobic. And when I think about having to have the kinds of fights with you that Naomi and I used to have, there's nothing scary about it. Because I trust you, more than I've ever trusted anyone - The world looks different than I ever thought it could be, and I don't want to look for what's broken or what could go wrong. I don't want to brace myself for the worst and miss out on being with you. I want to be the one who gives you what you deserve - and I don't think I ever could deserve any of that, and I know this things between us isn't a sure thing, but that's what I want to aim for with you. Because I know no matter how long I get to love you, it will be worth whatever comes after.”
Emily Henry, Beach Read

Holly Black
“I let go of him and remain standing. I promised myself I would do this, if I ever had the chance again.. I promised I would do this the first moment I could.

'I love you,' I say, the words coming out in an unintelligible rush.

Cardan looks taken aback. Or possibly I spoke so fast he's not even sure what I said. 'You need not say it out of pity,' he says finally, with great deliberateness. 'Or because I was under a curse. I have asked you to lie to me in the past, in this very room, but I would beg you not to lie now.'

My cheeks heat at the memory of those lies.

'I have not made myself easy to love,' he says, and I hear the echo of his mother's words in his.

When I imagined telling him, I thought I would say the words, and it would be like pulling off a bandage- painful and swift. But I didn't think he would doubt me. 'I first started liking you when we went to talk to the rulers of the low Courts,' I say. 'You were funny, which was weird. And when we went to Hollow Hall, you were clever. I kept remembering how you'd been the one to get us out of the brugh after Dain's coronation, right before I put the knife to your throat.'

He doesn't try to interrupt, so I have to choice but to barrel on.

'After I tricked you into being High King,' I say. 'I thought once you hated me, I could go back to hating you. But I didn't. And I felt so stupid. I thought I would get my heart broken. I thought it was a weakness that you would use against me. But then you saved me from the Undersea when it would have been much more convenient to just leave me to rot. After that, I started to hope my feelings were returned. But then there was the exile-' I take a ragged breath. 'I hid a lot, I guess. I thought if I didn't, if I let myself love you, I would burn up like a match. Like the whole matchbook.'

'But now you've explained it,' he says. 'And you do love me.'

'I love you,' I confirm.

'Because I am clever and funny,' he says, smiling. 'You didn't mention my handsomeness.'

'Or your deliciousness,' I say. 'Although those are both good qualities.'

He pulls me to him, so that we're both lying on the couch. I look down at the blackness of his eyes and the softness of his mouth. I wipe a fleck of dried blood from the top of one pointed ear. 'What was it like?' I ask. 'Being a serpent.'

He hesitates. 'It was like being trapped in the dark,' he says. 'I was alone, and my instinct was to lash out. I was perhaps not entirely an animal, but neither was I myself. I could not reason. There was only feelings- hatred and terror and the desire to destroy.'

I start to speak, but he stops me with a gesture. 'And you.' He looks at me, his lips curving in something that's not quite a smile; it's more and less than that. 'I knew little else, but I always knew you.'

And when he kisses me, I feel as though I can finally breathe again.”
Holly Black, The Queen of Nothing

Brittainy C. Cherry
This woman controls my heartbeats. Every love lyric I sing each night is made for her. Every melody chases her heartbeat, and every chorus begs for her love. It has been brought to my attention that a few people on my management team have chosen to approach the love of my life and tell her that she wasn't good for my image. Due to her looks and the past she had no say in creating, they said she wasn't good enough. It's true, we grew up in the same town, but that didn't mean our home lives were built on the same steady foundation. I was blessed enough to never know struggle. This girl had to fight tooth and nail for everything she was given. She sacrificed her own youth, because she didn't want her little sister to go into the foster system. She gave up love, in order for me to go chase my dreams. She gives and gives in order to make others happy, because that's the person she is.

She's the most beautiful human being alive, and for anyone--especially people who are supposed to be in my corner--to say differently disgusts me to my core. I am not a robot. I hurt, I ache, I love, and I cry. And it breaks me to live in a world where I have to be afraid of showing who I really am in order to gain followers.

So if you don't like this fact--that I am not single and that I am hopelessly in love--then that's fine. If I lose fans over this, I'm okay with that. I will make every sacrifice in the world from this point on in order to give my love fully to the woman who has given more than she ever should've had to give. I love you, Haze. From the new moon to the fullest. From now until forever.

Brittainy C. Cherry, The Wreckage of Us

Caroline   George
“I need a day with you, then another. I need an infinite amount of last days with you because none of them, no matter what we do, will be good enough to encapsulate how much I love you.”
Caroline George, Dearest Josephine

I love you don't forget me whatever hpapens to me. I love you.
Robert Galbraith, Troubled Blood

Alexandre Dumas fils
“It is this, that ever since I have seen you, I know not why, you have taken a place in my life; that, if I drive the thought of you out of my mind, it always comes back; that when I met you to-day, after not having seen you for two years, you made a deeper impression on my heart and mind than ever; that, now that you have let me come to see you, now that I know you, now that I know all that is strange in you, you have become a necessity of my life, and you will drive me mad, not only if you will not love me, but if you will not let me love you.”
Alexandre Dumas fils, La Dame aux Camélias

Cookie O'Gorman
“Princess," he said quietly, "you know I kind of love you, right?"
"I kind of love you too," I said back.”
Cookie O'Gorman, Cupcake

Elena  Armas
“This man. He kept showing me how perfect he was. Kept unveiling all these beautiful parts of him that made me giddy and dizzy and hungry for more. But I still felt like I was standing on the edge of a cliff, looking down at an ocean that whirled in the same deep blue that colored his eyes. Would I dare to jump?”
Elena Armas, The Spanish Love Deception

William Shakespeare
“OPHELIA: Could beauty, my lord, have better commerce
than with honesty?
HAMLET: Ay, truly. For the power of beauty will sooner
transform honesty from what it is to a bawd
than the force of honesty can translate beauty
into his likeness. This was sometime a paradox,
but now the time gives it proof. I did love
you once.”
William Shakespeare, Hamlet

I'm so full of drugs I cant feel anything but I know I love you. I wonder how much they'd have to give me before that went too. Engouh to kill me I suppose.
Robert Galbraith, Troubled Blood

“Mostly Strike was savoring the pleasure it had given him to hear Robin return his declaration of affection.”
Robert Galbraith, Troubled Blood

Caroline   George
“I promise my arms will always welcome you. My soul will never grow cold toward you. My safe place—my home—is yours also, and regardless of where you go, who you love, I will adore you, endlessly.”
Caroline George, Dearest Josephine

Virginia'dele Smith
“Life is messy. It’s scary and it’s hard and it’s painful. And every bit of it is worth the risk because love is so much more than any one of those difficult emotions. It’s more than all of them put together. That kind of love makes every day a little brighter. It makes colors more brilliant and laughter more contagious. It’s wonderful. It’s all-encompassing. And it’s a gift.”

She stepped closer, placing her right hand over his heart.

“Rhys, that’s the kind of love I want. That’s the kind of love we can have. Together.”
Virginia'dele Smith, Grocery Girl

Astrid Jane Ray
“Isydoris stared at him, her mind still clouded with doubts. “So, if you do not associate yourself with slaves, servants, or even former princesses, what kind of women do meet your high royal standards?”

The reigh smirked and caressed her face. “The kind who know their worth and stay true to their principles. Indeed, I admire women who radiate beauty and innocence…with just the right amount of wit and feistiness. But I must admit they are very difficult to find. As a matter of fact, so far, I have encountered only one such.”
Astrid Jane Ray, The Queen of Aessarion

Kevin Smith
“Even if we never talk again after tonight, please know that I’m forever changed because of who you are, and what you’ve meant to me.”
Kevin Smith, Tough Shit: Life Advice from a Fat, Lazy Slob Who Did Good

Cher
“If I could reach the stars
I'd give 'em all to you
Then you'd love me, love me
Like you used to do”
Cher

Serena Bell
“Because of you is the best reason I know.”
Serena Bell, Wilder at Last

Amity Steffen
“I love you, Cassie Anderson, and I think you love me too.”
Amity Steffen

“Maybe Manon secretly wanted me to crush her in an irresistible embrace, instead of saying in my hopeless English way, 'Oh, OK then, sorry to have bothered you.”
Stephen Clarke, Merde in Europe

Sarah J. Maas
“But if you're not my mate, Athalar, no one is.'

'A winning declaration of love.”
Sarah J. Maas, House of Sky and Breath

Carissa Broadbent
“You want more than I can give you,' I whispered.

'I can't imagine that ever being true,' he murmured. 'Because I want only you, Lilith. Whatever of you I can have. I'll take one night. One hour. One minute. Whatever you want to give me. I'll have it.”
Carissa Broadbent, Six Scorched Roses

Carissa Broadbent
“Whatever you wish to give me,' he repeated, slowly, like he wanted to make sure I understood. 'I'll have it.”
Carissa Broadbent, Six Scorched Roses

“You want to know how I see you?' Forster's voice turned husky. Detta's mouth was swollen from grazing his stubble and he couldn't stop looking at it, at her. 'When we are together, all I can think of is you, and when sleep comes, I dream of you.' Detta had stilled yet he continued, unable to stop. 'And when we're apart, I ache for you. Missing you is a physical pain that I cannot rid myself of and nor would I ever choose to because there is no sweeter pain than that which reminds me of you. You are my everything.”
M.A. Kuzniar, Upon a Frosted Star

“If I managed to keep just one person alive, I wanted it to be you. Just you, Em. Because if you died, there wouldn’t be anything of me left. - Taly, pg. 602”
Stephanie Fisher

“Tell me you hate me, and I’ll still count every heartbeat, every freckle, every shiver of your body, if only you say it with a smile.” He backs away, freeing my face from his hands. “I may be a monster, but if you cut me, I’ll bleed. And if you break my heart, Pae, you’ll break me. So, if even a sliver of your soul longs for mine, I’ll spend the rest of my life trying to deserve it.”
Lauren Roberts, Reckless

Sara Raasch
“I fell in love with you," he started, and her heart hammered, hammered in her chest. "Not Aurora, not even Briar--- but you, your joy and your dreams and your laughter in the woods. The fact that you ended up being Aurora anyway solidified that this is fate. You and me. If it is magic manipulating us yet again, then this is one coercion I accept with open arms. I know everything you've been through, everything you've lost and been given anew, but I want you to know that I am going into this marriage fully and clearly. I am yours, yours, whoever you choose to be, Briar or Aurora or someone new. There is no iteration of you that I will not fall in love with, and I hope you can see me as something solid to lean on when all else is in question.”
Sara Raasch, A Sword In Slumber

E.H. Young
“You stay with me all the time: you always will. You're like music, always in my head, but you're more than that. You go deeper: I suppose into my heart. Sometimes I think I'm carrying you in my arms. I can't see you but I can feel you're there, and sometimes I laugh because I think you're laughing.”
E.H. Young, The Misses Mallett: The Bridge Dividing
