“Regrets are the most useless form of guilt. They always arrive too late to do any good.”

“I do love you. I think you know that, but just in case...I love you. ” ― Eileen Wilks, On the Prowl
“People always wanted someone to blame, didn't they?” ― Eileen Wilks, On the Prowl
“How to put this feeling, this certainty, into something as limited as words?” ― Eileen Wilks, On the Prowl
“Dogs make sense. They understand hierarchy and the need to cooperate. They come when you call them. A cat though—a cat will take your number and get back to you. Maybe. If he’s in a good mood.” ― Eileen Wilks, Mortal Danger
“You're so far off base this time you can't even see the base!” ― Eileen Wilks, On the Prowl
“We don't go to the ocean for anything as simple as happiness, do we? Wego there to feel alive. Like life, the ocean holds chance and change, grief and terror and beauty. It promises mortality, not peace.” ― Eileen Wilks, Tempting Danger
“Women were complicated creatures. Any man who thought he had one figured out simply wasn’t paying attention,” ― Eileen Wilks, Mortal Danger
“I need to check your ankle.” “Ask.” “If you object, I—” “Giving me a chance to object is not the same as asking permission. You’re used to telling people what to do. That works with those guards you’re in charge of. You aren’t in charge of me. You have to ask.” One corner of his mouth turned up. “It’s more efficient my way.” “If your primary goal in life is efficiency, you should just die.” That startled him.

Done.” She dusted her hands to demonstrate that. “It’s too late for you to achieve optimal efficiency, but you could still . . .” ― Eileen Wilks, Blood Challenge
“Who wants to feel everything everyone else feels all the time?” ― Eileen Wilks, On the Prowl
“Don't call the man a claustrophobe just because small spaces scare him. Right.” ― Eileen Wilks, Tempting Danger
“She wasn’t entertainment for him. Hedidn’t need her to make him laugh or bolster his ego or to figure him out so he wouldn’t have to. A lot of men who said they were looking for a relationship really wanted a combination sex buddy, therapist, and mirror.” ― Eileen Wilks, Mortal Danger
“But when you slice truth too thin, you deceive.” ― Eileen Wilks, Mortal Danger
“But not all scars showed, did they?” ― Eileen Wilks, Mortal Ties
“Marriage and especially the ceremony which announces it, the wedding... That is how we say to the world, 'These two are now a family, and with this joining our families are joined, too. And you had damned well better respect that.” ― Eileen Wilks, Blood Magic
“He stared at the heart of his heart, the one woman in the world for him” ― Eileen Wilks, Tempting Danger
“Uh - do you want to do it outside?"Frequently. Oh, you meant the wedding. That, too.” ― Eileen Wilks, Blood Magic
“I see you. I will be careful with the places that hurt.” ― Eileen Wilks, Mortal Sins
“We aren't guaranteed the time we think weneed to mend fences with those we love.” ― Eileen Wilks, Blood Lines
