“You lose at times. But that doesn’t mean you stop trying. You go out again and again, and maybe next time, you win. And if you dont, well…then, the game isn’t over yet.” He turns to look at me.”

How to Honeymoon Alone
“Maybe that’s what happens on vacation. You leave all your stuff behind, all the baggage, and for a short period of time, you can forge an entirely new identify. Keeping only the best parts of yourself and adding new facets, like trying on a costume for size.” ― Olivia Hayle, How to Honeymoon Alone
“Tourists and pigeons,” he mutters, reaching for another French fry. “The bane of every big-city dweller.” ― Olivia Hayle, Think Outside the Boss
“Perhaps she’s a siren. Capturing men, soul after soul.” ― Olivia Hayle, Saved by the Boss
“Singing has been… difficult since Robin. During his time, too. The little comments about my pitch and my breathing. The smirk as he listened for something to comment on. He’d sucked all the fun out of it. He’d done that with most things.” ― Olivia Hayle, Saved by the Boss
“He continues as if I didn’t speak. “Now, you never gave me back the thermometer. I thought that was why you showed up.” I sink down onto my couch. “It was just a pretext.” “Yeah, well, I’m here on the same one.” There’s a knock on my front door. “Let me in, Holland. I want my thermometer back.” ― Olivia Hayle, Billion Dollar Enemy
“His hand reached out, fingers tracing down my bare arm. Goosebumps followed his touch. “And why are you here? Are you looking to hook up with someone?”“And if I were?”Julian’s eyes darkened. “Then I’m happy I came. I’ll be the one in the back, waving a giant homemade sign saying ‘pick me, pick me.’”I burst out laughing. He was being silly, but my insides warmed at the thought.” ― Olivia Hayle, Arrogant Boss
“minimal. You’ll be married to me for a year and not a day longer. After all, you’ve lasted one year with me already. What’s one more?” I stand on hollow legs. His words make no sense, and yet they do, and that’s why I have to leave. Because I know Victor St. Clair gets what he wants. And he’s not getting me. “I’m sorry, sir. But I’m not interested.” “Take the weekend to think on it. We’ll discuss it further on Monday.” I force the next words out. “No, we won’t. I’m not interested.” “Of course, Miss Myers. We’ll see where we stand next week.” I shake my head, more to myself than for him, and head for the door. The bleak, impersonal atrium that is my office has never seemed so welcoming before.” ― Olivia Hayle, Say Yes to the Boss
“If she only knew how many of the good-for-nothing boys have the hots for beautiful, sweet, fierce Lily Marchand. I would know. I’m the president of that particular fan club.” ― Olivia Hayle, Dark Eyed Devil
“I like winning… and I like making sure the woman I’m with wins, too. Several times.” ― Olivia Hayle, How to Honeymoon Alone
“He’s in his mid-thirties, after all.” ― Olivia Hayle, Think Outside the Boss
“The” ― Olivia Hayle, A Ticking Time Boss
“And I know I always want to be the man she sighs like this for. The man she confides her fears in. The man she trusts and holds on to.” ― Olivia Hayle, Think Outside the Boss
“Things don’t need to be perfect to be worth doing.” ― Olivia Hayle, Think Outside the Boss
“I’m not drunk.” “Sure you’re not.” “I’m just… elevated by the juice of the grape.” ― Olivia Hayle, Saved by the Boss
“She feels like an extension of me— the two of us one person. My strength and my courage, my conscience and my sanity.” ― Olivia Hayle, Rogue
“spend” ― Olivia Hayle, Arrogant Boss
“Julian: :D” ― Olivia Hayle, Arrogant Boss
“As it turns out, silent begging usually falls on deaf ears. Who knew?” ― Olivia Hayle, Billion Dollar Beast
