10 “Highlights” from Some of Our Favorite Authors
Sistah Girls, what do you highlight when reading? Since my power was out (for 3 whole daysđ€), I decided to look back through some of the books I have enjoyed.
I thought itâd be fun to feature some memorable lines from a few of our favorite authors! So here are 10 highlights that will make you snicker, swoon, and swerve. Enjoy!
Snicker
âWhoa was ready to meet her at the altar in her white dress like Jagged Edge and she said nah, we still young.â â Whoa by Alexandra Warren
“So, youâll accept my needs in the marriage bed without complaint?â âAs long as you extend me the same courtesy.â âGood women donât have needs.â She scoffed, âAnd you call yourself a doctorâŠâ –Tempest by Beverly Jenkins
“As Ryshon and Little X moved to leave, Lex continued picking at the cake when she casually asked, “Oh, so you the one that couldn’t make her come with your mouth?” –End Zone Love by Love Belvin
Swoon
âI donât just want you when youâre strong. I want you when youâre vulnerable when youâre lost when youâre not sure. I see the armor you have to put on to make it in your world. I just want you to know here, with me, you can take the armor off.â –Queen Move by Kennedy Ryan
âI would walk through the fires of hell to have your legs wrapped around me for one hour. Climb Mount Everest without a rope to have one taste of the juice that flows between those thighs. Give my life over to Christ to have you in my life for eternity.â –Fatal Mistake by Iris Bolling
“You. Are. Beautiful. You are my world and my afterlife, the food of my soul, my thirst-quencher. You are my beginning, my end, and everything in between. My Oshun, my sangoma, my balm, my pain relief. You’re my home, baby. My home.” –Let Me Free You by Alexandria House
Swerve
âIn case youâre worried about anything, just keep in mind that size doesnât matter because a womanâs body is built to adjust.â âFinding Home Again by Brenda Jackson
âFor the next hour, we had sex on the outdoor cot as many times as one condom could holdâŠâ âWhatâs Best for Me by Danesha Little
