Favorite Quote Friday #143

Happy Friday!  What an exciting week!  The countdown has begun!  Only 4 days to go before Night Unbound is released!  Woohooo!!!!  I have so much to share with you!

The reviews are steadily rolling in, and I could not be more pleased!  Here are some more of my favorite snippets:

“When I read Duvall's first work, I knew this was going to be a brilliant series. Duvall's storytelling is simply spellbinding, sucking you in and keeping you invested. I highly recommend any paranormal romance reader to check out the Immortal Guardian series, you won't be disappointed.”

—Tome Tender

“Wow! Where do I start? The chemistry between all the characters is spot-on. The author effortlessly makes you believe they have lived and battled together for centuries with their fierce loyalty and easy banter. They made me laugh out loud and yes, shed tears. I loved every minute of it.”

—Reading in Pajamas

“I love the Immortal Guardians! Zach and Lisette are now my second favorite characters just after Bastian and Melanie. I re-read this story after I finished. I just didn’t want to let them go.”

—eBookObsessed

“A paranormal must have of epic proportions. I’ve been smitten with Dianne’s characters and her Immortal Guardian world since the first book in the series, but this story took everything I like about it and super-sized it.  Night Unbound took my heart through the emotional paces. From hilarity . . .  To blazing sensuality that turned my blood to molten lava . . . To delightful camaraderie . . . To swoon worthy and heart achingly lovely moments.”

It's time once more for Favorite Quote Friday!  In anticipation of next week's release, I thought I would give you a brief excerpt of Night Unbound:  

She smiled and grabbed the vampires’ sticky clothing.  

“What?” Zach asked as he helped.  

“Nothing.  It’s just . . . ”  She straightened.  “I like that you let me be me,” she said with a shrug.  “I like that you think I’m strong.”  

“You are strong.”  

“But you also appreciate my femininity.”  

“I more than appreciate it,” he said with a leer.  

She grinned.  “Yet you aren’t overprotective like my brothers and Seth, all of whom can drive me up the wall sometimes.”  

“Oh, but I am.  I cringe every time a battle arises.  And my inner Neanderthal awakens whenever I think you’re in danger.”  

“Your inner Neanderthal?”  

He nodded.  “I believe you met him when I ordered you to never defy me again.”  

She winked.  “Your inner Neanderthal gave me multiple orgasms.”

A huge thank you to everyone who has pre-ordered Night Unbound.  I can't wait to hear what you think of Zach and Lisette's story.  I hope you'll enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it.  :-)

Have a wonderful weekend!
