Today is always my favorite day! Book Boyfriends!

So many of my favorites that I have listed for the past 3 years had their series end this year so I am sad that this is the last time I will be able to feature them.

Thursday, December 26^th – Best Book Boyfriends of 2013 (MUST be from a book released in 2013 and from a book you’ve READ in 2013)

My one and only

Adrian Ivashkov

 "Sydney spent a lot of time on my bed these days.
Unfortunately, it wasn't with me."


 "I won’t lie. Walking into a room and seeing your girlfriend reading a baby-name book can kind of make your heart stop.
“I’m no expert,” I began, choosing my words carefully. “Well—actually, I am. And I’m pretty sure there are certain things we have to do before you need to be reading that."

Jem Carstairs

  "His eyes went soft and silver as she spoke. “Zhe shi jie shang, wo shi zui ai ne de,” he whispered.
She understood it. In all the world, you are what I love the most."


 "Did you like it?" he said. "I could have given you...jewelry, but I wanted it to be something that was wholly yours. That no one else would hear or own. And I am not good with words, so I wrote how I felt about you in music." He paused. "Did you like it?"

Tod Hudson

 "Have I ever told you how sexy your brain is?"
"Finally! A man who wants me for my brain."
"I want all of you. Each individual part and the sum of them all. I want you for everything you are and everything you will ever be. I will never have enough of you, because there's no such thing." He stared right into my eyes, and I couldn't have looked away if I'd wanted to. I was trapped, and never in my life had I been so happy to be caught. "I will never let you go again."


 "Do you really think this is appropriate on school grounds?"
"Nope." I wrapped my arms around his neck. "And I happen to know there isn't an appropriate thought running through your head right now."
"Or any other time." Tod pulled me close and held me so tight my ribs almost hut, but I didn't want him to let go. Ever.

Andrew Parrish

 "You’re the world to me,” I whisper onto
her lips. “I hope you never forget that.”
“I’ll never forget,” she whispers back.. “But if I ever do, for
whatever reason, I hope you’ll always find a way to remind me.”
...“Always."

"I promise to love you forever in this life and wherever we go in the afterlife, because I know I can't go on in any life unless you're in it too."

Seth

I know many love Aidan but Seth is so much more fun. He's had some great lines throughout the series.


"You know what?” His breath was warm against my cheek. “There are a lot of stupid things to do, but I really want to do the stupidest thing possible.”
“What’s that?”
“I want to kiss you."


 He followed me around the edge of the bed. "I've been told my lips can make a girl forget just about anything. You should try it out."

Mal

& Sturmhond

  "The Darkling will hunt you for the rest of your days."
"Then you and I will have something in common, won't we? Besides, I like to have powerful enemies. Makes me feel important."
Mal crossed his arms and considered the privateer. "I can't decide if you're crazy or stupid."
"I have so many good qualities," Sturmhond said. "It can be hard to choose."


 "And there's no way I'm leaving you alone with Prince Perfect."
"So you don't trust me to resist his charms?"
"I don't even trust myself. I've never seen anyone work a crowd the way he does. I'm pretty sure the rocks and trees are getting ready to swear fealty to him."


"I have loved you all my life, Mal," I whispered through my tears. "There is no end to our story." 

Zeke

"You're still beautiful and dangerous and incredible, and I'll keep telling you that for as long as it takes you to believe it. But right now, all I want to do is kiss you, except I'm terrified that if I try you might throw me off this balcony."

"Only death will take me away from you, vampire girl," he whispered. "And even then, I'll watch over you from wherever I end up." 

Kale

"A slow smile spread across his lips, and he threaded his fingers through mine. "I can see why I like you."

 "As long as I know this" - he lifted our joined hands - "is mine to hold, I'll wait for you forever."

Tucker Avery

"How did you do that?”
I shrug. “I click my heels three times and say, ‘There’s no place like home.’”
“Uh-huh. So … you think this is your home? My barn? His tone is playful, but the look he’s giving me is dead serious. A question.
“Haven’t you guessed by now?” I say, my heart hammering. “My home is you."


 "What we have is divine. It's beautiful and good and right. I feel it..." He presses his his hand to his chest, over his heart. "I feel it all the time. You're in here, part of me. You're what I go to bed thinking about and what I wake up to in the morning."

Daemon

"I want a years-worth of seconds and minutes with you. I want a decade's worth of hours, so many that I can't add them up."


 "Did you think you could stop me? I'll burn the world down to save her."


 "I want to marry you because I'm in love with you, Kat. I will always be in love with you. That's not going to change today or two weeks from now. I will be just as in love with you in twenty years as I am today."

Levi

"It's very real. It's also sturdy. You can ride it if you want."
I laughed. "The only bird I'm riding is you."
He chuckled. "I love when you talk dirty."


"A reminder?"
"That you will always come first. The Society, the crown, none of that matters as much as you do."
