Even in A Sentence

    1

    A few more days, and even I wouldn't have been able to undo what Wynn did.

    2

    A man may grow rich in Turkey even, if he will be in all respects a good subject of the Turkish government.

    3

    A real live mystery, even if it's probably only a fender-bender auto case.

    4

    Accepting, loving, trusting someone – even if bonded – was beyond Immortal Laws to dictate.

    5

    After a childhood filled with foster homes, she feared getting too comfortable, even in the home of the man who adopted her twelve years ago, when she was ten.

    6

    After all you've gone through, it's a shame you can't even get a decent night's sleep.

    7

    After all, even if it was the right time, it didn't mean pregnancy was inevitable.

    8

    All her dresses now fit snugly across the bust, and even her skinny legs were beginning to have some attractive curves.

    9

    All of you need an exit strategy; even the baby.

    10

    All that July the old prince was exceedingly active and even animated.

    11

    An answer was impossible, even if she could stop coughing long enough.

    12

    Anatole Kuragin's father managed somehow to get his son's affair hushed up, but even he was ordered out of Petersburg.

    13

    And he won't run - not even if you flog him.

    14

    And now it was gone, not even a trace lingering as he spoke.

    15

    And now she was even resenting Alex for telling his father.

    16

    And recognize we have a life, even if it's only by necessity; the bills keep coming and I get hungry once in a while.

    17

    And then she'd tried to eat chocolate and ended up in the bathroom even weaker and hungrier.

    18

    And this man was saying we were going to the moon in a rocket ship made of metals we hadn't even invented.

    19

    And yet, even after he knew she suspected something, he made no attempt to send her home.

    20

    And yet, she was reluctant to say anything to church members - even family members.

    21

    Anyone who even identified him would immediately attain national prominence just by doing so.

    22

    Are you even trying to find Bianca?

    23

    Are you trying to tell me he hasn't even noticed all that?

    24

    As she'd never even visited an airport much less flown, frequent traveler Betsy carefully told her the dos and don'ts while she printed her boarding pass.

    25

    As they watched, the figures in the dusty heat waves finally became recognizable as cavalry - even to the naked eye.

    26

    At first she had hoped, even prayed he would return.

    27

    At the funeral, you didn't even set with us.

    28

    Beautiful women that rivaled Claire and men so handsome, even age couldn't diminish their muscular bodies or riveting looks.

    29

    Because I love you, even if you are a...

    30

    Besides, I couldn't even talk about Annie without bawling my eyes out.

    31

    Betsy and I agreed and even Martha smiled.

    32

    Bianca held her breath and waited, able to feel the tension between them even with her eyes closed until he spoke again.

    33

    Brennan gave me the phone number even though I didn't agree to call.

    34

    Bunches of the letters hadn't even been opened yet.

    35

    But even old Jim has been saying things since we had our accident.

    36

    But even that is not enough.

    37

    But even when it's overcast, like today, you can get some interesting images; not so much close ups, but distance shots, with fog rolling down the valley and blankets of flowers shrouded in mist.

    38

    But I'm out of the loop now, even more so now that the spooks are on my back.

    39

    But if he didn't act, no one walked away from here alive, even her.

    40

    But it didn't, and even when she slept, she dreamed of him again.

    41

    But now Quinn's gone too, so Howie couldn't go back even if he got up his courage to do it!

    42

    But on the road, the highroad along which the troops marched, there was no such freshness even at night or when the road passed through the forest; the dew was imperceptible on the sandy dust churned up more than six inches deep.

    43

    But she was nine, and Jonny was even smaller at four.

    44

    But there was another reason she dared not leave her father, one she feared voicing even to the man before her.

    45

    But this puts an infinitely worse face on the matter, and suggests, beside, that probably not even the other three succeed in saving their souls, but are perchance bankrupt in a worse sense than they who fail honestly.

    46

    But you're different than even Sean.

    47

    Cade knew how to be a friend, even if he didn't know what to say.

    48

    Can he even carry a gun?

    49

    Can you imagine that... a guy in his thirties not even knowing if he's ever been kissed?

    50

    Damian, I'm a monster, even in your world.

    51

    Damian's feelings for her swelled even more.

    52

    Darian had even tried to warn him, and he'd never wanted to see what was in front of him.

    53

    Darian lay on his back staring at the ceiling with brooding golden eyes, his horribly scarred body hidden under turtleneck and gloves and socks, even in the safety of his room.

    54

    Darkyn gave her the power to seduce without the knowledge on how to turn off its effects, if it was even possible.

    55

    Dean didn't even offer a quip about Fred's tightness with a buck and his moth-eaten purse as the old man called over a waitress to do the duties.

    56

    Deidre had no idea what to say and even less of an idea what exactly happened when the deal was over.

    57

    Deidre had the sense of speaking a different language, even though she understood his words.

    58

    Destiny probably wouldn't wake before they returned, and even if she did, Señor Medena would keep her occupied.

    59

    Did Cade even know how to be romantic?

    60

    Difficult as it was to believe he was involved in something like this, it was even harder to believe he had no interest in her.

    61

    Do those two things even compare?

    62

    Don't even think about it.

    63

    Dusty knew the memory of killing in order to be initiated wasn't something even Bianca could take away from him.

    64

    Dusty wrenched the bedroom door open, even angrier to see Darian and Bianca on the couch, talking.

    65

    Even a bird is smart enough to push the fledgling out of the nest when it fails to fly on its own.

    66

    Even after my illness I remembered one of the words I had learned in these early months.

    67

    Even after thousands of years he was reliving the pain of his brother's death.

    68

    Even as she spoke, she saw pieces of his future blink in her thoughts.

    69

    Even as she thought it, she knew it wasn't true.

    70

    Even as the idea occurred that she would rather have this room, she knew she couldn't ask.

    71

    Even as tired as she was, his arms were a welcome haven.

    72

    Even at a distance it was obvious that the man was much taller and he rode with a proud kind of grace that her father never possessed.

    73

    Even at this hour a piano was pounding out a raucous tune in one of the three saloons.

    74

    Even Bird Song's gilded front sign, advertising the bed and breakfast, had been washed of a year's dust from the unpaved side street.

    75

    Even Bordeaux seemed to be in good spirits.

    76

    Even Dulce isn't interested in that part.

    77

    Even ever-smiling Maria, the newly hired helper, put her smile on hold and looked ready to cry.

    78

    Even for a short time to try to relax.

    79

    Even Gabriel has, Darkyn said.

    80

    Even he does not wear it, Pierre said and motioned her to follow him towards the party below.

    81

    Even his ability to find alcohol for a party was adventurous.

    82

    Even his air was different.

    83

    Even his hands were muscular, and she couldn't help comparing his light touch to Talon's brutal grip.

    84

    Even his hat was sagging with moisture.

    85

    Even his searching hands caused her to hesitate.

    86

    Even if Brandon and Mrs. Marsh now despised her, they still needed her support.

    87

    Even if Brockville proved to be all he described, what would that tell us?

    88

    Even if he was a Mormon, how could he make plans with this Darcie when he had proposed to her only an hour ago?

    89

    Even if he was incapable of feeling real pain.

    90

    Even if he were a gorgeous stud, I wouldn't become romantically involved with my boss.

    91

    Even if his features were young and his body lean, he wasn't able to hide what he was.

    92

    Even if Howie were here, chances are we wouldn't learn a thing.

    93

    Even if I kill Damian, I'll have to deal with all his people.

    94

    Even if it hadn't been dark, visibility would have been less than a few feet.

    95

    Even if she couldn't kill the next swordsman that came for her, she could buy herself some time.

    96

    Even if she had been willing to talk, she was unable.

    97

    Even if we should come to unpleasant places on our way it is necessary, in order to reach the earth's surface, to keep moving on toward it.

    98

    Even if you did use your skills to try to kill me.

    99

    Even if you let me.

    100

    Even if you paid me half my rent, you could still save money.

    101

    Even in sleep he was irresistible.

    102

    Even in the best, most friendly and simplest relations of life, praise and commendation are essential, just as grease is necessary to wheels that they may run smoothly.

    103

    Even in the country do we get any rest?

    104

    Even it was locked.

    105

    Even Katie noticed the change in him and asked Carmen about the cause.

    106

    Even Mamma does not understand.

    107

    Even more frustrated, he pulled the food out of the oven and retreated to his office, not caring that he was drenched.

    108

    Even Mr. Cade had hinted that it was unusually large.

    109

    Even Mrs. Reynolds pitched in with some stuffed animals - a giraffe and horse.

    110

    Even now he could walk away.

    111

    Even now, as his eyes sought her forgiveness, his chin stayed up proudly.

    112

    Even now, her heart quickened and her thoughts raced to the image of him in tight black clothing.

    113

    Even our Saviour preached liberty and equality.

    114

    Even Quinn bowed his head and agreed.

    115

    Even Rachel said so.

    116

    Even she couldn't help.

    117

    Even she would have had trouble working with something so little, but his big hands dispensed with the job in short order.

    118

    Even so, Alex wasn't back by the time she got out.

    119

    Even so, I don't know anyone who admits to understanding him - much less calling him a friend.

    120

    Even so, it was as if a something had been lifted from her chest, allowing the flow of oxygen and blood to a starving brain.

    121

    Even so, she had accepted it in her mind to a degree.

    122

    Even so, she had never suspected the truth – the drugs.

    123

    Even standing on it, I was an inch or two from touching the top of the room.

    124

    Even surrounded by the enemy?

    125

    Even Tanya tried to help.

    126

    Even the ambulance siren was hard to hear.

    127

    Even the animals were quiet, as if they knew danger lurked in the darkness.

    128

    Even the crossbow she'd used the other night was clean and perched where she'd found it, loaded once again.

    129

    Even the government questioned us.

    130

    Even the isolation didn't trouble her.

    131

    Even the one where you planned to lie to me about Wynn healing Selyn.

    132

    Even the police, who see the aftermath of terrible, gut-wrenching crimes, aren't forced to watch them actually happening.

    133

    Even the pre-dawn glow creeping into the room failed to disturb him.

    134

    Even the simple act of enrolling her in school was a major chore.

    135

    Even the trash-can liner newspaper that caused us to be hunted down by reward-sniffing hounds has backed off, terminating their contest.

    136

    Even the usually bored Dawkinses ooh-ed and aah-ed appropriately but the brothers seemed more interested in the locale of the various shots than the scenery and flora so beautifully presented.

    137

    Even the way she wore her hair, with those braids wrapped around the top of her head like a crown and the long shiny blond curls falling around her shoulders and down her back – she wasn't simply beautiful.

    138

    Even the way you felt about that attic.

    139

    Even the women were at odds, almost for the first time since they'd met.

    140

    Even the younger Guardians referred to him by the ancient title that meant my king.

    141

    Even then his gaze was haunted, as if he somehow knew his fate.

    142

    Even though her skin now had a healthy tan, the sun was doing its best to burn it.

    143

    Even though it will upset the child, I shant take the time to tarry long with the woman.

    144

    Even though she had made most of the payments on the land, he still had legal claim.

    145

    Even though you know nothing about him, you accept.

    146

    Even traumatized, she was one of the sexiest women he'd ever seen.

    147

    Even when I studied most earnestly it seemed more like play than work.

    148

    Even while you were killing me.

    149

    Even with all his powers, his armies, his ability to read minds, he didn't know how to make things right with her.

    150

    Even with him taking the edge off, reality still wasn't real.

    151

    Even your horse has better sense than you do.

    152

    Even your parents had to come up to see you.

    153

    Eventually they even set us free.

    154

    Every child begins the world again, to some extent, and loves to stay outdoors, even in wet and cold.

    155

    Every vision she'd had, even when Jake touched her, had been of death.

    156

    Everyone was so supportive - even her parents, who came up to meet Brandon as soon as they heard the news.

    157

    Everyone was watching her with a horrified expression - even Jonathan and Destiny.

    158

    Everything not connected with the execution of the prince's orders did not interest and did not even exist for Alpatych.

    159

    Everything she did, she did for him, even if she feared him.

    160

    Finally even those subsided, leaving her feeling weak and drained.

    161

    For someone like him … he never even bowed down to the Dark One.

    162

    For the next week Cynthia listened to - and even found herself instigating - discussions about Mr. Cade.

    163

    Fritz kept watching her and Royce even snickered a few times.

    164

    From his home videos, he'd never lowered his guard to anyone, even Claire.

    165

    God, I can't even describe Howie... from mentioning it.

    166

    God, I don't know if I ever even kissed a girl before Julie!

    167

    Going three thousand miles away sounds like a good idea for you folks, even if it's only for a couple of days.

    168

    He adored Sofia, that much was obvious, even if he wasn't really sure where—or who—he was most of the time.

    169

    He can even spout some sports trivia and Christmas carols and stuff like that.

    170

    He chuckled hoarsely and spread butterfly kisses across her forehead, hugging her against him even tighter.

    171

    He didn't bring it up again - not even when Jonathan was unable to get his short arm into a comfortable position to play the guitar.

    172

    He didn't come back, even when it got dark and it was time for them to go inside.

    173

    He didn't even look at her when he shook his head.

    174

    He didn't even look at her, and her hope plummeted again.

    175

    He didn't even mention her family.

    176

    He didn't even prattle on about some alleged personal experiences in a diamond mine in Africa, a search for gold or other such nonsense he was expected to resurrect or invent.

    177

    He didn't even thank me for going out of my way to Philadelphia on his behalf.

    178

    He didn't have computers or even a calculator.

    179

    He didn't want to, even though he had a ton of things to do.

    180

    He doesn't even know where they come from.

    181

    He doesn't want to give up but he's afraid to even touch the equipment much less pack it up.

    182

    He even offered to mind Bumpus for a few days after I requested a recommendation for a kennel.

    183

    He had been perfectly content to step back and let her bear the brunt of Giddon's anger, even knowing that he had arrived uninvited.

    184

    He hadn't even considered that she might not want to go.

    185

    He keeps saying we're harassing his client if we even ask questions.

    186

    He kicked himself mentally for not thinking before he made any sort of pact with the Watcher, even one that seemed so straightforward, until he met his target and realized she was an innocent caught in the crossfire.

    187

    He left the wallet with the body so no one knew the card and papers even existed, much less were stolen.

    188

    He looked even more distinguished than usual in his Spanish garb.

    189

    He looked pissed as it was, his unusual golden eyes swirling in a way not even remotely human.

    190

    He made it all sound so innocent - even noble.

    191

    He never even looked up.

    192

    He never wore a coat and she wondered if he even felt the cold west Texas wind.

    193

    He probably didn't even realize what he said.

    194

    He probably wasn't even awake enough to know who she was.

    195

    He pulled her into his body, even as she refused to look at him.

    196

    He quarreled with the other sailors, and even with the captain.

    197

    He respected the man who raised me, even when I rejected my natural father.

    198

    He taught that men ought to be kind even to their enemies.

    199

    He turned and looked down at Martha, who sank even lower into her seat.

    200

    He was always right, even when he told her to ask Damian something he knew very well.

    201

    He was certainly mysterious, even a little eccentric, but... what did she know about the business?

    202

    He was distant, even cool towards her.

    203

    He was even more striking than she remembered.

    204

    He was helping, even if he did so grudgingly.

    205

    He was protective of you before he even met you.

    206

    He was rarely sick, and even then it was hard to get him to go to bed.

    207

    He was willing to personally alert the local police and have them check out the vehicle even without clear cut identification.

    208

    He wasn't even being recognized for his abilities.

    209

    He won't even go down to eat.

    210

    He'd even made the coffee, albeit insipidly.

    211

    He'd heard it in her thoughts even if she didn't speak the words, and her ability to see through him as he did everyone else amazed him.

    212

    He'd settled in quite well and even purchased a car.

    213

    He'd sworn to protect her, even while pushing her away.

    214

    He'd trained her to use many of the weapons and encouraged her to visit the armory, even when she was young and too weak to lift a sword.

    215

    He's not even a Cade.

    216

    He's offered to pay for everything; even your flight down.

    217

    Her arms were crossed, and though she smiled at Lon, Sofia could see her level of comfort was equal to hers among the giants that towered even above a supermodel.

    218

    Her evolving power told her more than she wanted to know, even before she faced him.

    219

    Her face was streaked with tears, her eyes puffy even in sleep.

    220

    Her father was dangerous, even if she didn't yet know what he was trying to do.

    221

    Her gaze turned to the curtain, where not even a lost sunbeam could enter the room.

    222

    Her slap didn't even faze him.

    223

    Hippocrates has even left directions how we should cut our nails; that is, even with the ends of the fingers, neither shorter nor longer.

    224

    His attitude toward her did an about face so obvious that even Jonathan noticed.

    225

    His brother wasn't sure of anything or anyone else, even if he did match the faces in his thoughts with those around him.

    226

    His scent still lingered on her skin, even though she'd taken a shower earlier.

    227

    His tone was kind, even understanding, yet it tore a sob from deep in her lungs.

    228

    His words were comforting, even if they didn't resolve her concerns.

    229

    However, even if this problem were solved perfectly, it doesn't really end ignorance.

    230

    Howie has no recollection and his mother won't even discuss the subject.

    231

    Howie too, dressed for the occasion, even donning a tweed jacket complete with elbow patches.

    232

    Howie, ever hyper about the security of our endeavors, forbid our even discussing any interim results by phone, thereby leaving us in the dark.

    233

    I agreed with my wife but pointed out even though Bryce had tracked us down, I couldn't think of any other slip ups besides Julie's contest that would point to us.

    234

    I can't even eat real food, she said bitterly.

    235

    I can't even tell if he likes me half the time.

    236

    I can't even track them.

    237

    I can't go back to Gabriel, even if I do win.

    238

    I did not know that I was spelling a word or even that words existed; I was simply making my fingers go in monkey-like imitation.

    239

    I didn't even bother to ask.

    240

    I didn't even know it was possible.

    241

    I didn't even know you existed back then.

    242

    I didn't even know.

    243

    I don't even expect to let you live tonight.

    244

    I don't even know the outcome of your discussion with Julie.

    245

    I don't even know what I'm doing.

    246

    I don't even know when mine is.

    247

    I don't even remember his name.

    248

    I don't even think he realizes we're females.

    249

    I don't sleep with random men, especially those who aren't … you're not even human, are you?

    250

    I don't want you to lose anything, but you know I'd want to be with you even if we didn't have a dime to our name.

    251

    I enjoyed it last September until I became bored; I even had a little friend, as I recall.

    252

    I even got a book out of the library.

    253

    I even had time to spare for a second cup of coffee before boarding the Acela Express for my five-hour trip to the City of Brotherly Love.

    254

    I had no idea even how to begin.

    255

    I had to be sure I even wanted you here.

    256

    I had to make a choice without knowing what would happen or even if you would be there for me in the morning.

    257

    I have some horses you can ride and there are several creeks, ponds and even a small lake on the land.

    258

    I have to be even more careful.

    259

    I haven't even seen him since the funeral.

    260

    I just found out my father's running around killing people, and you expect me to trust a stranger when I don't even know if I can trust him anymore?

    261

    I kind of like him, even if he scares me.

    262

    I knew this conversation deserved more thought on my part but it felt good taking some action, even if it might prove misguided.

    263

    I knew you would take the responsibility, even if you didn't want the baby.

    264

    I know you leave the cap off the toothpaste and I even know when you...

    265

    I know you would stand beside me - maybe even in front of me with the intent of protecting me.

    266

    I like him, even if he scares me.

    267

    I like the idea of burying the supplies, but I don't think the Indians would be fooled if we buried everything – even if we could.

    268

    I like to watch them move and listen to them - I even like the way they smell.

    269

    I love a fight and an absolute victory even more, he replied.

    270

    I mean, you're in Hell maybe even being torn to pieces every day and you're being kind to me.

    271

    I spend less time waiting for Excel to do a recalculation of my formulas today than I did on my 386 in the 1990s, even though my spreadsheets are thousands of times more complex.

    272

    I thought he would jump at a chance to devote more time to experimentation even if it wasn't as broad as he wished.

    273

    I want to do what's right, too, but don't even know what that is.

    274

    I was thinking even someone who doesn't fear death, fears something else.

    275

    I wasn't even aware that I was staring at her... there.

    276

    I wasn't even doing sixty.

    277

    I won't even know where it is.

    278

    I would teach you how to draw pictures of sheep and horses, and even of men, said the stranger.

    279

    I wouldn't deny one's right to fulfill love, but doing so will have serious consequences on an untold number of lives, even those you're saving.

    280

    I wouldn't even take a stab at it.

    281

    I wouldn't even take a test to find out for sure.

    282

    I'd have noticed a seven-foot-tall vamp, and even if we didn't, the Other would've, Rourk said.

    283

    I'd known him for a few years, even if it was only in passing.

    284

    I'd not remembered that tidbit when Jackson first questioned me, but even now, I was reluctant to move his inquiry in that direction.

    285

    I'd think that would make you even more comfortable with the idea.

    286

    I'll accomplish this via a blind trust so you will remain unknown, even to me.

    287

    I'll even pay for luggage.

    288

    I'll find a way to protect you, even if it takes a while.

    289

    I'm as curious by nature as the next person, probably even more so, but to answer your question; no.

    290

    I'm different, Jule, even among you all.

    291

    I'm even sorrier to know that it didn't change you.

    292

    I'm pleased Martha trusted us enough to confide in us, even though now I have to take my hat in my hand and talk Jake Weller into spelunking after a skeleton.

    293

    I'm so distressed at her leaving, I don't even want to think about it.

    294

    I'm the guy with no past and I have this... earlier vision and it's not even my memory.

    295

    If he reports that our losses were great, it is not true; perhaps about four thousand, not more, and not even that; but even were they ten thousand, that's war!

    296

    If I didn't have a pregnant wife practically begging me, I wouldn't even be making this phone call.

    297

    If my mother happened to be near I crept into her arms, too miserable even to remember the cause of the tempest.

    298

    If you tell me every little thing you know or even suspect, I'll just drive away and let you walk down the lane to one of those farm houses we passed.

    299

    If you'd fired me, or even hit me...

    300

    Imagine a thousand new arts, none of which are even invented yet, each with a thousand new great masters.

    301

    In a few days, even the scars would heal.

    302

    In fact she had avoided - even pushed away those who might want to claim close friendship.

    303

    In fact, now I'm even more convinced I was right.

    304

    In her half-asleep despair, she was convinced no one but the Deans would even believe her.

    305

    In his absence, it was too heart wrenching to even look, knowing he was unavailable and unable to help.

    306

    In New Hampshire, I watched as another tried to mimic me and failed while no one even knew I was nearby.

    307

    In such a neighborhood as this, boards and shingles, lime and bricks, are cheaper and more easily obtained than suitable caves, or whole logs, or bark in sufficient quantities, or even well-tempered clay or flat stones.

    308

    Instead he was withdrawn and somber, even picking at his food.

    309

    It even appeared that they were friendly.

    310

    It even found its way into her writing.

    311

    It felt good to be off her feet, even if only momentarily and in such a manner.

    312

    It still makes me cry when I think of Annie, even after fifteen years.

    313

    It was a war his family had been fighting for millennia, one that wouldn't end even with his death.

    314

    It was either that or start from scratch but he's not even sure he's a catholic, much less committed to anything.

    315

    It was nice of you to help me out... even if it was grudgingly.

    316

    It was probably the first money, other than the air fares, Señor Medena had been able to spend on Alex - and even then he had to do it through Felipa.

    317

    It was several more minutes before she was able to take deep breaths – even longer before she was able to utter more than a strangled sound.

    318

    It was the first time she had even looked at it since the wreck.

    319

    It was the most comical shapeless thing, this improvised doll, with no nose, mouth, ears or eyes--nothing that even the imagination of a child could convert into a face.

    320

    It was too far to consider driving every day, even if she had a car.

    321

    It wasn't somewhere she'd ever venture, even in daylight.

    322

    It wouldn't be possible for even me to get up to that crack--or through it if I got there.

    323

    It's not even nine o'clock here.

    324

    Jonny was safe, even if she hadn't been able to wipe away all traces of the poison in his blood.

    325

    Jule, can the souls of those long dead still be freed, even if they're trapped in the ground?

    326

    Jule's brand on her soul was even more intense, enough so that she physically ached for him.

    327

    Just said he wanted it done soon because he wasn't taking any risks, even if she hadn't started transforming yet.

    328

    Just when I start to like you … you know, it's amazing even a man who's thousands of years old can act like a twelve-year-old.

    329

    Long ago she had learned to ignore the second glances, open stares, and sometimes even suggestive leers of men.

    330

    Loving him was no excuse, because even knowing he didn't love her, she still couldn't find the decency to leave.

    331

    Maria was a wee bird of a woman—probably a teenager, Hispanic, and even shorter than Cynthia, who barely topped five feet.

    332

    Martha wants me to have the antiques we searched for together all the cranberry glass, the Hobstar crystal, even the Tiffany lamp she so cherished.

    333

    Mary, on the other hand, was vocal about her opinion of Cade, even to the point of stating that he would be the greatest catch of the century - no doubt, even an exaggeration in Mary's mind.

    334

    Maybe even welcome it, provided there was absolute confidentiality.

    335

    Maybe he was here to see Giddon, and was distracted - or even worried that she would detect his source.

    336

    Maybe it resurrected memories that were unpleasant - even painful.

    337

    Maybe it was his delirium, but Jule thought the vamp looked larger than even Damian.

    338

    Maybe you could even talk him into going to the doctor - or at least calling the doctor.

    339

    Most cases were earlier tips as lately, the authorities were far more cautious with our information; often even denying a tip was involved when an arrest occurred.

    340

    Most guys who wear cool duds like these don't even shave.

    341

    My aunt never said it out loud or even admitted it, but she blamed her son.

    342

    My God, I can't even process that!

    343

    No one even knew where you were!

    344

    No, I didn't even know Claudette was standing there until you slapped me.

    345

    No. He's not even on parole.

    346

    No. I've never even hit anyone.

    347

    Nobody knows where the man is and even if he's been in there a long, long time, someone must care about him, or at least maybe did back then, when it happened.

    348

    Normally he would have asked if she was ready to go to bed, or even if she needed help.

    349

    Not even a path had existed here when she lived in the area five years ago.

    350

    Not even a year had passed since the stabbing, but he had been doing well.

    351

    Not even the ocean moved.

    352

    Not even the videos were playing.

    353

    Now even their relationship was beginning to suffer.

    354

    Now I won't even see Claire take her first step.

    355

    Now I would muddy the waters even more by contacting Daniel Brennan, another fact I planned to withhold from all but my wife.

    356

    Now she had matured into an even more beautiful woman.

    357

    Now there was life and light in his eyes, even if he wasn't quite the man Jule remembered.

    358

    Occasionally, he even lent a hand with the chores at Bird Song.

    359

    Of course I agreed though I had no idea how I'd accomplish the task and dreaded even trying.

    360

    Of course, even a greenhorn could follow the wagon tracks they would leave in the sand.

    361

    Of course, Howard had talked to Len – even given him instructions to the Giddon house.

    362

    Okay, it wasn't exactly true love but Howie's a nice guy and I would have let him do it even if he wasn't so generous.

    363

    On the contrary, I didn't even hear it.

    364

    One of them might have even been responsible for Annie's murder.

    365

    Paul, who appeared to be the elder brother, was a robust figure who never closed his mouth even while eating.

    366

    Pete laughed and even Davis had to smile.

    367

    Poor Martha lacked even a minimal paper trail on her short, disjointed life.

    368

    Possibly. Possibly they won't even be the same sex.

    369

    Pretenders stepped forward but with even less credentials than the recently departed Rupert Youngblood.

    370

    Princess Mary saw Dessalles' embarrassed and astonished look fixed on her father, noticed his silence, and was struck by the fact that her father had forgotten his son's letter on the drawing-room table; but she was not only afraid to speak of it and ask Dessalles the reason of his confusion and silence, but was afraid even to think about it.

    371

    Scraps from the table coaxed him out even during the daylight hours - but only when she stepped back into the house.

    372

    Search engines have done a fabulous job tackling this problem, even given the vast, vast, amounts of information added to the Internet every day.

    373

    Seeing him well rested and well dressed pissed her off even more.

    374

    Sexy, even when you want to cut my head off.

    375

    She belonged with him, even if she was second rung to his war against bad guys or even if he was never able to devote himself to any one woman at all.

    376

    She burrowed even deeper beneath his arm.

    377

    She couldn't abandon her babies to him, even if he was their father.

    378

    She couldn't help wondering about the two of them and why she felt suddenly jealous, even though Jenn could give Dusty something she wasn't willing to.

    379

    She didn't want to die; she wanted to be with him, even if only during the nights.

    380

    She even made my reservations and got me a discount.

    381

    She felt even colder.

    382

    She glanced at him, keeping her voice even.

    383

    She glimpsed Selyn and even herself in his story.

    384

    She gripped the hourglass, a symbol of her hope at leaving, even after learning that there was no real hope.

    385

    She hadn't said anything to anyone, not even Connie.

    386

    She jumped at his low, even voice, heart racing.

    387

    She laughed, a contagious sound, and he saw her effect even on Darian, who had relaxed and sat in a chair nearby.

    388

    She liked him, too, even though he was different from Damian and Dusty.

    389

    She may live an eternity, even if her soul comes to you eventually, Darkyn explained.

    390

    She might even begin to forgive her sinful daughter.

    391

    She must not have twisted one of the locks, even though she'd checked them all twice.

    392

    She radiated power that even humans could feel.

    393

    She swallowed hard, willing herself to remember that she was meant for Gabriel, even if it was Darkyn's name on her back.

    394

    She tried her voice once before she managed to speak, and even then the voice didn't sound like her own.

    395

    She was even different from them.

    396

    She was even more afraid of what he'd say, if he thought something was wrong with her like everyone else did.

    397

    She was home again, and it would be even better than she had imagined.

    398

    She wondered if it was because of the thought of her seducing someone else or because of her triumph at winning his affection, even if he beat her at every other thing.

    399

    She'd do anything for him, even if the devil took her soul!

    400

    She'd gotten the sizes right and even remembered matching socks and lounging clothes.

    401

    Similar to the bedroom, there was nothing on any of the flat surfaces, not even dust.

    402

    Since her dream, she'd heard him even when she was awake.

    403

    Something in his innocent boyish smile and the way he moved - so deliberate, even graceful.

    404

    Sometimes he even did it when there was a room full of people between them.

    405

    Sometimes it's even a surprise to me.

    406

    Still, the romancing was so much a part of him that it was as if he wasn't even Alex.

    407

    Talking to that policeman set him even more.

    408

    That car didn't look like much even when it was clean, but it was reliable.

    409

    That explains how you treated Katie, but what about Felipa and Alondra - and even Dulce?

    410

    That is, if he'd even speak with me.

    411

    That thought coupled with her nightmare made her even angrier at not being able to eat.

    412

    That's not even allowing time to park.

    413

    The air around him was even harder to breathe.

    414

    The apartment was lonely without Brandon, even with Julia and Rachel there.

    415

    The artillery and baggage wagons moved noiselessly through the deep dust that rose to the very hubs of the wheels, and the infantry sank ankle-deep in that soft, choking, hot dust that never cooled even at night.

    416

    The battle over humanity was about to get even more brutal.

    417

    The bed molded to her body with each movement, encouraging her to stay there even longer.

    418

    The best books are not read even by those who are called good readers.

    419

    The demon side of her recognized what they were, even if the human side didn't.

    420

    The Guardians knew that betrayal would be confronted by Dusty, and even those loyal to Damian feared him appearing unexpectedly at their door.

    421

    The halls narrowed and sloped, and he knew he'd been this way before even though he didn't remember when.

    422

    The illustrative strings and the orange stick representing the poles seemed so real that even to this day the mere mention of temperate zone suggests a series of twine circles; and I believe that if any one should set about it he could convince me that white bears actually climb the North Pole.

    423

    The king's enemies are even now advancing, and all are ready for the fight.

    424

    The other deities can't even do that.

    425

    The others, even Quinn, didn't disagree, but added, "And protect ourselves in doing so."

    426

    The phone woke me up, even though it wasn't very loud.

    427

    The police sometimes don't even hear the entire tip... just enough to lead them in the right direction, and find the person.

    428

    The poor kid didn't even have a real birthday, only the arbitrarily chosen date of January 1st.

    429

    The pot-bellied stove crackled with burning wood, and a light in the corner made the cottage feel even cozier.

    430

    The rest of us waited in nervous anticipation for her Friday arrival, not knowing if we'd even see her when she returned.

    431

    The sand only moved one way, even when upside down.

    432

    The second and even more singular fact was the absence of any inhabitant of this splendid place.

    433

    The system drops the last two digits of the number so it's never even received at the call center.

    434

    The tip covers only a few minutes, like she has to leave quickly, even though there must be more to be learned if she stayed.

    435

    The trouble is, my ranch has been a safe haven and even headquarters for the wolf population around here.

    436

    The walls were bare, the curtains drawn even during daylight, and the heavy wooden furniture solid and worn.

    437

    The wheels of the Conestoga wagons had been modified with wide rims to even the load on the sand.

    438

    The words sounded confusing, even to her.

    439

    The words sounded hollow, even to her ears, and she rose.

    440

    The young man's face paled even more, until he was as white as his bleached hair.

    441

    The young woman laughed even harder.

    442

    Then when she learned about Tessa's son, she was furious because he might inherit - even though I hadn't said anything to father.

    443

    Then, full of joy, the musician hastened to Corinth, not stopping even to change his dress.

    444

    There are four bedrooms, two more than they need and I've peeked in each, even testing the bed in one.

    445

    There are tests I could conduct that would give us direction and maybe some answers but he refuses to even discuss them.

    446

    There had been none since Claire, whose powers had been so weak, she couldn't even be blood bound.

    447

    There was an old treadle sewing machine with carved drawers and even a grandfathers' clock, stating the permanent time of three p.m.

    448

    There was no shadow or footprints even though I seemed to be standing on grass.

    449

    They could do their own cooking, even though it wouldn't be as nice.

    450

    They didn't even take anything, from what she heard.

    451

    They even agreed to take care of the animals while Alex and Carmen took their first vacation.

    452

    They were having so much fun that even Alondra broke down and joined them.

    453

    They would have disagreements - even fights, but they would forgive each other.

    454

    They'll follow up on the girl's story even though you and I know it's bogus.

    455

    This approach is even more flawed than the first.

    456

    This is phone is a throw away but I'm not even sure how good it is.

    457

    To an extent she had even been an accomplice.

    458

    Vera's remark was correct, as her remarks always were, but, like most of her observations, it made everyone feel uncomfortable, not only Sonya, Nicholas, and Natasha, but even the old countess, who--dreading this love affair which might hinder Nicholas from making a brilliant match-- blushed like a girl.

    459

    We can't even do an abduction that happens sometime over night but you don't know the hour.

    460

    We commenced another session without even bothering to go upstairs.

    461

    We could always go back to throw away phones but even those were suspect when our pursuer was a high level government agency.

    462

    We couldn't afford an apartment right now - even with the two of us.

    463

    We didn't even remain on the phone so sure we were that it wouldn't prove to be a crime.

    464

    We don't even know each other's identity.

    465

    We don't even know if John Luke Grasso was Annie Abbott's killer

    466

    We don't even know if the plants have anything to do with it.

    467

    We don't even know it was that fateful night, do we?

    468

    We don't even see them!

    469

    We haven't even been out for an hour yet.

    470

    We tried to duplicate our New Hampshire activities; even recording our efforts but fixing the settings proved to be hit and miss.

    471

    We're not even engaged.

    472

    We've changed the world together, for lots of people and now we can't even talk about what we did.

    473

    We've got patrols around-- " "Speck doesn't understand that if even a mosquito leaves the town, there's no way we can stop the spread!"

    474

    Were it not for the ranch, she might even feel happy for them.

    475

    What was even harder to accept was the fact she actually enjoyed his extreme mood changes.

    476

    When she glanced up at him, even his smile was reassuring.

    477

    Where are you even working?

    478

    While she couldn't shake the sense of doom that followed her from the visions, she felt more normal, less afraid, at the thought that she'd be rejoining the rest of humanity for a shopping trip with the girls, even if only for a morning.

    479

    Why, they're better than piglets--or even milk!

    480

    Why, you go giddy even on a staircase, exclaimed several voices.

    481

    With fifteen thousand men I held the enemy at bay for thirty-five hours and beat him; but he would not hold out even for fourteen hours.

    482

    Yeah, because I probably won't even remember you by then.

    483

    Yeah. Now that you caught her, it will be even harder to train her.

    484

    You always look neat and clean - even if you are a little out of style.

    485

    You better not tell anyone we even came in here.

    486

    You couldn't even say I love you.

    487

    You don't even know who we are?

    488

    You even said you were impressed with the hospital in Bartlesville.

    489

    You even touched it, maybe saw little green men.

    490

    You haven't even cried yet.

    491

    You made up your mind to deal with me, even if Gabriel was not part of your future.

    492

    You need to pretend you know what to do, even if you don't.

    493

    You think things over for a long time before you make decisions – even in small matters.

    494

    You too, probably," then he added, "even if you don't have real parents."

    495

    You will never have a chance with Gabriel, even when you win your deal.

    496

    You'd do anything to keep me silent - even marry me.

    497

    You're even getting hair in your ears.

    498

    You're the son of some whore I don't even remember!

    499

    Your father even offered you land if you would come down here to stay.

    500

    Yully cracked the door open, suspecting the man named Jule was there even before she flipped on the lights.
