S.C. Stephens is a New York Times and USA Today bestselling author who enjoys spending every free moment she has creating stories that are packed with emotion and heavy on romance.

Her debut novel, Thoughtless, an angst-filled love triangle charged with insurmountable passion and the unforgettable Kellan Kyle, took the literary world by storm. Amazed and surprised by the response to the release of Thoughtless in 2009, more stories were quick to follow. Stephens has been writing nonstop ever since.

In addition to writing, Stephens enjoys spending lazy afternoons in the sun reading fabulous novels, loading up her iPod with writer's block reducing music, heading out to the movies, and spending quality time with her friends and family. She curre

Quotes by S.C. Stephens  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“But, if for some reason we're not closer, if something has gotten between us, please, I'm begging you…don't give up on me. Stay. Stay with me. Work it out with me. Just don't leave me…please.”
S.C. Stephens, Effortless

“What if I don’t choose you, Kellan? What will you do?”
He looked away, a tear rolling down his cheek. “I’ll leave, Kiera. I’ll leave, and you and Denny can have your happily ever after.” He looked back at me. “You wouldn’t even need to tell him about me. Eventually, the two of you…” his voice broke and another tear fell on his cheek, “the two of you would get married, and have children, and have a great life.”
I fought back a sob. “And you? What happens to you in that scenario?”
“I…get by. And I miss you, every day,” he whispered.”
S.C. Stephens, Thoughtless

“I think in the end, you would have stayed with me, out of obligation...or maybe comfort. Maybe I was safe to you, and you needed to feel that. I know how scared you get of the unknown. To you...I must be kind of a security blanket. Do you see now, how that doesn't work for me? I don't want to be there, simply because the idea of me being gone is too...scary. I want to be someone's everything. I want fire and passion, and love that's returned, equally. I want to be someone's heart... Even if it means breaking my own.”
S.C. Stephens, Thoughtless

“I’d said it before and meant it: Alive or undead, the love of my life was a badass.”
Richelle Mead, Blood Promise

“There are three questions every woman should be able to answer yes to before they commit to a man. If you answer no to any of the three questions, run like hell."
[...]
"Does he treat you with respect at all times? That's the first question. The second question is, if he is the exact same person twenty years from now that he is today, would you still want to marry him? And finally, does he inspire to be a better person? You find someone you can answer yes to all three, then you've found a good man.”
Colleen Hoover, Slammed

“God Layken. How do you do it? she says. She blows her nose and grabs another tissue out of the box. How do I do what? I sniff as I continue to wipe the tears from my eyes. How do you not fall in love with him? The tears begin flowing just as quickly as they had ceased. I grab yet another tissue. I don't not fall in love with him. I don't not fall in love with him a lot!”
Colleen Hoover, Slammed

“He half rose from his seat and reached across another student’s desk to drop the mangled paper clip in front of Tommy.
“Look, dude,” he said, his voice low and earnest. “You want to ask me out, you man up and do it proper.”
Brigid Kemmerer, Storm

“You know what sucks about sorry? It's the worst word in the world. Because it always happens after you fuck up something good.”

I don't think any of us will ever be able to express the depth of our gratitude for the "Thoughtless" series. These covers are absolutely stunning. As is the content therein. ;)

Sheilalalalala Hi Ms. Stephens! I loved your thoughtless series although to be honest, I was a bit uncomfortable with the plot. (view spoiler) but, yep, it was a guilty pleasure for me. I was wondering though if by chance, you'll make a some sort of novella for Denny's POV in Thoughtless...well, it's not really by chance, eh? Yeah, yeah, maybe I'm part of the minority who's not that enamored with Kellan...but, maybe I just need some kind of peace of mind with what happened on the first book or something? I have a feeling that this sort of fan request has a slim to none probability...still, it's worth a try, I guess?

Thank you for making a wonderful series and I am looking forward to read your future books! :)


message 72: by Dianne

Dianne Hi Ms. Stephens! I just wanted to say I'm a big fan of yours. I also have a question about Conversion. Will it be exactly like the original or did you change some things? Just very curious! Thanks so much!

Dianne


Gretchen Thank you so much for adding me. I am totally immersed in Thoughtless right now... cannot put it down! :-)


Patricia Thanks for accepting me! I really love your books! :)


Marlaine Witbooi Thank you for accepting my friend request. Thoughtless is by far my favourite series for 2013...i really hope to see a book of Anna and Griffin...


message 68: by Dianne

Dianne Thank you for being my friend. Thoughtless has to be my absolute favorite book ever. You are such an amazing author!


Mariℓina Thank you for accepting my invite. I finished Thoughtless this morning, haven't slept all night reading it, not even a little bit, but i loved every second.


Sheyenne Thanks for accepting my friendvite. Reckless was perfect it was the best ending to the series!!!!


Veronica Omg Omg Omg Reckless the best book ever. So many emotions and feelings. It was happy, and so funny smh griffin my my my that griffin lol and i even cried. I just loved every bit of it!


message 64: by Shamika

Shamika Thank you for the biggest book hangover EVER! Finished Reckless a few days ago and I still have not been able to moved on. This series is just perfection.


message 63: by Colette (last edited Mar 09, 2013 05:25AM)

Colette ...you, my dear new friend, just about drove me insane with Thoughtless. I know I am behind the curve, everyone is reading Reckless but I have just started reading this series. Denny and Kellan were so well written. I was a "wreck" most of the book, which for me is the sign of a masterful writer. It takes a talented writer to pull me in so deeply that reality and fiction started to blurr. The empathy I felt toward these two men felt so real. Entertainment at its finest....thank you, I am looking forward to devouring Effortless and Reckless.


Elizabeth Just finished Reckless and I have to say you are truly a master. The whole series is just so beautifully done. Thank you for sharing.


message 61: by Cosima

Cosima Reckless was the perfect end to an absolutely breathtaking story. Thanks!
Can't wait for more books.


Deanna❤Pink Lady❤️ Reckless was PERFECT!!!!! Thanks for making everything, everybody great!! I must tell you that the way that you wrote Kellan's love for Kiera was exquisite. You could really feel it deep in your soul and it was such a joy to read. I loved how you let Kiera grow through all 3 books into a strong, independent woman who could finally accept that she was worthy of Kellan's love. You have written a trilogy that will be forever remembered as a wonderful love story with a freaking fabulous HEA!!!!!

PS-ALL the other character are wonderful as well!!!!!!
