Here's mine from a book on my review list for March, Scarlet Lion by Elizabeth Chadwick:
Baldwin glanced towards de Braose's large striped pavilion, its interior luminous with lanterns and loud with the noise of hearty masculine camaraderie. "John's going to have to offer a lot to make Aymer of Angouleme sell his virtue."
"I had learned not to press him, either for travel or for stories; when he was ready, the next would come, but never, never when we were at home. I believe that he didn't want to bring that dark presence directly into our house."
