Review for Hide & Seek by H.D. Carlton

Quotes by Emily Colin  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“My mom always told me that when you’re doing what you’re supposed to do, the universe will help you out. It may throw you a few curveballs, but they’re all in the name of a good cause. Once you leave your path behind, that’s when you start swimming upstream. It’s good advice.”
Emily Colin, The Memory Thief

“You don't really love me, or you never would have treated me like you did. You were just afraid of letting me go. There’s a difference, and no one knows that better than I do. We were both afraid of moving on, me of what I really wanted. It brought us together, it bound us, but no longer. I am done with making decisions based on fear. [Nicholas to Grace]”
Emily Colin, The Memory Thief

“Holy denial, Batman. I feel this way because I love her. I”
Emily Colin, The Memory Thief
