Kindle Notes & Highlights
The right person will never try to break your wings, they will help you spread them.
I’m so right. It gives me an ace up my sleeve, because I’m one hundred percent sure Layla doesn’t have a clue about her brother and her best friend. My body warms up, and I almost grin from satisfaction.
She’s stunning. Wow, wow, wow. I’m definitely off my game. She’s stunning? What the fuck am I thinking?
Layla is right: he has very bad taste when it comes to women.
Colton Thompson doesn’t do relationships because he’s too fucked up to be present in one.
“Do you really think I’m stupid?” “I barely know you,” she murmurs, taking another step down, “but something tells me that yes, you’re stupid.”
Family won’t fuck me all night, making me come over and over and over. I clench my thighs together, perfectly aware how wet I am just from the memories. Fucking Drake and his miraculous tongue.
“Did you sleep well?” His eyes go wide, and a blush creeps onto his cheeks. Isn’t he the cutest? “Yeah, as soon as you left my bed, I finally got to sleep comfortably.”
“Hmm, the thought didn’t even cross my mind,” Clay mumbles. “You?” “Me either.” Hell no, I’m not letting slip what I know already. I’ll use it later for my own benefit.
If she were mine, I’d never share her.
and I don’t know how to explain what I see. But I don’t know how to explain my own feelings, so that is no surprise.
“I just kicked her out,” I argue, but he shakes his head. “It’s amusing that you still have no idea how much power you have around here.”
I don’t know what surprises me the most: Clay’s invitation, or his fixation on this girl. Oh, look who’s talking, Mr. Boner in His Jeans.
One second, he acts like he cares; the next second, he’s insulting me.
So stunning and so infuriating at the same time. I wanted to twirl her around and kiss her just as much as I wanted to spank her for her behavior.
“If you meet a girl you like, one who causes your heartbeat to speed up, who is constantly on your mind, day and night; one who stirs such strong emotions within you that it is hard to control yourself. If you meet a girl like that, promise me you will bring her here and introduce her to me.”
I do love hockey…but I hate the ice and all the memories it brings.
“He wants what?” To fuck me like there’s no tomorrow.
Does she think I’m such an ass that I can’t have feelings like a normal person? Shit. I’m a fucking idiot.
For some reason, Colton Thompson likes me, and now he’s jealous. This leads to another realization: he thinks Drake and I are hooking up behind Layla’s back. The third one? I’m a messed-up idiot who likes the guy I’m not supposed to like at all, and he’s not the one I’m leaving this party with.
I’m not her boyfriend. I’m the guy she hates. But she called me Colt, and I finally said her name aloud.
She’s not mine, but all I want is to have her. Is it jealousy I feel? If it is, it fucking sucks. I’ve never felt this way about anyone.
otherwise. I just need someone. Someone who can make me laugh, make me want to protect them, make me feel…dammit.
I’m the King of Stupidity, nothing less.
Drake laughs, running a palm over his face. “You know I fucked Ava? Well, genius, I saw you dance with her. Throwing a tantrum just because the girl you want chose another guy?”
“I don’t. The only reason I did what I did is because I hate liars.” “And yet you lie,”
Calling someone by their name means becoming familiar. Becoming closer. And you’re dead-set on being distant.”
She’s so fine my brain stops functioning. I want her, here and now.
I just had the best kiss of my life. I’ve never felt—
Sometimes, having a close relationship with your family is a curse. In my case, at least.
jacket. I thought she got rid of it, so seeing it on her is overwhelming. In the best possible way.
“Besides, it looks good on me.” “It does.” Our eyes lock, and my body warms up. The air in the kitchen becomes charged.
“I don’t want to be another random hookup for you.” She could never be a hookup. Absolutely out of the question.
Enemies make the best lovers, Colt. –A
She’s fucking everywhere and nowhere at the same time. She’s definitely not within my reach.
I’m nothing more than a tangle of anger, hate, and bitterness. Do I think anyone will want to be close to me if they see the real me? I’m
This girl is a fucking hurricane, and I’m right in the middle of it. In all honesty, I wouldn’t want to be anywhere else.
What am I planning to do? Fuck Ava into oblivion if I can finally corner her somewhere on campus.
“He can always try,” I hiss, balling my fists and clenching my jaw. If that fucker touches her, I’ll destroy him.
I want to tell her that she’s the only one who has this effect on me, the only one who gets me off like I did when I was younger, a horny teen.
No matter how much I try not to look, it’s useless. She’s the only girl I see in this fucking place. The only one.
Mental note to self: Colton Thompson, you’re a fucking idiot.
What’s so special about this guy? He’s the only one who affects me like this. The only one who gets under my skin with such ease it scares me to death. The only one whose kisses keep me awake at night.
He’s so stunning I get tingles all over my skin just looking at him.
Miscommunication is a bitch, and it’s our fault we let it happen.
For the first time in my twenty-one years of life, I feel like a lost puppy. A very lost and hopeless puppy.
The consequences of my actions will haunt me forever, and I don’t have it in me to lie ever again. It’s not worth it.”
Except for one thing: I refuse to accept her not being in my life.
I just gave his ego a huge boost. As if it wasn’t big enough already.
I wonder if I’ll be able to escape this without falling in love with him.
