Kindle Notes & Highlights
I could never give her up. She’s the piece of my soul that I’ve always been missing. The only thing that brings me comfort and rest.
The title of mom or dad doesn’t make someone perfect or worthy of our love, their actions do.
My chest hitches as images of Colton’s sun-drenched face tear through my memory. He was mine for the season, but never mine to keep. My summer sparrow.
“I’m so sorry I hurt you. You are the best thing that ever happened to me,” he confesses. “I’m still so in love with you that sometimes I think my bones will break beneath the weight of it.”
“I’ll love you until the day I die, Rylee Adder. But I’ll let you go, if that’s what you need.”
“First off, this isn’t fighting, Tiger. If anything, it’s foreplay. Trust me, you’ll know when we’re fighting. Second, the only thing I have to get off my chest is how much I’ve fucking missed you.”
“Keep the car. What I’m pissed about is the missing ass-shaped dent in the middle of that hood. Let me know when you’re ready to put it back.”
She’s so fucking beautiful it hurts.
“You guys are like magnets. Half of the time, you’re repelling one another so violently I feel like I should run for cover. The other half, I’m terrified I’ll be crushed between the force of your attraction.”
“You’re right. I am an asshole, but do you want to know what I’m not? I’m not your goddamn fuck buddy. No strings, no emotion, no commitment? Are you fucking kidding me? You are mine. I get all of you, whatever that looks like. Messy. Whole. Perfect. Broken. I don’t give a fuck. I want it all, and I’ll settle for nothing less.”
“I knew you still loved me.” My heart thuds. “I never stopped.”
“Colton.” I stare up into the depths of his soul. “I’ve already forgiven you.” “Thank fuck, because this is it for me. You are it for me.” A deep hum emanates from his chest that vibrates low in my stomach. “Nothing ever comes between us again.”
“I have never, will never, love anything as much as I love you,”
“You are the only home I need. If I have you, that’s all that matters.”
