Kindle Notes & Highlights
Maybe all this dread about coming home is silly. I mean, so my mom is dating Jett Powers, a man nine years younger than her who is supposed to be a genius and is to-die-for hot. Oh, and one other problem… I can’t stop fantasizing about him.
Maybe it’s because he’s forbidden and that excites me. Or maybe it’s because everything about this is wrong and dangerous, and for some reason, I like that.
He must have made a deal with the devil; no one can be this beautiful otherwise. My breath stutters as my eyes take in his tan skin, beautiful dark hair looking more so with that starched white shirt. He’s removed his tie and unbuttoned the first two buttons, allowing me to see his neck. With that black suit jacket, he just screams danger and power.
He is and always will be my dark obsession.
I reach up to stroke her lips. I didn’t plan this, but I started it, and now I’ll end it. Control. It’s what makes me, me. The more I have, the more powerful I feel.
Two emotions consume me: emptiness and rage. They alter depending on the time of day.
Do you dare? Oh, Mr. Powers, you have no idea.
She is my weakness, but I don’t have to be her downfall.
