Kindle Notes & Highlights
How can a moment feel like a last chance and a fresh start at the same time?
“Stop fucking around and lick it like a good boy. I want to come, then I need to see what you’re packing.”
A fresh start. A second chance. I wouldn’t be here without him. I’m endlessly grateful for this new beginning, and I intend to make the most of every opportunity.
Victim. I hate that fucking word. I swore to myself I’d never be a victim again. So I won’t. But they don’t know that yet.
“You said you weren’t sure where things stand between us, so now I’ll make it abundantly clear as often as possible.”
Decker wears his emotions on his sleeve. He’s passion and fire, joy and pain. Quick to anger. Fast to forgive.
Jo’s no threat to us. If anything, she’s battling deeper-rooted demons than all four of us combined.
So I’ll stay quiet. Keep the secrets I shouldn’t have uncovered in the first place. Reserve judgment for how she manages, for how she’s survived.
“You’re okay, Josephine. You can go back to hating me in the morning, but tonight, I’ve got you.”
There’s a bond between the four of us that’s always been unshakable. Until now. Until her.
I know what I like, and I’m not afraid to go after what I want. But an overwhelming sense of caution tempers my impulses when it comes to Joey.
“Um, hello?” She runs her fingers through my hair affectionately. “Haven’t you ever heard of enemies to lovers? It’s one of the most popular romance tropes.”
“I feel connected to you. You’re my safe space. The first one to be kind to me when I moved in. The first to view me as more than a liability. You’re the person I crave when the world feels like too much.”
