Kindle Notes & Highlights
To all the girls that have been through some shit and want that soft kind of love, the one that feels like a cozy blanket on a fall night, this is for you.
The man’s head snaps up, and cinnamon-tinted eyes take me in from behind his glasses. His dark brown eyebrows furrow as he stands and removes his glasses. Holy hell. My mouth dries out while another place gets a different memo. He’s tall, at least 6’4, and let’s just say he looks like he’s well-acquainted with the weights at the gym. His ball cap sits atop brown hair that curls slightly at the ends. I get the sudden urge to run my hands through it. No, dammit.
I’m a firm believer that we can have different kinds of love in life.
She’s slowly starting to become a code I want to crack. A series of numbers out of order that I want to put back in their proper place to function again.
“Yup. Your arrogance is well-deserved, Fields. What a smart cookie you are.”
You know when you hear an old favorite song and it fills you with a warm, happy feeling at the familiar tune? Yeah, that’s what listening to her laugh did to me, and despite it being new, it feels like my heart knows its tune already. I’m in trouble.
Aurora has been living in my head rent-free all week.
“Believing that we have control over everything in our lives.”
I want to take care of Aurora Vallacourt, and once I start, there’s no stopping.
No, no, no. This is not good. He can’t do this to my poor, secretly hopeless romantic heart. This man. This sweet, kind, caring man. He remembered my favorite food combination and got me a heated stuffed cupcake, which I told him is what my dad calls me. What a goddamn sweetheart.
He’s making my girl uncomfortable for whatever reason, and to hell if I’m going to let it continue.
Little does she know I’ve imagined her as mine more times than I’d like to admit.
But she’s a distraction I’m starting to crave. To need.
It is impossible to deny her anything, especially when it’s something I want to give her.
when you want something bad enough, nothing will stand in your way.
“You’ve been living rent-free in my head since the day we met.”
“Sometimes, the dreams we’re chasing aren’t all we’re meant to be.”
