Kindle Notes & Highlights
“Yes. I'm four years old.” She pointed at the two older boys. “That's Marcus and Mitchell, but everyone calls them Mac and Mitch, they're seventeen and fifteen.” I nodded at them and smiled. “That's my mom, she's forty and that's my dad, he's just old.” I laughed at her labeling Brick as too old to even have an age, and I wasn't the only one. He rolled his eyes. “I'm fifty-one,” he said. “I have an age, baby girl. I'm not just old.”
Eliza always stole the show - she was one of the highlights in this book.

It wasn't a big thing. I just didn't seem to be able to shut up when I drank. And I always had the worst anxiety the day after, regretting pretty much every single word I'd said the night before, which, due to me not shutting up, meant quite a few words and conversations to obsess about.
hello sister - except she's better, cause even with anxiety inducing effects, I can't help myself from a good glass of wine - or 2
“I've heard they have this thing called e-readers these days.” “I know that. I've never left the planet.”
“I needed to feel wanted, feel anything, and let’s be honest, you’re a pretty safe bet when it comes to getting some.” He stared at her. Somewhere deep inside he knew that this was just female bullshit and about getting even, making him hurt as well, but that insight didn’t really reach his brain at the moment and he was so pissed he didn’t even know what to say. Edie didn’t shut up, though. “So no hard feelings about you fucking me and taking advantage of me. It was a mutual thing. We both got what we needed.”
I do like it when women gaslight right back. My favourite romantic thing.
Bull had somewhat of a problem with girls who strayed. To say the least.
Fucking hypocrite- to say the least
“Hell yeah,” Bull laughed. “Bear told me he caught him renting some chick flicks and buying chocolate a while back, before Vasco. Apparently she was on the rag, and he was buying her stuff to go and hang with her. Teased him about it and he just laughed.” “He what?”
This bare minimum stuff - EVERYONE mentioned it at some point in the book. And I don’t get it. I don’t. That’s not proof of devotion. That’s nothing. That’s a $20 bill and 2/3 hours of his time after which he didn't hang out with her for another week or two. That quite literally below bare minimum and ALL the men in this book keep talking about it like its the bravest thing a guy can do. I'm exhausted to read this shit.
If Dawg was as smart as Bull knew he could be, he'd see that that's the kind of woman you kept your dick in your pants for.
Sooooo… Bull believes in monogamy but not for certain women. Some are only good to raise his kids and be meek, obedient housewives. Like that beautiful, sweet Latina he married. Apparently she's not worth being loyal to. Gosh I wanna strangle this guy.
Although the subject most often discussed regarding her and that lockdown was that she’d fucked up the chicken salad. What she had a problem with on occasion was how women were treated in general, and the drama between the women.
at least he knew that much.
“Did we just start a fuck war?” he asked as he laid her down on her back. “I think so.” “We're so gonna win,” he mumbled against her lips. “We've got mad fuck skills.”
