Too Fast (Boys of Lake Chapel #2)

“They fucked with the wrong girl,” Kendrick announces, crossing his massive arms over his chest as he homes in on me.

KENDRICK finally 😩

“I’ll always keep you safe,” he grinds out, his persistence somehow even more intense. “Now that I know what’s at stake, no one is getting to you. I meant what I said, Jo. You’re mine. I’m never letting you go.”

“It was easier to hate you than to admit I wanted you, too. You’ve been in my head since the moment we met, Jojo. I’m done fighting it. I know the deal. I don’t know the details yet, but I want in, too.”

This came out of nowhere but this whole chapter has been so 🥺

“I won’t hold you captive, Josephine. But I’ll do everything in my power to make you stay.”

“What’s there to like about sand, anyway? It gets everywhere. It clings to all the wrong places. You find it for days after leaving the beach, even after multiple showers. Sand is the glitter of the sea.”

“Sand is the glitter of the sea” yes

“Not yet. I want to hold you just a little longer. This is happiness, Josephine. This is what it’s all for. I want to remember this moment with you in my arms for as long as I live.”
