Kindle Notes & Highlights
I want something. I want to be needed. Appreciated. Loved. No, I don’t just want it. I fucking crave it.
If you’ve ever wondered if thigh tattoos are hot, the answer is yes. So. Fucking. Hot.
“Don’t worry.” He nudges my shoulder with his. “I won’t replace you.” I giggle. “Promise?” “Promise.” His gaze moves over me in a slow sweep that heats my insides. “’Cause you’re irreplaceable, Rosie, aren’t you?”
“You know, Rosie. I wasn’t having the best day when I ran into you. Or rather, when my dog tackled you to the ground. Maybe he knew what he was doing, though. Because my day got a hundred times better after you fell into it.”
“You’re trouble, aren’t you?” That t-word sparks something inside me, something lost and broken, and I cling to Adam as he squeezes me for a moment that ends too soon. He gives Piglet’s chin a scratch, and with one last look in my direction, he winks at me. “See ya around, trouble.”
“And maybe me too,” I admit. “I, um…I liked walking with you. And talking with you. And eating you. No, fuck.” I squeeze my eyes shut and shake my head. “Fuck, no, that’s not what I—eating with you. Your sandwiches. Not your…” I gesture at her crotch. Holy fuck, I gestured at her fucking crotch. I’m turning into Garrett.
I need a motherfucking girls’ night.
ADAM’S ROAD TO HOPE: ONE MAN’S JOURNEY TO PUSSY PALACE
“Hidden…identity…” She underlines it three times. “I love this trope.”
“He told me Oprah owned the same mattress! How was I supposed to say no?”
“Is this necessary? It’s like I’m listening to porn with my best friends’ wives. You guys are like my sisters. I feel—”
“We’re never good enough for the wrong people. But you’re just right for us, and we love everything about you.
The people who are meant to be in my life will find me.”
“Got it. Two bottles of wine, an ice cream cone, and date number two.” He grins then, wide and full of mischief as his gaze drops to my legs. His hand lands on my knee, sliding along my bare skin, where he nabs the hem of my dress from where it’s ridden up my thigh. Gently, he shifts it back into place, eyes rising to meet mine, a fire blazing so hot, it singes my skin. “I can’t wait to unravel you.”
She has so much love to give, and someone stole that light from her. I love being part of the reason she finds it again.”
“He deserves to be surrounded by people who want to be in his life, no matter how challenging the days can be.”
The people who are going to choose you will love all your pieces, not just some of them.”
“I’d kiss every fucking inch of this body, worship it all, make it my only religion if you’d only let me.”
Luxury is being surrounded by all the love you need to walk through life. It’s having someone to laugh with on the good days, and arms to hold you up on the bad ones.
“I prioritize myself and my family, and I make decisions with my well-being at the core.”
“But sometimes those people show you exactly how to love the broken bits of yourself. To them, you’re not broken at all.”
“You’re right, Rosie. I should have more shirts made for us. One for every day of the week. Great idea, thanks.”
She unravels every string, and when she puts me back together again, I’m better than I was before. Whole, finally, and I don’t think I’ve ever been whole.
You didn’t throw my whole world off balance. You centered it. It was like you were my gravity, and every moment I was with you, everything settled into place. My fears, my insecurities, my hopes, and my dreams. I was at peace with everything, as long as you were by my side.”
“With you, I found my gravity. That’s worth so much more than my chaos.”
