For Always (Now & Always Duet #2)

by Amanda Bentley

This one's for the badasses who've ever felt like they needed someone. How great did it feel when you realized you didn't?

“Can you… um—” He looks so flustered, his eyes becoming more alert. “Will you stay with me tonight?”

But how do you forget someone that lit you up from the inside?

But I am big. I deserve to take up space. I don’t need anyone or anything. I am free.

“In the darkness, seek the stars. You may not see them, but they are always there for you.”

“The best kind of ruin. I’d let you ruin me over and over and over again.”

I’m the guy that forces you to dig deep inside yourself and embrace the power already stowed in you. Be the fire, princess. Not the ash.
