Kindle Notes & Highlights
I saw her the second her black cowboy boots crossed the threshold of my bar. She was Meadowlark’s sweetheart, a giant pain in the ass, and my best friend’s little sister.
She was wearing a skirt made out of some sort of shiny material; satin or silk, I think. It moved over her body like water. It made me wonder how she’d look wrapped up in bedsheets. But not just any bedsheets–my bedsheets.
“And your family is my family, Emmy, so even if you weren’t in my bar, you would be my business. You’ve always been my business, and you’ll always be my business.”
Be cool, Brooks. You didn’t do anything. You just eye-fucked his sister. That’s fine. Everything’s fine.
While Gus was a fierce protector, Wes was a dedicated caretaker.
Give me some Wes! I love a caretaker! 😍
“Hey, Emmy,” he called. I shot him some finger guns. I wish I were joking.
🤣🤣
“I thought I told you if you called me that I would shove a fence post down your throat,” Teddy said in a sickly sweet
When it came to Emmy, I was playing with fire, but I would happily walk into the flames for her.
“You know, if you don’t like the road you’re on, you can always pave a new one.”
I couldn’t believe the universe was so big, and I got placed on this random floating rock at the same time as Clementine Ryder.
“I’ve been people’s dirty little secret before, and I didn’t care because I didn’t care about them, but I care about you.”
“I appreciate that,” Hank said. “I don’t need to know about any dalliances having to do with Emmy and Luke Brooks.”
LOL
“She might not be ready, and that’s okay. Just keep showing up. Instead of telling her how you feel, keep showing her. Actions speak louder than words and all that shit.”
PREACH!!!! It’s not shit!
He greeted me with a hug. I loved my dad’s hugs. He didn’t half-ass them. Every time he hugged us, he did it like it was the last time.
I love hugs like that
My dad was a Ford man. Personally, I had my issues with the guy who created the forty-hour work week, but that was neither here nor there.
“Sugar, you deserve to go out on your own terms. Just because you got dusted doesn’t mean you’re done.”
I thought she was going to reprimand me for not telling her about everything. I should have. She was my best friend. I should have told her. I should have told everyone.
Ya think?!?!???
Luke wasn’t my secret. He was just mine.
🙄
How everyone didn’t know the man was hat over boots for you before the whole kissing incident is beyond me.
Its honestly beyond me too
“Is…is that a yes?” I asked. My voice was a low whisper.
There wasn't a question...
