Kindle Notes & Highlights
About the heroine: There is a chance that you might think she’s a bit naïve or weak, but then again, who starts out as a badass? Badass women are a product of growth, and I am going to put her through hell, and you get to watch her come up swinging every time I knock her on her ass. That’s just how I do things.

“I’m a woman, Knox. We only need a few minutes to rain hell down upon men.
