Kindle Notes & Highlights
This book is dedicated to Nero, the beautiful bastard who started it all. I love your unhinged ass.
I love this!
“Dammit, Butterfly.”
Ok now thats a pet name!
My neglected libido tumbled out of hibernation like a hungry bear rolling out of her cave, dried leaves shaking off with each roll, until she splashed headfirst into a lake that smelled of man.
Leaning down, I carefully stick the newest Post-it on top of the last one, adding it to my little stack of yellow paper squares. One for every delivery from the girl next door.
On one side of the room, the gray couch faces a subpar TV mounted above a fireplace she never turns on because someone—me—keeps disabling the gas line because someone—her—has left it on unattended one too many times.
Because if Cassandra woke up tomorrow to a bowl of rotten produce, she would feel sad. She’d probably frown. Potentially pout. And I can’t be the cause of that.
Aww so sweet
Slowly, I reach down and unlace my boots, then pull them off one at a time. Then I lift my feet onto the bed.
No dude!!!
The stomachache I got from those mushy-ass cookies kept me up half the night.
😂🤣😂
“Christ, Hans. You can’t just Goldilocks this girl and expect a happily ever after.”
My vision tints an ugly shade of green, and I storm out of my house, book in hand.
What are you going to do
“What happens on three?”
Yeah, what happens? We want to know
“Something you won’t like, Girl. Now answer me.” I don’t believe him. I think I will like it.
I know we’ll like it!
Our teeth click together when we both open our mouths wider.
Ewwww it was going so well
Hans, my neighbor, stealer of breath and nudie books, pulls out of his driveway.
You don’t bring knives to a gunfight without a little planning.
Plus—I grin—shooting a man and having him not react is kind of scary.
Which is good, because if I witnessed her getting into the back of a stranger’s car, I’d have my sniper rifle out and aimed at the back of the driver’s head before you could say psychotic.
“Watch the attitude, Girl.” I give the command quietly, but there’s no mistaking my tone.
Cassandra stares up at me and whispers, “Help.” “But you’re doing such a good job,” I whisper back.
😂🤣😅
“I’ve never punched a geriatric, but I’m not strictly against it.”
“When are you gonna learn that there are consequences for being a brat?” His voice on my neck causes my skin to prickle. “Hopefully right now.”
Cassandra stops and looks back through the dark at me. “Night, Grizzly Bear.” Not able to stop myself, I let out a low growl.
The bark of a laugh that just came out of my body!
“You’re like Batman,”
Nero
YESSSSS!!!!!!! Finally!!!
“My Grizzly Bear.” I hug his arm. “My man.” I melt into his body. “My stalker.” I smile.
Not the bear!
“That was a selling feature. But my plan was to actually buy all three houses on the street and live in undisturbed peace. But then the old lady across the street kicked the bucket while I was out of the country killing some people, and when I came home, a pretty little distraction had bought the house before I even knew what happened.”
Cassandra gasps. “Did you just blow up my house?”
I wonder if she’s gonna be mad at me for burning down her house. I hate the idea of her being mad at me.
Nero tucks the body bag under his arm. “I’ve seen enough.”
He’s going to steal your body bag!
“I’m a big fan of your wife. She’s kickass.”
Sharp shooter
She just fucking scolded the ghost man for throwing a fit over some cookies.
Best part of the entire book!!
“I’m proud of you for sharing your cookies tonight.”
Nero claims it’s just because Hans is our neighbor, so it’s convenient to see him, but really, those two are a pair of peas in an unhinged pod.
So now the two men stand together, under an arch of beautiful flowers, with Hans in his three-piece dark gray suit with black shirt and tie, and Nero in his black robe with a sword strapped to his back.
Perfection!!!
“Aspen, my love.” Rob looks up at his woman. “Will you do me the honor of telling your terrifying brother that we’re already married?”
Aaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhuh!!!!!!!!
