Kindle Notes & Highlights

“Day or night. If you need me, I’m there. No questions asked. I’m always going to protect you. Until the end of time.”
“You’ve changed me too, honeysuckle. You’ve made me understand what it feels like to be found. Seen. Heard. Valued. You make me believe in myself in a way I’ve never had before. You make me feel like I’m worth something.”
“A honeysuckle and her heathen.”
“You’re not unemployed. You’re a teacher, and it’s summer break. You’re not homeless. I’m your home.” He leans into my ear. “And you’re not engaged to that man. The next time you want to refer to yourself as engaged, you let me know, because the only person you’re marrying in this life is me.”

“You’re my once-in-a-lifetime kind of love, Darby.”
“For you to plant a garden in. For us to build a path down to our beach with, so you can watch me surf, and I can watch you suck my dick with the ocean in the background.” Her lips twitch at that, and I smile brighter. “I bought a house for you to line with books and flowers and to fill with babies and laughter and happiness. To give you the home you’ve always deserved and never got to have.”
