Ruthless Creatures (Queens & Monsters, #1)

by J.T. Geissinger

Love is poison. A sweet poison, yes, but it will kill you all the same. —GEORGE R. R. MARTIN

“Sorry, princess. If you’re looking for a knight in shining armor, you’re looking in the wrong fucking place.”

“Interrupt me again and I’ll take you over my knee right here and spank that perfect ass of yours until you’re screaming.”

“I haven’t stopped thinking about you since the day we met. I’m not someone who obsesses over things, but I’ve obsessed over you.

Because the truth is always so much harder than making up something pretty. I’d rather have the ugly truth than a beautiful lie.

“So either don’t tell me your secrets or don’t make me fall in love with you. Because once I fall in, even death can’t make me fall out.”

“That’s where people go when they need to feel better: home.” “But your home is in New York.” “Home can be a person, too. That’s what you are for me.”
