Kindle Notes & Highlights
Staring up at the guy, Jesse pointed at me. “That’s my mommy. She doesn’t have one of those. She has ta-tas.” “What the fuck is happening?” One of three men standing in the shower room turned his body away from Jesse and looked over at me. “He’s going to lose an eye in here, sweetheart.”
he let the tailgate down, I was debating how to best jump up on the oversized truck when his hands wrapped around my waist. I gasped and clutched his arms as he lifted me onto the tailgate. “Andrew! You’re going to break something!” He sat next to me and spread out so his thigh pressed into mine. “I’m not going to dignify that with a response.”
“Maybe it was wrong for me to kiss you, but I waited too long when we were in high school and that taught me a big lesson. Fucking kiss Olive before some other jackass swoops in.”
He nodded, a warm smile stretching his lips. “I really am happy to see you, Olive. You look good.” “You always were so sweet. Delusional, too, I see.”
“I’ll be honest, Olive. Until you tell me that you aren’t interested, I’m going for more than friends. Seeing you again just reminded me of how beautiful you are and why I was interested in the first place.”
Jack moved closer to me and when he leaned in, I saw that his eyes were a pretty hazel. They looked brighter set against his short black hair and beard. “It’s completely up to you, but I could take him home with me. Andrew and Caleb are both there already. I’m picking up pizza and heading that way. It wouldn’t be a problem.” I squeezed my eyes shut and bit my lip hard to stop myself from crying. After inhaling and exhaling through my nose a few times, I opened my eyes and found Jack looking at me with concern marring his handsome face. “I grew up with a single mom, Olive. Shit’s hard. Let me

He smiled and gripped the back of my neck. “Take the help. Accept that I want to help. And then go to class before you fail out of college and set a terrible example for the kid.”
“She’s a year younger. Olive got all the sweet and Lydie got all the mean. I watched her try to take Taylor out with a bat once. And that was before everything blew up.”
I growled. “Olive. I’ve got my dick in my hand and I’m so close to being in heaven that I could cry. I don’t want to think about anyone else ever again. Are you okay with me being bare?” She bit her lip and nodded. “You fixed my water. I trust you.”
I moaned into his shoulder and held him tighter. “That was more than a little more.” “Are you okay?” Jack’s voice was strained and his body was tight against mine. I let out a strangled laugh and nodded. “I think I may be bad at this.” He took a handful of my hair and tugged my head back so he could look me in the eye. “Bullshit.” “Are there normally so many start and stops?” I watched his eyes narrow. “Do you want to hear the crude thoughts going through my head right now, Liv?” When I nodded, he let out a pained laugh. “I’m buried balls deep in the tightest pussy I’ve ever felt and I’m doing

he buried his face in my sex and I instantly believed every word he said. “Jack!” He licked me and growled. “You come more than once, Liv. Making you come is as good as coming myself. I’m not done until your toes are curling and you’re crying out my name like a fucking prayer. Understand?” “No one’s ever done… I’ve never…” “If you tell me that no one’s ever eaten this sweet pussy before, I’m going to lose my mind, Liv.”
We’ll lend a hand where we can. Jesse could even hang out with us at practice today. Coach would murder us for the smallest shit but he’s a softy for kids.” I squeezed her hand. “You don’t have to do anything alone.”
Olive shifted from foot to foot in front of me. I knew parts of her story from Andrew and I knew that with her face bare of makeup Olive looked young. With her eyes as wide with anxiety as they were, she had a baby face. A baby face with a six-year-old. It wasn’t hard to understand what the secretary was judging. It was bullshit. “You’re so young, honey. Just a child yourself.” The woman shook her head and sighed. “Babies having babies.” Olive stiffened against me and just as I was getting ready to say something, she spoke in a lowered voice that was woven with steel. “I’m twenty-one, honey.

“What’s that look on your face for?” I gripped her hips and groaned low enough that just she would hear me. “I can’t even say. What I’m thinking and feeling are ten different kinds of illegal considering where we’re standing and I want to be a professor one day, so I can’t be banned from being around kids.” She lifted her chin a bit more and pride shown in her eyes. “Thank you.” I licked my lips as I searched her face. “You’re a badass, Liv. But you need to turn around and walk before I do something we both can’t take back.”
“I’ve seen his shit posts through the group texts and every night this week he’s been drinking with a new random woman.” Andrew cracked his neck. “Meanwhile, Olive is going to class, working, raising Jesse, and doing everything else by herself.”
“Um… Sorry.” “You’re kidding, right? Did you just apologize for kissing my cheek? You could climb over here and kiss every part of me and I wouldn’t complain, sweetheart.”
He stopped at a red light and turned to face me. Instead of gloating about the god comment, he looked serious. “You’d be different. You’d absolutely wreck me, Olive.” My breath caught in my throat. After days of only hearing from the guys in text form, being in front of Caleb was almost gutting in how beautiful he was. His normally playful blue eyes were serious as they moved to my mouth. “I would never want to wreck you, Caleb.” I leaned towards him, drawn to him like a moth to flame. “Don’t let me be different.”
