The Best Kind of Forever (Riverside Reapers #1)

by Celeste Briars

I don’t know what it is about this girl, but she gets all my wires crossed.

“You’re adorable when you blush, you know that?”

You either love too little and watch everything you’ve built slip through your fingers like sand in an hourglass, or you love too much, and that heap of sand weighs your chest down until you can’t breathe.

“You’re really beautiful, you know that?”

He’s been going through a weird grandma phase lately. He has this strange fascination with chamomile tea, gluten-free cookie recipes, and crocheting.

There’s a rustling coming from his hands, and that’s when I take in the bouquet of flowers he’s brought me.

“Someone as gorgeous as you agreeing to a date with me? You bet I’m clearing my schedule for the entire day to be with you.”

I called a connection I have in South Africa, and I asked him to send me a batch of the freshest nectarines he could find.

He called so eone across the world to get nectarines for her, cause they didn't have them where they live...wow.

“The truth always has a way of coming out. Are you going to be the one comforting her when it does, or will you be the one she keeps at an arm’s distance?”

I’m the least intimidating person in the tri-state area.

I resonate with this qoute so much.

I never used to get nervous around women before Aeris, but to this day, I still get butterflies when I’m around her.”

Gage removed Hayes from the conversation

Best part of the book so far, lol.

Everything Kit does is stupid, so maybe we just grew tired of always photographing him.

“Did you really get him a Peruvian Blue Fin?” I whisper to Gage. Gage’s chest flutters with a chuckle, and he shakes his head. “God, no. Those things don’t exist. Hayes is going to be feeding absolutely nothing for weeks before he catches on.”

I can’t imagine any other woman taking my last name. Or she can keep hers, or hyphenate, or fuck it, I’ll take her last name. Hayes Relera has a nice ring to it, don’t you think?
