Kindle Notes & Highlights
“I swear on my tits, if you sit down next to me, I’ll break every one of your fingers, and I’ll do it so fucking slowly.”
“I’m gonna fuck you the way a bride deserves to be fucked on her honeymoon, and when I’m done, you’re going to thank me and ask for more.” He whips his belt free from his shorts. “Got it?” I swallow. “Got it.” “Good girl. Now take off those panties and show me how badly your pussy wants my cock, honey.”
“Look at me,” I demand, but she shakes her head. “Lennon.” “You’re gonna fall in love with me.” I snort a laugh, my grip on her hips tightening. “Okay.” “It’s true. I saw it in your eyes. You’re an open book.”
Lennon collapses, breathless and boneless, on top of me. “A-plus for effort,” she wheezes, and I bark a laugh.

That in a single day he’s done more for me, cared more for me, than my fiancé ever did.
I’m not asking him to change his whole life. I’m asking him to stop swinging Magic Mike and his two backup dancers in my goddamn face first thing in the morning.
Jaxon wrapped my hair before bed.
But I don’t want to fall alone. I want her to fall with me.
