Kindle Notes & Highlights
Those sentence were all palindromes—the same backward as forward. Jameson. Freaking. Hawthorne. I of all people should have seen it.
Maybe it was the fact that Jameson Hawthorne had just slipped a ring onto one of my fingers. Or maybe it was the knowledge, heavy in the air between us, that in our lifetimes, this probably wouldn’t be the only ring that Jameson gave me.
“It’s funny,” he says. “What is?” “The old man had a way of planning for everything.” Nash starts walking in the direction I indicated. “But I’m bettin’ he didn’t plan on you.”
“Only you four could turn gift-giving into a competition.” “I told you two,” Jameson said, looking directly at me, “Christmas at Hawthorne House is a contact sport.”
“You’re perfect,” I said, my voice a little rough. “You know that?” “I think you might be confusing me with someone else,” Jameson quipped. I gave him a look. “Never.”
The situation was thus: Nash on the dance floor. Cowboy hat? Check. Leather pants? Check. Ass? Shaking.
