Kindle Notes & Highlights
But I’ll say this—if anyone was going to change my mind about that, it would be Kelsey. She’s . . . hell, she’s all kinds of special.
Insta love boooo
“Can you two stop making out? Honestly, I came here to have dinner with you, not see you lick each other’s faces.” Lottie pauses and looks over her shoulder. “But he smells so good. Have you smelled him?” “I haven’t, because he’s not my boyfriend.”
Id kms nightmare sister fr
After we both put in an order for the meatloaf and mashed potatoes—I’m ignoring the fact that we ordered the same thing,
Uh i wouldnt this is an insane order at a fancy restaurant
“Fuck . . . yes.” Wait, hold on. What is happening? He shifts and clenches his fist as he wets his lips. “Yes, baby, right there . . . mmm, you feel so good.”
Never is she getting when harry met sallyed rn
“Are you really doing this? Are you really doing the scene from When Harry Met Sally?” I ask. “Fuck. That mouth of yours. Yes, suck me deep.”
Omg she is
Emory: It was his last year at Brentwood before he was drafted to play for the Chicago Bobbies. Knox: Technically, we met at a baseball party.
Ok im starting to think these are other books i havent read bc why have we mentioned whatevrr the chicago bobbies is multiple times and why are these backstories so smash
“And I like having a secret from Huxley. Makes me feel naughty. And if he ever finds out . . . ooh, I can’t wait for the punishment.”
I could not take my sister speaking to me like this fr
His eyes study me and I can feel myself wilt under the steely gaze of his green eyes. Just like Huxley’s, they’re hungry, unmistakably intense, and there’s nothing I can do to tear my eyes away as my core temperature spikes.
Can we stop comparing him to your sisters man
“You look . . . wow, you look stunning.” I catch Kelsey’s reaction to the compliment. A turned-down brow and an insecure look in her expression. What’s that about? Surely she knows she’s gorgeous.
This just actually made my chest hurt someone tell her shes beautiful rn
He should’ve lifted your hand and pressed the lightest of kisses to your knuckles, just so he could claim you in front of everyone around him. His eyes never should have strayed from yours. And when he lowered your hand, he should’ve taken one more step closer to you, leaned inches from your ear, and said how intoxicatingly beautiful you smelled.” My lungs have seized.
Omg JP a man of his words in every way
Genesis is beautiful and smart. But she has nothing, and I mean absolutely nothing, on Kelsey. And I wanted to show Kelsey that. But, Kelsey didn’t take it that way. No, she saw me as a man acting kind to have a chance at lifting her skirt. She saw me as nothing but a man with an agenda that involved the bedroom.
This is so sad to me bc of course she assumed that this sucksss
There’s no purpose behind it. Nothing. I don’t feel fulfilled when I go to work.
Womp womp poor billionaire
my fingers curl around the fabric of his shorts. I don’t really register that I have shorts in my hand. All I know is that I have a hold of something and it’s time to pull. That’s exactly what I do.
Is she ab to...pants him?
“I’ve been tea-bagged,” I cry out in horror, his penis still rubbing along my nostrils. “Let the fuck GO, KELSEY!”
WHAT IS HAPPENING
“Listen to me, Jonathan Patrick Cane—” “That’s not my name.” “I don’t care if your name is Junior Pooper, you’re going to listen to me.” Don’t laugh at Junior Pooper, do not laugh.
Stop junior pooper is so funny
“Apologize for what?” I ask. “For my presumption the night of the gala. What I said was out of line, JP.” She rests her hand on my arm. “I’m sorry. You were right, you were being nice and I took it the wrong way. I never should’ve made that kind of assumption about you. I’m sorry.”
To be clear she had every reason to assume he just wanted to fuck. He literally told her thats all hes down for. So this apology is sweet but v much overkill and hes certainly being drama
But going back to the playful banter, the “nagging,” as she put it, I’m not sure I can do that. I don’t think I have it within me to control myself. Messing around with her has been a turn-on.
So like even he admits to himself immediately after that he wants to fuck yet has the nerve to be offended when hes called out?
In the sitting area, there is a set of purple armchairs and a polka-dot loveseat surrounding a coffee table fish tank . . . with no fish in it, but rather, floating eyeglasses. See what I’m talking about? Weird-as-shit office.
I think it kinda fucks tbh
“Do you realize how old these windows are?” Regis asks. “These are casement windows, very rare. You can’t possibly replace them.” “But don’t you see? They can’t even swing all the way open due to building code, and because they’re original to the building, they don’t have any insulation, meaning they have zero energy efficiency.”
Im sorry but i see why regis hates her
“YES, it did!” I say as I reach out and poke his nipple the same way he poked mine. He doesn’t even flinch. So, I do it again. And again. And— He pokes my other nipple.
Once again what is going on
Like scalding lasers, his eyes fixate on me.
Scalding lasers is what we decided on
“Don’t let it get to your head. We’re barely a short-term companionship.” “I don’t know, you agreed to a second outing with me, so it seems like we’re committed to each other. If that doesn’t smell of short-term companionship, I don’t know what does.” “Christ, you’re incessantly annoying tonight.”
Wacko that this is somehow him trying to convince her to date
Fuck, she has that date set up with Dave Toney’s brother. I completely forgot about it. After the two nights we spent together, is she still going on that? Hell, a part of me thought that maybe she wouldn’t. That maybe she’d set him aside, give me a chance.
WHY WOULD SHE WHEN HE KEEPS SAYING THEYRE NOT EVEN FRIENDS
“I don’t expect you to understand this since you don’t dare date people. You only test-run them to make sure they’re good enough for your bed.” Ouch. And there it is, the way she truly sees me.
Thats basically what he said though
“They want two million.” “Jesus fuck,” I roar as I stand. “That’s fucking extortion.”
Who cares theyre all billionaires
She keeps her eyes trained on the happy couple. She doesn’t acknowledge me, doesn’t even flinch. I know she heard me because the smallest tear rolls down her cheek before she swipes it away.
I feel like shes still going to feel like shit either way bc shes just in a terrible headspace and shit keeps happening before she can even regulate her emotions this suckssss
there’s no way in hell Kelsey is going to want to talk to a guy who’s attempting to crack the code on pigeon communication so he can tell her how much he loves her. Newsflash—that’s not romantic.”
I mean...it kinda is
“Uh, the suit looks good.” I swallow. “You can pull it off. Do you, uh, do you have some sort of meeting or”—gulp—“a date?” “Nah.” He pushes off the doorjamb. “Just wanted to see your eyes eat me up again.” He winks and then takes off without another word. Wait . . . what?
This is cute but i feel bad he has to play it cool and charming to get her back when he didnt reallyyyy do anything all that wrong and deserves to be himself
