Kindle Notes & Highlights
“Your mouth must be dry from all the panting.”
“My love isn’t fickle, Dahlia. I’m not afraid to fight for you. For us. Every second of every day, if that’s what it takes. I’m not afraid of imperfection or reality. I’m not afraid of your broken pieces.” He runs his thumb along my cheek. “I’m broken too, but together, we can be whole.” Everett smiles, emotion glistening behind his amber eyes. “You’re everything I’ve been searching for my entire life and never believed I’d find. I know you think you’re not worth fighting for, baby, but just give me the chance to show you you're wrong.”
“Then, I had Lou, and I realized what the true value of love is, how what I thought I’d experienced before hardly scratched the surface of the depths I feel for her. All she simply had to do was exist, and she already received everything I had left to give.”
“You’re my wildflower.” He lets out a breathless laugh. “You blew into town one day on a whim and planted yourself right inside my soul. You’re rooted in me now, baby. I don’t mind waiting to watch you bloom.”
“But you and your daughter are my home.” Dragging his hand down my neck, he grasps the necklace at the center of my throat. “You’re my compass, Wildflower. I’ll follow you forever, because that’s where I find home.”
