Kindle Notes & Highlights
She’s haunted by him. Because isn’t that what past relationships are? Ghost after ghost after ghost?
“Sometimes I think it’s all you need in the world. If you have that one right person in your life, you can survive anything.”
She’s like an eclipse. Dark and light. Terrifying and fascinating. A once-in-a-lifetime event to remember before it’s gone.
And suddenly he’s surprised to find that yellow is his favorite fucking color.
He laughs, and it feels like her favorite sweater wrapped around her hips. Comfortable. Livable. Home.
“Everything,” she whispers. “I feel everything.”
“Yeah,” he murmurs. “I do too.”
“So fucking gorgeous,” he murmurs, taking her in his arms.
“My morbid little beauty.”
She’s beautiful. The most beautiful woman he’s ever seen.
After only a few days, Nathaniel’s a comfort. A need.
Eleven days together, and already, she feels like the home he’s never had. Which is
No one else on earth has ever seen her so completely. It’s terrifying.
She makes him want to stop running. To make a home. But unless it’s with her, it’s not worth it.
“But you’re also a beautiful, brilliant pain in the ass. My pain in the ass. You make this bullshit world better.”
He doesn’t know how to tell her. That he’s not okay if she’s not okay. That he’d give his own life to keep her safe. That she’s endgame. In his head, heart, blood, soul. She owns him.
She’s allowed to have happiness, and it looks like Nathaniel. In every universe, it will look like him.
He means it. She’s his. She will always be a sharp object. And he will never stop loving her.
“I love you. Until this world ends and our sun is nothing but a shriveled, dead star, I will love you.”
“I choose you, Nathaniel. In every universe, in every afterlife, I will always choose you. I love you.”
Love isn’t about fixing yourself so that someone loves you. It’s about finding the right person to love you as you are.
