Kindle Notes & Highlights
Blue eyes shouldn’t look so dark. Blue skies are my favorite, and they reflect in your eyes like a crisp spring morning. Blue is my favorite color.
“Are you running away from me? I’m not sure I love that.”
If you spare a smile today. If you send it my way…I’ll drink it up and lock it in a box full of hope. Maybe you shouldn’t.
“Seeing other men was a thing for when I was away, Sweets. I’m back now, and I don’t want to have to play mean.”
Your whiskey eyes get me drunk on you.
Ella Baker. My beautiful obsession. The one who still thinks I’ll allow her to move on from me.
“Yesterday. Tonight. Tomorrow. In ten years. She’s mine.” My heart liquifies, melted by the dangerous heat in his voice. “Don’t test that. You don’t want to play with a man who would blow the world to pieces for her.” His voice lowers to a grave baritone. “Because, tell me, if I’m willing to destroy myself for her, what makes you think I won’t destroy someone as insignificant as you?”
‘I wouldn’t go back to you if you were my last option on earth.’ You’re lying. You’ll come back to me because that’s what I want. I always get what I want.
She can’t control how much I need her to breathe,
“We’re not going there today, Chris. You don’t get to pick who I date.” “I absolutely do. You don’t date anyone.”
My pathological need to care goes hand in hand with your daddy issues.”
“Act like a lady, get treated like one. Act like a brat, get fucked like one.”
God, I hate that man so much it feels a lot like love.
If there isn’t a smile on her face, I want to know why. If there’s a tear on her cheek, I want to know who. And if there’s a name tattooed on her heart, it has to be mine.
there isn’t any other ending to her story than the one where I’m her happily ever after.
You will live, because I’m the one who allows oxygen into your lungs.”
“I would never hurt you. You’re my everything. You’re my heaven in this goddamned broken world. But I will hurt anyone you let near you, do you understand?
“I knew you would be a mistake because you would never give me my heart back if I offered it to you. And look at what you did. You stole it, you kept it to yourself. You became the only person it could beat for.”
In a perfect world, my love for you would be easy. At least in this world, it’s worth it.
I feel my face twist at his words. “Don’t talk about me like I’m some toy you’re going to have full ownership over.” “You’re not a toy,” he says, and I know there’s more, so I cock an eyebrow. “You’re my toy.”
This man fell from heaven and somehow chose to stay on earth for me.
If it takes until the day I die to fix this, I’ll work tirelessly every single day I’m alive. All I want is to see your beautiful eyes shining with love before I close mine for eternity.
He smirks, the devil within him darkening the already blackened forest.
