Kindle Notes & Highlights
To the book girls—may your hot, tattooed man on a motorcycle show up at your doorstep with cookies, so you don't have to leave your house or your book.
“Then congratulations, you’re about to be a rebel for what I can only imagine is the first time in your life.”
“Wow, there are a lot of rules, and I was kind of right about the being an asshole thing.” He turned to look at me. “You absolutely were. Safety first, Rebel,” he said, slamming my visor down. “Now hold on.”
“Well, guess what, Rook? We are already here, so I’m going to walk around the corner, and get a cookie. You can either sit there and wait like a good little mugger, leave me here, or come with me, but I’ve had a really shitty night and I want a fucking cookie,” she said, nearly in tears.
Maybe you aren’t as scary as you thought. Rook Or maybe you’re a devil yourself. Why fear what is your equal?
“I see you found another backpack.” “I see you learned what a backpack is,”
“I didn’t bring a gun tonight, but I have a knife. Want me to threaten you with that?” “No need. I’m here with someone, too.”
“No, you aren’t.” “I am, actually. And I have to get back, so have a good night.” I spun on my boot heel, angling myself in Jake’s direction,
“You took my girl on a date, Jake?” He asked, his eyebrows shooting up. “I’m not your girl,” I hissed. “Say it louder then, Rebel,” he whispered. “Tell him you didn’t come here just because you wanted to find me.”
“Touch her again, Jake, and I will kill you.”
You shouldn’t come around me anymore. You’re a monster,”
“I don’t think you know the half of it, Rebel.”
He came to my side of the bed, his eyes locked on mine as he grabbed the bottom of his shirt, lifting it slowly. I gasped, my anger dying out at the sight of his burned, scarred skin, tattoos, and abs. The combination made me lose my train of thought as I tried to take it all in. “Quite a monstrous sight, isn’t it?” he asked.
Was he truly a monster, or had someone turned him into one?
“Again, you set these up so perfectly. My ego is big, but I have something else that’s bigger.”
