Kindle Notes & Highlights
more than fine. This guy should be falling at her feet, doing whatever he can for her attention. Darcy Andersen’s the full package. Smart, hilarious, and gorgeous, with pretty, pale-blond hair, sea-green eyes, and an adorable nose that turns up at the tip.
She’s Kit’s ex. She’s off-limits, and she’s her own person who can make her own decisions, but I think about some guy’s hands all over her, and I want to break something.
His mouth slides into a lazy, flirty smile. “You want flowers, Darcy? I’ll buy you flowers.”
Hazel and Pippa exchange another one of those weighted glances. Rory looks at Hayden, and there’s something in his eyes that I can’t read either. Jamie just stares at Pippa like she’s a snack he wants to eat.

“Eight.” He looks away, folding his arms over his chest. “One for each year we’ve been friends.”
“Oh, yeah?” He grins, and there’s my Hayden again.
It’s the best thing I’ve ever experienced.
My Darcy.
“You always take such good care of me.”
“Uh-huh. You may be the hottest guy I’ve ever seen, but I can tell you’re kind and funny, and you have a good heart. You’re an incredible hockey player, not just because of how fast and strong you are, but because you care about your team and making your coach proud. And you probably like fantasy romance, don’t you?”
