Can't Get Enough (Skyland, #3)

by Kennedy Ryan

“No, but the world is constantly demanding that why. There are women like me who are mothering in our own ways, but have never carried a child or been a parent. We’re teachers and mentors and social workers and godmothers. We find ways to pour love into the world, to shape the world for good without bearing a child. It’s not about our wombs. It’s about our hearts and how we share them. That is bodily agency—me getting to decide what I do with my body in this life.”

There are parts of you that want to be held, want to be needed and loved. That is just as emotionally valid as the parts of you that crave independence.

I’ve always known there is power in making your own way, but maybe when you find the right person, there is joy in sharing it.

I don’t want to defer my chance at joy for ambition, that my independence doesn’t have to mean isolation.

“I want my love to be the most extravagant gift I ever give you,”
