Kindle Notes & Highlights

“It’s our wedding night, pet. The beginning of forever. I wouldn’t miss a minute of it unless I had to. Remember that.”
“This woman is Ava Crewes. She’s my wife. My everything. And I want each of you to know that she owns me. Got that?”
“Tanner… he’s our tech guy… he made it so that no other numbers can get through. I keep it charged every day. I always have.”
