Kindle Notes & Highlights
“You’ll be the father of my children, the love of my life and the person I get to grow old with.”
“There’ll be no other ending for us, Freckles, because you’re fucking it for me.”
I’m so, so sorry, Freckles.
“You sure you want to birth his spawn? He’s a dick.”
“I n-never stopped loving you.” My heart is fucking sore, but I need to get this last part out. I know I’m dying. But the only thing I’m worried about is her getting the fuck away from those evil pricks. “I will… will always lo-love you, Freckles. Go, live your life and be free. Meet someone who can tr-treat you ri-ight. For-for-forget me.”
Dad slams his hand on the table between us, but I don’t flinch – I think I still have drugs in my system. “Do not speak about any woman that way. Ever.”
He may be a psychopath but at least he respects women! 🤪
“You’re right. Your mother deserves everything in life that doesn’t involve me.”
“Fuck them both. You’re a handsome guy, rich and you have a big cock. You can get whoever you want.” He swoops the cigarette from between my lips and tosses it out the window. “Spark that joint – I threw the other one away to be dramatic.”
Base, please. 🤣
“You do know that you two aren’t together? You can do whatever the fuck you want.” “Would you want the girl you loved to know how much of a fuck-up you are?”
🥺
For the next two years, I die a little more each day, until the version of Kade Mitchell I want to be turns into a ghost. My soul is shattered and broken, and I lose all the pieces, unable to glue it back together. Look at me now, my little princess. Daddy’s gone, and he’s never coming back.
From the moment my stepbrother laid eyes on me, I knew life was going to be hard. But for that year, that wonderful, glorious year when I was in my late teens, I had something, someone, that made it worth sticking around, despite all those bad things. I fell head over heels for Kade Mitchell. My best friend’s brother. The guy who teased me whenever I was near him, who made my nerves shatter in both good and bad ways. He made me smile when I was sad, laugh when I felt like crying and warm when I felt so cold. He reminded me of what it felt like to be alive.
I want to tell her to go fuck herself, that I’ll fucking kill her, but I can see the panic in Base’s eyes. I might not give a fuck whether I live or die, but he’s determined to stick around, hoping he’ll eventually get a chance with my sister.

“I can’t wait until you’re in prison, or even better – dead.” “You’d be devastated, don’t lie.” Sarcasm fills my tone as I say, “My heart breaks thinking about all the peace I’d get.”
Stacey, my sarcastic queen.
As much as Tobias is dangerous, he’s also vulnerable. I called him my big teddy bear once, and he thought I was trying to offend him. He’s a loose cannon when he’s not under control and lets his dark side take over, but most of the time, he just wants to talk about his lost love and read a book.
“I should’ve told Kade what was happening. He would have protected our child – that’s on me. But I can’t wait until Kade gets his revenge on you. You took his daughter from him, and even if he doesn’t care about me anymore, he’ll torture you for that. I hope he puts you through hell.” “Let’s assume Kade does get his hands on me,” he says as he follows me with our bags. “Would you help him, Stacey?” I throw my head back and laugh. “He’s the son of Tobias Mitchell. He doesn’t need help.”
SHE SAID WHAT SHE SAID. ☝🏼
“Are you going to be my forever, Freckles?” What is forever if it’s not with him?
