Kindle Notes & Highlights
“You don’t have to say that.” The minute the words leave my mouth, I know I shouldn’t have muttered them. It just feels reactionary, to not accept a compliment but rather put myself down. And Wilder calls me out on it.
You’re unlike any woman I’ve ever met before—complex yet simple. Insecure but also very confident. And I’d be lying if I said that I wasn’t attracted to you. And I’m not saying this to hit on you. I’m not saying this to try to get you to tear your shirt off. I’m saying this because you deserve to hear it. You deserve the truth. You are beautiful, Scottie.”
