Kindle Notes & Highlights
“That whole Taylor Swift album was like a dedication to your shitty marriage to little dick.”
I can’t help it that fictional characters are often better than real people.
“Sometimes I just want to run away, wander, and travel. Be free.”
She has one of the most captivating smiles, lighting up every room she enters and stopping me in my tracks. She always has.
Who knew good friendship and red lipstick could change a woman’s life?
You two are like magnets. You always fought and made your way back to each other.”
“Knowledge has always been chasing you, but you’ve always been faster.”
One thing I’ve learned is that family isn’t always the one you come from. It’s the one that you make.
“I’m going to kiss you, Everly. Say no if you don’t want that to happen.”
“Nah, Rich. You can’t claim something you never really had. You know she’s always been mine.”
“But you should know that I intend on ending this silence between us. I want you to know my feelings and what I want to do about them.” “And that is?” she asks. “I’m claiming what’s mine.” Her breath hitches. “Nash . . .”
“You think I don’t have a lot to lose? I already lost you once, Ev. I’m not going to let anything mess this up, especially since Willow is involved,”
“I don’t want this to be a temporary thing. I can’t take that.” “Beautiful, you’re nothing casual. You’re forever.”
“I’ve never had a type, Everly, ever. Just been chasin’ shadows who weren’t and could never be you. You’re my type. It’s only ever been you.”
“Beautiful, I’m whiskey, and you’re tea. We are opposite in so many ways, but we go together. I’m not a nice guy, but I’m a good guy. You need to know the difference. I’ll always love, protect, and be here for both of you, no matter what.” He strokes my cheek, and I lean my head on his shoulder.
“Do you want to get married?” she continues as she finishes her soup, watching me. “Weird way to propose, but yes,”
“Everly, I’d marry you right now if I could. Right fucking now. You’re it for me. Let me make that very clear. You and Willow are mine. Just as I’m yours.”
“I’m going to marry you and be a father to Willow. And I’m going to have as many babies with you as you want. We’re going to build our dream house on the property and have horses, and everyone will be happy like we deserve.”
“I could live anywhere if it feels like home. And you feel like home, Nash.”
“What we have, people write fucking stories about. The way I feel about you is unmatched to anyone else.”
“In you, I’ve found my best friend, my lover, and my protector. I love you, Nash.”
Because sometimes family isn’t who you started with; it’s who you end up with.
