Kindle Notes & Highlights
“Never in a million years. I don’t want to get to know you. The only reason I’m here is to keep myself and my family alive. There will never be anything more between us.”
“I’m thirty-three, and I actually never intended to get married.” I press my hand to my churning stomach, my tongue darting out to wet my dry lips. “Then why force me to marry you?”
His gaze locks on me again, and he stares at me for so long I’m a complete nervous wreck by the time he answers, “There’s just something about you I can’t ignore.”
“I just wanted to tell you about the wedding and to get the ring.” I never thought the day would come when I’d ask my mother for the wedding ring that’s been passed down for four generations in my family.
I couldn’t explain why I took such an interest in Haven, but as I stare at her, I realize the answer is simple. I want to own her. I’ve never seen anything more beautiful than her. She’s a fucking work of art.
Why? What the hell is it about me that caught his attention? Was it love at first sight? I let out a disgruntled snort and mumble, “Yeah, right.”
It has just become my life’s mission to break down every single wall she has up. I don’t care what it takes. I will become the most important person in her life. I will claim every inch of her sexy body. I will own her fucking heart and soul. If it’s the last thing I do.
“You’re the sweetest torture I’ve ever had to endure.” I lift my head and press a soft kiss to his mouth. “You’re the hottest temptation I’ve ever encountered.”
God, I’ve already fallen in love with him.
Kristen: I want a hot Italian man, too. Does he have any friends? Haven: One is on the way to you as we speak. Just be patient with Edoardo. He’s a little broody. Kristen: You sent a broody, hot Italian guard? I knew you loved me.
