More Than This (More Than, #1)

by Jay McLean

He’s not the hearts-and-flowers kind of guy—he’s the heart-and-soul kind, and fuck if every girl would rather have that than the flowers.

To have to be around the person you love, and not be able to love them, is the hardest thing to do.

I wish the world would leave me alone for just one minute, so I can gather the strength to get up and face it.

I’m not ready to give him everything. I’m still broken, and I need to pick up the pieces of myself and put them back together. If I give myself to him, I have to be complete. I can’t be half the person I want to be.”

Maybe you don’t need to be a complete person, or maybe you do. But maybe he’s it—maybe he’s the other half of you.”

“Your very first kiss with your prince will change your life. When your lips touch for the first time, the earth will feel like it has stopped moving, but at the same time the world around you spins. It’ll feel like fireworks in the night sky—a bright light in the darkness.

I just don’t think you should let bad people dictate whether you have a good life.
