All Your Perfects

by Colleen Hoover

Apologies are good for admitting regret, but they do very little in removing the truth from the actions that caused the regret.

In this scene, Quinn was hurt by Graham’s actions and words. Even though he apologized and admitted he regretted those actions, it did very little to ease the pain of what he’d done. Quinn wasn’t in a good place during this scene. She was full of resentment, pain, disappointment. It’s hard to find the forgiveness and light inside yourself when everything else inside of you is dark and murky.
