Kindle Notes & Highlights
“No matter what, we stay together. Miles, months, cities, years…” Her breath strangles. “We’re bigger than anything that tries to come between us.”
“I’m not broken,” she whispers. “You don’t need me to fix you. You need me to sit with you in the sadness.”
And those jeans fit so low and provocatively around his hips I can see his religion.
“I’ll give you a few seconds to be single.” He bends his knees, putting his face in mine. “But don’t get used to it.”
With a grin that bares my teeth, I do what I’ve done my entire life. I chase her.
Lips swollen and hair mussed, he gives me the full force of his eyes. “You’re the only woman I’ve ever kissed.”
“You said something to me in the barn.” I feather my fingers along the rigid shape of him through the cotton. “Do you remember? You pressed your lips—” “Against your cheek. I wanted you to feel my voice when I said, I love you. I belong to you. No matter the time or distance, I’m yours.”
I fell in love with him when we were kids, before I understood the language of love. Tonight, I fall harder than ever before. With every kiss, glance, smile, and evocative word, he doesn’t just stitch my heart back together. He welds it to his own.
