Kindle Notes & Highlights
“That’s a shame. A beautiful woman drinking whisky is my weakness.” The water glass in my hand bobbled and I nearly spilled it on my apron. I’d heard a lot of pickup lines standing behind this bar, and I’d mastered the art of turning down a man without bruising his ego—or losing his tip. But I’d be a fool to dodge that line. “Then maybe I’ll give it another try.” “I’d like that.” He smiled wider as he reached across the bar, his long fingers leading the way. “I’m Logan.” I placed my hand in his, already lost in the fairy tale. “Thea.”
“I like to take the tattered and lost and make it shine. Garbage doesn’t have to stay garbage. Things just need to find their right place.”
“We’re in a relationship, Thea. Man. Woman. Boyfriend. Girlfriend. Call it whatever you want. But when I introduce you to my family, it will be with your hand in mine. And it’s time we stopped hiding it from Charlie.”
The woman I loved—the love of my life—was leaving me for Montana. She was taking my daughter with her, and there wasn’t a damn thing I could do to stop it. All along, I’d believed that we could make this work. I’d believed that I could convince them to move. But as I listened to Thea and Charlie talk about going home, my beliefs slipped into the night. Because I knew, deep down, the right thing to do was to let them go where they would be happiest.
