Kindle Notes & Highlights
I fell for the blond-haired, blue-eyed boy next door that night, but I was too stupid to know it.
“We all have hard days, Kens. We all have weak moments, but you have to find your strength and reach for it.”
“But you have to know what it meant to me, Kens.” He glances up then. “Every time you’ve ever been in my arms, from four years ago to five minutes ago, every damn time … it means something to me. You mean something to me.”
“Sometimes, in order to win, we do things we don’t always agree with. Things we think are wrong. But, Hero, a good defense can only do so much against a solid offense. If you’ve only got one play left in you, give it all you’ve got. He doesn’t deserve your respect.”
“We all have demons, Parker. Some of us just wear them on our sleeves.”

“Me and you. Fuck the world here. You try to go, and I’ll drag your ass back. Don’t care where or why. No excuses or reasons will cut it. Not a fucking thing, no fucking more.” He pops a blond brow, making me grin. “I’ve got no more plays. I’m all out of defense here. Gotta keep you now.”
“When it comes to each other, our hearts are defenseless. No way out. No others in.”
She’s everything I ever wanted and nothing I thought I’d ever have. But here she is. In my arms. My nightingale.
