Tumble (Dogwood Lane, #1)

by Adriana Locke

“Maybe there are no happy endings. Maybe we’re all searching for this fairy tale because mass-market media shoves it in our faces, but maybe it’s all a made-up thing that we will never get.”

“Men get angry and loud and bristle because we don’t know how to be vulnerable. We’re so afraid of losing position and getting hurt that we try to make ourselves seem invincible, even if it’s only ourselves we’re kidding.”

life is not about what happens to you, but how you react to it. My reaction to you leaving is to come and get you because I don’t see another way to live without you by my side. And I know a little girl who thinks the world of you, and I’d be honored if you’d be a part of her life too.”
