A Worthy Opponent (Wicked Villains, #3)

by Katee Robert

I love my curves, love the fact that I get to choose my beautiful. If anyone has a problem with that, they can fuck right off.

Been there, done that, bought a T-shirt, burned it to ash.

the only people out there searching for damsels in distress are more dangerous than anything said damsel leaves behind.

“Letting people help you isn’t a sign of weakness.”

I welcome the pain. It means I’m still alive, still here.

“You know who you are now. That confidence, that attitude, the drive. It’s fucking devastating.”

“All the stories end with the villain vanquished and the happy couple riding off into the sunset. That’s what happily ever after is. They never have to work on their relationship, never have to get their hands dirty when facing the challenges living a full life creates. They’re caught in stasis, without conflict, without problems, without life. That’s no way to live.”

Tink. The problems and the victories and the day-to-day mundane bullshit. I want everything.”
