Kindle Notes & Highlights
“Love gives someone the power to break you…and if you give the wrong man that power…he’ll shatter your heart and ruin you.”
I love Stone…I really do. I just wish I knew why the second he placed a ring on my finger and I said yes… it felt like a noose was tightening around my neck.
She might love him now… But she loved me first. Even when I hated her.
“I know it hurts, baby girl,” he whispers against my hair. “I’m so fucking sorry he’s gone.”
Because she hurt me in ways she doesn’t remember… and I hurt her in ways I can’t forget.
“There’s plenty of shit people should apologize for in this world…but feelings should never be one of them.”
“I’ll bend you over this bench, tear your little panties off with my teeth…” The tip of his nose skims the column of my throat. “And fuck you so hard everyone on campus will hear you scream my name.”
“You’re still here, though. Which means you’re stronger than what tried to break you.”
Because if life has taught me anything…it’s that beautiful things never last.
But life doesn’t always play fair. Sometimes it throws you a monkey wrench that’s downright brutal. Sometimes—no matter how much you don’t want to—you still end up hurting people you care about.
I thought we were happy and in love. Two broken pieces of the same soul. But maybe we weren’t? Maybe we were fire and gasoline instead. Maybe what we felt for each other was a lethal addiction. And the only way to save ourselves from total destruction is to quit each other.
Would you have been strong and beautiful like your mother? Or would you be lost and confused like your father? All these questions in my head, but none of them will ever be answered. And even though you were gone too soon, one thing's for sure. You might not have been planned... But were loved and you were wanted.
There are times in your life when you realize you’re stuck at a fork in the road and the decision you make will change your life forever.
