Kindle Notes & Highlights
Mmm, you’re right. I am a pig… because while I do not remember the sex, that ass is fantastic.
“Oh, I think they would certainly disagree, Miss Tyler,” he says as our glasses clink. “I always aim for satisfaction.”
He put his hands on Jessica… so he lost those hands.
But, then I would also have to confess that I had actually been listening via the new security system I had installed today.
Natalie, I promise you, I am not a better man. Because I want to do a million sinful things to you.
“Jaxon, you are always going to wonder if you’re doing the right thing, or enough of the right thing. It’s normal. It’s the only indication that you are doing the right thing.”
“I just think, if you let her go now, you’d be making the biggest mistake of your life.”
“My dear, pleasure doesn’t always have to be an even exchange, it’s not a currency. It’s a gift you share. And sometimes it’s enough to just make someone else feel good.”
“Don’t judge a painting while the artist is still holding the brush… or you might miss out on something beautiful altogether.”
Few moments in my life were such that I knew instantly they would stick with me forever: The day my daughter was born. The moment my father died. And the first dance I shared with Natalie Tyler.
“For some reason, you keep
telling yourself that you’re not enough for me, and that I can’t possibly want you. But nothing could be further from the fucking truth. You see, I keep telling myself that if I had any decency at all, I would tell you to run far away from me.”
“I have already told you, I am not a good man, Natalie,” he growls. “I am a hard man, and I live in a hard world… and I like to fuck hard.”
“there is no part of me that doesn’t want you.”
“Naughty girl,” he chuckles. “How do I taste?” “Sinful,” I whisper back. “I bet you taste better,” he says against my neck. “What do you say we find out…”
Jaxon Pace was certainly a dangerous man and every fiber in my body should be afraid of him. But I am not afraid of Jaxon.
I want to feel the way he makes my body tremble with a look, and the way his voice sets my veins on fire. I want to feel the heart-pounding, room-spinning, incomparable and completely overwhelming way that only he makes me feel, as often as I can, for as long as I can. Jaxon has awakened a part of me that I never even knew existed and made me feel alive for the first time in my life.
“I want you, desperately, and right now, the only thing I need is you.”
“Baby girl, I know full well I don’t deserve you. But, if you let me, I will worship you.”
“Well, your first mistake is assuming that it was ever about reading the book in the first place,” I hear her say softly. “Instead, it is about losing yourself in another world altogether.”
“The truth is your body will age and fail, but your imagination will stay young forever. Books are just sustenance for the soul.”
The cheating, lying, pill-popping, pathetic excuse of a man who betrayed me and sold me over to the fucking mafia!
For little more than what I’m sure is just another fucking fix of whatever drug you’re hooked on!”
