Part of Your World (Part of Your World, #1)

by Abby Jimenez

“Don’t let them decide the life you’re going to live. You only get one.”

Sometimes what you have to give is enough. Even if it’s a rock instead of a diamond.”

“Nobody likes assholes,” I said quietly. “Sometimes that’s just what you think you deserve.”

Daniel empowered me instead of stripping me. Lifted me up instead of keeping me low.

There is a peace in knowing the one thing you can’t live without. It simplifies all things.

There’s something more final than forever. It’s never. Never is infinite.

Why did I think I had to sell my soul instead of them maybe learning to be open-minded or tolerant or just quiet about the choices their children were making?

I had to drown first. And I was finally, finally ready to save myself.
