Never Look Back (Redemption Hills, #3)

by A.L. Jackson

“We were born into those lives,” I managed.

“And I was supposed to take you from it. Together, we were supposed to find better lives.”

living in a world where he didn’t exist had never been an option I was willing to entertain.

“Do you want to stay? With me?” He cut me off.

“I’ve never wanted to be anywhere but by your side.”

Aster Rose had become the minutes that counted in his day.

“I would die for you, Aster Rose.”

I’m asking you to live for me, Logan.

I’m here, with you. And with you is the only place I want to be.”

“My North Star. My direction. My heart’s destination.”

A promise to see me through the night where he would continue to love me in the light.

“I’ll be whatever you want me to be, just as long as you know you are mine.”

We’ve had to fight for our families and for their safety. For the love that found us here. And we want you to know we’ll fight for yours, too.”

“I’ll do anything for you, Aster.”

“And I’ll give you everything I have.”

“I love you, Logan Lawson. I love you. I am yours. Today, tomorrow, and yesterday. Forever. I’m yours.”

“You think I don’t love you, Aster Rose? You are the very meaning of it. You are the one who taught me what it meant.”

“I love you, Aster. I love you with this heart that had forgotten how to beat. Not until it remembered you. It belongs to you, Aster. All of it. It always has.”

“Every day we were apart, I was missing a piece of myself, Logan. I was missing you. You.”

“There is no better place in this world than being in you,”

Been searching high and low for anything that could make me feel as good as you.”

“It was all made in vain because every road led back to you.”

“You are the end of every road.”

“This time, we’re not giving up anything, Aster. We’re not sacrificing or yielding or surrendering. We’re taking what’s ours.”

I’m pretty sure I’d sacrifice anything for him.”

You can’t keep shining when you only shine to cover the darkness you hold onto.”

“Love him. Love him right. Love him whole. Because he fucking loves you with everything he’s got, and he’s willing to give it all.”

“You are the existence that forever burned within me, Aster.

When I walk into a room? I want to walk in it for you. When I get up in the morning? I want to rise for you. When I live this life? I want to live it for you.”

“Little Star…marry me because I’m tired of looking at the sky without you in it.”

I want you to know, I stand by you, by her, whatever you need.”

“You promised your father you would never see me again if he

spared my life? That’s why you married Jarek?”

“I’m yours, Aster. Fucking yours, and I’m always going to be,

Trent scoffed. “And I’m afraid that’s not gonna happen.”

He slowly shifted to watch as we came, his spine going straight, fear and hate in his eyes.

That’s right, motherfucker, be afraid.

The man was our biggest threat.

Trained to kill. The same as my oldest brother.

Only Oz swung around to the side, and he didn’t have his gun pointed at me or Trent.

Rather, it was pointed at Haille.

he dug into the inside of his jacket with his free hand.

When he pulled it out, he tossed a handgun in my direction.
