Until You (Off-Limits, #1)

by Catharina Maura

“Because he doesn’t deserve you, and you should never let a man hold you back from chasing your dreams. Not Noah, not me, and certainly not Brad. Follow your dreams, Aria, and if he’s the one, he’ll follow you.”

I can lose myself in some fictional story, a story that’ll allow me to experience moments of happiness that elude me in my own life.

“Brad was a fool to mess with you,” he tells me, his thumb stroking the edge of my lips. “A fucking fool. When I saw those tears in your eyes… there’s no way he was going to get away with what he did. No fucking way. No one hurts you and gets away with it. No one. Not on my fucking watch. I will never sit there and watch your heart break, Ari.”

What do a cock and a Rubik’s cube have in common? I’ll tell you… The more you play with them, the harder they get

If you were a vegetable, you would be a cute-cumber.

“You’re better than I am, Aria. You’re a better person, you’re stronger, you’re smarter. Don’t look up to me. Look in the mirror.”

I’m done for. The way she makes me feel… yeah. There’s no point in fooling myself any longer. I’m falling for my best friend’s little sister.

“Tell me you’re mine, Aria. Tell me that from this day forward, I get to call you mine.”

I’m fucking crazy about you, and I have been for months. Hell… I’m pretty sure I love you.”

“I’m in love with you, Aria Grant. Head over heels. Butterflies and all that shit. I’ll wait a lifetime for you if you want me to. So tell me, baby… do you want to stop? We can stop right here if you want to.”

But here’s the thing about that… just because he’s the love of my life doesn’t mean I’m his.
