Kindle Notes & Highlights
All thick arms and broad chest and furrowed brow. Dirty boots. Muscular thighs. Cowboy porn with a frown.
I’ll take a boozy brunch with my bestie and a dirty book in bed by eight for a thousand, Alex.
literally lol
“Beg.” “Pardon me?” “You heard me.” Her lips don’t even twitch. She’s not joking at all. “Beg.”
HAHA
“Songs about your truck breaking down. Your dog dying. Your woman leaving you for another man.” She laughs, oblivious to the fact that she just ripped open the stitches of a wound that has been painfully slow to heal.
ohhhhhh ouch
I imagine her wearing those simple black panties that are still in my kitchen drawer.
THE STUFF DRAWER IS IN THE FUCKING KITCHEN???? HKSHSJSHD
“Eaton. You grumpy motherfucker. You just laughed,” I blurt. “Yeah, Red. I did.”
“The joke’s on you though. I wouldn’t last ten minutes and just because you’d be quiet doesn’t mean I would be.”
“Where are my panties?” His lips slope up, a sly expression hitting his face. “In the garbage.”
LIARRRRRR
“That I like sitting here with your eyes on me.” “Fuck,” he groans, running a wet hand over his face and through his dark hair before tossing his head back and polishing off the dregs of the bourbon.
fuck is right NSKDFKFSJFF
“What are you thinking?” I push. Wanting to know. Wanting to hear him say he likes what he sees. “I didn’t pick truth, Willa.”
AAAAAAA
“Dare.” His expression doesn’t say crawl onto my lap and ride me. It says help me. And so that’s what I do. But probably not in the way he saw coming. “I dare you to do those rodeos and let me take care of Luke while you do.”
YESSSSSS
“We’re cooking you dinner,” Luke announces. “We’re cooking dinner,” I clarify. “Of course, you’re welcome to join us.”
sureeeeee hehehe
Red, The coffee is for you. Starting some two-year-olds today. If you feel like getting your back broken, meet me at the barn and you can sit on one. - C
this is a crazy note HAHAHAHDJDJD
“I’m pretty sure of the two of us, you’re the one with the filthy mouth, Cade.” His hand shoots between the metal panels, fingers hooking through my belt loop to hold me still. To keep me there, as he breathes down on to me. The whoosh of each exhale caresses my cheek. “You have no fuckin’ idea, Red.”
IM SCREAMING
“Or did you miss the part where he pushed Luke into the pool and held his head under water?”
WTF
“Oh, no?” “Not another word.” “Fine.” Willa smiles but it’s a scary smile. And then, with one well-placed hip check, the birthday boy goes flying into the water.
HAHAAHAH
Willa might be a bit of a psycho—after all, she did just push a child into the pool—but the more time I spend with her, the more I feel like she’s my psycho.
I feel safe when I’m scowling, but it’s getting harder and harder to look at Willa Grant without smiling.
It’s with a smile on my lips that I lean in and press my mouth to hers.
AAAAAAA FINALLY
Heartless. That’s what Talia called me in her letter. And I believed her. I still do.
“I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have done that,” is what I come up with. A douchebag thing to say, no doubt.
yes very much so
Jasper is quiet, but there’s a gentleness about him. He’s introspective. There are things that weigh on him. Years behind a bar has honed my eye for people who carry invisible weight. He strikes me as . . . sad, maybe?
oh i need to read his book immediately 🥺
Jasper freezes for the briefest moment. “Sloane is coming?” “Yeah, Vi told me the other day. She’s picking her up at the airport.” Jasper covers whatever that physical reaction was with a chuckle. “Yeah. That’ll be quite the combo.”
oop 🤭🤭🤭
Rhett rolls his eyes. “I don’t care about your last name, Jas. You’re an Eaton boy, like it or not.” Jasper’s cheeks flush a little and his lips curve up. “I like it just fine, little Eaton.”
awwww
Jasper continues staring out into the ring, watching the first team ride in on their horses. He sighs deeply, and without sparing me a glance, he says, “If not for the Eaton boys, I’d probably be dead.”
:((((
Rhett looks like a goddamn dog with a bone. “Oh yeah? Have Willa and your dad been swapping massages?” “No. Just beds.”
PFTTTHDGHDGHFJH KIDS ARE FUNNY
Holding his burning glare, I slowly drop to my knees in front of him, tipping my chin up to see every flicker of emotion in his eyes. “I fucking dare you.”
OH
I squirm and chant, “Cade,” like I’m in some sort of hot-single-dad-loving cult.
welllll… HAHAHHAGJDHDG
The dog Talia took with her. She literally said she wanted “the dog or the kid.”
genuinely wtf
“Sometimes I wish you were my mom.”
oh 🥺🥺🥺
“You kids have fun!” Harvey calls, and it strikes me how blatantly obvious it must be that something is going on with us. “I drove past the other day and noticed your lawn. It could really use a good—”
HAHAHAHAHAHAZSB I LOVE DADDY EATON HAHSHSJDJD
The other day, Summer complained about her cramps, and I just tittered like a sex-drunk idiot. The blood drains from my face.
WE LATE GIRL ???? KSJDJSJDKD
Winter tracked me down a pregnancy test while Cade had his fingers casted. It came back positive for a tiny Eaton, and I just sat in the waiting room staring into space.
OH SHITTTTT KDJDKDJD
“Did Winter say something to you? Do we like her? Do we hate her? Am I supposed to be mad at something with you? Because I will be if you are. Just tell me how to be supportive.”
THIS. THIS IS HOW IT SHOULD BE ALWAYS.
groan. “You got something against condoms?” “Dad.” “Some sort of breeding kink I don’t know about?”
HAHAHAHDJSJD
One soft cheek hitches up, and he glances back down into the dark well. “I wished for Willa to come back.”
stop 🥺🥺🥺🥺
“Thank you. Thank you for being the first person in my life to put me first, to give me options. I’m not sure I deserve that gift, but I know that I’ll never forget it for as long as I live.”
whew this once got a little kick too it my nose prickling a lil skhjsfkdsk
And I realize in that moment maybe I am heartless after all, because the beautiful girl with the copper hair grinning back at me right now is the one who stole it.
“Do you think . . .” He peers back up at me now. “Do you think it would be okay if I called you mom too?”
my heart 🥺🥺🥺🥺
