Kindle Notes & Highlights
“Thinking of you keeps me awake. Dreaming of you keeps me asleep. Being with you keeps me alive.”
Why do the gorgeous ones always have to be so cocky?
“Maddie . . . First of all, if you’ve got a daddy kink, I’ll be your daddy all day, every day.”
“Don’t hurt him, Maddie. He might seem invincible, but he’s not. He’s a really good guy, with a really big heart. Be sure of what you want before you make any decisions. Because from what I’ve seen, when the Kingstons fall, they fall hard. They love hard. And if you give him your heart, I don’t see how he could ever let it go. Because you, Mads, are incredible.”
“I’ve wanted you every single day since you walked into Crucible three years ago, Madison.”
“The fight’s in five days, Maddie. Just do me a favor and make sure he stays focused until then. After that, he’s all yours.”
“Are you sure about this, Madison? Because once we cross this line, there’s no going back. You’ll be mine, and I won’t let you go.”
“Has anyone ever done this before, Madison?” “No,” she whimpers, and her hips press against my face. “Good. Because no one else ever will,” I growl.
I’m not sure how much time passes in the silence of the night, while I’m lost in my thoughts, before I gently press my lips to Hudson’s neck and quietly whisper, “I think I was waiting for you to fix me.” His heavy arms tighten around me. “You were never broken, Maddie. And I would have waited forever for you.”
“You gonna win tonight for me, King?” I tease and scrape my nails lightly against his scalp. “I can be your prize.” “You’re gonna be my everything, Madison.”
“Why do you call me sunshine?” I counter. “Because you are, baby. You’re sunshine and warmth. Your smile, your eyes, your entire fucking being lights up every room you walk into, and you don’t even realize it. I’ve always wanted to be near you. Been drawn to you. Always wanted just a piece of your attention, so I could feel your warmth.”
“Marriage is a piece of paper to me, Hudson. But you . . . you’re everything, and it matters to you. So, win the damn fight, and let’s get married.”
