Where We Found Our Passion (Lost & Found, #3)

by Natasha Bishop

A part of me always knew it, but this moment just confirmed that I would still, to this day, do absolutely anything for this woman.

“I would very much like to kiss you, but if I do that means you’d be mine so I need to know if you’d be into that.”

The revelation that Olivia Harding has always been and will always be one thing above anything else. Mine.

But here’s the thing. If you’d just take your wall down one damn inch you’d realize that there isn’t a war I wouldn’t fight, dragon I wouldn’t slay, or mountain I wouldn’t climb for you. You don’t even have to ask. All you have to do is let me in.”

“Because I want you to understand that if you really want something, you have to be willing to work for it. To give it your blood, sweat, and tears.”

“You’re funny. No, love, what happens next is I’m going to destroy you. I’ve craved you for years, and you’ve denied me for too long, so I’m not going easy on you. I’m going to completely wreck your body until only I can piece you back together.”

“You will. I warned you already that I was gonna wreck you, so you’re not done. You’ll take everything I give you until I say enough because you can handle it. Do you understand?”

I want to love her completely, in all her forms, for the rest of our lives. I just need her to want that too.

“I’ve met plenty of guys like him; they’re not unique. There are real men and then there are men who need to try to make women feel small and irrelevant to make themselves feel better about what they lack. You hold so much power inside of you, Liv. Don’t ever let anyone take it from you.”

“You know what, Myra? Since I’m all about women empowerment, let me give you a piece of advice. You might want to dust off that résumé.”
