Kindle Notes & Highlights
“Well, dear, I know I don’t have to tell you, but being disappointed by men, especially ones who believe they’re smarter than you, is the unfortunate part of being a woman.”
“Mijo. ¿Por qué no puedes buscar una novia linda? Y que sea simpática. ¡Como ella!”
There’s not a single person, animal, alien, or living thing that can deny it: Lily Rodin is absolutely fucking gorgeous.
If I remember correctly, summer looks really good on you.” “Only summer?” I chuckle. “You, Lily, are the muse behind every season.”
“For you, princesa, I’d be on my knees, eternally at your service.”
“Can you be a good girl for me, Lil, and run your pretty tongue over my fingers?” My heart stops. “I don’t want to wait until your wicked mouth goes dry because you can’t stop screaming my name.”
“If I haven’t made it clear already”—he slides his fingers into me and curls them—“I’ll never get enough of you.”
“You enjoy being on your knees for me, don’t you?” I bend down to help him. “It’s the most natural place for worship.”

You’re right, a life without each other would feel incomplete. Which is why I want to spend our days having breakfast for dinner. I want to sleep in the same bed, under the same sheets. I want to watch
rom-coms with you and hold your hand when you force yourself to sit through scary movies with me.” Our grip on each other grows firmer, and I can feel her pulse beat in tandem with mine beneath her palm. “I want you, Lily. I want to call you, kiss you, feel you. I want your faults and truths and each one of your laughs.
love you for always making me laugh, even in the most inappropriate times. I love you for talking my ear off with silly jokes and ideas. I love the way you ask all the hard-hitting questions, even when I don’t want to hear them. I love you like I’ve never loved anyone, and I want your liabilities.”
