Daisy Haites (Magnolia Parks Universe, #2)

by Jessa Hastings

And, look, I’d be lying if I said I hadn’t wondered what it would be like to date someone like Tiller… someone just entirely normal. Completely regular, not wanted by any state or federal agency, just your run-of-the-mill sexy citizen. I think he thinks I’m exciting. I wonder if I am to him what he is to me—a complete escape from our realities and our everyday lives; him to me, a normal person, and me to him, a criminal.16 Just a strange kind of daydream, something that could never actually work, but might be really fun to try. Not that we ever would or could, but sometimes I think about what it’d be like to jump in his car one day and just tell him to drive. Sometimes I think he’d do it, that he’d kiss me and peel out and not look back. Other times I think he’d drive me straight to the penitentiary. Forget I mentioned anything. I don’t have feelings for Tiller, I just have feelings for being normal.
