A Deal with the Devil (The Grumpy Devils, #1)

by Elizabeth O'Roark

The silver lining to having nothing left to lose is that...I have nothing left to lose.

And even if I were poisoned and Matt was the only one with the antidote, I wouldn’t take his help. If I were drowning and he threw me a flotation device, I’d use the last of my energy to give him the finger.

Standing here is like being reunited with a missing part of myself, one I know is diseased but still feels right.

Men like him want to be the center of someone’s universe and look elsewhere the minute they’re not.”

The things I miss are pretty stupid. I miss having someone to eat with, someone to talk to while I brush my teeth at night. I miss having someone who will listen to the stupid stuff that happens each day, the stories that don’t really have a point.”
