Kindle Notes & Highlights
This book is dedicated to anyone who’s ever felt too big and too small all at once. Some day the world will catch up with our worth. But until then, know that you’re enough just as you are.
This man is an absolute Silver Fox and my libido that’s been slumbering in hibernation for the last decade just woke the fuck up.
“Baby Doll, I need you to answer me. Are you Maddie?” Baby Doll?
What the fuck is this girl doing to me? I never use pet names.
“Yes, sir.”
“Baby, I’m gonna need you to stop whatever thoughts are swirling around in that pretty head of yours.” Pretty head?
I press my lips together to keep from grinning. This guy has gone into full Daddy Bear mode and it’s amazing. If we weren’t in public, and magic was real, I’d morph my clothes into a schoolgirl outfit and climb into his lap. I’ve been skipping classes, too.
“Would you like another one, Baby?” Baby. Fuck me.
“Any man that makes you wait, is not worth your time.”
“I let you taste mine.” Breathing is hard. When did breathing get so hard?
Sweet baby Jesus, this is how I die. I’m going to self-combust in this bar.
“It’s sweet.” He places the drink back in front of me. “I didn’t think it’d be my thing, but…” “But?”
“But now that I’ve tasted it, I think I might need more.”
meant why are you here for a date with someone you don’t really know?”
Because I’m tired of being lonely. Because I want someone to hug me.
Because I want to know that there’s someone – anyone – that might love me the way I want to be loved.
There are
some bad guys out there, Baby, you need to be careful.”
“No, I just… I don’t want to be alone.”
“First, you don’t need to explain. Compared to you, I’m a beast and I know it.”
“don’t ever call yourself that in front of me again.”
“You’re fucking perfect.”
Her big, beautiful eyes and the sad soulful look in them when she said she said didn’t want to be alone… That shit almost killed me.
How fucking unfair is life if someone as stunning and sweet as Maddie is stuck being stood up at bars when she just wants to meet someone? Because she doesn’t have anyone to go with her to her best friend’s wedding.
I wanted to pull her into my lap, wrap my arms around her, and tell her she’d never be alone again.
What has this girl been through? Does Maddie really think I’d just leave her now to fend for herself? But mixed with the sadness, is lust. Her eyes are filled with it.
Doing her best to keep her expectations low. And it’s killing me.
I know the feeling
“I really hate arguing.” Every hackle I have rises and I stop walking.
Is there someone I need to dismember and bury in the woods for disagreeing with you? God help me, I’m trying to comfort the girl, not scare her.
“But you can disagree with me whenever you want. I won’t get mad at you.” “Oh.” Her eyes brighten, “See?” “See what?” “You’re too nice to me.” I heave out a breath. “Maybe just to you.” She grins, “Look at you, making a compromise on top of being nice. Keep this up and people might think you’re just a big softy.”
“Keep trying to reform demons, Angel. See where that gets you.”
“Demon?! I don’t think so, A...

“Smile, Big Guy.” Captivated by her beautiful face reflected back in the screen, I don’t catch her words in time to comply before the screen clicks. I step closer.
I clear my throat wanting to curse my luck. It’s like the universe knew my type exactly, and dropped her in my lap, about 20 years too young, just to drive me mad. And nothing against skinny women -I’m really not picky, and I’m well aware that the personality makes or breaks someone’s attractiveness - but big girls have always been
my thing. Maddie just happens to be both curvy and tiny. Something I didn’t know I wanted until now.
“Get in the car, Maddie.” “Yes, sir.”
My body only cares about the fact that she seems to have everything I’d look for in my perfect match. If I were looking for such a thing. Which I’m not. But if I were, she’s exactly what I’d want. She’s smart, witty, a little shy, the flawless mixture of innocent and sexy. And my inner neanderthal likes the sadness in her eyes. It’s fucked up, I’m well aware of that, but I like
feeling needed. And I haven’t felt emotionally needed in a long, long time.
“You sounded so grumpy when you said that. It was cute.” I narrow my eyes. “First, I’m too nice and now I’m cute?” She nods. “Time for me to set you straight, Baby Girl.” Even in the darkness, I can see her green eyes sparkle as she blinks at me, “And just how are you gonna do that?” “Like this.” Keeping my foot on the brake, I close the space between us and seal my lips to hers. And she moans. The little sex pot fucking moans.
She meets me just as fiercely. Her tiny sounds of pleasure ricocheting around in my head. I swipe my tongue into her mouth, and her lips close around it. Sucking. My body freezes and the blood in my veins turns molten. Jezzzzus.
Then she shocks the shit out of me by stepping forward and wrapping her arms around me in a hug. A fucking hug.
I don’t… I don’t remember the last time someone hugged me.
The second I pull her closer, she relaxes into me. As though this is normal, and not the most spectacular thing that I’ve experienced in years.
I squeeze her tighter.
It feels so natural to help her. To walk with her around to our spots. To pull out the stool for her.
Together, we take our first bites. And my soul leaves my body.
“This is the best thing I’ve ever eaten.”
I wait for the angel on my shoulder to tell me to keep my pants on and to walk out the front door. But the devil on my other shoulder has the angel tied up and gagged. So, pants off it is.
My cock isn’t uncomfortably long, but I’ve learned that preparation is sometimes necessary for my thickness. “Holy shit!” Maddie gasps as her grip tries to tighten.
