“Special is the last word I would use to describe you.” It feels far too generic for someone like her.
“I can assure you that I will always have Iris’s best interests at heart.” Even if they jeopardize mine.
Being near her is the furthest thing from uncomfortable.
“I’m never happy.” Except for rare occasions. All of which Iris is a part of.
“I’m not confused. Far from it, actually. I know exactly what I want.” “And what is that?” “You.”
“Stop fighting and give me ten minutes.” “You don’t deserve ten seconds, let alone ten minutes of my time.” “How about ten words then?” I laugh. “I’d like to see you try.” “I am falling in love with you, Iris Elizabeth Kane.”
“I could spend the rest of forever with you and it still wouldn’t be enough time to finish everything I have planned for us.”
“I’ll give you anything you want—anything at all—so long as you give me a chance to make you as happy as you make me. A dog. A family. A home. I want it all. These are my terms and conditions, take it or leave it because I’m not open to negotiations.”
Marriage isn’t easy but neither is life, and I can’t imagine doing either without Declan. Luckily, I don’t have to.
“Because there is nothing I want more than to turn a house into a home with you.”
