Jessica *The Lovely Books*

“Like a garden rose she has the delicate fragility of velvety petals, soft to touch, layered, but easily plucked. Yet, I need to be careful because one wrong move and the sharp thorns that protect the truth of her have the ability to make a person bleed, to fucking shred the skin. Like she’s shredding mine now.”
― Bea Paige, Steps

“But sometimes people need to be believed in more than they need to be told what is so.”
― Adriana Mather, How to Hang a Witch

“Everybody loves a love song. Especially when they can’t feel the pain lingering between the lines.”
― Kelsey Kingsley, Tell Me Goodnight

“The world falls away, and we are no longer a prince and his harshest critic, but two flawed human beings needing to be understood.”
― Melanie Summers, The Royal Treatment
