LOVE!!!! --> "I get you're scared and I know why… I haven't earned it, baby. I don't even fuckin' deserve it. But I gotta ask you to trust me anyways."

Awww, I love Benny!!! --> "You got nothin' but good comin' your way, Frankie, I can promise you that," he said softly.

I started this last night and I'm in LOOOOVE so far. So, today is officially my KA Reading Day. Let my marathon read of The Promise begin! :D

Can I just highlight the whole book??? That's allowed, right???

HA!!! So much Alpha!! :D
"So, what you're saying is, you actually HAVE kidnapped me."
"You wanna look at it that way, go ahead."

LMAO!!! --> "You want me to pick up anything?"
"A trashy romance novel. I don't care which one, but the less the guy on the cover is wearing, the better. Tattoos are a plus. Leather is another plus. And if there's an indication that he's a shifter, buy the whole series."

SQUEEEEEEE!!!! LOVE THIS!!!
(PS - this is one of those books where you read for 5 mins then look down and realize you're at the same percent you were at 5 mins before lol)

OHHHH THE FEELS ARE STRONG WITH THIS ONE!!!! :-)

SQUEEE!!!! 2% in and I'm already in LOVE!!!
"I knew Benito Bianchi. I knew all the Bianchis. They were not patient by nature. And Benny was a male Bianchi so his spam of patience was akin to the attention of a gnat. Therefore, I could wait him out, no sweat."

Just cuz ;)

Wow!! What a story! Review to come :)

omgomgomgggg

Gahhhh my heart cant take this!!!!

**CRYING**
"Don't." The softest whisper.
My eyes swing to the door.
He never left.
"I'm not going anywhere," he says. "I told you. Whatever happens, we face it together."

"He watches me… like he's batting his own army of flashbacks."

"I wish I could hold your hand outside this room, go for a walk, sit on a patio, watch the world go by."

"I return to my office and shut the door. I want to keep the smell of him from escaping. It's barely noticeable, the kind of thing only a lover would recognize, sparking associations that set the pulse racing."

"You okay?" He rubs my feet.
Am I okay?
I start laughing, a little hysterically. I don't think he has the slightest idea what it's taken for me to get here. I've crossed oceans and countries and continents. That was the easy part. But sitting here before Troy Heathgate now, I'm teetering on a knife's edge between honour and disgrace."

"Don't cry." He lifts my chin. "I can't stand it when you cry."

"My mind keeps going back to Troy.
Somewhere in the fabric of all these years, our lives got tangled, like unruly threads pulling and snagging into impossible knots."

Holy shit!!

"You want me to choose?"
"It's not about what I want. Or what anyone else wants. What do YOU want, Shayda?"

I love the writing here!
"She pulls me back to the dance floor. It's fun until I notice Troy Heathgate's eyes on me. Every time I turn around, there he is, following me with his brooding eyes. Having shots at the bar, looking at me. Listening to his dates, looking at me. Toying with his drink, looking at me. Like a hunter stalking his prey. Watching and waiting."

Wow!! What an intense first chapter!!
"Are you happy, Shayda?"
A second. That's all it takes. A single beat of hesitation on my part…
Here I am, ten years later. Troy Heathgate it at my door.
Let me in.

LOL "I liked being sixteen..."
"Why? Because you could only be tried as a minor?"

Haha this is between Ben + his mom...
"I've watched you chasing girls since you were six years old, so don't pretend otherwise... This one's different, though, isn't she?"
"No." The bells. The fucking church bells are ringing in her head. I know it.

Loving this! --> "Look... Can we start over? What do you need me to do? Cry? Grovel? I'll do whatever you want. Please."

Just cuz ;)

Teeheeee!!!! --> "I see the shift in her, the moment when she realized that, though she'd prefer to castrate the entire male species right now, she can't ignore her attraction to me."

"I've made so many wrong turns along the way, I don't know how many right ones it will take to course-correct."
