LOVED it!! Review to come :)

LOL!! I have to say, this is the first time a girl’s been worried about getting caught in my bedroom. Normally they strut out like they’ve just bagged Brad Pitt.
Hannah takes a breath. “We studied. We watched TV. I went home late. That’s what happened. Got it?”
I fight back laughter. “As you wish.”
“Did you really just Princess Bride me?”
“Did you really just use Princess Bride as a verb?”
She glowers.

“I don’t party during the season, Wellsy. Already told you that.”
He had, but I ain’t really believed him. How is he NOT partying every night? I mean, look at the guy. He’s drop dead gorgeous and more popular than the Bieber. Well, at least before Beebs went off the rails and abandoned his poor monkey in a foreign country.

LOVING THIS BOOK!!
“Sometimes I don’t feel half as cool as people think I am, and I’m pretty sure that if any of them took the time to actually get to know me, they’d probably change their opinion. It’s like the pond I skated on when I was a kid — from a distance, the ice looked so shiny and smooth, until you got close enough to it, and suddenly all the

“Say you’re mine. Right here, right now, you’re mine,” he growled.

LOVING THIS!!!
“Caine, is it?
“Mr. Carraway,” I corrected myself.
She chortled. “You can call him Caine, sweetheart. He’s not a god.”
“Do you think you could tell him that? Because I don’t think he knows."

“I can’t take anymore heartbreak,” I confessed on a broken whisper.
“Then it’s a good thing I’m not going to break your heart."

“Ben stood on the other side of the door… Before I could greet him, he stepped through the open door and crushed me in a hug.

I always expected him to treat me as though I were fragile… but he never did. He pushed me beyond being delicate, into a place I had never thought I would go again. He made me strong. He demanded that I be anything but weak and broken."

“I’d said vows that would last forever. I promised to love one man for the rest of my life. And those were not empty vows. I meant them the day I got married and I still meant them today."

“Don’t ever be sorry… You can cry on me anytime you need to.”
“Why are you so nice to me? You barely know me.”
A soft smile played on his lips, “But I like what I know so far. And I’m excited for what else there is to find out.”

“It didn’t seem fair that I kept living while Grady didn’t. It didn’t seem possible. I kept waiting for Grady to come back. I kept waiting for him to walk in the door and wrap me in his arms and promise me that everything would be alright now. I couldn’t let him go… I loved him too much.”

The feels!!!
“We sobbed together, sharing the anguish and the confusion of what our lives had become… I soaked up their hugs and tears because they were the only other people on this planet that had any idea of what I was going through. They were the only other people that knew how much we’d lost when their daddy died."

LOVED IT!!! Review to come!!!

I LOVE KYAND BARRETT!!!!!!!
That is all.

Can't. Stop. Reading!!!!!

“Are we friends again? he asked, grinning.
I put my hand on his cheek and said very seriously. “We were never just friends.”
He sobered. “I know.”

“I wanted to mark her, claim her, let everyone know that she belonged to me and only me.”

Such beautiful writing!!! Can't wait to read more!!

HOLY HOTNESSSSS!!!!!

“You deserve better than that.” Long sigh. “Better than a fucked-up mess like me.”
Women find confidence attractive. That’s a fact. And I’m no different. But there’s also something about vulnerability, and something about the kind of strength it takes to admit to vulnerability."

LOVING. THIS. BOOK!!!!!!!!!!

Already teared up more times than I can count!
“It’s an impossible thing… I don’t think you do cope. You just survive it, one day at a time.”

Absolutely amazing!! LOVED IT!! Review to come.

This is heart-wrenching!!!
When he feels my tears falling against his chest, he doesn’t do anything to stop them. Instead, he simply holds me with a much tighter grip and presses his cheek against the top of my head…
”I know, baby,” he whispers. “I know."

Woah!!! There is SO much more to this story than meets the eye. LOVE IT!!!

I’ve never felt stronger than I feel when I’m with her. I’ve never felt like I had a purpose like I feel when I’m with her. I think about the first words I said to her when she showed up at my door. “Are you here to save me?”

Loving this!!!! -- “I so badly want to tell her the truth, but I also know that the truth won’t make things any better between us than they are now. The truth makes less sense than the lie, and I don’t even know which one I should go with anymore."

Seriously LOVING this book!!!! And kicking myself for starting it at a time when I couldn't read it in one fell swoop. Can't wait to finish it tomorrow!!

*SOB* Ok, I can honestly say that this is the first time EVER that a book has literally made me completely break down crying (like tears pouring down my face) in the very first chapter. The emotions are just SO powerful!!! LOVE IT!!!

FUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCKKKKKKKK. *GASP*
