Reaching Limits Quotes

“Sounds like a plan.” He smiles back at me before we head inside.”

“The last couple of years have been the hardest of our lives, but somehow you women have made ‘em feel like the best. Bein’ in love with a Carson man ain’t always gonna be easy. But nothin’, and I mean nothin’ is more important than this, right here.” I look among my family, at my beautiful kids and their amazing mama. I look at my brothers and the girls that have come into their lives and made them even better men than they were before. “This family has never been stronger than it is right now. And I’ve never been prouder to be a part of it.” “Whatever it takes.” Maisie steps forward and clinks my glass with hers. “Whatever it takes,” everyone else repeats, knocking glasses together and filling the yard with laughter and smiles. Just how Grandpa would want it.”

“So, not only did I get you on one plane, I’m getting you on two more. That could, quite possibly, be the most romantic thing anyone’s ever done for me.” I guess she’s ignoring the fact I’ve killed for her, or maybe it ain’t as romantic as Wade tells me it is.”

“we don’t need this to be investigated, we need it to be dealt with in a way that ensures it can never happen again.” “So, you're suggesting outlaw justice.” He laughs to himself. I know Savannah’s father is a lawyer, he believes in the justice system.”

“Don’t do that, don’t be all sympathetic. I killed my mom. Did ya hear that? I kill people, Savannah. The only way I know how to fix things is by makin’ people hurt or destroyin’ ‘em.” “So, is that what this is? You're fixing this by making me hurt?” I call him out and watch him get even more frustrated.”

“You want the truth? The real fuckin’ truth?” He speaks tightly against my skin and I feel his heart beating out of his chest against mine. “I’m too scared to love you.” His words shock me as he tightens his fingers. “I’m too scared to keep you. Hell, I'm even too scared to be around ya because bad shit happens to the people that I love.”

“Cole. You need to shower and get to the hospital.” My brother looks worried as I back away from him. “Cole.” He comes at me and slams me up against the door of my truck. “I won’t let you do this to her. You need to get over yourself real fuckin’ quick and go be there for her. She wants you. She needs you and it’s time to face up to that.” He drags me to the side and opens my door. “It’s time to go do the right thing.” He forces me inside.”

“Oh no.” I shake my head at him and laugh. “No. Who the fuck do ya think you are? You’re a nobody in this town. My family has been at war with the Masons for decades. This has nothing to do with your stupid election and your power plays. This is an age-old vendetta and Mason has been out to destroy us from the start. Now, I believe your story about why you chose our town, to be honest with ya, I don’t care if you’re tellin’ the truth or not. What I’m tellin’ you, and you,” I look to Garrett next. “Is that I am gonna find my girl, and then I’m gonna kill Old Man Mason. Fuck your campaign and how it might look. He’s dead.”

“I’m twenty-two years old, for Christ's sake. I shouldn’t be relying on my parents for money. I’ve come to realize that it’s exactly how they wanted things to be. It explains why they never let me get a job like the other kids did when I was at college. They insisted I should focus on my studies when, in reality, they just wanted to control me financially. I’m as much to blame for letting it happen as they are.”
― Emma Creed, Reaching Limits

“I found out that I’d been adopted by the people who I thought were my birth parents a week before I came here to Fork River. The people who had raised me my whole life suddenly felt like strangers, but deep down everything kinda made sense. I’ve never felt like I fitted into the life I was living.”

“I’m happy here, Dan. Really happy,” I tell him for the hundredth time. “No, Savannah, you just weren’t happy at home. You came here to run away from all the shit you discovered, and you just don’t feel ready to face up to it yet. I get that, which is why I think traveling would be good for us. Maybe you were right, maybe I do take life and my career too seriously.”

“man who's got shit to lose rather than one with a vendetta. I know you’re strugglin’—” “You got no idea.” I shove past him and get the hell away from him and this damn yard before I make another person dead.”

― Emma Creed, Reaching Limits

“Because I’m fuckin’ me!” I lose my shit and yell at him. “I’m not the guy who takes a girl travelin’ around the world. I ain’t the guy who’ll take ‘em to a fuckin’ barn dance. Despite what she thinks, I’m not what she needs. I’m too far gone.” My fist slams into the tailgate of my truck and makes a dent.”
