I chugged half of the OJ down before commenting You’re serious about this. She cocked an eyebrow. This is where I don’t say ‘as a heart attack,’ right?
I didn't know much about Lucas beyond his striking good looks and his ability to beat the shit out of someone.
I do, absolutely, want to kiss you right now. Badly.
I kept my eyes open on the ride home. Peeking over Lucas's shoulder, i watched the scenery fly by-and it was exhilarating, not frightening. I trusted him. I had since that first night, when i let him...
I knew Chaz was a good guy, if misguided and gullible. He’d swallowed Buck’s side of what happened between us, had argued with Erin that maybe I was drunk that night and didn’t remember everything cle...
I stare into his eyes, a slight smile pulling at my mouth, and I see myself as he sees me. I feel loved, and scared, and hopeful. I feel found. And I think, Here is the beginning of my faith. Here is...
I thought about texting Lucas, but what would i say? That i'd tossed and turned all night, thinking of his hands on me?
I told him that bed-and-breakfasts have ginormous whirlpool tubs, and that I’d be willing to do unspeakably sinful things to himin it.A strangled sound came from one of the two nerdy guys behind us in...
I was long done ignoring offhand sexism. Excusing minor asshattery too often led to more deliberate misogyny and sometimes the kind of abuse Mindi and Jacqueline had suffered.
I was more scared than I let on, but that was nothing new.
I was scared to death of who I really was and what I really wanted. And somehow he knew. He’d always known.
I wish I could read her mind. She’s a pensive, deep-thinking girl, and it’s not unusual for her to stare into space, lost in her thoughts. Normally, I’m fascinated when she does this – the shifting em...
I’ve changed since I’ve known you. Not because you made me into someone else—but because you showed me a path I’d never paid attention to, and I chose to follow it.- Reid AlexanderWhen you finally fig...
I’ve heard people say My heart stopped—which of course isn’t possible unless you’ve just died—but I now understood where the perception might originate.
Jacqueline,If you want to do, then do. What’s stopping you?So I’m kind, huh? Never heard that before. People usually think I’m a pretentious a-hole. I must admit, I tend to encourage that estimation....
Look at me, Emma.Her eyes are full, the lids heavy. Graham, she breathes. I need you to hear me. Cradling her head in my hands, thumbs sweeping her tears away, I stare into her eyes. I belong to you....
No matter what grief or loss takes place, most of life flows on all around us, as though nothing's changed. At some point in our sorrow, we each make a choice to sink or swim. There's no alternative.
Take this. When you’re ready, I want to put it on your finger. I want you to meet my son. I want you to let me bring you into my world – because I need you there. The media crap is just PR. Piece of c...
Then she told me her name, which I forgot immediately, and launched into a monologue of enmity concerning the girl who'd bumped her. I didn't know either of them, and I couldn't have cared less about...
