1 " There was only the clear confidence that I'd found the man I wanted to annoy for the rest of my days. "
― Charlie Novak , Charisma Check (Roll for Love, #2)
2 " The man’s voice was soft, but his accent was sharp enough to cut glass, and his laughter washed over me like sunshine. I was intrigued and casually scooted my chair a tiny bit closer because something was drawing me to him. "
― Charlie Novak , Extra Time (Off the Pitch, #2)
3 " I kissed him gently, not wanting to scare him. A soft press of my lips on his, nothing more. Time slowed to a crawl. Then Christian moved his lips, pressing harder, a gentle demand for more. "

4 " You… you’re everything I look for too. "
― Charlie Novak
5 " You. You’re what I look for, Christian. "
6 " Every time he told me that he really liked me, my face turned neon pink, and my whole body glowed with happiness. I never thought I’d feel like this again. I never thought I’d meet anyone who could make me feel like this. I couldn’t remember the last time I’d felt this happy. All I knew was that it had been a while. "
7 " But I hadn’t told him about the way my heart raced every time I saw him, or the way I smiled every time I thought about him, or that I’d had to stop for a moment yesterday because I’d thought of something that would make him laugh, and I’d been overwhelmed with the desire to tell him right then. "

8 " That’s what dildos are for. "
9 " I’ll always remember everything about you,” Hugo said. The smile on his face filled my heart with joy. How had I found someone so utterly perfect? "

10 " Sometimes, I wondered if I’d ever meet someone else; someone I could share my whole life with. "
11 " The man looked over at me, an inquisitive look on his face. There were freckles dusting his nose, and his eyes were an intense green, the colour of holly leaves. I couldn’t stop myself from staring because he was the most beautiful person I’d ever seen. "
12 " Kit’s smile was warm, and something lurched in my stomach, sending little shivers up my spine, which was ridiculous because I’d only just met the man. "
13 " Kit laughed, shaking his head, and it was such a wonderful sound that it made little waves of happiness curl through me just hearing it. It made me want to laugh too. "
14 " He had the most adorable dimples when he smiled and soft pink lips that I wanted to lean over and kiss, even though I hardly knew him. "
15 " I was struck by the sudden urge to give him a hug, to let him know that it would be alright. "
16 " I wondered if Hugo was smiling. I hoped he was because he had such a beautiful one. It was one of the things I’d noticed about him the other day – how warm and genuine his smile seemed to be – and for some reason I wanted to see him smiling all the time. "
17 " I laughed, even though I hadn’t meant to. It was the first time I’d really voiced my fears and part of me had been expecting him to tell me it would be fine, but this felt so much more genuine. I don’t know why I was surprised. Kit seemed like the sort of person who’d always tell you what he was thinking. I loved that. "
18 " I smiled at him, watching him relax. He was so beautiful and unguarded, and it made my stomach feel like it was being tied into knots. What was it about Kit that had me feeling so completely at ease but also more nervous than ever before? "
19 " He reached out and pulled me into a hug. I clung to him as he wrapped his arm around me, drawing me into his side. His body was a solid, comforting presence and he smelled faintly of sandalwood and vanilla, two things I’d always adored. "
20 " There was a strange warmth burning inside me, and it was a feeling I couldn’t identify. All I knew was that it had something to do with Hugo… and I wanted to keep feeling it for as long as possible. "
