Jessica Hawkins QUOTES

1 " I'd been with boys before; I'd been with boys I'd thought were men. But this was different. David kissed like a man. He tasted, he smelled and he fucked like a man. "

― Jessica Hawkins , Come Undone (The Cityscape, #1)

3 " Olivia, I’ll put on a show in front of your friends, at your work, whenever we’re in public. But I’m growing tired of pretending when we’re alone. Don’t tempt me. "

― Jessica Hawkins , Come Undone (The Cityscape, #1)

5 " What are you thinking?” he asked in a disarmingly gentle tone.
“That the city looks different depending on whom I’m seeing it with.”
He nodded easily, as if this same thought had occurred to him.
“I notice different things,” I continued. “Like with you, I pay more attention to the details of the buildings – the textures, the colors, the people standing in front of them. The reflections are different.”
“Reflections?” he asked quietly.
“They are.” I watched our bodies morph and distort in the window of an empty bank. “You’re there,” I said. “That’s how they’re different. "

7 " I’m not a religious or spiritual man. I am guided solely by my instincts, my gut. And they have led me to you. Without you, I have nothing to believe in. "

― Jessica Hawkins , Come Alive (The Cityscape, #2)

9 " I wouldn’t be allowed in Heaven, but I swear on all that’s holy—I’d rattle the gates until they let me have you. "

― Jessica Hawkins , Violent Triumphs (White Monarch, #3)

11 " You should have the world. Fuck the world - you should have the universe, the sky, and every star in it. "

― Jessica Hawkins , Somebody Else's Sky (Something in the Way, #2)

13 " Seeing David was a full-body experience. I felt heavy and light at the same time. He gives me butterflies, but they aren’t butterflies. They’re bigger and darker and scarier, like crows. They’re dangerous. And did Bill ever give me butterflies? "
