Jay Crownover QUOTES

1 " You know home isn’t really about what color your couch is or what you hang on the wall... Home is about knowing you are in the right place with the right people. "

― Jay Crownover , Salvaged (Saints of Denver, #4)

2 " You’re the best bad decision I ever made, and you are, by far, my favorite story to tell. "

― Jay Crownover , Charged (Saints of Denver, #2)

3 " Sometimes, things need to change, because there just isn't any way for them to stay the same. "

― Jay Crownover , Jet (Marked Men, #2)

4 " No one had ever given me any idea on how to handle it when the right one came along, but you weren't the right one for him. "

― Jay Crownover , Riveted (Saints of Denver, #3)

5 " No, it really isn't, but trust me, getting divorced and having to start over is the least in life that isn't fair. I had to watch the parents of a way too young girl realize that their daughter died for no other reason than people can't figure out how to be nice to each other. It isn't that hard, just be nice and people might not have to suffer needlessly, but that isn't the world we live in, so young girls die. That isn't fair, Mom. People falling out of love is vicious and it sucks, but there are far worse things you could be going through. I know that sounds harsh but it's very true. "

― Jay Crownover , Nash (Marked Men, #4)

6 " It was hard to trust someone enough to let them all the way in when I didn't think they deserved to be there. -Cora "

― Jay Crownover , Rome (Marked Men, #3)

7 " My home is a little more complicated than coordinates on a map. "

― Jay Crownover , Rowdy (Marked Men, #5)

8 " Love is never perfect, big brother. It's what you make of the imperfections in it that makes the ride worthwhile. "

― Jay Crownover , Rome (Marked Men, #3)

9 " She was going to be my downfall. She was going to be my corruption and my vice. She was going to be my addiction and my compulsion and I was still going to fall headlong into her knowing the landing was going to be rough for both of us. "

― Jay Crownover , Better When He's Brave (Welcome to the Point, #3)

10 " No matter how the road winds and turns, as long as you are there at the end of it I’ll be happy, Rowdy. "

― Jay Crownover

11 " I've been fighting every single day of my life. Sometimes I think all I have left is fight. "

― Jay Crownover , Better When He's Brave (Welcome to the Point, #3)

12 " Love is friendship that has caught fire. It is quiet understanding, mutual confidence, sharing and forgiving. It is loyalty through good and bad times. It settles for less than perfection and makes allowances for human weaknesses. "

― Jay Crownover , Built (Saints of Denver, #1)

13 " You must live in the present, launch yourself on every wave, find your eternity in each moment. Fools stand on their island of opportunities and look toward another land. There is no other land; there is no other life but this. —Henry David Thoreau "

― Jay Crownover , Asa (Marked Men, #6)

14 " You will NEVER be just a guy, Rome. You're the best brother a guy could have. You're a fucking hero. No one, and I mean no one, has ever had my back the way you have. You are an incredible person, be it in the army fighting a war or sitting on the goddamn couch watching the game. Don't forget it. "

― Jay Crownover , Rome (Marked Men, #3)

15 " Rule, she's always been an Archer. Putting a rock on her finger is just a formality. No one doubts how much you care about her, or that you are committed to her and her alone. Screw her obnoxious family and whatever headache Mom and Dad might want to cause, your want her forever, ask her. "

― Jay Crownover , Rome (Marked Men, #3)

16 " I don't have a ring. I don't have a pretty speech prepared. All I know is that I love you more than life itself and I want every single person in this room to know that I want you forever, Shaw Landon. I love you. Marry me."

Typical Rule: he didn't ask, he just told her.

"Be an Archer. Be mine. "

― Jay Crownover , Rome (Marked Men, #3)

17 " Rome Archer, if you don't wake up right this second so I can tell you that I love you, I swear I'm going to name this baby something ridiculous like Daffodil or Rover and I'm going to let your brother be in charge of haircuts until he or she is old enough to complain. "

― Jay Crownover , Rome (Marked Men, #3)

18 " I call my dad 'Admiral Ass Hat,' he doesn't really think it's funny. "

― Jay Crownover , Rome (Marked Men, #3)

19 " We love you, dude, but I swear to God, if you put me in a position where I have to pick between you and Shaw, she is going to win every single time, hands down. Know it. "

― Jay Crownover , Rome (Marked Men, #3)

20 " The knuckles of his hand that had Shaw's name inked across them caught my eye. I pointed to them.

"You have her with you forever already, a ring isn't going to make that much of a difference, bro."

"I need to wait until she's done with school next semester. She needs to graduate and focus on starting med school. I don't want her worrying about me or a wedding while she does it. Honestly, talking to Lando made me start thinking about it. God, forbid something happened to me or to her. I want everyone on the planet to know how much she means to me. How she changed my life and made me want to be a better man for her and her alone. "
