" Crazy thing was, I damn near cried when she’d looked right at me and said it took courage to quit, that I’d done something right. In that moment, I’d felt seen. I’d felt understood. I’d never had that from anyone. That a whip-smart, small but mighty woman like Parker saw something worthy in me was a gift I didn’t know I needed until she gave it to me. A gift like that made a man crave more. "
