Spiralling Skyward: Falling (Contradictions, #1) QUOTES

1 " Luke passed him a glass of the red wine we’d been drinking. Liam looked at it but didn’t take it from him. “What the fuck is that?” he asked him. “Wine.” “Do I look like I’ve grown a vagina? "

2 " That’s a thirty quid bottle of wine. You drink wine, I’ve seen you drink wine.” “There are two bottles of hundred quid whiskey out there, go and open one of those. I don’t want your poxy wine.” He glanced at the glass in my hand. “Although, I’m sure the wine is very nice. "

3 " I love you enough that I stepped aside for the sake of your baby. I didn’t want to be the reason your child didn’t have a father around. I didn’t want to be the other woman. I didn’t want to be like her, my mother, and I didn’t want your baby to be me, to grow up with all of the issues that I have. "

4 " Saying ‘I love you’ is putting it in the plainest, simplest terms and doesn’t even begin to cover what I actually feel for you. All of me, every aspect of my life, every beat of my heart and every breath from my lungs. Each and every thought that crosses my mind. . . All of everything about me, will now become all about you. "

5 " Will you say yes, pretty girl? Will you let me make you my wife? "

― Lesley Jones , Spiralling Skyward: Falling (Contradictions, #1)

6 " Yes. Yes, Liam Delaney, I’ll be your Mrs Del, your Mrs Pretty Girl. I’ll be your wife. And yes to telling each other everything. No more lies. No more not mentioning things, and no more hiding our own feelings from each other. Life’s too short, let’s just live it and see where it takes us. "

7 " Hey, Lee, you finally grew some and went and got your girl, hey?” “Not sure if I’m fully forgiven yet, but I did a lot of begging last night.” “Yeah, I bet. Always did have a reputation for being a dog, so begging would be right up your street. "

8 " I might not be the most sensitive type of bloke, but even I knew that asking one woman to be my wife whilst still married to another was a bit of a dick move. "

9 " Sarah had stayed over with me at the flat the night before, and I’d kept her awake until past midnight, teaching her how to give the perfect blow job. For over a month now, I’d convinced her she wasn’t very good and needed more practice, daily if necessary. I couldn’t believe she hadn’t caught on, and I knew was gonna be in trouble when she did, but until then, I’d take whatever she offered. "

10 " I wanted to ask your grandad first, I wanted to talk to Luke. I wanted it to be so much more romantic than us standing in a bathroom, you naked and me wearing your knickers with Ms Bitch written across my arse, but I’ve never seen you look more beautiful than you do right now. "

11 " I love you, Sarah Kathleen Carter. In five short months you’ve changed everything about my life. What started as a quick trip overseas has led to my wanting to make a permanent home here. A home with you. Even though you wake up miserable every morning and look at me like you wanna nail my balls to the floor and step on my dick for at least one week every month, I want you and all of your shitty attitude to be a permanent part of my life. I want you, me, us, and lots of little versions of us forever. I want to marry you, pretty girl, please would you be my wife? "

12 " I held on to both sides of her face and kissed her with everything I had. I focused solely on that kiss as she pushed and circled her hot pussy against me. I kissed her until my head swam, stars exploded marring my vision, and my lungs barely functioned. I kissed her until I was absolutely sure, dead-set certain that she understood every word that kiss had to say. I kissed her until there was no doubt, not one shred, that I’d just given and received the best fucking kiss of my life. I kissed her until her eyes opened and looked into mine. I knew . . . I knew that no one but me would ever kiss her that way again. It terrified me. "

13 " His kisses alone were orgasmic. Never in my life had I been kissed the way he kissed me, and I knew for sure that I’d never returned a kiss with so much want, need, and passion. "

― Lesley Jones , Spiralling Skyward: Falling (Contradictions, #1)

14 " But his kisses, oh, fuck me, his kisses. They turned me into a puddle of lust, want, and need. "

― Lesley Jones , Spiralling Skyward: Falling (Contradictions, #1)

15 " If he kissed me the way he just had again tonight, I would undoubtedly give in to my baser needs and ride him like Woody rode Bullseye. "

16 " Who’s too skinny?” Grandad strode across the lawn towards us as he dried his hands on a small towel. “Not you, that’s for sure,” Nan called out. “Well that’s coz you keep feeding me, woman.” “It’s nothing to do with what I feed ya. It’s the beer you drink in that shed every day and the whiskey you sip in front of the telly every night. Not to mention the amount of liquorice allsorts you polish off every week.” “I’m eighty years old, Maisie, I’ve worked hard all my life and raised these two fine people. I think that entitles me to drink, sip, and polish off whatever I bloody well like, which includes you when the mood takes me. So there’ll be no chasing after younger men, there’d only leave ya disappointed anyway. You’ve had sixty years of the best, there’s no going back from that.” He looked at me and winked. "

17 " Can the pair of you stop talking about geriatric sex for Christ’s sake? You should be done with all that by now.” “You jealous, son? Is your ol’ grandad getting it more than you?” Luke shook his head and headed back into the house. “C’mon, Winston, let’s go and get drunk.” The dog followed Luke. "

18 " You need to stop. That is so hot, you’re making me wet.” “Eww, are you wearing knickers under there?” “Nope. So expect a snail trail to be left behind when you finally peel me off these sheets.” “You are seriously gross. "

19 " She’s as tough as nails and as fragile as a butterfly’s wing, all at the same time. "

20 " My phone buzzed and I pulled it from my pocket. Luke: 10 minutes, fucker, then I’ll be tying your dick to the exhaust of my car and dragging that suntanned Aussie arse thru the streets back to my house. LEAVE MY SISTER ALONE. Followed by Luke: NOW!!! "
