1 " Dealing with the bullshit is how you know it’s real … It’s easy to love someone when times are good. Real love is about holding on to one another when times aren’t. "

2 " Do you have any idea how long I’d been waiting for you to notice me? How many times I’d walked into the bar and wished you’d finally just see me? Then you did and I was so happy. And then you forgot. "
3 " Can I tell you a secret?” He leaned down and whispered. “I have a crush on you.”I smiled. “It’s about time. "
4 " It was just her and me. Just us.She wouldn’t find another man to make her dreams come true.I was her dream and she was mine. "
5 " How had I missed this? How had I missed her? "
6 " I think what’s important is finding a person who makes you better. And someone you can trust with your heart. And, Jackson? I trust you with mine. "
7 " Fuck How was I supposed to resist her.Never had a woman stared at me the way Willa did. She looked at me like I was a king. The adoration in her eyes had nothing to do with my face or body. She saw straight to my center, and it was the sexiest thing I’d ever seen. "
8 " I’d been a blind asshole. All this time she’d been right there. If not for Thea’s drawing, I may have never opened my eyes.They were open now. "
9 " I’d known Willa for years. I’d seen her face. Yet still, I’d missed her.How had I missed her?“You weren’t paying attention.”My head whipped around as Hazel stepped through the lodge’s doors and to my side.“I didn’t mean to say that out loud,” I said. "
10 " You’ve built me up in your head into something great. I’m not.”Why couldn’t he see what I saw? He was a wonderful man with flaws. I wasn’t blind. He wasn’t perfect.But he was perfect for me. "
11 " I’m not much of a fighter and I rarely stand up for myself. But I’m standing up for you. I’ll fight for you.” Her hands slid up to my cheeks, pushing me back so she could look me in the eye. “I’m not letting you go. And I’ll never leave you behind. "
12 " It’s easy to love someone when times are good. Real love is about holding on to one another when times aren’t. "
