1 " I’ve got you, baby. I swear you’re safe with me. "
― Devney Perry , The Coppersmith Farmhouse (Jamison Valley, #1)
2 " You don’t get to order me around and make the decision we’re dating without my agreement. That’s absurd. It doesn’t work like that.”“It does. And we are. Exclusively, Georgia,” he said, glancing over at me as he stressed his last point. "
3 " Was she trying to set me up with Jackass Jess? Yes. "
4 " I’d appreciate it if you wouldn’t tell people we’re an item. It was nice of you to take me to dinner and I had a good time, but I don’t think we’ll be dating.”“Do you find me attractive?”“Uh…”“I thought so,” he said. “Already told you tonight you were beautiful. So since we’ve got some major fucking chemistry and we get along, how about we cut the bullshit and see where this goes? "
5 " He’s like a prince from my movies. Can Jess be your boyfriend, Mommy? "
6 " Never in my life had I felt such an intense attraction to a man. His hotness did things to me. It made my brain misfire and my body want things it hadn’t craved in years. And I needed my brain fully engaged when he was around. I didn’t like him, but more importantly, I didn’t trust him. I couldn’t be stupid enough to fall for his perfectly handsome face and amazingly sculpted body. "
7 " I was hot for the town sheriff. I was hot for a man who I absolutely did not like one bit. "
8 " Don’t want people around town thinking we’re just friends or we’re just fooling around. We’re gonna see where this goes.”“We’ve had one kind-of-date, Jess. And I wouldn’t call us friends.”“Because we’re not just friends.”“I’m not dating you. I don’t even like you. Find someone else to keep you company at the café.”“You like me. Can see it in your eyes when you look at me.”“Physically, yes. But personally, you’re a jackass.”He yanked the truck to the side of the road.“What are you--” I started but Jess reached across the cab, grabbed me at the back of the neck and slammed his mouth down on mine. "
9 " New town. New house. New car. New job.New life.That’s what Ben had asked me to do. To start a new life for my four-year-old daughter, Rowen, and a new life for me.And as much as I would have liked to explain that a major life change was completely unnecessary, it was tough to argue with a dead man.So here we were in Prescott, Montana. Starting a new life. "
