1 " My heart is hoping for something I didn’t plan. I never wanted to fall for Alistair any more than Giselle wanted to fall for the prince, but we can’t help who we love. "
― Sara Cate , Gravity (Wilde Boys, #1)
2 " You make me feel good, Zara, and I haven’t felt good in a long fucking time. When I’m with you, it hurts a little less. It doesn’t go away, but I don’t hate life so much when you look at me like you’re looking at me right now, "
3 " Am I allowed to be happy, Zara? Or is this my punishment? Loving you if I can’t have you. "
4 " It’s ironic that you’re here to make me better when the things I want to do to you are the worst things I’ve ever wanted to do. "
5 " Thanks, Dad,” I mumble into my coffee and he snaps his head in my direction. I wait quietly for his reaction to see if he’s going to be legit offended or find it funny, but he just bites his lip and stalks toward me slowly, pinning me against the counter. Putting his hands on either side of me on the counter, he leans his face down to my ear. “If we’re going to play that game, get it right. It’s Daddy to you. "
6 " Well, then just try to keep your clothes on when my mother serves the turkey. "
7 " If we have not found the heaven within, we have not found the heaven without. "
8 " For the first time in my life, I don’t feel like a minor character in my own story. "
9 " When did this happen? I never saw this coming,” she whispers. I want to tell her that this happened a long time ago for me. Four years to be exact. The first time she stepped foot on my island, I was ruined. I made a promise to myself that I would never touch her because I knew then she’d fucking ruin me. She would be my downfall, my biggest distraction, and I was right. "
10 " Your body is not your power, Zara, and those men don’t see you. I see you, and maybe I shouldn’t say that because you’re with Nash, but I’m saying it anyway. You’re a tough girl, and your body is beautiful, but if you think it’s the most powerful thing you have, you’re selling yourself short. "
11 " He’s unapologetically brutal in his truths, and I should hate him for it, but I find myself wanting to just be around him. For some reason, I keep putting myself in front of that bullet. "
12 " He pushes me, protects me, makes me feel safe, and I am tired of fighting against something I want so much. Call it daddy issues, I don’t care. I can’t walk away from him. I just can’t. "
