1 " Ma’am, what does Justin Timberlake have to do with anything?” “Justin Timberlake is the answer to everything,” Grandma said solemnly. “How do you figure?” After a long pause she answered, “Because he brought sexy back.” “I’m sorry I didn’t take a sick day today. "

4 " You look beautiful,” I said honestly. “Scary beautiful. The type of beautiful that guys are afraid to touch. The type of beautiful that makes men want to risk everything for one taste, one touch, one night. Mix that with your brains, and you’re the epitome of why men fight wars. "

7 " Love is just like magic. It takes special care to discover, but once you have it in the palm of your hand, it spreads throughout your heart and soul. When you find love, you have to hold on to it. You have to promise to never let it go. "

― Rachel Van Dyken , The Dare (The Bet, #3)

8 " You want a guy to fight. You want him to be willing to go to battle for you. Don’t for one second envy a situation you know nothing about. Instead, be at peace with where you’re at in life and know that when the right time comes, it will happen. And when it happens, it’s going to be hard, and you’re going to have to ask yourself if it’s worth it. "

14 " I decided to walk alongside Beth and the annoying little ass. It seemed right that it wouldn't be her walking toward me or me waiting for her, but us traveling on the journey together. Because sometimes, that's how love is. It isn't a man chasing a woman, it isn't a man storming the castle, and it isn't the girl waiting for love to happen. It's two people making a commitment. It's two people realizing that they hold the keys to their own happiness in their own damn hands. The problem? Most people forget that they have the power to live the fairytale. I'd forgotten I had the power, and in the end, I'd been willing to walk away from my future. "

16 " It made me the worst type of man to willingly walk into something, knowing that I wasn’t going to stay. I may not be lying to her about my actions. But I knew that actions helped people form opinions, and my actions would lead her to believe I wanted more than the next few days — and that was the last thing I could afford. A relationship past the few days we had. "

17 " Lavender in the hut, fertility beads under the mattress, a dreamcatcher by the plunge pool, oyster appetizers every afternoon, and a Michael Bolton love mix. "

― Rachel Van Dyken , The Dare (The Bet, #3)

18 " A blessing to the happy couple. Love is the combination of life’s treasured moments tied together in the infinite circle of life. It never ends. It’s a constant reminder when you’re weak and tired, and it never fails. When you want to quit, love continues. When you want to cry, love uplifts, and when you want to run away, love remains. Each of you are wearing a symbol of fertility, but it’s more than that. They are love beads. They bring good luck and favor in your relationship. May you wear them wisely, and may your lives always be filled with love. "

― Rachel Van Dyken , The Dare (The Bet, #3)

20 " You see boring. I see brilliant. You see brown hair. I see brown hair with honey highlights. You see normal pale-pink lips. I see bubble gum.” “Bubble gum?” She smirked. “That’s what you taste like.” I nipped her lower lip with my teeth. “Damn bubblegum that never loses its flavor. "
