1 " I want to grow old laughing with you, Harper. I’ve never loved anyone so much in my life. No one can leave me like you do. No woman could or will ever be you. "
― Kate Stewart , The Guy in the Middle (The Underdogs, #3)
2 " You really should do something about that.”I glance back at him.“About what?”“About that thorough fucking you need. "
3 " I just don’t want to cost you something I can’t replace, Lance.”“What if it’s you? "
4 " What if this moment, right here, is the moment that changes your life? "
5 " You are my girl.In every way. Always "
6 " With her, I can exhale. With her, there’s no pretense. She knows exactly who I am and what I’m about. I let her in, and I did it willingly, no resistance. There’s a reason. I’m into her too much to walk away. "
7 " You gave me a love story, a real love story, even if it doesn’t have the ending I was hoping for.”“It doesn’t have to end. "
8 " Make me proud, Lance. Keep fighting.Give me a reason to. "
9 " I open my eyes and find hers trained on the exposed skin at my stomach.“Busted. You know you check me out almost as much as I stare at your ass.”“More ass talk,” she rolls her eyes.“It is one amazing ass you have. "
10 " God, the ways I want you.”“I’m right here.”“You’re not ready for what I want to do to you.”“Make me ready. "
11 " I’ve missed her. The increase in ache lets me know as much. Being this close to her and being unable to touch her hurts a lot worse than the separation. But she’s forbidden, the key to my demise. She could be the one person to ruin every best-laid plan for me. Why can’t I shake what I feel for her and chalk it up to curiosity? Why am I standing so close to the fire doused in kerosene?Because I like her, and I like spending time with her. Because I see a lot of myself in her. Because I feel the need to protect her. Because I love being inside of her just from the taste I’ve acquired so far. I love kissing her, touching her, hearing her moan my name. I’m enamored by her. There’s not one thing about her that grates on me, not even when I’m pissed at her. Nothing about this girl rubs me wrong. It’s just the opposite. "
