1 " Hey, man, there are few things more important in life than sleep and sex. Nikki here is allowing me both. Boom. Best friends. "
― A.L. Jackson , Follow Me Back (Fight for Me, #2)
2 " Fear never negates hope. It just means we want something badly enough that we’re terrified we might not get to keep it. "
3 " no matter what you see or what you deal with . . . don’t lose you. Don’t let it break you. And don’t ever, ever give up on hope. Because it’s always there, no matter how dismal things might seem. "
4 " Don’t worry. My heart is always hung on hope. "
5 " Go out with me.” His gravelly voice echoed through the line … “Go out with me, Hope. Just dinner. Because I can’t fucking stop thinking about you. Couldn’t after I saw you the first time at Olive’s on Friday night. It only got worse after I saw you here Monday morning. I don’t know what it is about you…but there’s something that makes me want to figure it out. "
6 " If I sleep with you, there won’t be any going back for me, Kale Bryant. Don’t make me fall in love with you. I don’t think either of us are ready for that. "
7 " I don’t know how to stop thinking about you … But as hard as I try to stop it, colliding with you feels unavoidable. "
8 " My insides fluttered when he began to stalk toward me.Potent.Powerful.Persuasive.That was what the man looked like. Persuasion and dominance and sex.Most of all, right then, he looked like he was mine. "
9 " What are we doing, Kale?”His fingertips fluttered across my cheek. “I think we’re needing each other.” He blinked. “I had no idea I needed anyone or anything until I met you. "
10 " He looked like discord. Chaos with an easy, arrogant smile. A perfect, controlled disorder. I shook my head to break myself from the stupor. What he looked like was a damned broken heart. "
11 " Right, Mommy? That’s what brave is, being scared and doing what’s right anyway because you love someone so, so much? "
12 " At Evan’s door, I paused. Kale lay on the hard floor next to the bed, a pillow from the couch under his head and a tiny throw barely covering his torso, still in his shirt and jeans. His arm was slung up onto Evan’s bed, his palm resting across my son’s heart. "
13 " Go for it. But if you hurt her? I’ll gladly cut off your dick. "
14 " So sweet and wet and hot. Your pussy is perfection. Want to live in it. Fuck you day and night. "
15 " What does that mean?” “It means I don’t get close to women, Hope, and the only thing I fucking want right now is to get closer to you. "
16 " Take care of yourself. Let yourself off the hook once in a while. You deserve to be happy. "
17 " But fear is holding some of that back.” And I knew it then. He could see straight through me. “There are some things important enough they are worthy of that fear,” I told him, not sure why. "
18 " I’m so sorry, Evan,” I whimpered, clutching him tighter. “I’m so sorry.” Sorry he had to see that. Go through it. Feel it. My little man. My savior. My protector. "
19 " My life’s complicated, Kale.”“And I’m offering you a night away from it. Don’t you at least deserve that? "
20 " This girl’s shot me down at every turn and, each time, I got up for another round. Something feeling like maybe she needed me to fight for her. "
