21 " That’s why you always check the fine print. "
― Lauren Asher , The Fine Print (Dreamland Billionaires, #1)
22 " One man’s accident is another man’s fate. "
23 " I turned a rich god into a beggar. "
24 " Like a diamond built under pressure, with flaws that make us stunning. "
25 " You better have a massive dick to back up that attitude or else people will be mighty disappointed.” “Care to bring out a ruler and test your theory?” “I left my magnifying glass at home, so maybe tomorrow. "
26 " I thought you didn’t care?” “Hmm. Maybe I found some fucks to give after all. "
27 " One second he’s scowling at me and the next his lips are slamming into mine. "
28 " He’s the Devil, Zahra. Well, that explains why Eve fell for his tricks. If the Devil looked half as good as Rowan, I’d eat the damn apple, too. Screw the consequences. "
29 " Your file never mentioned an issue with talking back to authority figures.” I perk up. “You’ve been reading up on me.” “I tend to research my investments. "
30 " She feels perfect in my arms, and I’m tempted to keep her tucked beside me where I can protect her from all the darkness in the world, including myself. "
31 " We aren’t an investment, my feminist brain calls out. But the big grumpy man spends his time researching me, the hopeless romantic calls out in rebuttal. "
32 " My little knights, Love with all your heart and show kindness in all your actions. "
33 " A kiss for a secret.” “I’ve never heard of this game.” I smirk. “That’s because it’s exclusively ours. "
34 " But I want to risk falling in love anyway in the hopes that we create something beautiful together. Like a diamond built under pressure, with flaws that make us stunning. I want that kind of love with Rowan. The one that is as passionate as a wildfire and as long-lasting as a gem. "
35 " I want to see myself like she sees me. Because in her eyes, I don’t feel like I’m a man carrying an entire mountain of expectations on my shoulders. I’m just Rowan, the kind of guy who sits on a floor in a pair of expensive slacks, eating takeout from a carton and loving every second of it. "
36 " If you don’t believe in yourself, no one will. "
37 " Because if she’s not happy, I’ll ruin whatever stole her smile, myself included. "
38 " Something shifts between us. His eyes darken as they assess me. I’m not sure if he wants to choke me, fire me, or fuck me into submission. "
39 " I find her reactions to the simplest things interesting. What else would make her blush? An image of her red-painted lips wrapped around something incredibly inappropriate flickers through my mind. "
40 " What if jerks are my kink? Well, at least it explains your unhealthy obsession with Mr. Darcy. "
