1 " Hailey shook her head. “Nobody cares about the meatloaf, Paige. Mitch is in town for six weeks and you could do with a little less tension. Don’t want you killing anybody.“So what you’re saying is that I have to have sex with Mitch to save lives?” “Absolutely. "
― Shannon Stacey , All He Ever Needed (Kowalski Family, #4)
2 " You. I want you and I don’t want to be a luxury. I want you to need me. I want you to not be able to concentrate because you’re thinking about me. I want you to reach for your phone because you thought of something you have to share with me. I want you to not even be able to breathe at the thought of never seeing me again, because that’s how I feel about you, Paige. I want to be a necessity. "
3 " Honey, love isn't like rappeling into a cave, where you can control your descent and how deep you go. It's just falling into the hole. "
4 " I do need you, because I love you and you make me happy. I can live my life just fine on my own, but it will be so much better if I live it with you. "
5 " The women in this town are going to be so disappointed you're off the market.""There are other women in this town besides you? "
6 " You Kowalskis have always gotten a little carried away.” This wasn’t Mitch’s first traffic stop. He knew it was best to be polite to the cop, who was just doing his job, and neither offer lame excuses nor get belligerent. But Durgin was too much. “We got carried away sometimes when we were young and stupid. Most kids do. But I’ll be damned if I’m going to sit here and take shit from you because you lost control of the new cruiser and rolled it into a ball. I’m not a kid anymore and I’m not going to be spoken to like one. Write me the damn ticket and get on with your life. "
7 " And a six-week cap on the relationship was perfect. He could enjoy the getting-to-know-you sex and the know-you-well-enough-to-push-the-right-buttons sex, but be gone before the I’m-falling-in-love-with-you-Mitch sex. "
