1 " In my hand I hold a small guardian angel figurine set in a smooth, clearstone. It’s beautiful, a promise of love. Of forever. "
― Suzanne Young , A Want So Wicked (A Need So Beautiful, #2)
2 " I’ve missed you so much,” I whisper as he kisses my neck. “Even when I didn’t know you, my soul still missed you. "
3 " In another life we are happy,” I murmur, squeezing my eyes shut. “In another life we grow old together. "
4 " For a brief second I remember everything about who and what I used to be. But most of all, I remember Harlin. And I wonder how he’ll find me if I’m someone else. "
5 " I’ve already loved you twice, "
6 " I’m going to kick his ass for touching you,” he growls. “And for wrecking my bike.”“I’m glad I came first in that sentence.”“Baby, you always come first. "
7 " Harlin needs you,” she whispers. “He loves you too much.”I smile a little. “I know. But I like that about him. "
8 " How do you get places?”“I go around saving attractive girls,” he says. “Obviously. "
9 " It’s nice to meet you, Elise,” he says, a slow, sexy smile pulling at his lips. “I’m Harlin. "
10 " I’ll go to church if you cut my hair tomorrow. But then you have to let me paint your portrait sometime.”“You paint?” I’m honestly surprised.“I haven’t in a long time,” he says. “But I find you inspiring.”“I’d be interested to see your work,” I say. “Wait, you don’t mean nude or anything, right?”He laughs. “No. You’ll be fully clothed. "
11 " Are you sure this is okay?” he asks. “I mean, did your dad really invite the handsome stranger who’s dating his daughter to sleep on the couch?”“I like how you added in the ‘handsome. "
12 " Thought you said this was just dinner?”Abe opens the glass door and holds it for me. As I pass by him, he lowers his head so that his voice is close to my ear. “It’s never just dinner. "
13 " Is it wrong that I’m wishing for congestive heart failure now?” he asks through the food. "
14 " Although it’s always nice to make new friends.”“Who are mutually attracted?”“That’s a bonus. "
15 " How did my relatively inexperienced dating life suddenly become so complicated? "
16 " Other than the fact that I’m entirely sick of Mexican food, Abe might be in there. And he might accidentally-on-purpose drop a plate of enchiladas into Harlin’s lap if we’re together. "
17 " What can I say? You bring out the devil in me.”“That’s not a comforting thing to tell a pastor’s daughter, "
18 " That was a nice save,” Harlin says, sounding amused. “So detailed. Like a nurse.”“Shut up, Harlin,” I say, trying not to smile. “I didn’t hear you offer anything better.”“You sure you didn’t want to tell him we were playing doctor? That might have sounded more believable. "
19 " Because, worst of all, I remember every second of what it was like to lose my life. "
20 " To fall in love with him even though I was right here?”“You’re not really my type, Abe,” I say.“I’m too handsome?” He grins.“Too evil. "
