Melt for You (Slow Burn, #2) QUOTES

Melt for You (Slow Burn, #2) QUOTES

1 " Being nice is the worst thing a woman can be. Nice means you have to swallow your own feelings and focus on everyone else's. Nice means you don't speak up when you're wronged. Nice means being a people pleaser and a conciliator and worrying yourself to death over others' opinions. Nice means never getting what you really want.... Authentic. Genuine. Live your truth. Let others live theirs. Don't kiss anyone's ass, but don't be an asshole, either. "

11 " Cam says, “Look at me, lass. Look at this body.” He throws out his arms, juts out his chin, and puffs out his chest. “You think I got this perfect physique by starvin’ myself? You think I became the world’s most famous, beloved athlete by tryin’ to be skinny?”
“I’m sorry, could you repeat the question? Your ego is blocking my ears.”
“The human body is a complex machine. A temple, as they say. You have to treat it like one!”
