Top 10 Best Quotes
“No man would ever hold me this well. I was made to be wrapped in these arms. A woman could tell a lot by the way a man holds her. She could tell if he had the strength to endure the rougher moments. If he had a mighty yet kind heart. If he could make her feel safe and cherished. Beau’s embrace said all that and more.”

“Good people don’t just see the good in others, they see it in themselves too.”
“My life was such a cluster right now. Starting something with Beau was the epitome of stupid, but damn, his fingers had felt good against my face. And that spark in his eyes was a beacon calling to my soul. Telling me to dock my fucked-up ship in his port and he’d make sure it didn’t sink.”
“Trust me. Please?” he asked. “I’ve got you.”
“You’re not ready. When you are, you’ll be the first to know.” My head fell and I spoke to my knees. “I don’t know what that means.” “I know. You just have to trust me.” His thumb hooked under my chin and lifted it up. “Christ,” he muttered. “Don’t look at me like that.” “Like what?" “Like your heart hurts. It’s killing me.”
“With Beau’s eyes staring right into my soul, I didn’t have one worry about where we were headed. I’d follow him anywhere on earth.”
“Will you promise me something, Beau?” “Sure.” “Before I leave, will you kiss me? Just once?” “Sabrina, we--” “I know,” I interrupted him. Two different worlds, I remember. One day I’ll go back to my life and you’ll be here with yours. But I’ll always wonder what it would have been like.” He lifted his cheek from my head and reached for my chin, tipping it back. “That’s not what I was going to say.” “It wasn’t?” “We would never stop at just a kiss.” I smiled “Would that be so bad?” “Woman, it would be fucking incredible.”
“My attraction for Beau wasn’t fading, not in the slightest. The new-guy flutters were morphing into all-consuming desire. My heart would fall for this sweet and thoughtful man. It was inevitable. And it would be the forever kind of fall. A disastrous descent that would splatter my heart on the pavement and leave no possible hope for repair. Because a future with Bea was impossible.”
“I’m just going to lay it out there,” he said. “You’re beautiful … We’re from two different worlds. Let’s not get wrapped up in this physical connection, or whatever this is, and do something stupid.”
