“We have such a long history that when I look into his eyes that's all I can see. I forget the stupidity of what we've done and who could get hurt. I just remember the man who loved me once” ― K.A. Linde, Avoiding Responsibility
“this was meant for you. Only you.” ― K.A. Linde, Avoiding Commitment
“So, as sad as this day is for me,as I am losing a part of myself with the loss of you,it is really just the beginning for me. It is like cutting off the spoiled part to get to the juicy center. So, I would appreciate it this time, if you did not try and contact me. Because, as I'm sure you know, I deserve better. I want everything this time around, and I deserve it.” ― K.A. Linde, Avoiding Commitment
“Lexi, I've wanted to tell you for so long." [...] "That I love you.” ― K.A. Linde, Avoiding Commitment
“But this isn't about Jack. This is about Kellan Kyle.” ― K.A. Linde, Avoiding Temptation
“I'm not sure what I'm going to do."Lexi gasped. "You mean…""Look, I don't know what to do yet. I just knew that's what you wanted," he saying eyeing her mussed appearance."That's not what I wanted.""If it wasn't, you wouldn't have let me do it," he told her simply."I wanted answers.""And I don't have any.” ― K.A. Linde, Avoiding Commitment
“You have always been what I want. I just made mistakes along the way. I told you that I would make it up to you, that I would show you what I could be for you, if you would only let me.” ― K.A. Linde, Avoiding Commitment
“Closing up. Finally spent.You are gone.And now you're moving along.Heavy now. Tears remain.Hard pressed to rest.When all I feel like is a mess.Now, don't you worry your head.You're not my one and only friend.And I don't need you anymore.To leave me bruised and broken on the floor.You left me bruised. You left me broken.You left me bruised. You left me broken.” ― K.A. Linde, Avoiding Commitment
“I can't help but look at you.""Yes, you can.""No, I can't," he said leaning in closer. "You are the most beautiful thing I've ever laid eyes on.” ― K.A. Linde, Avoiding Commitment
“I did those things because of my lack of control. When you touch me Jack, I completely succumb to you. I give into your every whim.” ― K.A. Linde, Avoiding Commitment
“I do want you Ramsey Bridges," she told him as a matter-of-fact. "And you shall have me whenever you like.” ― K.A. Linde, Avoiding Responsibility
“You were the only one I saw when I closed my eyes," he said bringing his hand up to her chin and tilting her head up to look into his crystal clear blue eyes."Then why wasn't I enough when they were open?" she asked another tear welling in her eyes.” ― K.A. Linde, Avoiding Commitment
“She had worked a year to get him out of her life as much as she possibly could. He always had a place in her heart since she had loved him so obsessively for such a long time, but she had been able to extract herself from him to an extent.” ― K.A. Linde, Avoiding Commitment
“Lexi, it is for you. I'm working to make things better for you.” ― K.A. Linde, Avoiding Responsibility
“I want to escape with you, Jack.""I'll always be your escape, Lex.” ― K.A. Linde, Avoiding Responsibility
“And Lexi had to deal with that fact. She had to deal with knowing that he hadn't chosen her. He didn't want her.” ― K.A. Linde, Avoiding Commitment
“Look, I don't know what to do yet. I just knew that's what you wanted," he says eyeing her mussed appearance."That's not what I wanted.""If it wasn't, you wouldn't have let me do it," he told her simply."I wanted answers.""And I don't have any.” ― K.A. Linde, Avoiding Commitment
“I don’t know if I can do this anymore,” Jack’s husky voice muttered sounding defeated. It was such a strange sound coming out of him. “I know what you mean."“I’m not sure I want to break up with Kate though."That snapped her right out of her own pity party. Break up with Kate! Holy shit! “Uh, Jack?”He tilted his head to look at her under his thick dark lashes. “Yes, my dear?”“You’ve been thinking of breaking up with Kate?” She couldn’t keep the disbelief out of her voice.He nodded choking on his own words. “Ever since I saw you like a vision on the beach the first day you got here.”“Wh…Why would you do that?” She knew the answer. But she wanted to hear him say it.“I thought that was quite obvious…for you.” ― K.A. Linde
