“Thing is," he says, his chin resting on my head, "there's no single way to be a badass. Your mother and aunts coming here and making new lives for themselves? Badass. My mother running her own firm even after she and my father divorced? Badass. You facing the obstacles in your path and reinventing yourself in the process? Badass. There's room for different kinds of greatness. Even if you cry doing it. Hell, especially if you cry doing it.”

Mia Sosa,
The Worst Best Man
“There’s room for different kinds of greatness. Even if you cry doing it. Hell, especially if you cry doing it.” ― Mia Sosa, The Worst Best Man
“But I want companionship, the security of knowing someone has my back, the ability to comfort and be comforted. Friendship. Vacations. Maybe even kids one day. Someone solid. Predictable. A person who doesn’t need passion and sparks to build a lasting relationship. I don’t know that I’ll ever find that individual—and that makes me extraordinarily sad.” ― Mia Sosa, The Worst Best Man
“You know, I think the more something's important to us, the more we feel we'll lose if it doesn't work out. So we convince ourselves not to want the thing.” ― Mia Sosa, The Wedding Crasher
“I’m going to be honest here and tell you I fucking hate that Andrew knows your secrets. He doesn’t deserve to.” Okay, then. I guess we’re talking about this whether I want to or not. “So, what? You think you do?” “I’d take better care of them,” he says softly.” ― Mia Sosa, The Worst Best Man
“Listen, there are different ways of getting closure and one of those ways might be to make someone miserable for the sake of satisfying your petty soul.” ― Mia Sosa, The Worst Best Man
“Hey, if you can’t say anything nice—” “Then you’re a bitch, and you may as well own it,” ― Mia Sosa, The Wedding Crasher
“His height forced her to stand on her toes. For a woman who’d been taller than most of the boys in her class in high school, that particular physical trait provoked a flurry of sensual images to flash through her mind. Sex against a wall. It was a possibility. And given the breadth of his shoulders, she imagined he’d hold her up just fine. Oh, glorious day.” ― Mia Sosa, Unbuttoning the CEO
“There are probably a dozen reasons why we shouldn’t even try. And maybe you can’t see yourself being with me. But I want you to know that if there’s any chance for us, I’ll take it.” ― Mia Sosa, The Worst Best Man
“My instinct isn't to look at him and say "mine, mine, mine." All I can think is, "Baby, I'm yours, yours, yours.” ― Mia Sosa, The Wedding Crasher
“He’s that friend you always find your way back to, the one who knows all your secrets and doesn’t care that you’re flawed, the one who’s seen your “before” pictures because he’s in them.” ― Mia Sosa, The Worst Best Man
“It's not just breathtaking, it's breath snatching. I inhale deeply—because I want my fucking air back.” ― Mia Sosa, The Worst Best Man
“she tucks a lock of hair behind her ear and smiles at me shyly. Lina’s luminous as it is, but that smile transforms her face, as though she’s suddenly glowing from the inside. It’s not just breathtaking, it’s breath snatching. I inhale deeply—because I want my fucking air back.” ― Mia Sosa, The Worst Best Man
“Fuck my life into next week.” ― Mia Sosa, The Worst Best Man
“Some people eat cake. Others eat their words.” ― Mia Sosa, The Worst Best Man
“A Black woman isn't justifiably upset, she's angry. A Latinx person confronts someone, they're fiery or feisty. I don't like raising my voice in public, Max. There's too much baggage associated with it. A woman gets emotional in the workplace, she's irrational and not fit for leadership. I was fired for being overly emotional in a male-dominated space.” ― Mia Sosa, The Worst Best Man
“Some people plant roots; others sprinkle seeds and let others tend to the growth.” ― Mia Sosa, The Wedding Crasher
“Lina did love Andrew, once upon a time but she certainly doesn't love him now. She wanted to marry him because she didn't love him. Love means breaking down your walls for the person who's willing to scale them. Andrew never tried. But I did. Because I am that person for her.In the end, it doesn't matter if I'm Lina's first, second, or fifteenth choice; what matters is that I'm the right choice." Max p456” ― Mia Sosa, The Worst Best Man
“Consider this my little gift to you. An early wedding present, if you will. Max, you didn’t encourage me to cancel the wedding. You spent most of the night talking about where you’d spend your honeymoon if you ever got married.” ― Mia Sosa, The Worst Best Man
