“Why is time an illusion?” She’s asking about the quote on my skin. “Because you can live a lifetime in a second or never experience a thing in eighty years,” I explain.”

“I’m a man. I don’t do conversation well, but I do my best to show you every day what you mean to me. If I’m not doin’ that right, you need to tell me. I’ll do better. But don’t fuckin’ question how I feel about you. I feel nothing unless I’m with you. You give me life.”

“You meet that chick yet?” “Who?” “Emily. The coffee shop chick.” “Briefly.” “You should make that shit less brief. Woman’s fuckin’ hot as hell, the right kinda pain in the ass and so sweet she made my motherfuckin’ teeth hurt. Jenna’s it for me. But if she wasn’t, I’d be drinkin’ coffee for every meal and eaten the coffee chick’s pussy for dessert.”

“I cannot recommend Ellie Augsburger at Creative Digital Studios enough! She produced amazing work for my debut novel. I am NOT an artistic person...at all. Ellie took my bumbling rambling (frankly poor) ideas and translated them into beautiful representative images of my work. I would have been lost without her!

Not only did she create my cover (print and eBook) but she also created the images for my section breaks, Facebook banner, Twitter page, and my website.

As I write my sophomore effort, Ellie will be my go to for all of my design needs. If you are looking for a creative, inspiring, helpful, knowledgeable, FANTASTIC designer look no further than Ellie Augsburger at Creative Digital Studios.”

I want you. I want you so fuckin’ bad I can barely function around you. You decide this is what you want with me and I’ll spend fuckin’ days showin’ you what you do to me.”

“You don’t have to be sorry for either of those things. I should have listened better before I answered you. I’m sorry. And you never feel bad about cryin’. If you need to cry, you cry. Don’t hold that back from anyone,”

“I never had sex with Adam. That’s why he cheated,” I mumble into her Burberry scarf. “Never?” she asks as she sets me back. “Nope. I knew somewhere deep down that he wasn’t being faithful. I was in denial, but my body knew it.” “Your vag is psychic. That’s awesome,” she says through a snort before we both start snickering.”

“Dude sounds like a BAMF,” Jordan says with a little snort of appreciation. “What’s a BAMF?” “Badass motherfucker.”

“It’s the aroma that captures your senses first. Robust and rich, it lingers on your palate, while the warmth coats your lungs in comfort. It can draw you from a deep slumber or guide you through your day after a sleepless night. Your best friend, the place you have peace, if just for a moment. Coffee.”
