Quotes by M.L. Broome (?)

“That’s the trouble with assumptions—you believe what you want to believe. You can convince yourself of any story, provided it suits your narrative. If you want to believe a man loves you, you will see all the little ways he does. The opposite also holds true.”
― M.L. Broome, Make You Stay
