“I’m eager to start my new life with her by my side.
She’s my best friend.
My dream girl.
My soulmate.”

“Every day, Arabella is unlocking parts of me I didn’t even know existed. There’s something oddly terrifying about feeling this vulnerable. What if she doesn’t feel the same way?”

“Don’t come until I say you can,” she murmurs against my lips.

I draw back. “I’ll come whenever I fucking feel like it. The sooner you learn who the boss is here, the better.”

There’s a mischievous smile on her face as she raises her eyebrows, and that’s when I realize she’s only retaliating against my own recent demands. “I believe I’m the boss of your orgasms now, Barclay, and don’t you forget it.”

She’s off the charts sexy.”
― J.L. Perry, Bossy Bastard
