“I read the title from the cover. ' 'The joy of... crap.' ' I read the rest of the full title of the thick, nondescript volume to myself and felt myself redden.
Noah turned over on to his side and said with mock seriousness, 'I have never read 'The Joy Of Crap'. Sounds disgusting.' I blushed deeper. 'I have, however, read 'The Joy Of Sex.' ' He continued, a smile transforming his face. 'Not in a while, but I think it's one of those classics you can come back to again... and again.”
― The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer

“Why?' He asked.
'Why what?' What could I say? Noah, despite you being an asshole, or maybe because of it, I'd like to rip off your clothes and have your babies. Don't tell.”

“Fix me," I commanded him. "This thing, what I've done- there's something wrong with me, Noah. Fix it."
Noah's expression broke my heart as he brushed my hair from my face and skimmed the line of my neck. "I can't."
"Why not?" I asked, my voice threatening to crack.
Noah lifted both his hands to my face, and held it.
"Because," he said, "you aren't broken.”
