Desiree M ~~~’s Notes & Highlights

Book cover for The Pucking Wrong Date (Pucking Wrong, #3)

The Pucking Wrong Date (Pucking Wrong, #3) by C.R. Jane

7 highlights

Walker’s fists were clenched in his lap, like he too was having to do everything he could to stay away from me. I liked that. Desperation like this shouldn’t be experienced alone. If I was going to ache for him, he’d better ache for me.

“Beauty you're born with, but brains you earn.”

“You'll never be rid of me now." It would have been a tease from a less serious man, but coming from Dorian, it sounded like a dire warning. "You may come to regret it. My demons will haunt our lives."
Farah reached for his wrist, stilling his hand and capturing his eyes with her own to make certain he understood her words. "I don't mind battling a few demons when I'm living with their king." She smiled. "And I think, after a time, we'll chase them away together.”

“It’s like a disease that crosses racial boundaries and is confined to the male sex—use towel, drop it.”

“I’d sign up to flip burgers at the nearest fast-food joint if it meant avoiding doing vaginal exams on my sister. The mere thought was worse than that disgusting horror flick called The Human Centipede. Seriously, if you’ve never seen that movie, don’t fucking see that movie. That flick is more traumatic than the blue waffle and that “Two Girls One Cup” site combined. Jesus. Don’t Google those either.”
― Max Monroe, Dr. OB
