“It’s a privilege to have someone trust you enough to show you those pieces of themselves, the most vulnerable and tender, the least polished. It’s a show of trust to let you see them first thing in the morning, in the middle of a panic attack, right after they’ve cried. To give you a shaky smile after a messy fight. To come back to you again and again with their heart in their hands.”
― Jessica Joyce, The Ex Vows

“Because that's what life is - joy peppered by loss. It's why you get a dog. And then you get another dog. Madness repeating itself just to get another taste of joy.”
― Annabel Monaghan, Summer Romance

“Sometimes courage is just quietly trying again.”
― Tarah Dewitt, Savor It

“You get a dog and you know two things - you're going to fall in love with it and it's going to die one day. You knowingly walk headfirst into a heartbreak. That's the basic madness of dog ownership.”
― Annabel Monaghan, Summer Romance
