I loved every second on this book

“She’s so pretty that I need to warn heaven I came up with a new sin.”

“Before, I hated mine. The word made me feel like a pair of shoes or a car. Caine’s mine is different. He doesn’t use mine in possession, but in devotion, and that makes all the difference.”

“You’re trying so hard to keep me out. What’s it going to take for you to see I’m already in?”

“I stop holding it back. I’m not saying I love you; I’m finally not not saying it.”

“Get in so I can aftercare you.” “Aftercare me so hard, baby.”

this made me giggle so hard I had to put the book down for like 15min or sth

it’s been a week and I’m still giggling XD

“My prayers are answered. Margot spits in my mouth, and somewhere, an angel gets its wings.”

this is a serious, tension filled spicy scene and I just laughed out loud

“I’ve been going to therapy, but clearly need more. Caine offering to murder my ex- husband should not be so arousing, and yet . . .”

“The man is a sex god; I refuse to let him think I’m impressed.”

“In the near dark, he looks scary, but not in a let me grab my stun gun way. Scary in a my heart is beating so hard it might fly out of my chest way. Scary in a Why is heat spiraling up from between my legs? way. Scary in a make me scream from fear, then make me scream from pleasure way. I’m very annoyed, but even more aroused.
Annoy-roused, even.”

“I obey without hesitation. Apparently, an orgasm or two is all it takes to make me downright agreeable.”

you know what, valid

“I like god fine. There are plenty of reasons why believing in a higher power is comforting. It’s the blatant hypocrisy that kills me. Because how do you go in and nod along to a sermon about loving your neighbor and then decide your neighbor is only people who look like you, or act like you? Or listen to lectures on turning the other cheek, then go home and kick the shit out of your kids—”

“Bible is the ultimate weapon for him; he can twist the words until they justify any behavior he wants them to. I don’t think I’ll ever forgive myself for not seeing it sooner.”
“Cruel people don’t usually lead with their bad intentions. They hide behind a pulpit, or a badge, or ‘I love you.’ Whatever gets them closer to what they want. You can’t blame yourself for not seeing something hidden.”

“When you go through rough things in life, there’s an implication that it’s because your faith isn’t strong enough, or you have some sin you aren’t addressing. Going to a psychiatrist is out of the question, because they think it isn’t a health problem, it’s a holiness problem. That there must be a reason why you aren’t being healed.”
this made me so angry

“It’s like I’ve been screaming fire, but no one ever believed me. Caine’s arrived with a hose, and I didn’t even have to point out the flames. I don’t have to convince him this is happening, or that it’s bad. I don’t have to do this alone. Someone else sees what Nicholas is doing and says, Hey, that’s fucked up. Twentysomething me needed this care, and it never came.“

let’s fucking gooo - this is my note for chapter 19 🥰

“We’re going for a scary, sexy good time here, woman, not a new trauma.”

“One day we’re going to have a long talk about what constitutes a deal-breaker when it comes to me and her. All I’ve got on the list is death. Mine, because that’s the only way I’m out.”

“As much fun as this will- we- won’t- we flirting situation we’re currently doing is, if I don’t spell it out, there’s too much room for miscommunication. I also know her well enough to know that I need to explicitly say, Margot Elizabeth Walker, I am here to win your heart and make you come until you beg me to stop, to ensure she understands I’m serious.”

“I don’t ever want to be that person again.”
*that person=beating the shit out of someone
but we know damn well he will, for her, somewhere around 80% in

“Can’t have Margot looking up from her laptop and spotting me at full mast. She’ll think I have a traffic kink.”
XDDD

“The coffee maker chimes. Is he reluctant as he turns away, or do I just want him to be? Caine walks toward the fridge. “How do you take it, gorgeous?” The pitch of his voice suggests an appropriate answer would be from behind.”

this made me giggle so hard

“I don’t know much about religion, but my feelings for Margot Elizabeth Walker are nothing short of worshipful.”
another one to file under “how down bad do you want him?”

“This doesn’t feel like release; it feels like resurrection.”

oh boy

“I can picture my obituary. She died doing what she did best: stressing out and being a horny little freak.”

“This isn’t a fight- or- flight response; it’s a fight- or- fuck response.
Oh nonononononono.”

why is this dark romance making me giggle 🤪

“I know I can get through the haunt for the same reason I love horror movies. They’re supposed to be scary. I’m supposed to feel afraid. So when they are, and I am, it’s exhilarating. All is right in the universe. It’s a high, a rush, and delicious in a way that real-life fear isn’t.”
this is exactly same WHY some things work in mafia or dark romance but don’t in contemporary

what the f is semipublic sex? like how can it be “semi”? 😂

ok there is one trigger warning I fear but I trust Allie she will execute in a way not triggering for me 🤞🏼

“This is a high-heat, dark(ish) romance novel”
love the ish! DarkISH is my fav kind of dark romance 🖤
