I blow out a breath and take three steps back. “I hate that skirt.”
“You do?”
“But I’m going to buy you one in every color. Those stockings too. Max out my credit card, Maven.”

He loves her skirt & thigh highs
Totally turned on

“I like when you get like this,” she murmurs. “Like you’d burn the world down for me if I asked.”
“You wouldn’t need me to. I’d just hand you the match and let you do it yourself. But I would. I would, Maven. There’s nothing you could ask for that I wouldn’t do.”

Not playing for a bit

Chapter 39 is in Dallas’s POV. I think that’s a good sign.

…when I slide into Dallas’s Mercedes, I know I’m no longer being strong just for myself.
Maven

Maverick takes June so Maven can be at the hospital with Dallas.

Maven- “You’re a good guy, Maverick Miller. One day, you’re going to make someone very happy, and ten million hearts will all break because you’re officially off the market,”
