Ann Aguirre
Possessiveness isn’t love. I’m not even sure it qualifies as an emotion.
Ann Aguirre
Stalkers lips curled into a sneer. You won't make a move without him, huh? That's embarrassing. No, I said softly. It just hurts because you wish it was you.
Ann Aguirre
I'm Sirantha Jax, and I have had enough.
Ann Aguirre
I have had passionate kisses and fierce ones, kisses so sweet they tasted like pure honey and kisses that cut like knives, but until this moment, I’ve never had one that said both hello and good-bye.
Ann Aguirre
I think people can be trusted to know what makes them unhappy. Maybe we don't always know what we want exactly, but we can usually say what we don't with a fair amount of specificity.
Ann Aguirre
