Quote

We were together because we were addicted to each other. I was never as intoxicated as I was when we were happy together, and I knew it was the same for him. We were putting ourselves through the wringer for those moments of perfection between us, but they were so tenuous that only our stubbornness, determination and love kept us fighting for them.

Until you, I didn't consider my past as an issue. Yes, it affected certain ways I did things, but everything had its place and I wasn't unhappy. In fact, I thought I had a comfortable and uncomplicated life. Oh boy. My nose wrinkled. Hello, Mr Comfortable. I'm Miss Complicated. His grin flashed. Never a dull moment.

It's going to be a lot of work, Gideon, Eva warned him. I'm not afraid of work. He was touching me restlessly as if it were as necessary to him as breathing. I'm only afraid of losing you.
