"I'm sorry I filled your head with lies. I'm sorry you don't know how lovely you are. And I'm sorry I've made you feel undesirable. It's shameful. It's shameful, because I have never desired anybody the way I desire you. And I should have told you a long time ago. I should have told you every single day."
"I want you. A lot. And I should have told you every single day, too - that was just as much my failure as it was yours."
Playing by St. Vrain Creek. Guitar lessons. Baseball games. Camping trips. Summer jobs. Prom.
Our first kiss.
First date.
First time.
First marriage.
First love.
First everything, to our detriment.
“But…what if getting unstuck meant letting go of Samuel? Not just physically separating myself from him—I’d tried that already, and it hadn’t worked. What if it meant letting go of the love I still harbored for him, buried amidst bitterness, anger, regret? Was that what Jaime meant when she said I wanted to be stuck? If so, I didn’t know if I was strong enough to let go.”
It came down to this: was sharing each other's lives (now as just friends) and taking the joys that came with it, worth the heartache (if they find HEA with other people)...Could I risk it with Samuel Cabral?
10. LIE: I don't love Samuel anymore.
TRUTH: Is it possible to stop?
"What are you going to do? Write another book about me?" His hand was warm on my arm despite the chilly air. But I still shivered and wrapped my sweater tightly around me.
"Maybe."
