She had called a lot of places home, but it was for the lack of a better word. She never really felt at home anywhere.

She laughed a lot. It was a sound that warmed him up. A sound that made him realise how quiet his life had become before. A sound that made him wonder why he had valued the silence so much. 

β€œFact is, I just don’t have room in my life for her.”
β€œYou’ve got the room; you’re just too chickenshit to make it.”

β€œI wanted to be memorable.”
β€œBaby, it would take more than all the time in the world for me to forget you.”

β€œYou can’t put your worth in someone else’s hands like that . . . Whether you mean something to him or not has nothing to do with how inherently valuable you are.”

1.0

The whole book is basicly the mmc saying he doesn't love the fmc and getting mad at her for 'taking over his life'. While the fmc just accepts that without groveling one bit from the mmc.

One of my least favorite Lucy Score books (I love most of them) because it felt like the main man did not have to do much to win back the girl that fell in love wayyyy to quickly and put up with pretty much anything from him
