“You want me,” she breathed, the words twisting like an insult. “And you can’t handle it.”
OH MY WORD ... my love for this book is indescribable. It's basically 'The Last of Us', but Maddie is blind and Saff is a reformed "bad guy."
Definitely, one of my favorite parts of the book is the banter between Maddie and Saff, when the one puts the life in danger to save the other ... I mean, Maddie ran into an ambush for Saff, and Saff ran into a burning building for Maddie.
Quotes:
• “I fucking hate you.”
“Good,” Saff spat back. “Now maybe next time you won’t almost get yourself killed for me.”
•“Or what about kissing me?” Maddie asked, “Was that for your own survival?”
She could’ve sworn Saff’s breathing stopped altogether then.
•“It took everything in me to not get my rifle and hunt every one of them down.”
•“Your family’s nice. I like being around them.” ... “That’s good,” Maddie mumbled, a tired lull in her voice. “You’ll be around them for a while.”
•You,” Saff continued, the words careful and precise, “are the reason I’m still breathing right now.”
