Happy birthday Kevin day! Happy birthday Connor Storrie! Happy birthday me! I have some great birthday twins! #AFTG #HeatedRivalry

Last first kiss by @julianwinters.bsky.social was a beautiful story about second chances, childhood friends, and a lot of firsts with many cute and sweet moments. A little bit of spice & a lot of heart. Absolutely loved it! It was a great companion follow up book to I think they love you 5⭐️ #BookSky

“He's not afraid to show anyone how in love he is with Jamie. How he's always been in love with him. When Jordan Carter tells his family the story of how he met his first love, it'll start a little something like this: Jamie Noah Peters was his first kiss. His first crush? His first boyfriend.(1/4)

“When Jamie kisses him back, with tongue and longing and gentleness, it's better than winning. Better than being the best at everything. It's like waking up from a bad dream and knowing you're not alone. That someone's right next to you. Without question or reason.”-last first kiss by Julian winters

“‘I’m learning that identity is funny and strange and, sometimes, confusing,’ Jordan says in that same soft voice. ‘Sometimes, you know when you're young. Sometimes, it happens later. Sometimes, never. But it's okay to take your time.’” - last first kiss by Julian winters #BookQuotes #BookSky

“‘There is no ‘right’ person for me,’…’There’s just the man I love. Easily. Naturally.’ … ‘I don’t know how to love anyone like I love you, Jamie.’ … ‘You don’t have to chase that feeling anymore. I’m right here.’ (1/2)

"’Kissing you is like... like sitting in your pajamas watching movies all day. It''s like soup when you re sick. Like being high-so fucking high.’ A laugh bubbles in his chest. ‘Jamie it's a rush and it's comfort and it's home.’ … (1/2)

“But he's starting to believe heartbreak doesn't want words. It doesn't want platitudes or motivational quotes or by-the-book solutions. It wants you to feel the pain, the loss. If you never experience the ache, how will you ever heal from it?”-last first kiss by Julian winters #BookQuotes #BookSky

"’I can promise you, Jordan,’ Braylon says, ‘whatever you're feeling is real. Even if you can't explain it. Or don't have a proper name for it. It's real. Let it be real. Not for anyone else. Just yourself.’" - last first kiss by Julian winters #BookQuotes #BookSky

“‘I just want some peace.’ His eyes finally reach Jordan’s again. Jordan doesn’t look away. Gently, Jamie says, ‘You’re my peace, Jordan.’” - last fist kiss by Julian winters #BookQuotes #BookSky

“I frown in the direction of the sound, wondering who the hell thinks one o’clock on a Saturday afternoon is a good time to stop by unannounced. This is prime nap time. What if I were napping?”- accidently yours by Christina Lauren #BookQuotes #BookSky

“Plus, I wouldn’t even know what to do with him if I got him. How often would I have to walk him? What do you feed abs like that?” - a play for love by Trilina Pucci #BookQuotes #BookSky

“Two days since he met Sloane. The woman Jamie’s been on a “few dates” with. But he’s cool. Not at all pouting like a fussy toddler in need of a juice box.” - last first kiss by Julian Winters #BookQuotes #BookSky

It’s so weird reading an older dystopian book that’s set in the future at the time it was published but at the time of reading it it’s actually your past. Trippy! #BookSky

“‘Harp?’ … ‘I’m in love with you.’ I wait for him to squirm or run but he doesn’t. … ‘Me too,’ he whispers back. ‘You’re in love with you, too?’ … ‘No, you idiot. I love you. I really bloody do.’” - pole position by Rebecca J. Caffery #BookQuotes #BookSky

“…the last word hanging in the air, my name. Not as a means to call me, though, but as a notion of describing the future. Is it irony, that I gave myself this name? A name that means inevitability? A name that requires a future? (1/2)

"’I was a child when my parents told me I was not allowed to be myself under their roof. I need to prove that I can become someone of value.’ ‘You already are.’ ‘Someone more.’ ‘You already are,’ she counters again.” - sunset year by cj Ellison #BookQuotes #BookSky
