That's What HE Said #21

That's What He Said is a weekly meme hosted by the ladies at Chapter Break, where we spotlight a quote from our book crush to the object of his desire. We like to pretend it's us.

What better way to celebrate our book boyfriends?

Shel is a big fan of the 2B Trilogy and her pick comes from the first book in the series, I Want It That Way. Oh we know you're singing that song in your head now! 




"What is it about you?"


"Huh?"

For some reason, I blurted out the truth.  "You make me... better.  Calmer."

Smooth.

"Like a sedative?"  Amusement colored her reply.

God, her voice was sexy, low and husky, as if she hovered on the verge of confiding a dirty secret.  That was part of why I couldn't get enough of these stolen conversations, however unwise they might be.

I rushed to explain, "I didn't mean it like that.  Just... I'm so worried pretty much all the time that I'm dropping the ball somewhere, about to face-plant, but when I come out here and hear your voice, everything backs off like ten steps.  I can breathe again."

  3. I have only read Ann Aguirre's YA book Enclave, but I enjoyed how edgy it was. I want to read more by her. Thanks for linking up. I am adding this to my ever growing TBR!
