Since Rose, he’d never wanted to be the right guy for anyone. He hadn’t wanted to carry that extra burden. He liked things nice and simple. But things sure as hell weren’t simple with Lena. They’d never been simple with Lena. Things with Lena had been one hundred shades of unadulterated complication from day one. That fact alone should have sent him running in the opposite direction with all the speed of an Olympic gold medalist. But no, here he stood. Holding on to her as if his life depended on it. Heaven help him, his life probably did depend on it. . Loren Mathis
About This Quote

When Rose was the love of his life, he didn't want to be the man who was always right. He didn't want to be the guy who would carry the extra burden. He liked things simple and easy; but it wasn't easy when it came to Lena. Things with her were always complicated; they were one hundred shades of complication from day one.

That fact alone should have sent him running in the opposite direction with all the speed of an Olympic gold medalist. But no, here he stood, holding on to her as if his life depended on it. Heaven help him, his life probably did depend on it.
