This Lachlan and Isabella quote turns intimacy into trust: he does not just want her body. He wants to know her by heart.
“Mouse, you’re not going to hurt me.” I guided her down. “It’s time you found your place over my heart.”
Tears welled in her eyes.
“How do you always read me so well?” she whispered.
I brushed my thumb along one of her cheeks.
“Because you’re the first woman I’ve ever wanted to know by heart.”
~Lachlan and Isabella, Eyes Never Lie
About this Lachlan and Isabella quote

After a life where other people decided what she was allowed to be, that kind of attention is disarming. This post is ideal for readers who love protective heroes, tender possession, and dark romance where being truly seen is more intimate than being touched.
