'I want her, need her, and I know that nothing, not even my parents, will get in the way of taking what I deem to be mine.The complexity of our relationship still gnaws at some insidious part of my brain and won't let go. I try to ignore it when these thoughts come knocking. They are not conducive to our relationship and I know from experience that ultimately my heart will win out - right or wrong.'SQUEEE, That. Was. AMAZING!! Cannot get enough of Angel. I absolutely loved Ruined, so when this book popped up on my Goodreads updates I promptly one-clicked it, reread Ruined & then dove into Ruining Angel. I didn't think it was possible, but this story made me love & appreciate Ruined even more.'When we come together I feel closer to her than I can ever imagine being with anyone. I'm sure it is because I love and feel so much for her - that and the fact I have seen so much of her life. I really understand who she is as a person and know what makes her happy, what makes her cry. Knowing a person so intimately opens up our relationship to love each other on a whole other level.'If you haven't read Ruined yet, I recommend you do so before reading this one because...1) some things will just not make sense to you if you read them out of order.2) reading this first will ruin the shocking reveal that takes place in the first book.3) Ruined was just that awesome. You really have to experience it to appreciate the full affect of these books.'She is my world - my everything. It's here I know with every fiber of my being, that I would roll over and die for this woman if it meant that she could just take one extra breath. As night drifts past us and morning kisses the bottom of the skies, I know that what we have is the start of something real. Something that I can hold on to for the rest of my life. Bailey has, and always will, hold my heart in her hands.'In this Novella we get to experience parts of Ruined in Angel's POV. This really helps you understand his actions better. Being in his head brings to light exactly what he was thinking when he kept pushing Bailey away & it also shows how hard doing it was for him along with his struggle to accept their relationship as anything but wrong. But not only that we get a glimpse into his past, which makes you see why his family is so important to him & explains his reluctance to cause a rift between him and his parents. As a bonus, we also get to spend some time with him & Bailey after the wedding. I only wish the book was longer, there are still some issues left unresolved for me. You don't really get to see if anyone comes to terms with their relationship. Then again, I don't think I would ever get enough of this story no matter how long it was (I also wouldn't have complained if there was more steam Lol). In the end, I'm still exceptionally happy with the way Angel's story was told. Sexy & heartbreaking but so incredibly sweet too, I just loved it & am extremely reluctant to say good-bye. READ. THESE. BOOKS ;)'Do I still feel guilty about our relationship? F*** yeah! But I'm not gonna let it run my life. I'm going to live it exactly the way I want to, which of course includes Bailey.'
