Quotes from the Book

Bravery is a choice that is yours to make. Don't let fear steal your will.

Our lives are, like these woods, ever changing. Nothing is static. And so you cannot count on an easy, carefree life to always remain that way. Or a harsh existence to stay the same. Life can get better. Or life can always become worse. And then you die. Don't reflect on the negative. Think about all the positives in your life.

I won’t lose you. You’re mine, and I’m yours. And if I have to take on the world to make it so, I’ll do it.
Every time I kiss you,” he says, his breath tickling my mouth, “I want you to know that this is what I want. Make no mistake, Britt, you are all I think about. You have been since the day we first met, since we first started training together, since I saw you stand strong in the face of so much opposition around you. You are all I need. You are all I will ever want.
Bravery is a choice that is yours to make. Don’t let fear steal your will.
Writing a novel is a trek.
Don't reflect on the negative. Think about all the positives in your life.
Fear is bred of that which we don't understand.
Sometimes it's hard to look past a grudge to see the truth.
Focus is a weapon as much as your bow.
