Grayson's Vow, by Mia Sheridan

4.0

4.5/5 stars
Wonderful couple Grayson Hawthorn and Kira Dallaire. Especially Kira is awesome.
Side characters are unforgettable.
I liked the feel of it. Close to reality.

Today may be a very bad day, but tomorrow may be the best day of your life. You just have to hang on until you get there. - Grammy

Watch what people do when they think no one's watching, love. That's how you'll know who they really are. - Grammy

I'd gone over the "what ifs" of my life more times than I could count. It was a painful, useless waste of time. - Grayson

"So you say. I've found that people say what suits them in the moment. Doesn't always mean it can be counted on." - Grayson

"Your grandmother believed that if age and maturity didn't make a person more aware of the needs of others, or at least one other, marriage certainly would." - Lawyer

"My mother used to say that marriage is much like wine. They both mature slowly and grow deeper and more complex with time." - Walter

"Forget the prince and princess. I always imagined the real story was between the witch and the dragon." - Charlotte

After all, what was life without a few exciting adventures? - Kira

"There's nothing on earth like the feel of someone who loves you grasping your hand in the dark when you're lost and afraid." - Shane

"We should all be children when it comes to love- open and vulnerable." - Charlotte

"And bear this in mind; love is not always smooth and easy. Love can be piercing. Love means exposing yourself- all of yourself, every tender part- to being hurt. Because true love is not only the flower, true love is also the thorns." - Charlotte
"Right, Sharp and painful." - Kira

"There is always pain in this life. Not just for me, not just for you- for everyone. You can't avoid it. And sometimes the pain is so great, it feels as if it carves out the very essence of who you are. But it doesn't, not if you don't allow it to. It carves out a place in you, yes, but love is meant to fill that space. If you let it, pain makes more space for love within you. And the love we carry inside makes us strong when nothing else can." - Kira

How much pain could a person handle before they broke? - Kira

I wanted to break her like she had broken me. - Grayson

"I think you'll find, that where there is real love, there is always real hope." - Walter

"And sometimes we'll meet halfway, but other times, I'll come to you. And I'll try my very best to put my pride aside so I know when I need to be the one to do that." - Grayson
"Me too." - Kira

In Vino Veritas. In wine there is truth.
But the greater knowledge that now lived in the peaceful silence in my heart was: in love there is truth. - Grayson
