Marry Me Quotes

I swear, you caused my heart to soar more in the past few months than it has in my entire existence.

Make me the happiest man alive.” I opened the box revealing my mom’s ring.

I thought I was fine, that I didn’t need anyone else, but I was wrong, because I do. I need you. Christ, I—”He grasped her chin gently and leaned forward, her eyes drifting closed as their lips came together. His kiss was sweet but there was passion behind it . . . passion she looked forward to feeling for the rest of her life.
