Begging Quote by Jamie McGuire

“I am begging you.” My arm lowered and tugged as he fell to his knees. “I’m begging you, Abby. Don’t do this.” “Let me go, Travis.” Travis was on his knees, palms flat on the pavement. The sight of him on the ground made the tears I’d been holding back rush down my face.” quote by Jamie McGuire
