Kate-lowry Quote by Lisa Roecker
““You can't keep doing this," Liam added under his breath, "You've just gotta let it go." Tears sprang to my eyes, and I wiped them away with backs of my hands. "I know this isn't easy for you, but Grace wouldn't want you putting yourself at risk for them." He cupped my face in his hands and used his thumbs to wipe away fresh tears before they even had a chance to fall. "You're never going to win this. If you had a chance, they wouldn't bother playing." "I know." And I did. There was no doubt in my mind that Liam was right. But that didn't make it any easier to give up.””
