Her şey bir kurşunun değil de, bir çift kara gözün kurbanı olmakla başladı. Bedenimde ki değil, ruhumdaki ölü tohumların yeşermesiyle attı nabzım. Ve o günden sonra üzerimdeki çiğ toprağı atıp yaşamaya başladım. "Çünkü burası Veda Caddesi," dedi kara gözlerini, gözlerimin içine mıhlayarak. "Çünkü burada her veda bir merhabayla başlar."

This is the sequel (continuation) of After. Hardin and Tessa's relationship will be tested in ways she never expected, but he knew of all along.

Tessa Young is an 18 year old college student with a simple life, excellent grades, and a sweet boyfriend. She always has things planned out ahead of time, until she meets a rude boy named Hardin, with too many tattoos and piercings who shatters her plans.

The passionate story of Tessa and Hardin continues as family secrets, deep betrayals, and career opportunities threaten to tear them apart.

On her eighteenth birthday, Sasha Pierce's life tragically comes crashing down. Now, working at a Strip Club in New York City, her only focus is surviving from one day to the next-at least until a handsome stranger makes her an offer that she can't refuse. Everything about Jaxon Edwards draws her in. His charm, his mystery, and especially his simple request; to accompany him to his sister's wedding as his fake fiance and to live with him for six months in exchange for more money than Sasha could ever imagine. But, to top it all off, he also offers her a glimpse into a dark, secret lifestyle unlike anything she's ever experienced.
