Rafe Ferreira, the spoilt son of an Italian millionaire, is banished to a small town for his troublesome behaviour. In his final year in a new school, he has one year and one chance to prove to his father that he is not a hopeless case and is a worthy heir to a fortune. Nora Fujioka is a small-town girl whose head is only filled with getting good grades. Her hard, no-nonsense attitude to studying makes her a social recluse and a major geek in school. She also happens to be the one person who can genuinely help Rafe. Initially, it doesn't help that they are polar opposites. She thinks he's an ungrateful slob. He thinks she's a mean stuck-up. But they learn more from each other than they originally bargained for.

Alison Hart, Brady Carson, Max Hall, and Julia Evans had grown up together, they had seen each other through thick and thin. When Alison broke her arm skateboarding. When Brady scored the championship winning point for his basketball team. When Max had a short stint in jail. When Julia performed in the Nutcracker. Through it all they had stuck by each other. Up until last summer. When everything just went wrong.

NOTICE: Before the Morning is currently undergoing revisions! A sensitivity reader (someone who goes through your manuscript and assesses representations in your work) identified a number of issues surrounding the Filipino representation in BTM. I'm rewriting with the goal of creating a more authentic and respectful story. I'm sorry for the pain I caused by failing to include accurate Filipino culture and in having written from Nora's point of view.
