'Pain isn't remotely kind in that way. Pain wants its promised pound of flesh, ounce for ounce. It won't settle until you're left with nothing but a flaky shell of who you were. The burn of betrayal and the sting of rejection hurt, but nothing compares to the pain of being empty. Nothing hurts worse than not hurting at all and it makes no sense and perfect sense at the same time and I'm convinced I'm going crazy and I'm actually okay with that.'

The story follows the main character Elizabeth Bennet as she deals with issues of manners, upbringing, morality, education, and marriage in the society of the landed gentry of early 19th-century England. Elizabeth is the second of five daughters of a country gentleman living near the fictional town of Meryton in Hertfordshire, near London.

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

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.

Kayla Bradman’s used to being ignored by, and hiding in the shadows of her big sister, Elysha. She's used to getting bullied by all the cute guys and cheerleaders. But then a new family arrives. There are two parents and two guys. One guy Elysha’s age, and one guy Kayla’s age. And they’re living next-door to Kayla. So, as normal, she avoids them-just like she avoids other guys. But the guy Kayla’s age is interested in Kayla. And he’s going to get what he wants. But with that comes a whirlwind of drama, break-ups, get-togethers and break-ups. But is that cliche saying "True Love Conquers All' going to happen in this story? Is it really true? (This story is probably the worst out of all my stories-so I'm deleting it soon.
