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.

My life played out before my eyes, everything from my first steps to my first kiss. It was like watching an old black and white film, all about my life's story. Yet, it had almost abruptly ended and I had not even done everything that I wanted to as I was only eighteen. I had wanted to go to university, aspirations for becoming a doctor, settle down and have a family, everything a normal girl wants. I'm not your typical, everyday girl though. I have a twin brother who is in a famous, world-renowned boy band called One Direction, and a medical condition that could potentially threaten my life. I had been severed away from everyone and everything, when no child should go before their parents. I was on my death bed, when I was granted a miracle. I was given a second chance at life. Maybe this time, I will be able to be a normal girl?
