Quotes and lines from the After series I loved. (After #1 , After We Fell #2 , After We Collided #3 , After Ever Happy #4 and Before) :D

Fresh out of law school, Sutton is eager to climb the ladder at her new job. But on her first day of work, she comes face to face with an unexpected colleague--her ex-best friend and first love, Ada. Forced to work together, Sutton and Ada must untangle the complicated feelings they've always had for each other--feelings that may lead them back to friendship, or even to something more.

This isn't a deep book about first loves or self-discovery. If you want a book like that, I'd be happy to recommend one, but I don't have that kind of story to tell. Instead my story is about rash decisions and finding out that your dream guy is bad in bed. It's the story of when I finally went skinny dipping, and how my life was never the same again. Oh, and it's also the story of my freshman year of college and realizing Mr. Right might have been there all along.

Abigail Roberts built her life on grit and tenacity. She raised her brothers after their mother's disappearance and opened a cozy little pub in small town Stonebridge, Connecticut. The only problem is that the pub is crumbling beneath their feet and she needs what she doesn't have-money-to fix the place she's worked so hard to build. Declan Fitzgerald has never forgotten the fiery Abigail. So when he returns home from New York for his mother's annual Autumn Harvest Party, he's happy to help secure a replacement caterer and heads straight for the Plumber's Pub--a place he's well aware Abigail runs but has never seen for himself. With secrets of the past brimming on the horizon beside a storm, Abigail swallows her pride and accepts the catering job. But this time when she sets foot on the opulent estate, she will not be intimidated by the Fitzgeralds as she once was, and she will not go quietly into the night as she did before. Under the mists of chilled rain and surrounded by twinkle lights of the extravagant party, the past and present combust with long-held secrets, deep desires, and love that has never faded through the seasons.

#StanfieldBook1: Duke Steele "So which is it... are you leaving me because I'm a criminal? Or because you think I'm a liar?" Secrets. Lies. And deception. It all comes back six years ago, when Louraine Samantha Allegra thought her life was turned upside down and she was tossed into a black-hole of misery of life-the ugly past she never wanted to remember. But then, six years had passed and Louraine stood face to face with a man who will be her husband, the same man who froze her heart. Duke Arjun Steele-the man with undeniably good-looks, confidence and oozing sex-appeal. Dangerous and darker. Can his fiery eyes warm her heart and melt the icy barriers he himself erected?

For centuries on end, the seven dimensions searched for a new element to guard the last of four vortexes. Seventeen years ago, that search was put to an end… Cathy Morse wants nothing more than to be a normal seventeen-year-old; have good parents, loyal friends, a decent boyfriend. But instead, she has a deceased father, a heroin-addicted mother, fake friends and no boyfriend in sight. When she’s attacked and bitten one summer night, her whole world turns upside down. What was once a search for the Prophecy of the Dead has turned into a raging battle for the powers Cathy holds within her; powers that control the most powerful vortex in the Earth plane – the vortex she protects. For Cathy is an element, sworn to guard her vortex since the moment she was born. Along her journey, she finds herself not only falling into a battle, but falling for her vamperic maker, Alex. Alex, however, is a cursed vampire; he cannot love, and wishes not to be loved, but he is swayed otherwise as he delves deeper into Cathy’s life, as she does his. But they aren’t only fighting for their love; they are fighting for their lives, and the vamperic race as the Others – otherwise known as the Damned – plan to snatch the vampire throne and take control of the seven dimensions, as well as take control of the elemental vortexes, killing Cathy and getting revenge on Alex in the process. Can Cathy lift Alex’s curse so he can love again? And can Alex protect Cathy from being taken by the Others into the dimension of the Damned?
