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.

Benjamin Hansen is tall, dark and gruesomely handsome- not to mention, filthy, filthy rich. He has everything he could possibly desire, and believes this to his core, but that's only up until the moment that young, damaged sweetheart Aria Leverton stumbles into his lap. Aria is frankly just trying to get through life in one piece. Fate has never been on her side, but as a new job opportunity practically falls into her open arms, offering stability and hope for her future, she doesn't waste a moment to hesitate. A stunning billionaire who can't love and a hopeless romantic who's just looking for the right guy. They couldn't be more wrong for each other... But how can they resist? *Inspired by 50 Shades Of Grey- but all characters and storylines are my own* **edited**

Christian is bored with life until he encounters Anastasia on WSUV campus. As their paths cross, sparks aren't the only thing that flies.

Ana and Christian meet in college, he whisks her away to Seattle and she stands by his side as he builds up the business. Now married, rich and deeply in love, they must navigate busy careers and Christian has to reassess his priorities to achieve a work-life balance. Sexy lemons, HEA, no cheating and lots of drama! *Please note: This story originally appeared on Fanfiction.net. Welcome to all my followers from that site!
