When they find a Rydellington book they both like called, "My Bestfriend's Daughter(Rydellington Fanfiction)" By ross5_ and as they get further into the story.... Will they fall in love? Will they want their own Rydellington story? OR..... Will everything stay the same between them? Read for yourself.

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.

He never knew life could be this way, but truly if he did, he wouldn't have cared. He cared about nothing, not even himself until her. Before her, he was empty/ Before her he knew nothing of joy or completion, and this is his journey to his life After her.

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

Sometimes, all she could think about was ending her life just so all the pain would stop. After all, what was the point of her being alive? She was weak, useless and a waste of space. All because of a boy named Ross Lynch. But, she loved him, not knowing he was the one who ruined her. They both had something special, even though they didn't know it. They clicked and fell absolutely crazy for each other. But did he really solve all of her problems? Or did he only make them worse? - IN EDITING -
