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.

"His hand cupped my face and I felt tingles in my cheek. His head started leaning closer to mine and his other hand slid round my waist. My heart was beating quicker than ever and and I could feel my body take over as I placed my hands round his neck. He leaned in further and are lips collided. It was soft but passionate and I slid my hands down his hard chest, deepening the kiss." ------------------------------------------------ My name is Riley Thomson . I'm 16 years old and just your typical high school wall flower. That was until the schools bad boy ( kian Johnston ) pinned me against the wall and kissed me.
