[This story is free as of February 10, 2021] "Move over A Walk to Remember, and make way for one of the most heartwarming stories this side of Wattpad. It's so cute, I could cry (again)." - Grace @ HQ After tragedy strikes, Nolan loses all faith and never expects to love, let alone smile again until Nora-perky and persistent-walks into his life. ***** 15-year-old Nolan Haynes has everything. A loving family, a promising future as a filmmaker, and a pretty cool group of friends. That is until tragedy strikes and he's forced to move towns. Nolan vows never to let anyone in ever again-they always leave. But on a summer day two years later, when the super upbeat, Nora walks to his lunch table-Nolan has to try a bit harder to keep a smile off his face. Little does he know that Nora is fighting a battle of her own, one that no one could even imagine. And as the two get closer, they not only find solace in each other but in God. When Nolan is faced with a situation in which he has to break Nora's trust to protect her, can their budding relationship still stand and will God show up in all of this? [[word count: 80,000-90,000 words]] Content and/or Trigger Warning: This story contains scenes of verbal and physical abuse that may be triggering for some readers. NOTICE: Before the Morning is currently undergoing revisions! A sensitivity reader (someone who goes through your manuscript and assesses representations in your work) identified a number of issues surrounding the Filipino representation in BTM. I'm rewriting with the goal of creating a more authentic and respectful story. I'm sorry for the pain I caused by failing to include accurate Filipino culture and in having written from Nora's point of view.

BOOK FIVE. DUE FOR MAJOR EDIT Olive Howe doesn't need to prove herself to anybody. Independent. Cool. Classy. She knows what she's worth, even if life is determined to show her she's wrong. Battling health issues, she wishes, if only once, not to burden the people she loves with her out of control seizures that take over her life. Olive has had enough and is determined to chase her dreams. Courage. She is bursting with the stuff. And it's caught the attention of a certain, blue-eyed, blonde haired, football playing, Larsson. Just because Dexter Larsson is the youngest brother, it doesn't mean he's got less fight. Born into one of Europe's wealthiest families, it's always assumed opportunities are laid out on a silver platter for him. This is not the case. Hard work and determination secured him a position with Manchester United football team. It's all of his dreams come true and he knows in order to earn the respect of his teammates and fans, he needs to avoid distractions at any cost. Especially sexy distractions that come in the form of his physiotherapist, Olive Howe. But, it's hard to stay away. Her sweetness an addiction to him. A sugary-too sweet for his own good-addiction. Olive is good with her hands and Dexter needs the relief. Daily. Too bad he's too absorbed in the bubble of football and fame to realise that losing her would be the end of him.
