You do not need to read it to enjoy the next instalment. It's simply an extra I wrote for those of you who want to know Olivia a little better. Also, for everyone who would like to get a feel of the storyline and the characters before diving into the next book. While WSF is entirely told through Brian's eyes, Before Dawn introduces you to Olivia's world before her return to London and revisits the day she meets Brian again, ten years after their story was left unfinished. Some passages will be found in both books. xo, AnaComplete
