Before 22

*Before 22* follows Livy, a young woman who's been on a relentless quest for love, always giving her heart fully to every relationship, only to watch it slip through her fingers. At just 22, Livy has already experienced more than her fair share of heartbreaks-each one a painful reminder that no matter how hard she tries, love always seems to elude her. She gives all of herself, always putting her partners' needs before her own, but each time, she ends up abandoned and empty-handed.

As she faces yet another devastating breakup, Livy begins to question whether she's capable of ever having a love that lasts. She wonders if she's too much, too trusting, or simply not enough. Desperate to understand what she's doing wrong, she begins to build walls around her heart, swearing to herself that she'll never allow herself to feel so vulnerable again.

But when Livy meets Alfred, a guy who seems to understand her in ways no one else ever has, her resolve begins to crumble. For the first time, she feels seen, valued, and cared for in ways she's always dreamed about. However, the scars of her past are never far behind, and she's faced with the painful question: will this one finally be the love she's been waiting for, or will it fall apart like all the others?

*Before 22* is a raw, heartfelt exploration of love, self-worth, and the personal growth that comes with learning to trust again after a series of failed relationships. Livy's journey is one of discovering that while love is powerful, the most important relationship she must nurture is the one with herself.

This book will resonate with anyone who's ever given their all to someone else, only to wonder what went wrong, and will remind readers that before we can truly love someone else, we have to first learn to love ourselves.
