Gabby Lin Taylor never wanted anything in her entire life. She never wanted a good home, she never wanted good food, she never wanted decent parents, she just wanted him. She didn't even know who him was yet but she knew deep down there was a him and she wanted that him. After her parents divorce, she felt like nothing. Gabby swore she would never be happy again. Her mother spent her nights crying under their dinning room table with a bottle in her mouth as her father occupied their room with a woman she's never seen. Gabby just has her friends, Cecilia, Adrianne, and Marcus, to keep her sane in this messed up world she has been forced into. Now, it seems that Him is an imagination from her childhood and her family is shattered like a porcelain dish that has gone through an earthquake. She must now try to put the pieces into place.

[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?

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.
