Book Two in The That's How You Get The Girl Series.
Six months after the rain-soaked confession that changed everything, Lila Bennett and Ethan Cole are no longer the couple who almost lost each other.
They're the couple everyone believes in.
The hallway kisses.
The shared hoodies.
The whispered "I love you" before class.
They chose each other.
But forever doesn't start with fireworks.
It starts with reality.
When Ethan lands a prestigious summer internship in New York and Lila gets accepted into an elite music program in Los Angeles, their perfectly rebuilt love is stretched across opposite coasts - three time zones, missed calls, and growing pressure.
Long distance isn't cinematic.
It's silence again.
And silence is what broke them the first time.
As distance magnifies their old fears - Ethan's fear of failing someone he loves, Lila's fear of loving louder again - cracks begin to form.
Add in:
* A charming producer who believes in Lila's music a little too much
* Ethan's ambitious, emotionally unavailable father re-entering his life
* And the terrifying question of whether young love can survive real adulthood
And suddenly, "I love you" isn't enough.
Because this time, no one's running away.
They're just growing.
And growth hurts.
When a devastating misunderstanding threatens to undo everything they rebuilt, Lila and Ethan must decide:
Was the rain confession the climax of their love story?
Or just the beginning?
"After the Yes" is an emotional, mature continuation of a love that survived silence - and now must survive distance, ambition, and the terrifying reality of choosing each other every single day.
