Synopsis1

Tessa is a good girl with a sweet, reliable boyfriend back home. She’s got direction, ambition, and a mother who’s intent on keeping her that way.

But she’s barely moved into her freshman dorm when she runs into Hardin. With his tousled brown hair, cocky British accent, tattoos, and lip ring, Hardin is cute and different from what she’s used to.

But he’s also rude—to the point of cruelty, even. For all his attitude, Tessa should hate Hardin. And she does—until she finds herself alone with him in his room. Something about his dark mood grabs her, and when they kiss it ignites within her a passion she’s never known before.

He’ll call her beautiful, then insist he isn’t the one for her and disappear again and again. Despite the reckless way he treats her, Tessa is compelled to dig deeper and find the real Hardin beneath all his lies. He pushes her away again and again, yet every time she pushes back, he only pulls her in deeper.

Tessa already has the perfect boyfriend. So why is she trying so hard to overcome her own hurt pride and Hardin’s prejudice about nice girls like her?

Unless…could this be love?

Now newly revised and expanded, Anna Todd’s After fanfiction racked up 1 billion reads online and captivated readers across the globe. Experience the Internet’s most talked-about book for yourself!

There was the time before Tessa met Hardin, and then there’s everything AFTER … Life will never be the same. #Hessa

I really don’t know how to put my review into words.  This book was like an accident, you shouldn’t look but you just cant help but stare.  After is like a guilty pleasure tv show that your embarrassed you like but you secretly devour each episode.  I could not put this book down.  I don’t know why because in all honesty the characters pissed me the h-e-double hockey stick off, but I was completely and utterly sucked in.  AND this book is LONG.  Could it of been cut down to half it’s size….yes.  Did I still enjoy every minute of it…yes.  I cant wait to see what happens to Tessa and Hardin and NEED to continue with their story.
