About the book
For fans of Sarah Dessen and John Green, this is a breathtaking debut about a couple who fall in love...twice.
Before: Reena Montero has loved Sawyer LeGrande for as long as she can remember. But he's never noticed that Reena even exists...until one day, impossibly, he does. Reena and Sawyer fall in messy, complicated love. Then Sawyer disappears without a word, leaving a devastated—and pregnant—Reena behind.
After: Almost three years have passed, and there's a new love in Reena's life: her daughter. Reena's gotten used to life without Sawyer, but just as suddenly as he disappeared, he turns up again. Reena wants nothing to do with him, though she'd be lying if she said his being back wasn't stirring something in her.
After everything that's happened, can Reena really let herself love Sawyer LeGrande again?
- First Love, Second Chance: Reena loved Sawyer for years before he finally noticed her. Now that he's back, can she risk her heart on the one boy she's never been able to forget?
- Teen Parent Romance: For three years, Reena's world has revolved around her daughter, Hannah. Sawyer's return threatens the stable life she's built, forcing her to decide what's best for them both.
- Dual Timeline: Told in alternating \"Before\" and \"After\" chapters, this story unravels the mystery of Sawyer's disappearance and explores the bittersweet path to forgiveness.
- Secret Baby: Sawyer left town with no idea that Reena was pregnant. Coming home means facing not just the girl whose heart he broke, but the daughter he never knew he had.
