Gotta say I don't usually read books with high school students. I am old enough to be their grandmother. I enjoyed After the Before so much that I will be looking into more books by Jessica Gomez.
The main characters were likable and believable. The circumstances surrounding the story were so depressing, I didn't think I would ever smile. The author made me work for happily ever after. It was so worth it!!!! Even better I got some one to really, really hate. If I could have reached into the pages and slapped her I would have done a happy dance all day long.

A dark but interesting story with a satisfying ending. The plot was intriguing, if not a bit cliche, with a female who constantly needs saving and a hot guy that every girl he gets near throws themselves at. There are also a good amount of editing issues that should be addressed.
Even so, the story shines through and I found myself riveted to the page and rooting for the unlikely couple to get through the drama.
