One of the most emotionally charged books that I have read. The amount of tears that I shed during this book should be a crime.
Full RTC.

The world could have ended while I was reading this book and I don't think I wouldn't have noticed.
There are few writers who can write a romance as good as JEA - it seems as everything she touches turns gold.
Before Us, is an emotional rollercoaster from the get go and had me choking back tears about 10 percent into the book. On top of this it was angsty and so damn romantic it bordered on cheesy at times.
I loved the fact it was character driven it made me fall in love with all the characters in the book. It is overall a fantastic story and the best I have read so far this year; if you looking for something spectacular Before Us is the book for you.

Zachary Hays is the ultimate book boyfriend and in the words of the author - it sucks for my next book boyfriend.

Well shit.
It got me out of an reading slump.
But the story tears me apart. The first part between Em, Zach & Suzie was just emotional.
But Zach & Em.. it infuriated me so much. A lot was unsaid but done. A lot couldve been avoided by COMMUNICATING. But boy, thats why I love this kind of stories, right?

I listen to the audio for this book and it had me in tears I have never cried so hard at a book. I knew the book was going to be sad but I didn't expect it to be this sad it was both surprising and annoying at how sad it was but overall a very beautiful love story

This was my first Jewel E Ann book and wow! What a book
So touching and heartfelt but also so heartbreaking aswell.
I was absolutely consumed by this book and it’s characters. I adored everything about it, I laughed, cried and swooned.
Zach and Emersyn are beautiful characters that you can’t help but root for the whole way through.
I love this because it was a story of finding love where you least expect it and how it can exist in more than one way.
“Soulmates are not S O L E mates. Without one we are not alone. Many souls feed our own. Humans are interchangeable puzzle pieces; we fit into more than one space.”
