Before (Volume 5) (The After Series)

Product Information

But with the release of Before, readers can expect to experience the depth of more than just Hardin Scott and his past, and how he came to feel for our beloved Tessa Young. There, Tessa gets to know the rest of Steph and Tristan’s clique, which just so happens to include Hardin Scott, a mysterious boy she met in her dorm room. The first four After films were all pretty well-aligned with Anna Todd's corresponding novels of the same names. Alongside them, Hardin’s account of his first encounters with Tessa—which will change what you thought you knew about the brooding boy and the angel who loved him.

The girl, Tessa, knows that Hardin isn’t good for her and she says as much on a number of occasions. For the first time, these others are given voice as they appear before, during, and after the events in original After novels. But fans were still a bit confused over Josephine Langsford's role in the movie, as she barely appears in the trailer, and much of the focus is on Harden and Natalie's past.After introduces Tessa Young, a high school graduate who’s just about to start her first day at Washington Central University as an undeclared economics major.

Hardin is furious at the idea, but eventually, they part ways and spend time figuring out what they truly want in life. DURING those first moments they met, he realized he needed to keep her for himself—his life depended on it.Hardin and Molly are incredibly similar in how they deal with what life has made of them and I really appreciated seeing the parallels between the two.
