Before Her

Book Two in The After Him Before Her Trilogy Series.

Before he loved her... he ruined them.

Hardin Scott wasn't always the man who fought for love.
Once, he was the reason it shattered.

At eighteen, Hardin thrives on chaos-fuelled by anger, detachment, and a need to prove he feels nothing at all. When a reckless bet is placed in a crowded room, Natalie Kingsley becomes his next target.

Sweet, sheltered, and completely unprepared for someone like Hardin, Natalie falls for the boy behind the walls-the one he never intended to show. But for Hardin, it was never about love.

It was about winning.

What starts as a cruel game spirals into irreversible damage when trust is broken in the worst way. Natalie's world collapses, forcing her to leave London behind and rebuild herself in a city far from the boy who destroyed her.

But Natalie is only the beginning.

Molly Samuels.
Steph Jones.

Each girl leaves something behind. Each heartbreak shapes the man Hardin becomes. And with every name, every mistake, a pattern forms-one marked by a simple, haunting symbol: a butterfly.

A reminder.
A warning.
A scar he carries as much as they do.

Years later, standing on the edge of losing the one person who sees through him-Tessa Young-Hardin is forced to confront the truth:

You can't outrun who you were...
But you can choose who you become.

"Before Her" is a gripping, emotionally charged new adult romance about identity, vulnerability, first love, and the way one extraordinary girl can change everything.
