Story
Daisy Smith has spent 18 months of her life paying for a crime she didn't commit. Desperate to rebuild her life and show the system that she is responsible enough to care for her brother, she takes on the only job available to her - working as a maid at the Matis Estate. On day one of her new job, Daisy meets Kastor Matis, the only son of the owners and her new boss. The more time Daisy spends around Kas, she starts to see there might be more to him than just his cold, bastard ways. He may actually have a heart beating in that frozen chest of his.

My love story all started with a letter. Only it wasn’t from the man I’d eventually fall in love with. It was from his daughter. A sweet little girl named Birdie Maxwell who’d written to the magazine that I worked for. You see, once a year my employer fulfilled a few wishes for readers. Only that column didn’t start up again for months. So I fulfilled some of her wishes myself. It was harmless…so I thought. Until one day I took things too far. While anonymously granting yet another of Birdie’s wishes, I got a look at her father.

Everyone says opposites attract. And they must be right, because there’s no logical reason why I’m so drawn to Colin Fitzgerald. I don’t usually go for tattoo-covered, video-gaming, hockey-playing nerd-jocks who think I’m flighty and superficial. His narrow view of me is the first strike against him. It doesn’t help that he’s buddy-buddy with my brother. And that his best friend has a crush on me. And that I just moved in with them. Oh, did I not mention we’re roommates?

Summary
Now newly revised and expanded, Anna Todd’s After fanfiction racked up 1 billion reads online and captivated audiences across the globe. Experience the Internet’s most talked-about book for yourself!
There was the time before Tessa met Hardin, and then there’s everything After... Life will never be the same. #Hessa
Tessa is a good girl with a sweet, reliable boyfriend back home. She’s got direction, ambition, and a mother who’s intent on keeping her that way.
But she’s barely moved into her freshman dorm when she runs into Hardin. With his tousled brown hair, cocky British accent, tattoos, and lip ring, Hardin is cute and different from what she’s used to.
But he’s also rude - to the point of cruelty, even. For all his attitude, Tessa should hate Hardin. And she does - until she finds herself alone with him in his room. Something about his dark mood grabs her, and when they kiss it ignites within her a passion she’s never known before.
He’ll call her beautiful, then insist he isn’t the one for her and disappear again and again. Despite the reckless way he treats her, Tessa is compelled to dig deeper and find the real Hardin beneath all his lies. He pushes her away again and again, yet every time she pushes back, he only pulls her in deeper.
Tessa already has the perfect boyfriend. So why is she trying so hard to overcome her own hurt pride and Hardin’s prejudice about nice girls like her?
Unless…could this be love?/p>

guilty pleasure
although it's very poorly written, many narrative mistakes, characters wearing different clothes within the same scene, mentioning the passage of time and then speaking of a previous even as if it happened yesterday...
apart from that, this is such an addicting story, target audience are teen girls and all that matter to the story is the romance. it's a teen version of 50 shades, however much more interesting and characters with more depth. you empathise with them.
the narrator is fine, but her voice is a bit annoying. performance though is descent. nothing special.
it's one of those books that make you listen for hours. I will certainly listen to the next two and looking forward for the movie.
if you are looking for something light and simple to listen to this is nice. It's not literature, but it serves its purpose.
huge dissandvantage is the top many sex scenes. it should skip at least half of them. it becomes annoying after a while.

Better for younger readers
I've heard so much about this series that I decided to give it a go. It's okay. But just okay.
Firstly, the story closely resembles others that I've liked much better, others aimed at a more mature audience. The language and descriptions are pretty tame with the occasional obscenity thrown in for effect. Might excite younger readers, but not me.
Secondly, the chapter breaks are just weird. I suppose it's intended to make you read on into the next chapter, but I find it annoying.
Thirdly, the performance is better than most, but all of the male characters sound the same. At times I have a hard time keeping track of which character is speaking because of that.
Last, I find it a little annoying that the writer uses few contractions, unlike normal conversation. The result is awkward, stilted and constrained. Again, odd.
I don't regret listening to this one, but don't know that I'll bother with the rest of the series. I can't imagine them being an improvement.

Decent, a little immature for me.
Is there anything you would change about this book?
The incessant internal thoughts. This can absolutely ruin a book for me if characters have too many internal dialogues.
Have you listened to any of Elizabeth Louise’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
I have not, the narration was pretty good in my opinion.
Was After worth the listening time?
I will not be re-listening to this but don't think it was a waste of time.
Any additional comments?
I think the this book was just based on characters too immature for my liking. Also the supporting characters were very inconsistent. They were some of the meanest people ever and then all of a sudden we were supposed to like them or forgive them. Just didn't work for me.

i could not stop listening but this story is too depressing and the characters not likeable. this guy is a jerk, big stupid ahole and teresa just keeps forgiving him... it makes me so mad that girls might think being treated liked that is acceptable after the guys says im sorry and i love you. a jerk is a jerk no matter how hot or cute he is.
i didnt like the narrator much either...

Mentally Abusive Boyfriend Romanticized
*** SPOILER ALERT ***If you’re looking to read / listen to a book that is basically a younger generation of the 50 Shades series, this is that book. Hardin Scott is an abusive boyfriend that is so “handsome” we have to forgive him, right? WRONG.
No amount of sex or sweetness can overcompensate for the fact that he takes Tessa on a roller coaster of emotions. She literally states dozens of times how much she doesn’t like his personality and how he verbally mocks her. Not cool. He also almost forces her to do certain sexual acts that young boys and girls reading might think is normal. . . STOP.
I am happy for Anna Todd who got her Wattpad book published, super happy! But I wish it hadn’t been this. Praying her other books aren’t the same way.
Narrator does a good job though!

✫✫ 4 Stars ✫✫
I enjoyed this NA romance for what it was, which is a story about a girl who was obviously sheltered but also bullied by her mother growing up and a boy who has ptsd and his way of dealing with that is anger. He tries to be the bad boy but his good boy shows through whenever he lets down his guard. I think he is also trying so hard to be the bad guy that he doesn't have guts enough to stand up for what he thinks but instead does things no matter how awful because he doesn't want to look weak to his "friends". 1/2 the book I loved him and the other 1/2 I thought he acted like a boy and not a man! I hope book 2 will show him growing but from the nasty reviewers I'm guessing he doesn't. That will not deter me from continuing on to book 2 because I have to see what happens next. The story pulled me in from the beginning which is what i'm always looking for in a book.
The narration of this audiobook was great! She does a great accent for Hardin.

The author wrote a story that keeps you interested but Tessa is a stupid girl for letting Harden treat he that way. And there's 4 other books?! It made me crazy and evoked real emotions in me so I guess the author did her job. It really was like a ping pong match.

Abusive and Demeaning Boyfriend Romance Story
This was a good book and it did keep me intrigued with all the drama, so much so that I stayed up all night long to finish the 2nd half of it to the end. (So Extremely tired at work now) It is about an abusive boyfriend that is so demeaning and cruel to his girlfriend regardless of how much she gives up for him. I wish Tesse could have made a true friend in college that she could depend on and go to for help and advice. I kept hanging in there hoping Hardin would eventually make a drastic change and start treating Tesse with some respect. Does NOT happen which is very disappointing. I could NOT believe the cliffhanger ending and cannot wait until 11/25/14 when the next book comes out. I guess that's why they always leave good stories like they do, I hope that in the second book Harlin gets what he deserves and Tesse learns to get a back bone and she ends up happy with someone else who appreciates and deserves her.

Painfully repetitive
I love some good tension between a love bound pair that shouldn't really be a good fit, yet love and attraction overcomes their differences. This is a teeny bopper roller coaster on steroids. The boy is abusive. The girl is pathetically gullible. The only reason they 'love' each other is pure teenaged lust. Their relationship has exactly nothing real. Its pathologic. At least not where I left off. 14 hours long. I'm tossing in the towel with five hours left. Another series that should never have gotten anywhere near book 2.
