How I am now

In the highly anticipated sequel to the New York Times bestselling Me Before , Eden and Josh try to give love another chance.

Eden and Josh never had the opportunity to live a healthy relationship. When they dated in high school, they both had issues that hindered the deep connection they felt with each other. Josh didn't know it, but Eden was carrying the burden of devastating sexual abuse, while he, the son of an alcoholic father, had to deal with his own pain.

Months have passed since Eden and two other girls publicly accused their rapist, and she's starting college while the case goes to trial. When Eden and Josh reconnect, it seems they're finally in the right place at the right time, and their relationship could work. But will their love be strong enough to withstand the challenges and chaos of this new stage in life, as well as the overwhelming reality of a trial that will determine whether Eden gets the justice she deserves?
