Before We Were by Monique Medved
Some love stories are written in the stars.
Ours was etched in missed chances and almosts.
A girl searching for herself…
After seventeen summers in Eden, I knew I loved the boy with the fractured heart. But time changes everything—and Nate Sullivan is no longer just a boy. He’s a storm in human form. Loving him feels like standing in the eye of a hurricane—breathtaking and devastating.
Now I’m faced with a choice that could shatter us for good…
Because some love stories aren’t fairytales—they’re survival stories.
A boy haunted by his past…
She was my calm in the chaos, the only light I ever saw in the dark. But I messed it up. I let the past define me, and I broke her heart in the process.
Now, Lenora Wells is back—and she’s not the same girl I knew.
And me? I’m still a mess pretending I’ve moved on.
We’ve made too many mistakes.
Hurt each other in ways we can’t take back.
But walking away from the one person who feels like home?
That might be the one thing I can’t do.
What if our ending… was always meant to be our beginning?
Before We Were is an emotionally charged, slow-burn New Adult romance about soul-deep first love, second chances, and healing in the ruins of heartbreak. Perfect for fans of angsty, heartfelt stories with protective boys, summer nostalgia, and love that refuses to quit.
