Before & After

Rike and Peyton fell in love in college.



A boy from the wrong side of the tracks, covered in ink and crooning in a bar is the last person a straight laced girl with a art major should fall for, but his rough edges made her jagged, alive, shaving away the coddled southern princess and revealing a soul wild and brilliant.

They, more than anyone, knows that life doesn't go according to plan.



Rike and Peyton fell in love in college. A boy with a guitar, and a poet's heart, and a girl with freckles dusted over her nose, a perfect fucking fairy tale.



But what happens when the fairy tale doesn't fall apart--but is forgotten?
