Remapping India： New states and their political origins

Mal is a sweetheart. Everyone agrees. He’s a big brother to all, defending anyone who needs a champion. But Mal’s got some secrets he’s been brooding over, and his childhood is about to bump up against award shows, TV appearances, and crowds of screaming fans.

Prentice is the American equivalent of a princess. She’s from a seriously wealthy family and is expected to pair off with some young prince from “our people.” But she’s been bullied almost from the cradle by one junior master of the universe, and the only person who ever stood up for her is now the drummer for the fastest-rising rock band in the nation.

Conditions are ripe for true love. Mal’s a decent guy and Prentice is all grown up in the best ways. Why shouldn’t they date? It’s not all smooth sailing, though, and Mal’s past is about to bite him in his handsome posterior. Can Prentice hold on to her hero? BEFORE AND AFTERMATH is the sexy, steamy conclusion to the Aftermath trilogy. It’s not going to win a Grammy, but it’ll make a few of YOUR hours fly by!
