Genre: Contemporary Romance (standalone)

Blurb:
Life is full of many things.
Love.
Loss.
Heartbreak.
Laughter.
No matter how small, each moment has value.
Then there are the big moments.
The moments that define us.
And the people who shape our very existence.
Abel Collins is that person for me.
From the very first time our eyes locked, I knew there was something about him. That he was the person that would change everything.
And he did.
But Abel isn’t just any man…
His past is his prison.
His guilt keeps him chained.
His grief defines him.
And now it’s up to me to set him free.
To make him see that life isn’t just about what we’ve lost but what we still stand to gain.
Because it’s not about what came before, but what comes after.

My View:
What Comes After is a hauntingly beautiful love story of loss, letting go of the past, and learning to love again. Melissa Toppen hit all of the soft spots in this beautifully written story.
Abel is stricken by grief. It's been years and yet, he hasn't come to terms with his loss or how to live after. Peyton is full of life, love, and understanding. When these two souls find each other, it's kismet. And yet the memory of one stands in their way. Abel has to learn that there is room enough in his world for 2 loves.
Strong, deep characters; Toppen certainly knows how to squeak a tear from this reader - which is super super hard to do. I have been a fan of hers for a long time, and yet, she still surprises me with every book. <3 <3
