When an author writes a book that you have been waiting for you are nervous and so is the author especially if you know and root for the author. When I open Afterwards I was nervous because I did not know what to expect, I knew this book was going to be good from the first page.Never judge a book by its cover meaning the main character,I think the thing I liked about this book is I got to know a character that I was not sure I would like Chris Scaife. I got to know him, I understood the why even if I did not like him sometimes, but I understood him. The thing I found out is that he is a complicated man jaded by life, he started out like everyone else but because of his wealth people treated him differently, so he had to be different. Chris wanted some to want him for him, to care about him, not what he could give them I think he forgot he wanted that and lived his live with disposable women until Robyn. Robyn was that someone, but he was so guarded that the relationship was a process. The author showed us the process in this book, because that was what it took to become deep with a man so guarded. It's funny that the man who could sleep with any one he wanted took his time with Robyn. When they did have their first time together it was so passionate and intimate that you knew you were reading something special but it was the afterwards that made it good. The relationship between Chris and Robyn was about friendship and a complicated love, this story will keep you on your toes but it is so worth reading.
