Maybe slowly, maybe painfully. Maybe all at once. <br /><br />Melissa smiles. She flirts. She jokes. But she never shows her scars. Eight months after tragedy ripped her from her closest friend, Melissa is broken. Inside her grows a tumor, fed by grief, rage, and the painful memory of a single forbidden kiss. <br /><br />Javier has scars of his own: a bullet wound, and the memory of a cousin shot in the heart. Life in the States was supposed to be a new beginning, but a boy obsessed by vengeance has no time for the American dream. To honor his familia, Javier joins the gang who set up his cousin's murder. The entrance price is blood. Death is the only escape. <br /><br />These two broken souls could make each other whole again--or be shattered forever. <br /><br />Our time will come. And we'll be ready. <br /><br /><strong>Praise for Before You</strong><br /><br />"Beautiful. . .will settle deep in your heart." -- <em>New York Times </em>bestselling author Sophie Jordan <br /><br />"Will hook and hold you. . ." --National bestselling author K.A.
