Have you ever read a book or novel so many times because you couldn’t get enough of your favorite character? I definitely have!!!.

Well, I am pleased and excited to join this contest because it has given me an avenue to gush about my favorite character in writing . My friends have really gotten an earful about him(Hardin Scott)since I read the AFTER SERIES novel.

The After series comprises of 5 books namely After, After we collided, After we fell, After ever after and lastly Before;of which my he is the lead character in the book series.

Hardin Scott was portrayed as one with a rude and violent personality due to the emotional negligence he faced and suffered from as a child. A young college student suffering from daddy’s issues but was cool, caring and protective of those he truly cared about.

He is a tall, slender but muscular with a chiseled defined jawline, blue eyes and tattooed covered skin young man. He grew up as a little boy in England with his parents who loved him especially his dad. He shared a very close relationship with his dad until at a tender age, his dad lost his job, became an alcoholic and neglected both him and his mom.

On a fateful night, a group of tugs who his dad owed money broke into their home looking for his dad but he was not at home rather at a pub drinking away his sorrows; when they noticed this, they raped his mom in his presence and this experience hunted him even in his sleep and this made him despise his father who later abandoned them, relocated to America, became a chancellor of a University and remarried. With the above mentioned, Hardin Scott hatred for his dad grew and this made him make some bad choices in life. He started drinking, smoking illegal drugs and ruining girls without a care in the world.

At age 18, his mom grew worried about him and decided to send him to America to study at his father’s University. He went but declined living with his father rather he opted for staying in a fraternity house. He was very resilient and determined in not forgiving his father even after he saw that he had turned a new leaf and had asked for forgiveness. He was wild and had wild friends, he never knew what love was until he met Tessa Young, an uptight young lady you who also likes reading books like Hardin Scott. They met, got attracted to each other but pretended like they hated themselves, fell in love but their love became toxic.They got addicted to each other at the same time became verbally aggressive to each other when one does something wrong. They both helped each other in finding out their dreams but also involved themselves in emotional damage until they broke up in order to find themselves which was the best decision they ever made although it was difficult for them but they survived it.

He helped Tessa get an internship in his uncle’s publishing company, defended her in front of his friends who made mockery of her and found solace in her while she helped him let go of his hatred for his dad and made him forgive his dad.

After college, they both became successful in their various career paths, had to let go of their toxicity towards each other. Finally, Hardin proposed and they lived happily ever after.

Hardin will always be my favorite character because he was determined in becoming a better person for Tessa. He had to accept that forgiveness isn’t being weak but the right thing to do in order to move forward in life. He was loyal, caring and protective of those he truly cared about. I have always imagined him as a knight in a shining armor to Tessa Young. He was truly a natural romantic as their love was able to conquer all the obstacles till they had their happy ever after.
