A storm is breaking, and it’s going to change everything….The day after forever – Erin Skiffington
The Day After Forever is an emotional story centering around four teenagers who discover and demonstrate the true meaning of friendship. It illustrates the agony surrounding horrific events and how friendship will always stand strong against the circumstances.
Jeff has leukemia. The whole purpose of organising the holiday down to Lake Tarawera was so he could spent the last moments of his life in the same place where his parents died. Yet he cannot help but fall for Courtney – who is shy, pretty, yet secretive. No matter how her friends try to help, she shies away – sheltering her secret from them as best as possible.
Eddie is confident, handsome – a regular “babe magnet”; and he is also attracted to Courtney, and concerned about her. he is also the one who knows about Jeff’s plight and the seriousness of it.
Toni is loud, outgoing… and she knows it. She also knows that if it weren’t for her, Eddie would be floating in the clouds somwhere.
As events unfold, Jeff drifts further towards the end of the line, and time begins to run out.
Four friends. One summer.

Can the future ever erase the past?

But her father’s family has a complicated history – one tied up with the fight for equality for the Nought population. And as Rose takes her first steps away from Sephy and into this world, she finds herself drawn inexorably into more and more danger. Suddenly it’s a game of very high stakes that can only have one winner…
