Between Now and Forever is the second studio album by American country music artist Bryan White. It was released on March 26, 1996, via Asylum Records. White continued work with the same producers from his debut studio album, Kyle Lehning and Billy Joe Walker Jr.. White co-wrote four of the album's ten tracks. He described the album as more mature, believable, and energetic than his previous album.

The album received a favorable reception from music critics. It was also a commercial success on both the singles and albums charts. It peaked at number 7 on the US Top Country Albums chart, becoming his first top-ten album on the chart. Three of its four singles cracked the top ten of the US Billboard Hot Country Songs chart, including the number one singles "So Much for Pretending" (which he co-wrote) and "Sittin' on Go", the former becoming his fourth and final number one single to date.

The album has been certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for shipments of one million copies. It is his most successful record to date.

Critical reception

Billboard's Chet Flippo gave the album a positive review writing, "He's got a voice older than his years, a brilliant song sense, and, most important, he understands what country music is all about. It doesn't hurt that he's also a good writer."
