Book Review: Binding 13 by Chloe Walsh
Some love stories don’t just stay with you — they change you.
Binding 13 is the first book in the Boys of Tommen series by Chloe Walsh. It follows Shannon Lynch, a shy and traumatized girl seeking a fresh start at Tommen College, and Johnny Kavanagh, the school's rugby star dealing with his own hidden struggles. As their worlds collide, a complicated friendship forms, leading to undeniable chemistry. Set against the backdrop of Irish rugby culture, this slow-burn romance delves into themes of love, pain, and healing.
I absolutely loved this book. Even now, I still think about it — the pain, the emotions, everything. It's hard to put my feelings into words, but Binding 13 left a profound impact on me.
The characters felt incredibly real and relatable. Shannon's journey of healing and Johnny's internal battles were portrayed with such depth and sensitivity. Their story is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the transformative power of love.
Chloe Walsh's writing is immersive and emotionally charged. She masterfully balances moments of heartbreak with humor and warmth, creating a narrative that is both poignant and uplifting. The supporting characters add richness to the story, making the world of Tommen College come alive.
Binding 13 is more than just a romance novel; it's a journey through pain, growth, and the healing power of connection. It's a story that stays with you long after you've turned the last page.
