They are from opposites sides of the track - but when their two worlds collide, nothing will ever be the same again. Johnny Kavanagh has everything going for him. On the rugby pitch, he's a force to be reckoned with. Primed for stardom, he's heading straight for the top. Nothing can possibly get in his way, right? Not even the shy new girl at Tommen College. The one with the sad eyes and hidden bruises. The one that distracts him like no one ever has. Life has never been easy for Shannon Lynch. Bullied and tortured, she arrives at Tommen College mid-way through the school year praying for a fresh start and desperate to shake off the demons that plague her. On her very first day at the prestigious private school, she comes into contact with the notorious Johnny Kavanagh. Thrown through a hoop over her feelings for him, and desperate to keep a low-profile, Shannon finds herself once again the target of bullies as she forms a fragile alliance with rugby's rising star. Falling into a complicated friendship and grappling with their undeniable chemistry, Johnny and Shannon could never have foreseen the obstacles that will threaten their blossoming relationship . . . .........................

Read the rest of the series so far: Binding 13 Keeping 13 Saving 6 Redeeming 6 Taming 7 Releasing 10 Review: A one of a kind book that deserves all the 5* (I never give 5*) - It takes quite a bit for me to want to re-read a book, it doesn't happen often - quite the opposite, yet I keep coming back to this one. For me, a successful book is good story, good characters, good writing, and it has to make me FEEL. If it has all of those elements, which let's face it, is sadly rare, then I'm gone hook, line and sinker. This series - Shannon, Johnny, Gibs, Claire, Joey, Mammy K, all of them, is unlike anything I've ever come across before. It is so good, that even though I know what's going to happen, I Feel everything these books evoke just as much each time I read them. I cry with them, rage with them, rejoice with them, grieve with them, laugh out loud at the humour and the antics they get up to (especially Gibs - hands down funniest book character I have ever had the pleasure of coming across). I'm not sure I've ever had that from one book before. Shanon may come across as a bit doormat-ish at the start, but peel back those onion layers, and you find the heart of a fighter, an incredibly strong girl who doesn't even know it herself. Johnnys the definition of overthinker; a strong, good guy with so much commitment, dedication & passion for the things he fights and cares for. I loved these two. This absolute gem of a book, and series, is so unlike anything I've ever come across before, and I know for a fact that I'll still be coming back time and time again because they are "bleeding brilliant". If you're looking for a beautifully written, heart wrenching, hilarious book with dark secrets, characters so seemingly real that it's almost seems plausible that one could bump into them in Ballylaggin, and want one hell of a book hangover, then do yourself a favour and read these pronto. Review: I have no words ! - Oh My God ! Mrs Walsh you have some explaining to do leaving us on a cliffhanger like that ! I screamed at my kindle ! This book is something else ! I have been through every emotion possible, I have laughed I have sobbed this book is everything ! Shannon - oh sweet sweet Shannon, the world dealt you an unreal bad hand of cards for such a lovely little soul, you just want to cuddle her and protect her at all costs ! Well that’s where Mr Rugby comes in Johnny and Shannon turns his world upside down but she don’t even know ! He becomes so attached and protective of Shannon to the point he doesn’t understand what’s going on with himself (his falling for her) but he won’t admit it and tell Shannon this. The relationship building was incredible, you wanted to shake Johnny and tell him just to kiss the girl most way through the book 🤣 you just know these are going to make the cutest couple ever ! Gibsie ! - oh Gibsie you are hands down one of my favourite book characters ever ! You don’t give two tosses about anything and the things that come out his mouth is priceless. Gibsie is that best friend we all want and need ! Just hurry up and tell Claire how you feel and stop messing about ! I can’t get over this book ! I was hooked from the beginning I would recommend this book to everyone who wants a book you can get totally lost in, you get emotional attached to characters and you will go through every emotion possible from chapter to chapter ! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Would give it so many more stars ! 5 is certainly not enough for this amazing book ! Now to start number two I need answers and I need to know what’s next ! ## Features - New Store Stock ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 120 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 1 in Rugby Union & Rugby League 2 in Sports Romance (Books) 3 in Friends to Lovers Romance (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 97,730 Reviews | ## Images ![Binding 13: Epic, emotional and addictive romance from the TikTok phenomenon (The Boys of Tommen) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91-BnjgSPLL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Media Language, Media Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A one of a kind book that deserves all the 5* (I never give 5*) *by K***H on 21 May 2021* It takes quite a bit for me to want to re-read a book, it doesn't happen often - quite the opposite, yet I keep coming back to this one.

What an emotional rollercoaster the last 48 hours have been. I put off reading Binding 13 for so long, unsure if it could live up to the hype. Now I get it and honestly I’m glad I waited. I didn’t think a high school romance this long would grip me the way it did, but Chloe Walsh completely proved me wrong. Despite the school setting, it never felt immature. The story dives deep into trauma, mental health, love, and survival, with a level of emotional intensity that kept me hooked. Even at nearly 800 pages, I flew through it. There was a stretch around the 500-page mark where the emotional push-pull got a bit repetitive, but by 700, I was right back in it and completely invested. The characters are where this book shines. Gibsie is a standout, hilarious but clearly hiding his own pain. I know there’s more to him than the funny best friend but I just can’t work it out! And Joey. Oh, Joey. His pain was so overlooked. He’s trying so hard to hold it all together, to protect his family, to be everything for everyone and you can see it’s slowly breaking him. My heart ached for him with every chapter. He deserves peace more than anyone. Shannon’s journey was heartbreaking and beautiful. Watching her slowly find her voice and begin to trust again was powerful. Johnny loyal, protective, and emotionally raw felt like the anchor she needed. He wasn’t perfect, and that made him all the more real. Binding 13 is about so much more than young love, it’s about healing, loyalty, friendship and surviving what life throws at you. I cried, laughed, got angry, and fell in love with every page. Now excuse me while I go dive into Keeping 13, because I am not done with this world yet. ## Frequently Bought Together - Binding 13: Epic, emotional and addictive romance from the TikTok phenomenon (The Boys of Tommen) - Keeping 13: Epic, emotional and addictive romance from the TikTok phenomenon (The Boys of Tommen) - Saving 6: Epic, emotional and addictive romance from the TikTok phenomenon (The Boys of Tommen) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/524919909-binding-13-epic-emotional-and-addictive-romance-from-the-tiktok](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/524919909-binding-13-epic-emotional-and-addictive-romance-from-the-tiktok) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-09-23*
