What do you think?


Tethered Hearts
Set in the year 1994
At nineteen-years-old, Sophia Álvarez has everything a girl her age could ever want. A trustworthy best friend, high markings in her college classes, and a loving family. Everything in her world is calm and full of structure.
She's content with what the universe has served her until one fateful night causes her to cross paths with a mysterious man. After only one interaction with the mean-spirited college senior, Bryce Matthews, Sophia's life suddenly changes from being calm to being chaotic.
Their love is just as undeniable as it is dangerous. He's everything she shouldn't want. He's harsh and cold to everyone he knows - besides her. In the end, it's their differences that charge their relationship, adding fuel to the fire and giving them a reason to fight for their love.
But when dark pasts, obsessive exes, and deceptive friends threaten their relationship and their lives, will Sophia draw the line and say enough is enough or will she stick around for the long haul?
