𝙼𝚢 𝚠𝚘𝚛𝚔𝚜 #𝟏// ❥ Amoura never knew what love was until she met Dre. After a one-night stand with him, they continue to see each other on and off. Although their relationship starts off rocky, they eventually realize how much of an impact they have on each other's feelings. Take a look into Amoura's life as she navigates the stages of teenagehood and confronts the unresolved issues of her past. At first, things between them are rocky-raw, impulsive, confusing. But as time goes on, and as their lives continue to cross paths, Amoura starts to realize how deeply Dre affects her. More than that, she begins to uncover how much they're helping-and hurting-each other in ways they never expected. Soul Ties is a story about the stages of love, emotional healing, and the haunting weight of past trauma. As Amoura navigates the messiness of her own history-family wounds, and the longing to feel seen-she learns that love isn't always neat. 𝐌𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐭
