Trusting 14

Tadhg Lynch knows exactly what people say about him.
Hot-headed. Trouble. Too much like his father.
After surviving a childhood filled with violence and loss, Tadhg is trying to settle into life at Tommen College alongside his siblings and the Kavanagh family who took them in. On the hurling pitch, he's unstoppable. Off it, he's barely keeping the storm inside him under control.

Then he meets Bethany Gibson.
Small, sharp-tongued, and impossible to ignore, Beth is the younger sister of Gerard Gibson and every bit as chaotic as her brother. She's the girl with a smile that makes people think she doesn't have a care in the world.
But Beth has secrets.
The kind that leave bruises nobody can see.

Drawn to one another from the very beginning, Tadhg and Beth quickly become inseparable. But as their friendship deepens into something far more dangerous, buried trauma, explosive tempers, and painful truths threaten to tear them apart.

Because trusting someone with your heart is one thing.
Trusting them with your darkness is another entirely.
