Finding love in a digital age can prove to be difficult when danger looms in every corner of the net. Still, every dark place has a silver lining. Deep emotional connections can be started with a virtual message. But meeting that person in the real world for the first time...is a whole different story.
Matthew wasn't interested in girls or popularity; he just wanted to make it through high school in one piece. He had downloaded the app in hopes of finding someone to connect with. That was how he met Jay. Now, he's questioning everything he knows about love as he throws caution to the wind.
But, caution isn't always a bad thing when in the dangerous worlds of love and the Internet.

The Unbreakable Thread Of LOVE
What is Love? Is it merely a fleeting emotion, or could True Love truly last forever? What of the elusive Thread of Love-is it strong enough to endure the trials of time, or can it snap under the weight of despair? And what of love at first sight? Is it a genuine phenomenon, or simply a figment of our imagination? Picture this: a Girl meets a Boy for the first time, and in that moment, they discover feelings that ignite something deep within them-something they never knew existed. What is this sensation that takes hold of their hearts? But how did they come to meet? Ah, that is where the story unfolds. They encounter each other during a practice-a practice that seems mundane at first but holds the potential for something extraordinary. What kind of practice, you ask? That's for you to discover later, as revealing too much now would spoil the thrill of the journey ahead. Yet, let's not ignore the shadows that linger over the Girl. Before this moment, she was shrouded in darkness, carrying a burden that weighed heavily on her heart. Why does she hurt so deeply? Trust me, you'll come to understand her pain-and perhaps, you'll find that in the depths of their shared experiences, they may forge an unbreakable bond that even the harshest trials cannot sever. The tale is just beginning. Stay tuned, for the true essence of their story lies ahead, waiting to be unraveled.Complete
