TIES. From the perspective of a young, ever changing, optimistic and free spirited 18 year-old-girl, Ashton, comes the story of her new life. After leaving her small town home, she escapes to Seattle to attend University. Ashton has always had her life dreams set out in front of her, yet she was always told to be realistic, that her life would never turn out the way she wanted it to, yet her she was. Majoring in Art, Ashton had dreamed all her life to open and own her own Art Gallery... the University of Seattle was the first of many steps to making her dream... become her reality. But, a few weeks in to first term she notices Logan, a tall, tattooed boy. By some... considered an outcast. Will Ashton's dreams become her reality, or after her few meetings with Logan, will her ties to him become stronger than her dream?
