Tethered

De: L. D. Davis

Narrado por: Kate Udall

From the New York Times best-selling author of the Accidentally on Purpose trilogy...

"You were born to be mine, and I was born to be yours."

Donya Stewart's chest filled with the soft beating wings of butterflies when she first met Emmet Grayne's green eyes at the ripe age of five. Unable to identify the tugging pressure within her when in his presence, Donya moved through the first several years of her life addled by her feelings for the boy who was her best friend's brother and very much like her own sibling.

But one cool autumn night in her mystifying teenage years, Emmet erases any ideas Donya has of him being anything like a sibling. Donya and Emmet, unable to deny the invisible cord that fetters them together on an incredibly visceral level, begin a long journey on a road abounding with challenges, hurdles, and destructive forces. Their love for one another is absolute, and the emotional link between them is strong, but when they make a series of painful decisions and mistakes that pull them apart, the strength of that tether is challenged.

Donya's career as a model takes her around the world and away from Emmet, who is working hard for his law degree. When Donya makes a hard decision for both of them, the tether between them stretches beyond what seems possible.

"The tether contorted and quivered and groaned in protest."

With age comes maturity and hindsight. Will Emmet and Donya have to live apart and with the consequences of their choices? Happy endings aren't always a guarantee, even for two people who were born into this world for each other. Will the link between them bring them together or prove to ensnare them in heartache?

If you are in search of an angst-filled romance novel, get tied into Tethered....

Note from the author: Tethered is meant for mature listeners over the age of 18. This is a standalone novel - listening to my other published novels is welcome, of course, but not necessary.

tethered by L D Davis

Excellent reading. Highly recommended. The narration was great..Looking forward to reading more of this author's books.

My Long Wait Is Over and Rewarded!

It's been three long years since L D Davis released AOP on Audible. So when I got a tweet that Tethered was coming out I preordered and downloaded it at midnight the second it became available.

All I can say is wow! I loved, loved this story, it's well written and takes place from when Donya was a young child and straight through to adulthood and her long lasting connection to Emmett, her bff's older brother. It's filled with drama and angst but it never feels contrived. It's real world problems.

Don't expect the this to be a pretty love story about perfect people who live perfect lives and never do anything wrong or deceitful and live happily ever after. It's a gritty love story about imperfect real people who make very real mistakes and hurt themselves and others along the way. Kinda like real life if you ask me. That in a nutshell is why I enjoy this authors writing so much, it's like me wrapping gifts at Christmas, yeah it's all wrapped up in a pretty bow in the end, but the carnage to get it there is littered all around.

Great job by the narrator, and here's to hoping we get a lot more on Audible from LD Davis.

Great title

These two people was their own worst enemies. The story was one that pulls you in and you dont want to.put it down. This book had a lot of suffering going on and while they were both stubborn she was queen of stubborn. Although she accomplished what she wanted to do , she was aware and careful about the pitfalls that could affect her life which was awesome for someone so young. It was great that she didn't fall face first into the lifestyle that models succumb to which hurt them. They drug their feet a lot wasting time. Fred told them right. I enjoyed this story very much.

LOVED LOVED LOVED THIS BOOK

The narrator was excellent and the characters were great. Written so well!!!!! I will definitely listen to more books by this author.

Book was interesting but way too long

I started enjoying this book towards the end. I was bored with the young Donya their the years. It took me a while to get thru this book because it took you from youth to adult.
