Keeping 13 (Los chicos de Tommen 2)

Keeping 13 continues the bestselling Los chicos de Tommen saga from Chloe Walsh, the follow-up to Binding 13 that captured the attention of YA and romance readers on TikTok and beyond. This Spanish edition (Castellano) published by Montena offers readers a deeper, more emotional exploration of love, identity, and resilience set against the backdrop of Irish school life and competitive sport.

In this second installment, the easy part — falling in love — is now behind Johnny Kavanagh and Shannon Lynch. Johnny, once the unstoppable rugby star, is forced to confront a career-altering injury that leaves him sidelined, questioning who he is without his jersey and his dreams. Struggling with loss and insecurity, he finds himself drawn back to Shannon in ways he never anticipated. 

Shannon, meanwhile, faces her own battle. Having returned from Dublin with emotional scars and the heavy responsibility of protecting her younger siblings, she finds herself retreating behind walls she’s built from fear and survival instinct. Haunted by her past, she buries her dreams while trying to hold together the few fragments of her future she believes are left. 

Their bond, forged in earlier pages, is tested as secrets come to light that threaten to unravel both their hearts and their paths forward. As Johnny tries to fight his way back — not just to the sport he loves but to a life that feels whole again — Shannon must decide whether she can risk letting someone in again after so much silence and pain. 

Perfect for readers of contemporary YA, sports romance, and emotionally charged slow-burn stories, Keeping 13 blends heartfelt character growth with relationship dynamics that resonate long after the last page.
