Keeping 13 by Chloe Walsh picks up right where Binding 13 left off, and holy crap, it’s an emotional gut-punch. Johnny Kavanagh, the rugby god of Tommen College, is sidelined by a brutal injury, his dreams of going pro hanging by a thread. He’s lost without his number 13 jersey, but Shannon Lynch, the shy girl with midnight-blue eyes, is his new obsession. Shannon’s barely holding it together after a traumatic trip to Dublin, hiding scars—physical and emotional—from an abusive home while trying to shield her little brothers. Their love’s the real deal, but it’s tested hard as secrets spill, family drama explodes, and the past creeps back to haunt them. Set in Ireland’s rugby-crazed world, this 900-page beast is packed with heart, pain, and hope, with side characters like Gibsie stealing scenes with his goofy charm. It’s a tearjerker that wraps up Johnny and Shannon’s story but leaves you aching for more.

Who Should Read It? This is for fans of angsty sports romance who love slow-burn, friends-to-lovers vibes, or anyone who’s into deep, character-driven YA that tackles tough stuff like abuse and trauma. If you sobbed through Binding 13 and want a love story that fights through the dark, this is your jam—just check the trigger warnings for heavy themes and keep tissues ready.
