Desperate to prove himself worthy of the only person he’s ever put his trust in, Joey fights to stay away from a world that threatens to destroy everything. But with the odds stacking against him by the day, can he keep his head above water?

Unwilling to give up on the boy she loves, Aoife Molloy fights to save her best friend from the edge of self-destruction. Drowning in a world she doesn’t understand, with only her heart to guide her, Aoife refuses to turn her back on Joey, no matter how badly the odds are stacked against them.

Through heartbreak and horror, Aoife and Joey have had each others backs, and this time is no different.

Come what may.

Irrevocable life changing circumstances, unexpected additions, new schools, and healing hearts all come together in Redeeming 6, the explosive finale for Ballylaggin’s hotheaded lovers.

This is your comeback, kid.

Based in Ireland, the Boys of Tommen series is bound to captivate and lure you into the world of rugby, hurling, love, and teenage heartbreak.

Boys of Tommen #4

Redeeming 6

Sophia

I couldn’t remember the last time I’d gone this long without anything in my system. But I was still here, still trying, still hanging in there. For her.

So he isn't clean?😭 would've been too easy😭

“I am,” I repeated, pissed off. “I haven’t used.”

Mine narrowed in response. “No, it’s not.”

So the Lizzie and Hughie Drama begins👀

“Like you give a shit,” she continued to say. “At least Pierce doesn’t act like I’m invisible when he’s with his friends.”

“You know I give a shit,” he was quick to counter. “If I didn’t care, I wouldn’t—”

“You wouldn’t what, Hugh?” she cut him off by hissing. “You wouldn’t treat me like an afterthought? Because, newsflash, asshole, that’s exactly what you’ve been doing.” 

“Sounds very Gibsie-like.” Katie bit back a laugh. “He’s, uh, well, let’s just say that he’s one of a kind. He sort of lives in his own world.”

B*Witched’s C’est la Vie started to play and I swear to God, this Gibsie boy all but levitated from the couch with excitement, dragging Claire along with him.

“She clearly lives in that world with him,” I mused, feeling myself smile for the first time in weeks, as I watched them.

I cocked a disbelieving brow as I watched them break into an impressive Irish dancing set jig. Completely in sync with each other’s bodies, and with their entire focus on the other, they laughed and danced it out to the beat, uncaring that a huge portion of their schoolmates were watching them.

“No way,” I choked out a laugh. “Boy moves like lord of the dance.”

“Pretty sure his mam made him take Irish dancing lessons in primary school,” Katie giggled. “There’s a bunch of medals on display in the cabinet in Hugh’s front room from Feis competitions that they competed in.”

Taking my hand in hers, she led me onto the dance floor and like the habit of a lifetime, I followed after her, knowing that this girl was by far my greatest addiction.

Shirtless, and propped up against the wall his bed was aligned against, Joey had his head tilted sideways as he slept. He had one hand balled into a fist at his side, while the other hand hung limply around his brother’s waist. Protecting him even in sleep.

Coming from Joey that makes me so emotional😭

“You know, sometimes I really,” I breathed, trailing after her. “Love my life.”

Sure, he was reckless and brash, stubborn and short-tempered, but he was also selfless and thoughtful, determined and dedicated. He was loyal to a fault, and even though he tried his very best to hide it from the world, my god did he have a heart the size of the moon.

“Just wanted you to know that you’re someone’s favorite person in the world.”

“Don’t get soft on me, Molloy,” he teased, but I could hear the emotion he was trying to hide in his voice.

I knew she was scared, so was I, but this had to stop. We couldn’t live like this anymore. If something didn’t give, someone was going to die in that house. It would either be him or me.

“Are you going to send me away again?” he asked in an achingly vulnerable tone, sinking deep inside of me. “Tell me now so I can be ready for it.”

Blowing out a frustrated growl, I turned on my heels and walked towards the PE hall, but only managed to make it about five steps before swinging back around.

I could hear Rambo and the lads cracking up with laughter, and making the mandatory whipped sound as I trailed after my girlfriend like a fucking puppy.

When I caught up with her at the door, she didn’t look behind her when she slid her bag off her shoulder and held it out. Jaw ticking, I begrudgingly took her bag and slung it over my shoulder. Clearing her throat, she folded her arms across her chest, and inclined her chin to the door. Biting back a growl, I stepped around her and held the door open.

I think that right here hurt me most out of anything he ever said

“So, you’re saying if you could go back in time, you would choose the same?” I demanded, furious and unwilling to back down. “You would have aborted Darren?”

“Maybe not Darren, but definitely him,” Teddy spat, and if any other father said that to his son, I was sure there would be eruptions, but Joey didn’t bat an eyelid at his cruelness.

He was used to it. He’d heard it a thousand times before.

“Of course,” I replied, heart-bucking wildly in my chest, as I watched him carefully tear one off the strip and place it in his wallet. “It’s your baby, Joe.”

“Yeah.” Nodding to himself, he placed the sonogram in the picture slot in his wallet and smiled. “He is.”

“We want to keep you!” his wife blurted out, causing John to drop his head in his hands and groan. “All five of you,” she continued, hurrying over to the island and catching ahold of my hand. “Especially you.” She smiled down at me. “I think I want you the most.”

Okay I never hated Lizzie but now I don't get how anyone even could. Thank god, she was there😭😭

“Yeah?” She doubled down and tightened her hold on me. “Then I guess we’re both going under. And please bear in mind that, going off rumors and the color of your eyes, you’re clearly high as hell right now, therefore any decisions you make may be heavily influenced by the shit pooling around in your veins, and not how you would genuinely feel in your right frame of mind.”

For the second time in my life, I was a father. For the first time in my life, I had a child of my own. It felt different now than it had with Ollie, Sean, and Tadhg.

There was something inside of me, an invisible cord of sorts, that went from my chest into his. I felt it every time I laid eyes on him.

It is not as good as the other ones. It deals with the dark side of drug addiction but it gets a bit repetetiv. It is totalt worth a read.

Aleksander.G

I don't need to say anything except that my heart is so very, very broken right now. I really think I need to see a doctor💀 if I could, I would've killed Marrie and Teddy again and again, ENDLESSLY. They're so freaking disgusting, I hate them

This book is horribly sad, I already knew it was going to be like that but wow. 

I have to say tho, I was bored most of it. I think it could have been a little shorter, but I understand that we just needed to see Joey’s journey through addiction. 

After this book I realized Aoife is not my favorite girlie… I mean, she is incredible strong for going through all that with Joey, the SA with that horrible man, the pregnancy. But there were things that made me scream a little. Like the way she talked about the lynch kids sometimes, I understand fully that Joey needed to get out of that whole situation but so did they and they were just kids. 

I also realized that I don’t think anyone will ever make me feel the way Johnny and Shannon did and I will read the next books looking for crumbs of them.

Nothing will ever be better than this book in my mind.

It was amazing, I cried, and laughed, it broke my heart, then glued it back together again.

I really really like this series. But what I have learned after finishing Joey and Aofie’s duet is that I do love Johnny and Shannon’s more. Don’t get me wrong I really liked this story, the angst, the emotion. It was all there and I felt it. But I didn’t feel it as much as I did with Binding and Keeping. Maybe it was the level of investment. While I was invested in all of them this duet I wasn’t needing to finish immediately. I did take a break between the two unlike what I did with book 1 and 2. Also I’m calling out the discretion note at the beginning of this book. I have said this constantly that this is not YA. The topics in this, the spice in this is not YA. So looking at the note in the Bloom copy of the book it says 16+ but the audio which was from done when it was published indie is 18+. I didn’t know this because I physically read book 3 but I listened to this one and no matter how you read it it still isn’t YA. Okay I’ll stop ranting now because it’s something that hasn’t constantly bothered me when this book and other have been picked up as of late. But overall I love this series, I love the found family in this series. It’s an investment, it talks about real things that can be hard for people. But it’s just so good.

This was joeys and aoife’s second book it was a bit boring idk maybe because most of the same events in Shannon’s books I wasn't really motivated to read it however it had its good moments I’m glad joeys finally happy .

my favorite boys of tommen book yet, the amount of times I cried reading this is unreal. Joey and Aoife’s relationship 🥹

✨“You can’t tell me what to do, Joe,” I growled, feeling a combination of drunk and dizzy. “You don’t own me.” “Well, that’s bad fucking luck on my account, because you sure as shit own me!”

✨My life was unpredictable, and my future was bleak, but I had no doubts that wherever I ended up, this girl would forever have a hold over me.

✨Because every part of me loved every part of her. The good, the bad, and the ugly.

✨When she told me that she loved me, she meant it, and it was as unsettling as it was addictive, because if she only felt a fifth for me of what I felt for her, then I was one lucky son of a bitch.

✨“Just wanted you to know that you’re someone’s favorite person in the world.”

✨She had never been someone to pass away the time with until something better came along. She was the time, the better, the goal, the whole nine yards.

✨“I don’t want a life without you in it.”

✨ I didn’t want to leave you,” he admitted and then a heart-wrenching sob tore from his chest. “I only wanted to protect you.” “That’s my job, remember?” I joked through my tears. “I’m the one saving 6.”

✨I excelled at hating the world. Not just the world, but everyone in it. Except for her. Yeah, she was my only exception.

✨“Yeah, well, his mam doesn’t feel so gorgeous anymore,” I mumbled, feeling vulnerable and weirdly exposed. “His mam never looked more gorgeous than she does right now,” Joey corrected. “Six years ago today, I locked eyes on you for the first time, sitting on the wall outside of school, and now we’re sitting here with our son.” Smiling, he leaned in close and kissed me again. “Thanks for my baby, queen. You still take the air clean out of my lungs.”

✨“I will never fail you again.” I could hear the sincerity in his voice, and I needed so badly for him to be right about this. For him to stay. “It’s my turn, Molloy.” He kissed my hair. “To look after you.”

✨“I feel like I died this summer without you and I’m only coming back to life now.”

✨It was her. It always had been. It always would be. The girl from the wall.

✨“Because in this version of forever, we get the happy ending, Molloy.”

** spoiler alert **
           Redeeming 6 and saving 6 follows joeys and aoifes story and boy did this crush my soul. I felt like it went into so much more detail about joeys and Shannon’s family life that if you thought reading Shannon’s pov would break your heart nope joeys destroyed me. I cried so hard for him just because I felt like he went through the most pain out of all the siblings and he deserved so much more for all that he sacrificed that I just wanted to see him be a happy normal teenage boy. It’s like he could never catch a break and I just kept holding my breath. I felt like I had a better understanding of why their mom acted the way she did and how the family dynamic started. And when Aoife said to Johnnys parents that his siblings were his babies like ughhh that broke meeee. He raised them, provided for them, protected them and loved them more than anything. And then his love for Aoife. Where do I even begin! I really felt like she was the light in his dark days that would always bring him back. The way she cared for him and never judged him of his families life. I loved them together! I didn’t want their story to end. I felt like it was just the beginning. Chloe Walsh, I don’t know what’s in your writing but it’s unworldly. I felt every single emotion. It broke me into a million pieces and I will never ever get over it.

this book (more like entire series) has broken me apart and put me back together again so many times
