Chloe Walsh

Chloe Walsh is a number one Sunday Times, Irish Times, New York Times, and USA Today bestselling author from West Cork, Ireland, whose Boys of Tommen series became a global BookTok phenomenon. She has been writing and publishing New Adult and Adult contemporary romance for over a decade, but it was the Tommen series that brought her international fame. Binding 13, the first book in the Boys of Tommen series, is set at an Irish secondary school and follows the intense relationship between Johnny Kavanagh, a talented rugby player under enormous pressure, and Shannon Lynch, a new student hiding dark secrets. The series is known for its raw emotional honesty, its frank exploration of trauma, mental health, domestic violence, and teenage vulnerability, and the tenderness of its central love story. The books went viral on TikTok, selling millions of copies worldwide. Walsh's writing is heavily influenced by her own experiences, and she addresses difficult real-life issues — abuse, anxiety, pressure — with unflinching honesty and compassion. Her audiobooks and books offer listeners and readers emotionally devastating yet ultimately hopeful romance that takes teenage experiences seriously and treats its characters with genuine care.
