Tyler Grace was many things: A myth. An outcast. A hero. My prince.

My childhood and innocence were stolen when I was kidnapped at five years old. For eleven years I clung to my childhood fairytale books waiting for the prince I hoped would someday save me and carry me off to a happily ever after.

But I had no idea my savior would come in the form of a scarred recluse, covered in tattoos, who can't--or won't--speak a word. But the moment our eyes met I knew he was the one. My prince.

Tyler Grace is haunted by his tragic past and he's sentenced himself to a lifetime of solitude in the woods. He's as lost in society as I am; scarred just as much on the inside as the outside. Just like me.

He saved my life that day he found me and killed my captor with his bare hands. I was warned to stay away from him, but I can't stop thinking about him. I ache to hear his voice and see him smile. And I want nothing more than to be the one to break through his walls. I think he's the only one who can break through mine, too.

Together we can have love, happiness, and a closeness that once felt impossible to have. But can we overcome the horrible twisted past that ties us together?

** This story has a happy ending** Tied can be read as a standalone book.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"I dare you not to fall in love with Tyler Grace! Carian Cole is a master storyteller. She never fails to bring her characters to life, and Tyler and Holly's story is no exception. Beautifully poetic, Tied is a journey of two damaged souls who find love and healing in each other." - USA Today Bestselling Author, Gemma James

"There's not a human on earth who has not suffered some kind of heartbreak. Some are small and everyday "normal", others are like earthquakes threatening to shred us to bits. Carian Cole tells the stories of these heartbreaks better than anyone. She deals with the taboo, the scary and the weird like no other writer working today. The story of Ty and Holly will break you and then stitch you back together page by page. There is a fairytale at play here, a fairytale of broken loves and broken lives stitched back together by the golden thread of hope, pain and desire." - KarenTWilson, Amazon review

"Carian Cole has once again spun a tale so heart wrenchingly beautiful that I'm pretty sure I'm going to need a few days to recover from this one. When I finished Tied, I almost wanted to cry simply because it was over." - TVB, Amazon review
"This story was so emotional but wonderful. Both characters have suffered emotionally, physically and mentally from different traumatic events. Even though they are devastatingly broken and struggle to cope with their pasts, we see how utterly perfect they are for one another. Holly and Tyler begin to heal together. You can feel all of the characters emotions through Carian's words. All of the pain from their traumas bleed from the pages and grab onto your heart. Some of the characters from her previous books make appearances and we are also given a little more insight to upcoming characters. I absolutely FLOVED this book. I am a huge Carian fan but was not prepared for Tied it literally obliterated me! This story was extraordinary" - Amanda the Babbling Bibliophile

"I read a lot and there are very few books that I can honestly say, stick with me. This is one of those books. I will definitely be reading Tied over and over again. And I definitely will recommend to anyone!" -Katie Silvi

"Wow! This was such an unconventional, beautiful fairy tale. Monsters are real, and if you truly believe, Fairy Tales do come true. I loved Ty. He is so withdrawn and gruff, but only with Holly, does he show his soft, tender side. He is so gentle with her, so sweet. This was an exceptionally well-written story. Yes, it deals with horrific events in both of the characters lives, but they are handled and written with care and compassion. Such a beautiful story. Plan plenty of time to read this book. Because once you start you won't want to stop. Settle in, grab your tissues and fall in love with Ty and Holly." - Dotti Elrick

five star romance between two wounded people

Reviewed in the United States on April 30, 2024

Verified Purchase

All of Carian Cole's books are essentially fated mate books, with a fairytale theme, in often a dark setting.

Tied was most likely the darkest book I've read (which isn't saying much since I don't tend to enjoy books that make me upset or sad). But it was also a beautiful story of two people that deserved love and were able to find it together.

In Tied, taking place in small town New Hampshire, Tyler Grace is walking in the woods when he hears something and is able to save Holly Daniels, who had been kidnapped at the age of 5.

Tyler had his own demons, beginning with being burned in a fire as a teenager, and having a major motorcycle accident, both affecting his appearance and how the people around him treated them.

It is a difficult read to hear about Holly's story (it is discussed in the past tense, and not very graphically) but the relationship that develops between her and Tyler (her "prince") make slogging through it worth the struggle.

Cole tells their story in probably the best way possible, only giving background in order to further the story, and focusing on the romance between two tortured souls.

Because of the dark content I also want to emphasize that there is a happy ending for both of them.

I received a promotional copy and am giving an honest review.

Incredible!

I absolutely love this book. Tyler and Holly were the best couple. I loved how much they understood each other and were able to navigate each other's traumas.

Holly was such a great character because as naive as she was from being held captive for so long, she was so strong and bold. She was determined to live the life she deserved and she was determined to break through Tyler's brick wall.

Tyler was a tough nut to crack, but when he did he was amazing. He was so sweet and attentive to Holly and let her take her time discovering what she likes. He never held her back and, in most cases, helped her move forward when no one else would.

My heart broke throughout this whole book and there were definitely some moments that were hard to digest. This book was absolutely fantastic and I highly recommend it to anyone who needs a break from rom coms and lighthearted books.

Holly and her Knight

This story was extremely different than book 1. I did enjoy the age gap and how their story spans over years and years. I love that Holly can see in Tyler what the world overlooks. Now I do think it was wrapped up a little quickly and a little too perfectly, but overall it was a really good story.

I've loved everything I have read by Carian Cole in the past and have no idea why I never read this one but I am so glad I finally did. If you have read Torn, you know some about Tyler, the brother in the woods who longer connects with people or his family for the most part. Tied is Tyler's story and it is a doozy. We find out what happened to him - why he is so "asshole-ish" and why he chooses to distance himself from his loved ones. His act of heroism thrusts him back into the world in some ways and little does he know how his life is about to change. Everything happens for a reason is a tough pill to swallow for both Holly and Tyler but in this case, the terrible things they have both been through have brought them together in order to finally heal. While difficult to read with certain triggers, it was delicately written by Carian.

Beautifully tragic story!

Reviewed in the United States on April 29, 2024

Tied is book two in the All Torn Up series of interconnected standalones. This is Tyson (Toren’s brother from book one) and Holly’s story. And what a beautiful and heartbreaking story it is! This is a story of two broken souls finding each other and learning to love themselves and finding happiness. They both have tragic pasts and had me crying more than once! I absolutely loved both of these characters but Tyson was everything! I loved the way he was with Holly and his pets. He has a kind sole but others don’t want to look past his disability…and his grumpy attitude. But Holly breaks down those walls and wants nothing more than for her prince to be happy and loved. This was one of the most beautiful stories I’ve ever read and one I think everyone should read!

I enjoyed this book and would rate it 4.9 out of 5 if I could. The only reason for the deduction is a limited graphic sex. NOT necessary. Did you really mean that Tyler and Holly died in 2070??

Twistedly sweet and dark at the same time.

Reviewed in the United States on November 19, 2021

Verified Purchase

I really was sucked into this book. I was intrigued by their circumstances. It opens with Ty finding a captive girl in the woods and is written in a way that has you immediately see how connected they are to one another. I loved how these two people were interwoven and twisted by pain and darkness and yet they both came out of it and chose to live in very different ways. Ty absolutely caved under the weight of his problems and Spirals out of control into a den of self pity and remorse. And all the while she is trying to climb out of the pit she spent most of her life in with good cheer and a good heart. I was frustrated by her family and how her life was going. And the book really never addressed it fully. I also didn’t like how dark Ty was with his secret desire for his women to fear him. It felt pointless because it’s brought up a lot in his point of view and it takes him to dark places etc and yet it’s never brought up to Holly. She just brightens him and he no longer has dark desires with her. Idk I didn’t care for that aspect. It felt counterproductive to the story kind of like the bad mother and never addressed. But overall I loved their dynamic and sweet ending. I also wanted more steam. They should have been on fire.

What a wonderful book. Very emotional and heartbreaking but it also gives you hope for the future after having gone through such horrible experiences. I loved it. And here I was thinking Asher's book was the most emotional one. I love reading books where emotions and feelings pour out of the pages and make the reader feel every emotion possible and you start to believe you are the main character. Only then do you know the book is perfect. Like really, really great. That was what I was feeling reading this book and I loved every second of it.

Complicated feelings.

Reviewed in India on July 20, 2021

Verified Purchase

At first, I was afraid to read this because of the history of torture in both their lives but I was glad to find out it didn't have much page-time nor was it painted in descriptive details. Their love felt genuine, sweet, healing. But sometimes during the read, I felt confused, like was bombarded with too many feelings at once. Like I can't sort through all the feelings but wanted more of it regardless. Overwhelming, yes but beautiful nonetheless. Also I wanted more intimate scenes but they came too late in the book and only lasted for like the last 25% of the book.
