The Strongest Bond is an action packed, romantic novel that will take you on a journey of self-discovery, faith, and a hope that love can last forever.

When Jim Anderson, the nation's most prolific high school soccer player, decides to turn down multiple full-ride scholarships to play for a smaller university close to home, the soccer world is stunned. On the field, Jim is a warrior. He is attractive, strong, and athletic but particularly awkward in social situations. In truth, he makes it all the way through high school never finding a steady girlfriend.

Jim's presence at the university quickly brings hope to the struggling soccer program and puts them on the path of a championship season. What he does not anticipate is meeting Sydney, a beautiful and slightly rebellious freshman. Their relationship is awkward at first, but quickly blossoms until the couple is inseparable. With the hope of an NCAA tournament appearance in sight, tragedy disastrously strikes. The pain becomes more than Jim can bear and his life begins to spiral out of control. He is forced to reexamine everything he once believed to be true. Will an unlikely miracle save Jim from self-destruction and restore the trust of his first love?

5.0 out of 5 stars Sweet Mother and Son story
Reviewed in the United States on May 14, 2017

This is an inspirational story of Jim, a star soccer player in college with full support from his loving parents, especially his mom. This book explores their relationship, his ripple effect on his classmates, what it means to be a man in LDS culture, and life as a person of faith at college. I enjoyed reading it, and would have liked to see even more, which is a good thing. Where and when did he worship? Did he find a peer faith group? Why was UofE the choice? Did his mom seek treatment for mental illness? What was the KY ward like?

This is a very nice read.

Sometimes you just need a feel good, sit by the pool story. Family values, characters with integrity. Felt like this was written just for me as I watch my son grow up and become his own man. I enjoyed the story and related to the characters. I cried like a baby at times and cheered for the son as he found his way through life. Great first book!

Great read, I had a hard time putting it down. It is easy to see life through Jim's eyes, to feel his excitement and pain. You just want things to turn out okay for him, and I won't spoil it.

Saw this advertised on tv and it sounded good. I actually was a little disappointed. I liked the idea of the story but didn't love the writing style. What bothered me the most was the number of spelling & grammatical errorrs. One or two I could maybe overlook but there were many mistakes! Did anyone even edit this book?

The anger towards God for all the unanswered questions was perfectly shown in Jim's resentful behavior. Lot of soccer (alright it was necessary). Overall a good book.
