About this listen

One reckless night shatters her scripted world, and truth won't stay buried for long.

Tabitha Bonaparte Hayes has it all—wealth, privilege, and a place in her family's generational business empire. But in the smoky malaise of 1970s America, she's suffocating under the weight of expectations and a secret she can't outrun.

Fleeing to the shadows of a small North Carolina town, Tabitha constructs an elaborate double life: dutiful companion to a demanding matriarch by day, wild party girl by night. She's hiding behind carefully crafted lies, caught between the sexual revolution's promise of freedom and the faith-driven values etched into her soul.

But the past has a way of catching up. When a bevy of fierce women and one steadfast man see through her masks, Tabitha is forced to confront the wreckage she's been running from. As love threatens to break through her defenses, she faces an impossible choice: continue the charade or fight for redemption and a life worth living.

Tissue is a raw, romantic journey through the contradictions of the 1970s—a story about the courage it takes to face your demons, the power of unlikely connections, and finding a peace far groovier than ever dreamt.

A clean listen with depth: While tackling mature themes and complex moral questions, Tissue offers thoughtful storytelling without graphic content. This is sophisticated women's fiction that respects listeners who prefer clean romance and meaningful exploration of life's gritty realities without explicit scenes.
