A Family Tied Together is a story based on real challenges that her family has faced throughout the years as they each grow into adulthood and experience life on their own. As a teenager, Lucille Haney was a dreamer. She dreamed of having a better life, but the one thing she dreamed of having the most seemed so far out of reach. Frank James was the high school stud and the man of her dreams, but he was attached and, to everyone who knew them, Lucille was out of his league. Even so, she believed in fate and this belief is what would not only bring the two of them together but would start an extended family whose lives would be filled with not only ups and downs, but the eventual realization that there is no bond greater than the one they all share, each other.
