Emoji Review by Rebecca Dixon
I just finished Blood Bonds, Book 3 of βThe Bonds That Tieβ series, by J Bree and WOWZA π²π²π²! (This is spoiler-free FYI!)
OK FIRST OFF! The first half of this book is EPIC ππ»! I was so UNBELIEVABLY π² impressed with how the momentum continued from that big cliffhanger at the end of the second book! Honestly, the continuance of the story into the third book and the way that piece is resolved, was BRILLIANT ππ»! So so so good! Soooooo good in fact, that I started messaging my girlfriends and commenting on posts about how BLOWN AWAY π€― I was with the amazing DRAMA π in the first half of this book! Absolutely FANTASTIC ππ». EXCEEDED EXPECTATIONS for sure ππ»! So many times we are let down after a major cliffhanger and I can honestly say, this book did not disappoint! Completely drew me in! π₯³π₯³π₯³
Mannnnnnnn there were SO MANY great π€© moments in this book! We learn quite a bit more about our girl and I have to say Iβm a BIG fan of the βgodlikeβ side ππ»! Completely bada$s ππ»! And her Bondsβ¦ oh boy π₯ oh boy π₯! Iβve got ANOTHER one that Iβm now even MORE crazy about then I was before π₯΅! All I will say isβ¦ itβs about DANG time, oh DARK ONE! π π π But dannngβ¦ the possessive, protectiveness π€Ί of these guys is through the roof and I am HERE FOR IT ππ»ββοΈ. Not to mention a certain somethinβ π somethinβ π scene that begins with a little lookie loo π and ends withβ¦ wellβ¦ π + π + π = π₯π₯π₯! Boo yeah, baby ππ»! πππ
I also really loved π that there is still quite a bit of mystery π around a certain Bond and with that, I LOVE π that we are still in the βDamaged Darkβ on that One! It just makes me super EXCITED π€© about the next book and to learn more about these βvoid-eyedβ Bonds and what the deal-i-o is with certain all-nighter chats! Really, there is still quite a bit of mystery even though quite a bit was revealed ππ»! Makes us want for more while at the same time, get some MUCH needed answers! ππ» Annnnd for all of yβall with some major ANXIETY π¬π¬π¬ from some pretty AGONIZING π©π©π© conspiracy theories from Book 2β¦ just know that YES!, you will have those answers!! Woot ππ»! Woot ππ»!
But I CANNOT β¦ NOT β¦ mention that ending! So! I totally wonβt spoil it πβ¦ but I will say that in true J Bree fashionβ¦ BOOM π₯. Like with the ending of Book 2, a big B0MB π£ is dropped and all I can say is thank the book gods βForced Bondsβ will be out this March because I think everyone & their brother/sister/cousin/spouse/aunt/uncle/mother/grandfather/grandmother/first cousin/cousin removed by some ungodly number (OK you get the gist π ) β¦ NEEDS to know if this is LEGIT or if something else is really up! WE NEED TO KNOW J BREE π©π©π©πππ!
So if you like a bit of a enemies-to-lovers, bully romance, rejected mates VIBE (I say VIBE because it really isnβt one of thoseβ¦ itβs just in itβs own wheelhouse), page-turning action, hot & heavy STEAM π₯, and an ending with a TWIST πͺ β¦ you may want to give this one a go! Itβs free on KU and you never knowβ¦ it may just be the book that binds you!
