Brilliantly easy read, with a quick pace and the most perfect tension between the FMC and her bonds.

Firstly, oh. my. god!!! This series is amazing!! This is book 1/6 from ‘The Bonds That Tie’ series. I won’t lie, I read all of this series in the space of a week! This is reverse harem, which I usually don’t vibe with because it’s just authoris trying to write as many sex scenes as possible. This series, however has an extra element to it and gives more of a layer to the reverse harem trope. When I tell you I’m obsessed with all of these men, I mean it. I was outraged by the guys’ treatment of Oli, how dare they hurt my baby, however there is some damn good character development throughout this series. I love the originality of the storyline and the ideas around ‘Bonds and their Bonded’ along with the supernatural element that’s alluded to, it’s fresh and kept me interested. (There may have been a lot of swooning on my part over Atlas-bloody-Bassinger as well.

starts slow with a mystery. why did Oli leave? North and Nox are instantly dislikable whilst Gabe is a sweetheart the others fall somewhere between these two.overall I really enjoyed this novel and have already started book 2

J. Bree’s The Bonds That Tie series is an emotionally intense and action-packed take on the reverse harem genre. With a fierce, flawed heroine and deeply complex relationships, the story explores themes of trust, redemption, and fate versus free will. While the pacing can feel stretched at times, the raw character development and slow-burn tension keep you hooked. If you love morally grey characters, high-stakes romance, and a touch of dark fantasy, this series is a must-read!

This was without a doubt the trashiest book I’ve ever attempted to read. The writing was just awful. Avoid avoid avoid
