I almost read this book in one sitting except work came in the way.
Paris and Finn had loads of chemistry. There were a couple of moments when I was worried these two couldn't work through their issues. But their love prevailed all.
There's a moment where Paris stands up to Finn's family and I want to stand up and cheer. The emotional growth between Paris and Finn was palpable. Overall, this was a steamy, satisfying read and I can't wait to read more by Ms. Henri.

3.5 ⭐️ First time reading accidental pregnancy trope & IM not much of a fan. This relationship was a rollercoaster and I didn’t feel a connection to the story. The trials & tribulations Finn & Paris went through were rough but at the end they got the HEA.
✨ I received this book as an ARC for my honest review✨

This was a great book with interactions from characters we have read about in the past (if you have read her other books) and new characters that the reader can't help but root for. I really enjoyed this book and can't wait for the next one.
Maxine Henri has created such a great experience with this story. The two characters were a dynamic duo of passion and sexual tension. As Paris learned to push beyond her limits was such as fun journey to read. And as Finn explored who Paris was as a person and broke ties with some of his own expectations… definitely a very interesting and unique piece.
Just finished Maxine Henri's Reckless Bond and oh, what a treat it was! This one gets 4 out of 5 stars from me and I'm wholeheartedly recommending it to all the hopeless romantics out there.
Henri has woven an engaging tale of passion, love and a tad bit of mystery, keeping me hooked from cover to cover. The characters are well-drawn, each with their unique quirks and complexities that make them feel so real. The chemistry between the leads had my heart fluttering and their emotional journey was both heartwarming and gut-wrenching.
The plot, while playing with some familiar tropes, was skillfully crafted, offering a good mix of predictability and surprises that made for a satisfying read. I found myself completely absorbed, rooting for the characters and their love story.
Henri's eloquent writing style is a sheer joy to read, her ability to bring her characters and their emotions to life is truly commendable.
One star less because at times, the storyline felt a bit predictable. But, it's a minor flaw in an otherwise stellar book.
So, if you're in for a beautiful love story with all the feels, give Reckless Bond a try. I'm sure you won't be disappointed.

This book was 3.5 stars for me.
I love a surprise pregnancy trope as soon as I see it I will read it.
The way Finn and Paris meet is quite funny at first with her stealing his coffee and giving it to someone else in need. But when Finn calls her by her twins name she goes along with it for one night and that one night then leads to two pink lines.
I actually liked Paris and how she was honest about what she expected out of Finn for the baby. However, as the story continued I felt Paris was all over the place and not quite who I thought she would be like how we saw her at beginning of the book.
Finn...I won't lie I struggled with his character. I didn't agree with a lot of his decisions and felt he should have communicated so much more vs demanding or assuming it was all going to go how he wanted it to. But when you meet his family you understand a lot of what he had growing up so you kind of give him some slack. I wish he groveled a bit more but I always think MMCs should grovel more.
Thank you to The Author Agency for the arc of this book.

𝗧𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗲𝘀: one night stand, accidental pregnancy, enemies to lovers, one bed, forced proximity, he falls first
I loved this book, and how the author wrote it.
Paris has always felt inferior to her twin, but when a handsome man named Finn mistakes her for her sister, she embraces how this makes her feel and ends up having a one night stand with him. This hot night leaves them with a little surprise that will keep them tied for the rest of their lives.
At the beginning of the relationship, they still don't know how to communicate and don't give themselves time to process how they'll take care of a baby, but eventually they start to get to know each other better, get feelings and form a couple. Naturally, there are still things that affect their happiness, but even so, in the end, their love wins.
I loved how the author wrote the development of the characters. We see so clearly the development of both Paris and Finn. The author is an ace in this aspect, and that's one thing I love about her books. I can't wait to see what happens in the next book in the series.
Thank you Maxine Henri for the opportunity to read this amazing book in exchange for an honest review.

I have to say this is such a cute love story! There so many parts that I was either laughing at or like "oh damn!!!" And blushing. I read this book in one day and honestly I think it's such a good story. It isn't your typical rich man falling for a normal person. No, they both come from a rich family. So it's the struggle that they both deal with while helping each other out. There is some smuf in it but not to crazy which I actually like. It is part of a series but is a standalone. I would definitely give this book a read!
