Blue Cavanaugh thought he'd found his soulmate online, but when he discovers that his "Cowgirl" is Natalie Palmer and that she's been manipulating him, he chalks it up to the fact that nobody can be trusted. When he finds Cass Cavanaugh's diary concealed in one of Natalie's cookbooks, he goes on a bender that leads to a one night stand with waitress, Emily Shiver that barely registers. His life hasn't been the same since the reading of Everett Cavanaugh's will when it was revealed that he is Everett's illegitimate son. Learning that Emily is pregnant with his child leaves Blue feeling more lost and confused than ever. As much as he wants to be there for Emily, she is determined to live her own life, but someone is out there is trying to make her miserable.
Bonded ends The Cavanaugh Brothers' series with Blue's story, providing opportunities for drama that are left unrealized. The romance between Blue and Cass is lukewarm at best. By the time the disappointing solution to the mystery of Cass's death is revealed, the killer has been foreshadowed multiple times, leaving the expectation for a twist unfulfilled. However, the series is successful in telling the story of several characters with very diverse backgrounds and intertwining their lives in a satisfying way. Overall, a decent series that could have been so much more.

This was my first time reading anything by Laura Wright and i’m really glad i did! normally cowboy’s aren't my thing. I know most people love them, and while I like to look at them, I’m they are sexy, It was never a storyline that got my attention but Bonded synopsis intrigued me. I had no expectations from reading this because again, didn't know this writer but i was instantly drawn to Blue and Emily and wound up reading this in one day. And while this seemed to be the last book in the Cavanaugh brothers books it was written as though it could be read as a stand alone. I still felt invested in the main characters as they were new, but i did find that i wanted to read the back story on the other brothers and get to know them individually. There were few sex scenes but the ones that were there were scorching. Mix in with the suspense, drama and mystery and it makes for an excellent story! Laura has gained another fan!
