I really don’t appreciate that emotional heart string pulling cliffhanger.
I always like to think authors won’t “go there”… I’m dying to know how this all will play out.
I’m wrecked

“The poor girl has to deal with five alpha males with huge egos, overprotective tendencies, and impossible safety standards… “

Oli and her men are building relationships stronger and building a house! I loved reading how each bond loves Oleander the way she deserves.
Spicy scenes are totally here.

The tone is still so juvenile. It is driving me crazy. The book took me a little longer to get through because there was a lot of nothing happening except sex. Lots of sex, which is always great, but give me some story too. It felt like the characters were running around doing nothing. The ending though. Oof. It's rough. There has to be some twist for the cliffhanger at the end. I am committed and enjoyed it more, but I think that's mostly a trauma bond with the characters of how poorly the book is written. :D

this is the fourth book in the bonds that tie series.

oli finds herself on the front lines of the war against the resistance. she has her bonds by her side, but will that be enough?

this book was pretty interesting and i’m glad we got to see a lot of character and relationship development. it seems like most of oli’s bonds are working to put aside their differences which was nice to see.

i will say that i’m pretty happy with the ending since i had been secretly hoping for that outcome throughout the book. however, i have a feeling the author will take back this decision in the next book…i guess i’ll just have to see!
