Forced Bonds by J. Bree

4.0

 The bad thing about reading books that are part of a series back to back is that it's hard to come up with things to say about the books that you haven't already said in the other reviews. I'm still really enjoy these books but this one is probably my least favorite of what I've read so far. This review is going to be slightly spoliery so if you haven't started this series yet please skip this review. From the very beginning of this series I have been vocal about how much I hate Nox. He's my least favorite MMC and for good reason. I honestly don't think he could have ever fully redeemed himself but I was looking forward to learning about his past and why he is the way he is and seeing him grow and possibly come to love Oli. I didn't realize how much I was looking forward to this until the ending of this book. The cliffhangers of these books are going to be the death of me and each one has gradually gotten worse so I'm afraid of what the next books have in store for us. When I read the last sentence of this book my heart was racing and I was on the verge of tears which says a lot of an author can make me feel this way about a character I've hated up until that point. I think the reason this is my least favorite of the books I've read so far is because the focus wasn't on the romance as much in this one which I get but you know I like my romance. Even though it's my least favorite overall I'm still hooked on these characters and their story and I can't wait to read the next book but I'm also a tad bit scared.
