But with both their families on the line, will they choose their blood? Or each other?
My Thoughts
Quick little spicy kidnapping novelette.
It was an enjoyable read, and the spice was written well!! It was very steamy and enjoyable. The rest of the story was quick, but being a short novelette that is to be expected.
The 2 main characters dynamic was really interesting. How easy is it to be scared of/hate someone you are extremely attracted to? Can you stay scared of them, or does your attraction dampen that fear? Does them kidnapping you make a difference? Does their father kidnapping your sister make a difference?
The one thing I would have liked to see more of is the character development and plot development. Now, it is a novelette so that means it is a short story and there wasn’t a ton of space for more of that, but I would have liked to know a bit more about them.
If you are looking for a fast and spicy kidnapper read, then pick The Ties That Bind by Piper Rhodes up!
