About this listen
Nothing will ever be the same again.
Our bonded group has been torn apart, and the monsters are now the prey.
But we’re not going to just wait around for our enemy to strike. The blood on his hands is unforgivable, and the god living inside of me wants her revenge paid in blood.
And a thousand souls.
We have been pushed to the limit, tested in ways that have devastating outcomes, and paid the ultimate price. Can we recover from such losses? Is the promise of a world without our enemy worth the sacrifices we’ve made?
Can we prove to everyone, and ourselves, that together, our bonds are unbroken?

Story106
After the death of my mother and her Bonded, I was relieved to find my own Bonds. I was sure everything would be okay if I had them. It wasn’t. The fate of our people is in my hands, and I know we’re better off if I’m alone. After five years on the run, I’m caught and dragged back to face the men I ran away from. I thought I was doing the right thing. Now, I’m not so sure.

Story138
When Pestilence comes for Sara Burn’s town, one thing is certain: everyone she knows and loves is marked for death. Unless, of course, the angelic-looking horseman is stopped, which is exactly what Sara has in mind when she shoots the unholy beast off his steed. Too bad no one told her Pestilence can’t be killed. Now the horseman, very much alive and very pissed off, has taken her prisoner, and he’s eager to make her suffer. Only, the longer she’s with him, the more uncertain she is about his true feelings towards her, and hers towards him. And now, well, Sara might still be able to save the world, but in order to do so, she'll have to sacrifice her heart in the process.

Story3
Cameron Mortem has a problem—he can't stop killing his partners. Officially labeled clinically insane, he's also one of the most lethal assets in the Dark Forces, a brutal underground military operation built on obedience, survival, and silence. But an experimental drug has fractured his control, making him a liability whenever someone else is on the field. As punishment, he's thrown back into the Under Trials—a merciless boot camp designed to break the weak and sharpen the ruthless. His one directive? Don't kill the new girl.

There are whispers about what lurks in Witch Knell—the forest where sinners go to die. The villagers call it The Eating Woods because what's taken is never given back. Only those who've lost their senses would dare to go near it. Or the banished. Maevyth Bronwick knows better than to breach the misty labyrinth of trees, but a tragic turn of events compels her beyond the archway of bones to a boundary no mortal has crossed before. One that cloaks a dark and fantastical world that's as dangerous as it is alluring. It's there that he dwells, the cursed lord of Eidolon.

Never stop running. And no matter what, never let the world know who you really are. I’ve spent my whole life hiding. Training. Preparing. Hoping that no one will discover my secrets. What I can do. Who I am. And I’ve gotten so good at it, sometimes even I forget. Until them. The wolf pack with a ruthless reputation and a penchant for revenge. The protective fighter. The charming Brit. The shy hacker. The silent mercenary. The cruel assassin. They see more than anyone ever has before. And even with demons of their own, they give me sanctuary.

Welcome to Georgian England, circa 1800. Alastair Thorne is a cad and a rake. Even his mother told him so. Pity for her that he cannot bring himself to care, for he relishes his life of debauchery and licentiousness, and is content thinking of no-one but himself. Except Alastair may have just messed with the wrong fair maiden, and his life is about to be cut violently short. That is until he comes face to face with the enigmatic stranger who's been watching him from afar.

Then, she stumbles in to my domain, lost and frightened, alone and confused. And I terrify her even more. She calls me the devil, so I show her pleasure, like only the devil can. I am the heat that stirs her flesh, the longing that trembles her bone. She begs her body to refuse, to escape my embrace, but I am her master, the puppeteer of passion. I am the King of Flesh and Bone. Welcome to my court, little one.

📚E-BOOK📚 & 🎧AUDIO🎧
OMG, this 5th book! If you remember, I finished the 4th one ugly crying, so of course, I started Tragic Bonds in the same emotional state. J. Bree really gave us a LOT in this one, and finally, we get to unravel the mystery of Nox’s story.
The evolution of Oli and Nox’s bond was so emotional—I don’t think they could’ve reached this point any other way. Watching Nox shift from pure hatred to full-on “touch her and die” obsession was SO satisfying. His backstory was utterly heartbreaking, but that shower scene? So sweet. The amount of growth he’s gone through is honestly one of my favorite parts of the book. I was right—he’s definitely my favorite.
The action in Tragic Bonds also ramps up, with the guys working more cohesively to take down the resistance and threats like Davies. But… midway through, things got a little repetitive, and I found myself zoning out a bit. And without spoiling anything, the big anticipated scenes? They didn’t quite hit as hard as I wanted. I was hoping for more pain, more drama—it all wrapped up too quickly.
The gods, though? Obsessed. Their connection with Oli’s bond is unexpectedly sweet, and I really hope it stays that way.
The ending delivers a mean cliffhanger, but compared to the last two books, it didn’t wreck me as much. I survived this one (barely), but I have full faith that J. Bree is gearing up for an explosive finale. I cannot wait!
Emotional, Intense, but Missing That Final Punch
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
There soul bond is amazing and so wonderful I’m glad it didn’t make their past trauma magically disappear but rather give them a silent strength just knowing each others needs without voicing them.
There’s also action, redemption, the saying hello & goodbye to family members. As well as some good spice and her bonds each discovering new abilities or gods within themselves. I can’t believe there’s only 1 book left!
So much happens in this book & again ends on a cliffhanger
