These Twisted Bonds

I. Am. Reeling. Lexi freaking Ryan! This was such an amazing conclusion to this duology. I couldn't stop reading, and the pacing was perfect. These Twisted bonds picks up right where These Hollow Vows left off, and the story continues to follow our female main character, Abriella. After the betrayal she is feeling after the events of book 1, she finds it extremely difficult to trust anyone. The love triangle between Sebastian and Finn continues in this book, and in my opinion, is much more prevalent than in These Hollow Vows. I find in love triangles, we always root for one character over the other. I found the plot of this book hard to predict, which I loved, and it only made me devour the book to seek resolution. This book is classified as young adult, but y'all... she is a steamy YA. There is lots of sexual tension- which we love- and the pay off was perfect for the tone of the series. This book ticks so many boxes for me: intriguing plot, twists and unexpected turns, one horse trope, and bits of forced proximity. This book is YA fantasy, 16+ for sexual content
