I enjoy this series about the Cauld Ane clan. I hope she does more about them.

I have to admit that I love the Cauld Ane series. They are a unique immortal in that they don't need blood like vampires. They eat, sleep and interact like humans unless it is over 68 degrees. They cannot take the heat. It can kill them. Needless to say you won't find any of the Cauld Ane in Arizona.

In book four we explore the romance between Maximillian and Grace Wilson. This isn't a simple fall in love story. Max is Cauld Ane. Grace Wilson is human and knows nothing of the unique race. Max first sensed Grace at a concert in Scotland. He even met her backstage and then she disappeared.

Max now searches the United States for his mate. She has moved from her apartment. She has moved from the town she was living. He is frustrated. He is angry. Tensions are rising. And when he finds her what will he do??? His solution is so simple and yet so complicated. I loved it!!!!

The romance made me giddy. The courtship was so sweet. Max's determination was inspirational. The HEA was fantastic because they worked at it.

I have read all nine of Tracey's Civil War Brides books, and all four of her Cauld Ane books. Once again, Tracey does not disappoint! Bound By Song is my favorite so far in the Cauld Ane series. I like that the climax of this book did not involve people trying to kill the characters. Instead, it was a touching and serious situation which, coupled with Tracey's emotional writing, moved me to tears. As always, I was left craving more at the end! I find myself wishing I was Cauld Ane because this series draws you into a different world so beautifully created by Tracey. This series is so good that I bought the whole set for a loved one for Christmas. :)

I received this book for an honest review. Another great story in the Cauld Ane Series! I loved reading Max and Graces story, it is always fun to see a bad boy fall in love with a good girl. Grace is a strong heroine who does not let Max's charm over come her, it is great to see him work for Grace's approval. Max is an alpha male who normally does not have to work for female attention until he meets his mate!I love Piper's insta love stories but it is fun to read one where the heroine give the hero a run for his money! I would say that you don't have to read the other books in the series to understand the story line .... but you should because they are amazing! This book has romance, witty banter, a sassy heroine and a alpha hero, it is a must read book!

Fun extension of the series

The series has now moved on from the Grunnach Brothers to the MacMillan brothers who were strong featured characters in the first three books. This book centers on Max and Grace Wilson, a woman briefly mentioned in an earlier book. The dynamic here is interesting as Max knows she’s his mate but she wants nothing to do with him and has the power to resist him where other women have not. Most of the book deals with their building a relationship and Grace struggling to trust him and accept that he could possibly want her.

As in previous books there are story holes, things brought up and then just left dangling. Max isn’t as likable a character as the previous male protagonists. We don’t get to know Grace as well as we did previous female protagonists. Thus it was harder to really connect with this couple. You also really have to have read the earlier books or this book would really leave you hanging in both understanding the other characters and the Cauld Ane. Grace’s reaction to Max once she turns 25 is also not portrayed the same way as in the first three books.

The book is good just not quite as enjoyable as the first three.
