Ummm what? Ok, thank god Oli finally bonds with Gabe, the poor boy was being left in the friend zone for way too long. But are we just gonna ignore what happened with Riley and Giovanna?? What about Sage? Also the ending needs to change asap.

It can not end like that!!! No! My library lone is still a few weeks out 😭 
This was another amazing installment to this series. I love all the twists and turns, as well as getting to be in all the main characters' heads. Gosh these are so fun to listen to! Highly recommend.

I'm obsessed! The continuation of their gifts developing, the plot getting more intense! So much stuff is unraveling and others getting more knotted! I need to know what's coming next!!

Also one of my favorite things about this groups of boys is that they're boys and their humanness makes me laugh so hard.

So the title, “forced bonds”, maybe should have clued us all in, but there is a scene of extremely dubious consent in this book. Just fyi.
