Unbroken Bonds: The Bonds that Tie, Book 6

Tammy Manning

I'm not ready to say goodbye to these characters

"This series has had it’s claws in me from the very beginning and now that it’s over, I don’t quite know what to do with myself. I had been anxiously awaiting this last book and even though the release was pushed back a month, it was totally worth the wait. These characters had already been through so much before we got to this book, but as it turns out they still had so much more to go through because now, the real war has begun. Every moment of this book held my attention from that first line to the very end. Seriously, I downloaded the book and saw the first line and started cussing because I had to go to work instead of being able to start reading. There was so much action and even though this was the last book there was still a lot to learn. And the spice…oh boy the spice is just 🥵🥵🥵, including a few scenes that I have been wanting for awhile (and I know for a fact that I wasn’t only one). I don’t want to say to much because I really don’t want to spoil anything…and there’s a lot that can be spoiled! So I’m just going to wrap it up by saying that I got answers to questions that I’ve been waiting for, and some that I didn’t even know I had. This entire series has been a journey. And while I have loved the story and plot lines along the way, my favorite part has been the characters and the incredible growth that we’ve seen from all of them. It’s no secret that I could not stand Nox at the beginning of this series, but now he’s tied with North for my second favorite guy. (Gryphon has been my favorite since book 2, and he we will forever hold that spot.) Seriously though, Nox had the most and best character growth through this entire series. And it’s not just the individual character growth that I loved, but also their growth together. The group as a whole has been slowly becoming closer and closer, with a few notable exceptions. But in this book we finally get to see them being a complete unit and not have as much antagonism between Nox and Atlas. Seeing them really work together and get along just made my little heart so happy. This is going to be my favorite series that I’ve read this year and will probably be one of, if not my number 1, absolute favorite series ever. And this book just solidified that for me because it just brought everything together and to an ending that I loved. (I do hope that we get some type of a bonus later down the road where we get to see them further in the future.) The last book in a series is always little bittersweet because while you’re excited for the characters to get their HEA, you’re also sad to say goodbye to them. Luckily you can always revisit with rereads and audiobooks, which I already know I will be listening to multiple times a year. ["

Great conclusion

"𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘉𝘰𝘯𝘥𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘛𝘪𝘦 series by @⁣jbree⁣ ⁣⁣ •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••⁣⁣⁣ 𝐒𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐲: ⁣⁣Oli is a central bond who has been on the run for the past 5 years, ever since her parents died. When she is finally found and “returned” to her bonds, it becomes clear they aren’t her biggest fans since she ran from them…some even hate her. What they don’t understand is that she ran to keep them safe. Now she’s back and has to figure out how to save the world…again.⁣ ⁣⁣⁣ •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••⁣⁣⁣ 𝐓𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐬: ⁣Holy. Cannoli.⁣ Okay. When book one was originally released, I downloaded it, read the first page and said “nope.” Now I’m kicking myself because this series is so fricken good!!! When I say I devoured the first four books in about two days, I’m not even exaggerating. J Bree is a master at writing slow burns that I just want to keep reading. The premise for the series is so creative, too. Every book had its own strengths and focus. Every cliffhanger absolutely slayed me (book 4, I’m looking at you most of all). And then the ending of the while series had me breathing a sigh of relief. I love this series. To me, this is a true new adult RH series. I have convinced people to read this series, and getting their updates honestly gives me life. I legitimately love every single one of the bonds (some took longer than others to get there) and don’t have a clear favorite most days. Atlas? Gryphon? Gabe? North? Nox? Let’s be real…shadow puppy for the win. ⁣😂 The way this series sucked me in immediately is crazy. And for it to be a story that was in the back of my mind the entire year?? NUTS! I am so jealous of everybody that gets to read it for the first time uninterrupted. PLEASE send me all of your thoughts so I can live vicariously through you! ⁣⁣⁣ •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••⁣⁣⁣ 𝐎𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐑𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧:⁣ This series is right up there with some of my other favorite series. If you’ve been wanting to try PNR, this is a great choice because it’s not too crazy bananas out there. Also…it’s J Bree. ⁣ ⁣⁣⁣ •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••⁣⁣⁣ #thebondsthattie #jbree #romancebooks #spicybooks #bookstagram #reader #teacherswhoread #bookreviews #romance #happilyeverafter #review #romancereader #bookrecommendations #bookreview #booklover #bookaddict #readingtime #selfcare #kindleunlimited ["

The Perfect Ending To The Wildest, Very Addicting Series

"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “Unbroken Bonds” was everything I hoped it would be. This book wrapped up the series in such a satisfying way — with action, power moves, and all the bonding goodness I’ve been waiting for. Oli fully steps into her role as the Eternal, and she owns it. Her growth is incredible, and the way her bonded group finally comes together as a real unit had me cheering. Their teamwork, trust, and love felt so earned and so powerful. The final battle with the Pain god was intense and high-stakes in the best way. And that epilogue? Absolute perfection. Seeing everyone happy, healing, and building a new future together made my heart so full. If you’ve been on this ride from the beginning, this finale will give you everything you’ve been waiting for. Strong finish, amazing character arcs, and such a good send-off. Loved it. Came a long way from how I was feeling in the beginning of the series. ["

LOVED the series, but not so much book 6

"Keeping this brief since there are other reviews here that are perfect in their detail and rationale. I have LOVED this series, and I am someone who passes on RH when I can. However the bully romance plot, the sassy heroine and the amazing heroes made this one of my favorite series in the past few years. I really fell in love with all of them. I've even reread the first books a few times. Despite plot mistakes, details that led nowhere, and a heroine that talks like a sailor, Bree has found character GOLD, and to repeat the words of many other reviewers, they have moved into my imagination forever. The only thing missing from this series is a book from the bonds' pov. I would pay good money for that. Unfortunately I had to force myself to finish book 6. Where to begin? *At some point in the series (because of well, reasons) the antagonist becomes this nebulous god who we don't really know, kind of like Sauron; but unlike LOTR, the plot fizzles and is without the epic hero journey to back it up. I kind of stopped caring. *There were so many threads that could have been turned into great story that were forgotten of rushed over: Penelope for instance, wtheck was that briefly mentioned nugget thrown into the last few chapters? Would have loved to revisit Giovanna. The drama of Gryphon's and Atlas' parents. Some of those nasty council members who were mentioned in Book 1. Esp would have loved to see some balancing/revisiting of some of the ow drama of book 1. *Oli's newfound knowledge upload thanks to soul-bond seems like cheating- I would love to see her struggling and claiming little victories. She's all powerful and this fact combined with the bonding kind of took away all of her potential development and conflicts. *Many reviewers mention Nox's story, and I agree his character arc could have been gold, but was, alas, a missed opportunity. In all, loved the h and H's sooooo much, and that is what got me through UB, however it might have been a better series in 5 books. ["

Grande Finale

"The final book in the series, “Unbroken Bonds,” aims high epic battles, god-bonds, fate, and closure. There are moments of victory, redemption, and power. The heroine and her Bonds face the ultimate test: can they survive gods and ancient wars while holding onto love and each other. That potential is exciting. But execution here is uneven. Many readers (myself included) found the last installment messy. Plot threads feel rushed, important conflicts under-resolved, pacing sagging under weighty lore and repetitive cycles. What should have been a grand finale becomes uneven climactic at some points, anticlimactic at others. If you started the series and want closure you’ll get it. But don’t expect perfection. “Unbroken Bonds” wraps up the journey, but with wobbly footing. For die-hard fans of the series and reverse-harem/P-NR fantasy, it’s still worth finishing — but with adjusted expectations. ["
