And the pre-wedding sex is off the charts....

Lucas Vallois and Andrei Hadeon are finally ready to walk down the aisle. There’s just one small problem.

A ghost from Lucas' past shows up days before the wedding, desperate for help. Against his better judgement, Lucas and his best friend, Ashton Frost, plan a fast trip back to the one place they swore they’d never go: their hometown in Oklahoma. But the danger is worse than they expected.

Now, they’re in a race to track down a killer, keep a young girl safe, and get Lucas back in time to say, "I do."

Amazing

Amazing!!!! I cannot tell you how much I enjoyed this, it was everything I've wanted for Lucas and Andrei. A connection that's unstoppable and emotional, truly moving in so many ways (and don't forget sexy and hot you'll blush too). Kenneth Obi was fantastic with this series and each gets better and better. I love how each of these guys personalities pop. Fun, sexy and emotional mixed with action that's intense! Can't wait for the next.

Heading Home

Lucas and Snow never expected to go back to their home state of Oklahoma. They changed their minds when Lucas' sister begged for help to help find her runaway daughter.

Taylor had no idea of the danger she was in while researching illegal dumping outside of town. And the head of the corporation was not pleased to be outted by a teenage girl.

Lucas and Snow end up with most of their team as backup in the rural region of Oklahoma. And thank goodness because the story is peppered with car chases, murders, explosions, arson, and vile relatives.

You can go home again, but do you really want to?

Narrator Kenneth Obi does a outstanding job of pulling the audience into the story. The characters are believable, and the story narrative is smooth and easy to follow.

Love everything about this book.

I love this series from Jocelynn and Rinda.
The narrator Kenneth Obi is amazing. He not only brings the characters a voice, but he brings them to life..

Good

Lucas is my favorite character so I was so happy to listen to more of his story. While I feel like this story was really good I also felt like it was missing something that the first four books had. Something I can’t quite put my finger on. Still a really good story with plenty of action and romance. Can’t wait to listen to what happens next.

Best one yet

I think this might be my favourite book in this series to date. It was heartfelt, filled with all kinds of emotions. I'm also kind of a sucker for stories where characters go back to deal with stuff from their past and find healing in it.

Lucas and Andrei are planning for their wedding that’s only a couple of weeks away. Plans are made and re-made as are the seating charts. Come hell or high water Lucas and Andrei are walking down that isle this time. There won’t be anything that can stop them, no postponing, they will be getting married. So of course there will be a hiccup in their plans when they get an unexpected visitor; Lucas’ sister Nicole. A sister he hasn’t spoken to since he left his hometown many, many years ago. She’s begging for his help with her daughter; Lucas’ niece, whom she fears might be in trouble. And a visit from an idolised uncle might persuade her to open up.

Lucas reluctantly agrees to return to his hometown for a day to talk with Taylor, hoping to find out what troubled the teenager. But he doesn’t go alone, his best friend Snow goes with him and he’s even more reluctant to return to the town that treated them so badly. Their quick day-trip goes down the drain when they arrive to find Taylor missing and more danger they ever planned on.

All of the guys are fiercely stubborn and protective of each other. Those bonds have been there from the beginning, and it makes them so special. They are unwavering and constant, no matter what these guys are there for each other. Theirs are bonds that transcends friendship or family. I also loved how fiercely protective the guys were of Taylor, how immediate it was. That they had healed enough from their past to be able to open up to her, to include her.

Kenneth Obi’s performance of this book was great. He’s found his calling (I hope, because I for sure would hate to see him stop narrating books). I know that when I pick up a book by him it will be great, he will take me on a journey that I don’t want to end. He will make me feel. For some reason, Taylor's phone calls stood out to me narration-wise. I mean Obi really captured the fear in Taylor’s voice, the need to protect her mother. He also captured her independence and determination to get to the bottom of things and get to the truth.

Of course, Taylor wasn’t the only one he captured, there are also all of the men. He captured the love between our guys, all of the guys. The love of family, but also the bone deep romantic love they shared. How well they knew each other – like when Andrei could tell Lucas was on painkillers only by the way he acted on a phone call. The love between them poured from my earbuds every time they interacted, and it was wonderful to see them married in the end. They truly deserved it.

they can't do anything easy!

Did the story keep me engaged: yes
Were there any parts I found annoying: no
Did I feel an emotional connection to the characters: yes
Would I listen to it again: yes

Good pace, lots of the usual action and drama as can be expected from this series. I liked that we get more background on Lucas and Snow and the amount of chaos that happens before the guys make the wedding is amazing!

Kenneth Obi does a good job managing the continuity of characters. All the personalities and emotion are there making this a vocal performance over just pure narration.

Finally the wedding!

Fabulous to catch back up with the Unbreakable Bonds crew and have it come full circle with Lucas and Andre's wedding. The journey to Lucas' and Snow's pasts was well done and illuminating.

Wonderful

I love this series. Jocelynn Drake and Rinda Elliott write such intricately woven series. This is Book 5 and as we get ready for Lucas and Andre are all set to be married but first the drama and action that we love must come first. What a great job Kenneth Obi has done. I really love how he has so many voices available to use. Well done.
