Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

A Multifaceted, Entertaining Read
If you could sum up Blessedly Bound in three words, what would they be?
Well Written, Multifaceted and Entertaining
What other book might you compare Blessedly Bound to and why?
Hmm....that's tough. This book was very different. It oddly reminded me of the cozy mystery books
What does Molly King bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
She made the characters feel very real
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
It was comfortable. I liked being in the book. At the same time there was tension because she's looking for the murderer of her grandmother
Any additional comments?
Here's my full Amazon review:
This book is very well written and very well developed. It's hard to describe it because it had so much going for it and had so many different aspects to why I liked it. Most of the book had this comfortable feeling, like you wanted to live in this word, but it also had an underlying tension as the main character was not only seeking out her grandmother's killer, but is also being stalked by another witch. The characters felt real. Many of the characters live in the gray area between good and bad. How is that possible? The same way it is in real life, they had the best intentions then made a few bad decisions.
This book is the first in a series and I'm looking forward to the next installment.

Absolutely captivating story!
If you could sum up Blessedly Bound in three words, what would they be?
Where's the movies?
What other book might you compare Blessedly Bound to and why?
It's the adult version of Twilight you didn't know you wanted but needed because this is SO MUCH BETTER.
Have you listened to any of Molly King’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
I have not so there's nothing to compare it to but it wasn't bad.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
My heart! Omg it was edge-of-the-seat, what's-going-to-happen-next, heart-pounding excitement. The character development really made you feel like your heart was going to burst from love the next minute break from sadness.
Any additional comments?
I absolutely cannot wait to get into book two! This novel really left off in a great place though that as a stand alone is a fantastic piece. I could easily see this as a movie on the big screen. Someone get working on that! You really feel the energy build as the novel goes and she gains her foothold in the world of Magick. It is a captivating story and I want more!
