About this listen
Jo McDaniels has an unusual gift, a special tool she uses in her job. Jo is an FBI profiler with the ability to sense what victims felt prior to death; not only their emotions, but their pain as well.
Sheriff Austin Garrett is willing to try anything to catch the vicious serial killer decapitating victims in his jurisdiction. He's never faced such a monster and is happy to accept FBI help, particularly from this beautiful, sassy agent.
Working together, they come closer to the killer with each body - but will the monster change the game and decide Jo would be the ultimate kill?

Not so mysterious killer
Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?
I might recommend this book to a friend that doesn't watch crime shows or not able to drop puzzle pieces together so fast like myself. I had the killer figured out near the very beginning of the book. I kept listening just to see how the ending was handled.
Would you ever listen to anything by Anne Patrick again?
Sure, it took a little bit to get the character voices separate in my head but the story was read in a very good way.
Have you listened to any of Leonor A Woodworth’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
This is my first one.
Did Ties That Bind inspire you to do anything?
It was a very good book to get work done to.
Any additional comments?
I was disappointed by the romance in the book. Not that people don't tend to get together during harsh times but I feel the very ending was forced.

Does a serial killer walk beside them?
I'm going to start off by saying that I loved Ties That Bind! It's by far my favorite Anne Patrick novel! OK, so maybe I've only 'read' four so far, but this one was great! It was chilling, it was riveting, it was creepy, it was gritty, it was gripping, it was engrossing, and it was even a little scary.
I started Ties That Bind with high hopes that it would be good story. I was not disappointed in the slightest. It reminded me of another series I loved, Kaely Quinn Profiler from Nancy Mehl, and also of Brandilyn Collins's Chelsea Adams books. So if you enjoyed any of those titles you should seriously check out this one from Anne Patrick.
There were a couple of points in Ties That Bind that annoyed me to no end, specifically how Jo's brother and mother blame her for things that she couldn't possibly be in control of. But, it shows how emotionally involved I got with the lead characters. The family drama and relationships were a really good way for Anne Patrick to bring everyday reality into a seriously spine-tingling tale.
Once again one of my absolute favorite narrators has brought an already good story to life in full technicolor. Listening to her read this story made my imagination take flight as only an audiobook or a person reading aloud can do. As you can probably guess already, the production quality was very good. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this book to any fan of gritty Christian romantic suspense.

TIES THAT BIND
A new series and another great read by Anne. This is about Jo Mc Daniels, as a FBI agent, a profiler. Different type of profiler, she senses of what victims feel, and their pain, before dying. She didn't want to come back, the pain and disappointment in her father's face when she left, to join the agency. The sheriff Austin, greets her, and helps in the investigation. His strength helps carry her thru the difficult moments, when she relieves though moments. Delighted story that readers will definitely enjoyed.

Psychic FBI Agent
Ties That Bind begins with FBI agent Jo McDaniels returning to her hometown, Claremont, Oregon to help Sheriff Austin Garrett find the serial killer who has been decapitating women. Jo has never planned on coming back but she know the people and geography of the place. She has a special ability to connect to the victims at their moment of death.
Austin doesn't believed Jo about her ability and tested her. After much apologizing, Jo was able to put Austin's skepticism. As Jo is texted to stress and exhaustion on building the profile, Jo is also forced to face her limitation of having another mental breakdown.
Austin and Jo didn't start off on the right foot. Austin respected Jo as a FBI agent even though he didn't believe about Jo's gift at first. Jo trusted Austin to confide to him about her gift. Both are attracted to each other but tried to remain professional.
As Jo build her profile on the killer, Austin and Jo realized that Jo also fit the victim's profile. The only question is would the killer come after Jo.
Readers/Listeners will love the the twist and turns in this suspense thriller. There are clues where the readers/listeners could figure out who is the killer but they will need to pay close attention to the story. I also love that Jo has close roots of friends in her hometown even though she hasn't kept contact with them.
The narrator, Leonor A. Woodworth deliver a wonderful performance of narrating the story. She provided voices to the characters with emotion when the situation is required. She does have a wonderful voice to listen to.

Really Enjoyed!
This was really really good, though I did figure out who the bad guy was early on.
Jo McDaniels is an awesome character and one I know I'd love to revisit. She is smart, brave and easily to relate to. She is an FBI Criminal Profiler and very good at what she does. She also has a hidden ability, she can sense what happened with the victims of the crime. This along with her ears of experience, makes her the go to gal for all high profile cases.
Then we have the Sheriff Austin Garrett. He isn't very happy to have the FBI called into his case but is willing to do anything to catch the killer that is decapitating victims.
I have to say that I loved the dynamics between Jo and Austin. It felt real, though a little rushed. It started off slow but got intense towards the end.
The plot was fast paced and gripping. I love a good forensics book, but when you add in Jos ability and a serial killer, then you have the makings of a great book! Thankfully, the author succeeded in making it great. Even though I had an idea of who the bad guy was, there was still enough suspicious people to keep the suspense alive throughout.
In all, a really great listen. With amazing characters and a thrilling plot, this is a must read. I really hope we see these characters again soon.
Leonor A Woodworth did an amazing job with Jo. She captured the fear and terror that she felt through the visions perfectly. She ramped up the tension when needed and really brought the book alive.
*I received a copy of this for review. This in no way affects my thoughts.*

A really great book
Would you listen to Ties That Bind again? Why?
No, I don't re-listen or re-read a book.
What other book might you compare Ties That Bind to and why?
N/A
What about Leonor A Woodworth’s performance did you like?
She created a seperate character voice for each which really makes a difference when listening to a book. It keeps the story interesting and it's easy to stay focused. Her smooth and gentle voice makes it more enjoyable to listen to her performance.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
When listening to Jo as she was having her visions really reach out to you and are gut wrentching.

good story but unnecessary UNCHRISTIAN language
Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
I enjoyed the story okay, except for the unnecessary cursing. Too many colorful words in the English language to use curse words. Cursing is not Christian language.
Any additional comments?
Please avoid ruining a good story with profanity.
