I’m the kind of person who never reads the synopsis of a book, but jumps straight in almost blindly, if only based on some information I’ve seen on a post recommending it. Here I saw the words ‘femmedomme’ and ‘pegging’ and that’s all I needed to know that I wanted to read this story. I thank my instincts because I really enjoyed this book! 

 

I was quickly drawn into the story, whether through the characters or the lore surrounding The Syndicate. I loved the bond between Gwen and her sister Ana. We don’t know what we would do in Gwen’s place, but we can totally understand the choices she makes for Ana—and the choices that lead her to Charlie are ultimately very good ones for everyone. 

 

Gwen and Charlie form a beautiful partnership and then a beautiful couple as their feelings evolve. I loved that Charlie felt comfortable enough with Gwen to finally tell her about his own desires and fantasies—and Gwen is totally invested in her role. 

 

Now that I’ve finished Threads That Bind Us, I can’t wait to read Lies That Break Us, which focuses on Clara—Charlie’s twin sister—and Deniz.
