Thank you to Rae for an eARC of this book!
This was truly a book that came at just the right time. A needed distraction with a romance book that has everything I could ask for. Threads That Bind Us includes marriage of convenience, insta-lust but with a slow-burn, spice that had me emotional (lol), and mafia vibes. Gwen and Charlie compliment each other so well. I loved reading their relationship build into something more. Gwen's relationship with her sister was so sweet. Gwen would genuinely do anything for her and we all wish we had a big sister like her. I'm so happy there will be a second book to this series as I was sad to finish as quick as I did. Can't wait to see Clara's story unfold!
Favorite Quotes:
"Try a thousand things and hate them all until you love something. And then tell me about it."
"Every single touch from you is torture I beg for."
"But for us, domination is about compassion. It's a walk on the tightrope, balancing desire and comfort, vulnerability and abandon."
