Bonded (A Twisted Hearts Love Story book 3)Bonded by Autumn Sand
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Third time is a charm for sure! I loved this book and I am in utter love with this series! This series continues with the quietest member of the bunch with Magnum. To me Magnum was also the most mysterious. There wasn’t much background chatter on him in the last two books, so it was nice to finally get to read his story. Magnum’s story is so incredibly heartbreaking. Then we start to read about Brenda. Brenda if you remember is the nurse that helped Cyma with her daughter. Her story was equally interesting. Now someone is gunning for Brenda and Magnum is making it his mission to keep her safe. But while he is doing that, Magnum and Brenda start succumbing to this chemistry that keeps pulling them closer and closer together, which in turn helps help them from their past. This story has a lot of twists and turns and a lot of the unexpected. What I didn’t expect were the tears that I did cry for Magnum’s character. It kind of hit home in a lot of ways and I felt so bad for him. This story was also so incredibly steamy as well!!! But all in all, this was a seriously great book. I read it in one sitting and loved every minute. I could not put it down. I cannot wait for the next one!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Bonded is another part to the The Twisted Hearts Love Story series by Autumn Sand I’ve slowly been reading. This book tells of Magnum, who we are introduced to in previous books, but barely. He seems quiet, mysterious, and dangerous. My expectations for this book were high because previous stories in this series have grabbed my attention and turned me into a mob affiliate junkie! For real, I cannot get enough of this series!! All the men are alpha-male. Sexy. Borderline Dangerous. And the women are sexy, smart, capable. I’ve not had much interest in these types of stories, and was more into MC type romance/suspense/action, however this series is opening new doors for me.
Magnum, real name Carl, is employed by Tony Delany, who we get to know a lot of in the previous stories. Just like the previous stories, this one has scenes of a sexual nature not suitable for younger eyes, as well as vulgar language and swearing. And it has some very disturbing and maybe triggering scenes of violence involving children, so be aware if this is bothersome for you.
Placed mostly in New York, but partly in Amsterdam.
Brenda is a nurse. We meet her briefly in Ticks story because she is friends with Cyma, as well as was Laila’s (Cyma’s daughter) nurse, and Cyma is Ticks spouse. Her and Magnum have sparks for sure, but for reasons unclear, fail to hit it off at first. However all that changes when someone appears to stalk Brenda and Magnum takes whatever means necessary to keep her safe!
This book was much more than I expected! 5 out of 5 stars!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Bonded is the 3rd book in the amazing Twisted Hearts Love Story series by Autumn Sand. Each book in the series can be read as a stand-alone but as this is such a fantastic series, I’d recommend reading them all. And if you are going to read them all then it would add more to the enjoyment if you read them in order as this may prevent any possible spoilers.
We were introduced to the 2 main characters in previous books, Magnum as one of Tony’s men and Brenda was the paediatric nurse who looked after Cyma’s daughter Leila in the 2nd book.
Magnum had a horrific childhood having been physically and mentally abused by his father. In this book his father is ill and this causes Magnum to have more flashbacks and dreams about the abuse he suffered.
Brenda also has demons from her past that she’s trying to escape but it looks like her past is about to come back to haunt her in a major way.
This book is a gripping, romantic thriller. The story grabbed you from the very first page and did not let go. You are taken through a roller coaster of emotions and there are many twists and turns that you just don’t expect.
I loved both of these characters and how they both worked hard to help each other overcome their horrific pasts. The author writes fantastic characters who have so much depth to them and you really get invested in their stories. I have loved the books in this series so far and I’m now looking forward to reading book 4, ‘Impact’.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Bonded (A Twisted Hearts Love Story book 3) by Autumn Sand is a dark romantic suspense. You do not need to read previous books in this series to read Bonded, but the main characters (Magnum and Brenda) appear in earlier novel(s). In Bonded, we learn more about Magnum, who he is, what he does, and what motivates him. I loved his character, he’s the epitome of an alpha character who is strong, protective, fierce and more. Brenda is such a caring female lead with a haunted past that seeps back into her life. This story was a great intriguing read and I loved the drama and mystery that unfolded along with the undeniable chemistry. A page-turner from start to finish. Autumn Sand has amazing stories in the Twisted Hearts series.

Five Stars

I love the different song for each chapter. The author got my attention fast with that detail. I also liked Magnum. He is a guy to be feared but also cherished. All these men are just big softies. I love it. This one is my favorite so far. The rawness when magnum speaks his feelings. The realness from the pain and fear. I can’t get enough of this series. This author has me hooked. I’m ready to be a character in a book so I can find my HEA. Even though it’s sad to lose people there is also beauty in it. You learn to let old ghost go and allow new things in.

Deep breath.

Wow. This book had me white knuckled. Romance plus suspense plus a brooding dark dramatic plot… literally couldn’t catch my breath in the best possible way. Sand is a masterful storyteller and this book is just another installment that solidifies this opinion.

MAGNUM

I want her with everything I am. It’s a need so deep that all I can do is push her away. But, that’s who I am–it’s what I do. Anyone who dares to get too close, I shove away–out of my reach. The damage of my past won’t let me move forward–won’t let me love her.

But now, she’s in danger, and I refuse to let anything happen to her. Come Hell or high water, I will protect her. Or die trying…

BRENDA

It was all about sex. At least, that’s what I told myself. I refused to let Magnum have my heart. But when the anniversary of my tragic past comes back to haunt me, it’s Magnum who’s there to save me–from my past and from the demons who torment me. Time heals all wounds, but this time, the pain just might be incurable. Can Magnum fix what was destroyed so long ago?

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Bonded Autumn Sand is the third book in her A Twisted Hearts Love Story series. I recommend you read the other two books in the series before this one so you get the back stories of the other characters even though it is a standalone. This story is one hot romance book with lots of suspense, action and drama. Autumn’s characters and the world she writes definitely take you on a ride that leaves you wanting more. There are twists and turns in this book that keeps you sitting on the edge of your seat. The main characters in this book of the series is Brenda and Magnum, who have both known horrors in the past and it is their pasts that they must break free of to look forward to the future.

Brenda is everything that Magnum needs and wants but his past is holding hi back, he doesn’t want her tainted with it. He doesn’t do relationships because he can’t let anyone close enough to see his secrets, see just how damaged he is. But what happens when they meet up again and her past is now closing in on her? Now that she is in danger he vows to protect her. She is his and he will let nothing come between him and his woman. Can he be the one to save her from her demons?

Brenda thought that she and Magnum had something but he pulled away. Now he is back and he won’t leave her alone but does she want him to leave her alone? She doesn’t do relationships because her past has left her damaged. With the anniversary of the horrific events of her past looming, things start to happen that seem to point to the past coming back to haunt her. Will Magnum save her from her past that is now haunting her?

Bonded is a fast paced story that is a page turner and will keep you on your toes and reading until the very end.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Bonded is the third book in Autumn Sand’s Twisted Hearts Love Story series and absolutely, you can read it as a standalone but why should you? She has written two other amazing books that will get you hooked on the series and in reality, we do meet BOTH of the main characters in the previous two books and of course, all the sidekicks! You would never expect that a series can get so much better with each book but you would be wrong, there is something about the way Autumn writes that simply spell bounds you and you are like a fly in a spider’s web and she keeps coming at you again and again and again. You cry your heart out, you scream, you blush, you rage, you cannot put the book down, you check if there will be more books in the series (and thank God, there is a fourth book listed on Goodreads so I know at some point in time, there will be another one!!).
Bonded is the story of Carl CJ “Magnum” Miller and Brenda Johnson. Both of them carry heavy burden of their past and do not trust the people and do not think that they would ever be worthy/ready for a relationship. When Brenda sees Magnum for the first time, she does not think of happily ever after, she is thinking of a hot and steamy one night stand. When Magnum meets the spunky Brenda for the first time, he knew that he was in trouble and his need for her ran way too deep so he knew what he had to do – push her away …
Add to this all the past that does not stay buried, a grisly anniversary coming and you have a recipe for an amazing story! Thank you Autumn and please, do not keep us waiting too long!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Bonded by Autumn Sand is the third book in the Twisted Hearts Love Story series. This book can be read as a standalone book. This is the story of Brenda and Magnum. The characters were a part of the other books but in a background, supporting character sense. Brenda and Magnum met through Cyma and Tick. Brenda was one of the nurse’s caring for Cyma’s daughter during her cancer treatment. Magnum works with Tick. The two of them are tough on the outside but are carrying a lot with them from their pasts. The two do not want a relationship but are drawn to each other. When Brenda receives a threat that is when Magnum learns his true feelings for her. With possible peril at every turn can Magnum and Brenda move from their separate pasts into a future together?
I enjoyed the characters and was glad to see them get their own stories. I was shocked at how quick I read this book. I have enjoyed Sand’s other books in the series but this one was a fantastic story of second chances and being able to put the past behind us. There are some sensitive sections dealing with child abuse. It was integral to the story and was handled tastefully and with great impact. It is a reminder that someone might be smiling on the outside but has a battle inside that they are fighting. Her characters are full of fight but also full of love for the right person. As with her other books I look forward to reading more of her stories.

Bonded: A Twisted Hearts Love Story by Autumn Sand

5 Stars

I just love this series, I love the characters so much and love that they are all in each book. This is the story of Brenda and Magnum and I couldn’t wait to read it after falling in love with Brenda in the previous book. These can be read as standalones, but you would be missing out on some great history if you don’t read them all in order.

Magnum and Brenda both have pasts that haunt them. They each have their own reasons for not getting involved with any kind of serious relationships. They have a connection through mutual friends and even went out a couple times which resulted in him not returning any calls and then nothing. They were each attracted to each other and if it hadn’t been for their pasts they probably would have pursued it further. When a family emergency brings Magnum to town and he runs into Brenda, his want for her returns but all he does is push it away. But when she receives a message from her tragic past he can’t help himself, he will protect her or die trying. Now if he could just get her to open up and let him in, but can he do the same? She knows he has serious demons and wants desperately to help him, but how can she when she’s battling her own? As the anniversary of her tragic past approaches, can Magnum get to the truth and save her in time? Can these two broken people get past their fears and tragic pasts and find their HEA?

This author has a way with molding her words around the best stories. She knows how to manipulate you into thinking you know what’s coming and I can just imagine her sitting there at her computer with an evil laugh as she knows she’s messing with your mind, and then there you are begging for more LOL She is a favorite of mine now and I will be stalking her waiting for word on what she has in store for me next.
