Ratings and reviews

4.25 stars--BOUND is the third and final instalment in Aleatha Romig’s contemporary, adult TANGLED WEB dark erotic romance, psychological suspense trilogy focusing on scientist Dr. Laurel Carlson, and assassin for hire Mason ‘Kader’ Pierce. The Tangled Web series is set in the same world as the author’s WEB OF SIN trilogy (Sterling Sparrow) but you do not have to have read the original series to understand or follow Tangled Web. BOUND should not be read as a stand alone as it picks up immediately after the events of book two OBSESSED. SOME BACKGROUND: Dr. Laurel Carlson, along with her colleague Dr. Russell Cartwright are missing, and part of their scientific discovery is currently on the black market, auctioning off to the highest bidder. Imprisoned by an assassin for hire, Laurel struggles with her attraction to a man whose end game is to take her life. Told from several first person points of view including Laurel, Kader, Mason and Jack using present day and memories from the past, BOUND picks up immediately following the events of book two OBSESSED wherein our heroine discovers the true nature of Kader’s obsession and abduction: an obsession that reveals a mutual history but an abduction meant to eliminate Laurel Carlson. With Laurel’s research missing, and her former colleagues missing or dead, Laurel struggles with issues of trust believing her time with Mason comes with an expiry date- a hit ordered by an unknown source hoping to eliminate our story line heroine. Renewed threats force our couple on the run, threats meant to destroy both Kader and Laurel. Sterling Sparrow and his team make a cameo appearance as Mason/Kader struggles to protect the woman with whom he has fallen in love. We are re-introduced to Sparrow’s wife Araneae; his men and former members of Mason’s platoon- Reid Murray and his wife Lorna, and Patrick Kelly, as well as Kader’s commander Clifton ‘Jack’ Jackson. Patrick’s story is next in the Web of Desire Series. BOUND is a complicated and edgy story of betrayal and deception; vengeance, secrets and love; a tale of power and control. The premise is intriguing, captivating and thought-provoking; the characters are colorful, energetic and charismatic; the romance is passionate, seductive and intense. BOUND ends on a happily ever after for now, but saying that there are still a few unanswered questions, and the conflict resolution was cursory and disappointing.

As the story unfolds before our eyes, things we thought, and who was responsible or behind all the killings throughout this series is brought to life in Romig fashion. That is to say, there are twists & turns, get used to it, Aleatha delivers yet another phenomenal story.

This was a good story to read.And hot as hell
