Review: Say You Swear (reread)

 


Title: Say You Swear (bloom edition) 

Series: Boys of Avix

Author: Meagan Brandy 

Release Date: March 26, 2024



A College Romance...


For years, I’ve dreamt of what college life could bring and while some things changed, there was always one constant. 

It didn’t matter how wild I allowed my imagination to run, it always led me to the same place in the end. 


It led me to him. 

My future was clear, and he was it. 


Until suddenly ... he wasn’t. 


Now I’m a shell of who I was, on a path too blurry to follow, and I see no way out.

No way up. 


They say first loves last forever.

That’s exactly what I’m afraid of.

Oh my goodness! 

So I decided to reread Say You Swear when I got the bloom edition in - because I love this story (& wanted to read the bonus scene that is included in the bloom edition paperback). 

And I still love this story. 

It follows Ari, going to her first year of college, and navigating between friendships, first loves, and first heartbreaks. It is an amazing story, that still brings out sooo much emotion. And Noah Riley is book husband material. 

This book will break you & stitch you back together again. 

If you love college romances, and emotional angsty reads, you will love this book! 

5⭐ out of 5⭐.

Reread: Broken Bonds

  Title: Broken Bonds  Series: Bonds That Tie  Author: J Bree Release Date: June 2021 After the death of my mother and her Bonded, I was relieved to find my own Bonds.

After five years on the run, I’m caught and dragged back to face the men I ran away from. I thought I was doing the right thing. Now, I’m not so sure. North, Nox, Gryphon, Atlas, and Gabe may never forgive me but one thing is for sure.

Review: Broken Ties

  Title: Broken Ties  Series: The Bonds That Tie  Author: J Bree Release Date: November 2025 From J. Bree, bestselling author of The Bonds That Tie comes the highly anticipated POV book that everyone has been crying out for. Even the strongest ties can be broken. 
After five years of searching, we thought nothing could compare to the devastation of our missing Bond. We were wrong. After a chance encounter, she’s been found; alive and enraged at being dragged back to the men she ran from. Made for us all, she's supposed to be the center of our world, but bringing our Bond home wasn't everything we imagined. With bravado that defies reason and lies that never taste right, nothing about our Bond’s story adds up. The Gifted community is in crisis, deception at every turn, and it’s getting harder by the minute not to show them all what we’re truly capable of. With our enemies closing in, one thing is for sure. 
 We won’t let her get away from us again. * Broken Bond is a full-...
