I have to admit that the beginning of this novel "The Ties that Bind" by Theresa L. Henry seemed a little long, I did not have any affinity towards Hope; therefore, I emotionally "checked out." I persevered, and I am glad that I did because the entrance of Aviva and Jason really changed the energy of the novel and reminded me of all the reasons why I fell in love with those dynamic characters that Ms. Henry created as well as her writing style.This novel is an in-depth one, which gave the back-story of various characters, therefore, allowing the reader to see what made them "tick." Where the reader was a witness to various events in book one and saw the impact of those events through Jason's eyes, now in book three, the reader was able to witness the same events and their impact through Steve's eyes; this was a nice walk down memory lane.In all series, there is going to be the "book" that ties the entire series together, the book that has to do the dirty work, the book that is full of details. Well, this is that book, and it is necessary to bridge the gap from book one.  Ms. Henry did a good job fleshing out Hope and her parents' characters, she did an even more remarkable job by not wrapping Hope and Steve's situation in a neat little bow; she certainly invoke reality here...Time!The Kingdom clan continued to hold court with their larger than life personas and gregarious nature and I cannot get enough of those giants. Ms. Henry, you even managed to illicit tears from me around the 98% percentile on my kindle...Nice touch!I am truly looking forward to the continuation of the Kingdom reign with much anticipation!
