Alluring Ties is a nice little read. It is a photobook into the lives of Lexi’s friends. Who they are and things in the past that have made them that way. We get the glimpse of these characters through scenes in their own lives. We spend time with Erik and the boys that have hurt him and healed him. We watch Bradi grow from a girl into a woman, learning that though she has a past, she isn’t her past.These characters are fun and flirty and most importantly, they are there for each other. The know each other inside and out and what they each need at any given moment. They know who they are and what they want and they know that there is nothing more important than friendship and love.This is a quick little read as it is a companion novella to the Bayou Stix series. But it is a fun read. I enjoyed this book because it was like looking at a photo album and each picture telling its own story and the sum of all those little stories is two people and two friends and how they got to where they are and major events in their lives that have changed so much in the past seven years.As I have discovered with most novellas, that I enjoy it being a quick read, I also find that the biggest distraction. I don’t want these little books to end. They usually have the biggest stories in the fewest pages and I can never get enough of them. This is an amazing novella and I only wanted more!*I received a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for an honest review
