WOW!

Can I just say D A Young will keep you on your toes with the trip she takes you with a story! I did not expect this story to take the paths that it did. They were so unexpected but definitely worth the journey! The narration was excellent and I loved the HEA! Bravo Ms Young!

Happy

Ransom and Billie finally get thier happy ever after, yet what happens to them to get to that is extreme and sad. The last chapter made me smile for them and the family. Would like to have a book about the three kids on thier lives.

Wonderful

Great series great narrators and I loved it all except the last 40 minutes it just seemed too short for the happiness they deserved. What happens to Neville’s winery who’s going to take over. Why didn’t we get to go through Billie’s pregnancy to see their dream I just felt like we missed the most important part of their happiness the children’s outcome and why oh why did they not have twins? I just felt like that was not the finale; what happened with Money does she get her happy ever after. You’re an awesome author love all of your books, still I would love The Ties That Bind book IV Ransom and Billie’s Forever💕

I loved this series

D. A. Young is in my top 5 all time favs but this was my most favorite series. I love story for the ages. Also, love love love the narrators.Awesome storyline. My only complaint was part 3 contained too much sex (I never thought that was a thing but ugh) other than that ✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️

I think this is the best series so far!

First, A.D. I’m mad you for the way the book was heading but All is forgiven, I’m glad they found their way back to one another. I think I love this series more than the Whiskey Row series.

Fierce Love

I loved how deep and passionate their love was for each other. I'm not going to lie I was so rooting for a different story line in between, but understand that is what helped make the love story so beautiful.

Excellent Ending to an Excellent Series

What can I say? DA Young did the damn thing with this finale and The Ties That Bind series. Billie and Ransom are a love story for the ages. They and all the other host of characters are so well rounded and fleshed out you feel like you know them and it makes you root for them even more. The series is full of grit, beauty, blood, sweat and tears with its fair share of ugliness but that makes it that much more satisfying at the end. Also kudos to the narrators, Mari and JF Harding. I can't imagine Billie and Ransom voiced by anyone else.

Omg

I am crying right now. I may not finish this book but I needed to say something. I will be back at the end….

Wonderful series

So damn sad I fished it was really entranced with Billy and ransom . Wish there were more books this was a fantastic story line

Excruciatingly Long Conclusion…

Excellent writing as usual by D.A. Young but I have never been so relieved to reach the conclusion of a series before. It was excruciatingly long! Lol.

This was an emotional roller coaster of a ride. Billy and Ransom’s twenty year battle to finally get their HEA was fraught with so much angst and so many other plot lines that I would’ve been happy if they’d both gone in another direction in the end.

I do have a huge gripe, though. I felt that the big blowup that ended Billy’s marriage was too contrived and lacking in the treachery factor to have ended a seventeen-year marriage. It seemed that Billy had always been only halfway in the marriage from the beginning and was looking for any excuse to end it, once Ransom became single again. That information she lost her sh!t over was almost two decades old and Nick was entitled to his secrets. She never even gave him a chance to explain. I liked Nick and felt that he deserved better. Plus, it kept being said that Marcus didn’t like Nick but there was never any rational reason given for his dislike. Especially since Nick had never been painted as a villain.

All in all, I enjoyed this well-written story, even though it was too long and drawn out. Billy and Ransom’s story should’ve ended at Book 2. I’m glad the two MC’s finally worked it out in the end, although Billy’s likability took a bit of a nose dive for me.
