Bred by My Brother
Some desires can’t be buried. Especially when they run in the bloodline.
Breeding season has come to Ashfall Hollow.
Alarion has always followed the rules, until the night he breaks every one of them by claiming a dying human. But instinct wants what it’s never allowed to have. Consumed by heat, the truth is impossible to deny. He doesn’t just want one mate. He wants both—his human, and his egg-brother.
These things happen. It doesn’t mean anything.
Eryndor has always known his egg-brother is also his omega. But something has shifted, something that makes it harder to look away. A want. A need. A scent that doesn’t belong. When the truth comes to light, one choice changes everything, because walking away has never been an option.
Breeding season may be over, but nothing they did can be undone.
Teagan came to the mountain for a job, for his son—not for dragons, for magic, or a bond he never agreed to. But the longer he stays, the harder it is to resist the pull toward two men who look at him like he belongs to them. Like he’s always been theirs.
The bond has taken root, and it’s more complicated than ever. Three hearts. One impossible connection. What happens when home stops being a place, and leaving or staying means nothing if they aren’t all together?

Did I jump into this series on book 3? Of course I did, and I loved it! I will be reading the previous two books as soon as possible. In the meantime, I feel like I could follow the story just fine not having read the other the books. I'm always fine with a taboo story and this one did not disappoint and gave me exactly what I needed.
It's always interesting to see an MMM story unfold, and see how the multiple people in a relationship act and make it all work. I loved how they all had their individual relationships beside the big one. They all just worked perfectly together! I loved how they all took care of each other in their own ways. I loved seeing their deep bonds. I especially loved seeing Alarion and Eryndor finally take their brotherly love to a different stage. Eryndor is a huge problem solver and I was happy that Teagan was there to help him. Alarion was a help to Eryndor as well, but he needed Teagan also.
I loved the banter between the brothers, and I also laughed at some comments and interactions.
I really enjoyed the dynamic between Alarion, Eryndor and Teagan. Theirs is a different relationship, but it's something that is perfect for them, so I was really happy to see them successfully form their bond.
If you want to read about two dragon shifter brothers and their human mate, then this is the book for you! This book will keep you entertained throughout and curious as to what's coming next.

More plot driven than spice ( although there was still plenty and it was 🔥) and I was here for it! I loved that the stories in this series start by overlapping each other! Then branch off! My only criticism on this one is the ending, I have too many questions left unanswered!!! What happens next!!!!

MY THOUGHTS
These guys are scorching hot together but also sweet, tender, and affectionate. I love the dynamic between each pairing and between the three MCs as a group, because my favorite poly reads are ones where it feels like all the partners are equally included and appreciated. Eryndor and Teagan are SO down bad for Alarion (and he's completely infatuated with each of them), but they're also terribly warm and supportive of each other, and there seems to be a particular connection because of how protective they both are of Alarion.
This is a trio that just plain works, and I love that they're all brave enough to go after it and not let their terms be dictated to them. I appreciate the non-romance aspects of this book (series) as well, with the drama of humans on the ridge and what's being done to the land. The things going on around the MCs are interesting and keep the story moving.
BOTTOM LINE
This was a great wrap-up for the trilogy, but there are still things I'd love to know more about if Odessa were to decide to continue in this world. :::cough::: more wolf shifters :::cough:::

Review of advance copy received from Author
This is a Dragon Shifter Tab00 story with 🩸 Brothers so if that's not your thing then I suggest you skip this one...and if it is.....😈
This is also Book 3 in the Kinbound Series and they do NOT need to be read in order but I would say it helps because they are all set on the same time line and some events are a bit clearer.
🌶🌶🌶🌶
Alarion has never kept a secret from his Egg Brother Eryndor. They are really two halves of the same soul. This secret though he just can't bring himself to tell Eryndor. How do you explain that you not only saved a human but claimed him as your mate and bit him as well?
Eryndor though already knew Alarion was hiding something so when he followed him to a cave that held this sleeping human Teagan he wasn't exactly surprised but it also wasn't what he was expecting. Eryndor also wasn't expecting to be drawn to Teagan the same way Alarion was. So if they both bite him what can really be the down side right?!
Whoa boy was this one a Rollercoaster! I was having second hand anxiety for Alarion over here hoping he isn't going to be caught! But when Teagan finally wakes up and not only kinda rolls with everything but also accepts these Brothers with no questions asked, my heart was so happy 🖤 I don't want to spoil anything so I will just say this ending was so freaking squishy and cute I almost couldn't handle it. Teagans commentary though had me dyyyying I was laughing so hard it was a great way to break some of the tension with everything else happening! Another great one for this series!

‼️SPOILERS‼️
I just knew that this one was going to be a fun time. Even though I have not read book one, which I will be doing soon, this one is certainly my favorite. I love me a good MMM with all the emotional feelings.
Alarion and Eryndor are blood brothers and are pretty close but Alarion is keeping a pretty big secret. When he finds out that he saved a human along with claiming him as his along with biting him to save him, what’s the guy to do?!
What I really loved was even how Teagan is in the beginning, once the bond clicks in with all the three of them, the chemistry is something they can’t stop. And ohmygod, the emotional energy with these three was just perfection. I got so giddy when I read Alarion’s parts because he was so precious.
I have to say my favorite part was Teagan. He just wanted to be there for his son but he was so connected with his alpha and omega. I love how he didn’t question the guys even though they were blood related. Absolute perfection in my opinion.
If you don’t know, Odessa does such an amazing job with the spice scenes. It was dirty but so good.
The ending had me in tears because these three get their happily ever after and the two dragon shifters get to meet Teagan’s little boy. Twagon’s parents and Benny loved the guys so much and it’s everything the guys deserved. I hope we get to see them even more happier than this because they truly deserve every joy in their lives.

If you're familiar with Odessa Hywell, you already know you're in for a wild ride. And if taboo twin dragon shifters sharing a human mate isn't your thing, this one probably isn't for you. If it is... welcome.
Alarion has been hiding a huge secret from his egg brother Eryndor—a human named Teagan that he's rescued, claimed, and bonded with. Of course, secrets never stay hidden for long, and once Eryndor discovers Teagan, everything changes.
This book was chaotic, addictive, emotional, and ridiculously hard to put down. The chemistry between Alarion, Eryndor, and Teagan was intense from the start, but what I loved most was watching them slowly become a family. Beneath all the heat, possessiveness, and dragon shifter drama, there was a surprisingly sweet and heartfelt story.
Teagan's commentary had me laughing out loud, and the scenes with his son added an extra layer of emotion that really worked for me. And that ending? So squishy and adorable that I couldn't stop smiling.
Definitely my favourite book in the series so far!

**spoiler review**
Dragon shifters, MMM & broc*st? Yes please! Alarion is fascinated with the human (Tegan) he sees on the ridge. When Tegan falls, Alarion saved his life by giving him a mating bite.
Eryndor has always had a closer than normal relationship with his egg brother, Alarion . He knows Alarion is keeping a secret from him but knows he will tell him when he’s ready.
When Eryndor discovers Teagan and sees how slowly he is recovering, he knows how much the human means to Alarion and he feels a pull to the human so he places his claiming bite on Teagan’s collar as well.
The dynamic between the three is a little different than other MMM books I have read. T & E are Alpha/ Alpha type and EA is Omega. While E & T do pleasure each other, they only penetr*te A.
E & A learn T has a son, Benny, he wants to get back to & A promises him that he will see his son again.
While I believe one brother discovers T, nobody else in the Hollow does. A & E take T home after he recovers and they meet Benny. We see the brothers interact with Benny and the story kind of ends there.

If you’re familiar with Odessa Hywell books you know you’re always guaranteed a hot as hell time. Think s*x on steroids. Bred by my Brother was no different (this time it even throws a little DP into the mix), but damn if I wasn’t overcome with emotion throughout this story too.
It’s been hinted in the previous two books in the series that Alarion is hiding a big time secret - a human he’s rescued from the mountains. But his twin brother and sorta mate Eryndor has no idea, until he stumbles across their hideyhole, and what ensues are some tender and explosively hot moments.
This story was fantastic from start to finish. Reading the three men navigate their poly relationship as dragon shifters and human was both joyous and deeply touching. Undoubtedly my favourite in the series so far!

This one is my favorite yet in the series. I absolutely adored Alarion and Eryndor and how they work together as twins. Teagan fits right in with them and there are good times had by all! I feel that it has a good balance between the plot and spice without too much rehashing of previous events. I would've liked a scene where Eryndor and Teagon discuss kids as they have their own history with this. Alarion and Teagon definitely get the most page time together but there are some good scenes between Eryndor and Teagon as well. My biggest complaint is that the twins never seem to talk with their father about the situation and the ending felt a bit rushed. Without trying to give too much away, I wasn't quite sure exactly what these guys decided on. I would've like an epilogue or one more chapter just to really tie things up. That being said, this series is one of my favorites and I hope we get more in this universe!

This book was exactly the kind of chaotic, addictive, taboo story I expected from Odessa, then throw in dragon shifter drama, well! The tension between Alarion, Eryndor, and Teagan was intense from the start, and once the bond between them began to fully develop, I couldn’t stop reading. The mix of possessiveness, emotional vulnerability, and protective instincts made their relationship feel messy but strangely heartfelt at the same time.
I really liked how this story expanded the world and tied into the earlier books while still giving this trio their own unique dynamic. There’s a lot going on emotionally beneath all the heat, especially with the complicated bond between Alarion and Eryndor and the way Teagan gets pulled into something far bigger than he ever expected. Watching them slowly shift from confusion and denial into something that actually feels like a family was one of my favorite parts.
The chemistry is obviously off the charts, but I also enjoyed the softer moments, especially involving Teagan and his son. Those scenes helped balance some of the heavier relationship dynamics and made the emotional connections feel more genuine.
Possessive dragon shifters, omegaverse bonds, complicated relationships, and a lot of heat mixed with emotional tension, what more do you need!

A great continuation of the “Kingbound Series”. We have met two brothers, father and grandfather in the previous books. Now we have the “twins” Alarion (omega) and Eryndor (alpha). Our sweet omega finds a human (Teagan) who is seriously injured and saves him even though that is against every dragon rule. It was such a pleasure to see how Teagan accepted the possibility of dragon shifters (he might have known a wolf shifter in the past) and how Alarion and eventually Eryndor accepted him as one of their mates. I wasn’t sure how Ms. Hywell was going to give them a HEA as there were things pulling Teagan back to the human world, but she did it and it was wonderful. Of course as always there was hot and steamy passion throughout this book. I highly recommend this book. Enjoy!

Taboo 🩸⚠️
This book surprised me, actually it was the end of book two when i realized that Alarion and Eryndor would have have a human mate. This story was actually quite sweet. Alarion who is captivated by the human, Teagan, who is basically living on the mountain as a night guard, sees him fall and saves him by mating with him so that he can heal faster. However Alarion being an omega the healing powers just aren’t enough, so when Eryndor finds out what’s going on he gives Teagan his mark too and he’s healed incredibly fast being bitten by an alpha. This book has all the dragon smutty goodness. The plot basically centers around them navigating their relationship and figuring out to be able to stay together and get Teagan back to his son.

I was so excited to get this one, all the teasing and hinting from the first 2 books really made me want to get Alarion and Eryndor's story, and a surprise addition with Teagan.
The story happens in the same timeline as the first two, so there's a bit of overlap that pulls all the stories together, but it's nice to have and get a sense of all 3 stories.
There was lots of heat and intrigue and heat, oh yes, more heat.
I loved the story, it seemed like it was HFN so I hope that anything in the future will give us some closure with the trio.
Great story!

Alarion, Eryndor and Teagan story was interesting and brings us a new perspective of the events as well as clarification to certain past questions.
I liked how their chemistry and dynamics developed, how they gained trust in each other, and how they came to accept their feelings.
They had a couple of hurdles along the way thanks to the danger factor, the secrecy and the uncertainty with a promise that weights for a long time.
I really was happy for Alarion and Eryndor ending up together, and Teagan brings unexpected things to their relationship.
I liked the characters and hope to see more of them.

Alarion and Eryndor are twin dragon egg brothers.
Alarion has always known that Eryndor is his mate but has kept this secret because it would be wrong.
Tegan is a human who's working nearby in order to provide for his son and who has no idea dragons exist.
Time passes and Alarion saves a dying human, Tegan, by mate bonding him.
Eryndor suspects his brother is hiding something so he follows him and discovers him and Teagan.
This was messy, complicated, full of emotional ups and downs, and extremely spicy.
I really appreciated that Teagan was so quickly accepting of them both and that he was the bridge for them to be able to move their relationship further on a deeper level.

I've been practically foaming at the mouth for Alarion and Eryndor's book from the moment they were introduced in Cealean's, and was not at all disappointed! I am such a sucker for codependecy, and the bond these two have is *chefs kiss*.
However, I was surprised at how long Alarion was able to keep Teagan and their bond a secret from Eryndor, but was not at all surprised that he felt a pull towards the human too. Their story was so freaking cute though, and I loved how Teagan just rolled with the punches of finding out dragons exist and life in the Hollow.

Oh, I was so ready for this story! It lived up to my expectations! I loved the suspense of the story. It ran along the same timeline as the first two, but was not repetitive. I really liked how Eryndor handled the discovery and moving forward.
The sex was scorching! All three of the men were so hot!
I do hope we get glimpses into their future in future installments. We were left with a HFN, which was great! I just want to know how things move on into the future too.

May 24, 2026I was provided with an ARC from the author in exchange for an honest review. These are my real sentiments about the story and everything written here is respectful, without meaning to harm anyone, but to offer my opinion as constructive criticism/compliments. Thank you, Odessa, for the opportunity!
Throuple: Teagan, Alarion and Eryndor.
Structure: 1st person. Present tense. Multiple POV. Third book in a series. Taboo.

Book 3 in the taboo dragon shifter series kinbound, and every book gets better! This one follows two egg brothers (twins) Alarion and Eryndor and their human mate Teagan. Alarion is an omega and he saves Teagan from certain death—the only thing to save him is a bond. Problem is Alarion is also in love with his twin Eryndor…secrets are kept, bonds are formed, and these three messily fall for one another. I really enjoyed this one and I hope there will be a part 2 to their story!

I loved every second of this Odessa is Queen of taboo Back in Ashfall Hollow for Alarion, Eryndor and Teagan’s story.
It’s breading season in Ashfall Hollow
Alarion is a rule follower and he doesn’t keep secrets from his brother Eryndor until one night he breaks them when he claims Teagan, a human who is dying and he has no choice.
Bred is hot, fun and keeps you reading to find out what happens. Dragon shifters and omegaverse you couldn’t ask for more

I say this all the time, but I really wished this one was longer. That HFN has me chomping at the bit to continue reading about them. The author says they're not confident in writing multiples, but after previous books and now this, I'll say the MMM in this was written well. Even though it's not a triplet brocest, we still get two of them with a human in a poly yummy triad. So good and wished there was 100 more pages.

Set in the same timeline as the previous books, this one packs lots of heat and spice.
Alarion, Eryndor and Teagan have a draw to each other that cannot be ignored and when the addition of the heat bond, they understand they are meant to be.
We get answers to alot of the previous plot question and the HFN leaves you happy with where the series is.
I’m hoping we get more of all of these characters in the future.
An absolutely delightful, taboo read.

Incredible. I honestly think its my favorite of the series. I loved how all three of them came together, and didnt let the Hallow drag them apart. How Eryndor didn't hesitate in making Teagan his, along with Alarion.
PS, this book is taboo with 🩸 relations. If thats not your thing, please keeping going. We read, and we dont judge.

This book gives you possessive dragon shifters, omegaverse bonds, complicated relationships, taboo dynamics, and enough emotional tension to fill several books. The world-building and character development add substance to all the chemistry, and overall it makes for an engaging read.

I really enjoyed Eryndor, his egg brother Alarion and Teagan, the human he saves story. Their story is very taboo but also so much more. There is sweetness, humor, heart, emotion, angst, poignancy, feels and yes lots and lots of sizzling steam. The connection between the egg brothers and the one that blossoms between them and their fated human mate was truly beautiful.

I absofreakinglutely loved it. Pretty sure this was the one I’d been anticipating the most out of the three. So glad I got the chance to read it.
Highly recommend. Could be read as a stand-alone but definitely best enjoyed in series order.

I absolutely loved this story and I am really loving this series. It’s not completely necessary to read the books in order but you really should read them all for maximum enjoyment. This story was hot, hot, hot. This time we have brothers Alarion and Eryndor with an added human thrown in. This was such a wonderfully spicy story with a lot of sweetness too. I can’t wait for more from this world.

Bred by My Brother is the third book in the Kinbound series, it can be read as a standalone but I recommend the whole series just because it's good. This is a forbidden, dragon shifter/human read about Alarion, Eryndor, and Teagan. This was such a well-done taboo book and I loved the characters and how they got to a HEA.

“The scent of him—fuck, fuck, fuck. Teagan’s scent too, tangled up in Alarion’s, woven so tight I can’t tell where one ends and the other begins.
My omega. My mate. Mine. Mine.”
Finally everything comes to light and these three simply fit beautifully. I’m hoping there are future books planned for this world and that we get to flash forward as this super sweet ending has me wanting more.
