Bound Trilogy #3
Bound for Nirvana
This is an alternate cover edition for B014RSRO1I
Angel once believed she was destined for a loveless, hellish existence. Now she willingly gives her heart to Ethan Wilde, the man whose love mends her broken soul a little more each day. The promise of peace and the chance to breathe are finally within her reach.
Ethan knows Hell is no place for an angel, especially not his Angel. He’s sworn to protect her at any cost. He would willingly sacrifice his soul to save hers.
When Ethan’s past threatened to destroy them, they fought their way through a living hell, fuelled by their passion and driven by their unbreakable bond. They emerged stronger than ever, determined to find their happy ever after.
But Angel continues to paper over the cracks of her troubled childhood in an effort to keep her own demons at bay. When a twist of fate forces her to confront them, she knows she will never find the peace she craves until they, too, are defeated. But in her search for Nirvana, Angel discovers far more than buried memories – she’s forced to face a lifetime of betrayal.
What happens when the worst nightmare you’ve ever encountered is the one you wake up in? When the past comes face to face with the present to reveal a web of dark secrets and a lifetime of lies?
Is there such a thing as a happy ever after for those who are bound for Hell?

Re-read ((1/10/2020) - Angel & Ethan are so wild, hot and passionate together. There is so much love between them. These two are rooted in a solid foundation of love, trust, respect and determination. Once more, their journey took me through a rollercoaster ride of emotions and confirmed that love is worth waiting for...
Initial review:
Awesome, simply freaking awesome!
I don't even know where to begin. I couldn't put it down! I loved this series HARD.
We can tell an author is gifted when he’s able to make us feel everything from start to finish. And Kendra Leigh is undeniably gifted! With this book and the entire trilogy I felt the good, the bad and everything in between. The love between the leads was so intense, so strong and so emotionally powerful, it blew my mind away. Every steamy moment with them felt like I was on FIRE.
Ethan was simply amazing. He left me feeling warm and fuzzy. I loved his intrinsic need to protect his Angel and how he would go through great lengths to protect the love of his life.
I enjoyed watching Angel growth. Loved watching the guilt that has corroded and defined her life for so much was kicked in the butt.
Ethan and Angel faced their demons together; they battled the outside forces that were seeking to destroy their future. These two were meant to be together. The raw emotion, passion, devastation, love and loss that occur throughout this series made for an exceptional read.
This trilogy was one of the best and one of the most intense love stories I have read. I highly recommend this amazingly well-written story.
Relentlessly sexy. Emotionally deep. Definitely a MUST READ.

5 stars
Ok firstly I just want to say a big thank you to Kendra for writing a beautiful love story that had me taken to a getaway place, and a love story that had me gripped to my seat. I've been with this couple from the beginning so I'd say I'm more emotionally involved. This had everything in it secrets, passion, love, lust, and a whole lot of intrigue. I suppose though it was the LOVE that was centre and why I enjoyed it so much, plus how much Ethan adored his other heart.
This final instalment was a big whole epilogue to me. Lots of secrets and final endings.
I honestly don't want to give anything away so I'm going to be a little blasé about this and just explain some of my final thoughts.
Ethan
Gah he is a hero of all hero's, he loves his soul and his other half like no other and did everything he could to make Angel happy. He would stride a head and do what was needed to make sure Angel was happy and content. He was also dominating, loving, made her his home and fell for her HARD. In a way this story came full circle in an effect, it came back to the beginning and I was at the edge of my seat in certain scenes, they pulled at my heart in plot senses yet also this very much a character driven story and Ethan as a whole just knew what he wanted, and went ahead and did what he did best. He thrived to make Angel right, make her believe, feel and belong somewhere above all he made her feel safe, content, happy and loved.
Angelica
Angel has a broken past, a past of sorrow and because of that a hurtful beginning in life. Yet she is now building her life to be a place of happiness. I suppose the one thing that spoke volumes was how real some scenes were to me, they were emotional and a joy to read and a memoir of sorts.
Above all I will say that Kendra has become a favourite author to me, I took a chance and I made a new friend in the process, I'm not giving this 5 stars out of anything but the skills of her writing for a debt author she sure hell had me gripped to the pages. I have found some brilliant authors and reads while being in this romance readers world and I love the bigger authors, I have my favourites. Then sometimes the smaller authors touch my heart in more ways than one and made this series more of an emotional journey.
There was a whole lot of sensual HOT raw erotic scenes as well, some a little cheesy but mostly because they were loving and Ethan knew how to look after his woman. I'd say this series has become a guilty pleasure for me and I will pick up Kendra's books for definite in the future.
If you enjoy Billionaire reads come angsy in parts, some jaw dropping plot twists on other parts then this is definitely for you.

"I can feel your need, baby." Ethan's voice was hoarse and ragged. "Feel it." I responded. "Because it's you that I need. Fuck me until I can't feel anything but you inside me."

Well, I guess I shouldn't be too surprised that the last book of the series would go out with a bang! This was one seriously messed up, over the top, crazy romantic, throw everything in AND the kitchen sink story! I think my mind exploded from overload!
Angel's still reeling from her previous encounter of seeing her family and another woman wearing her mother's necklace. As usual, she suffered the abuse alone, still pushing Ethan away. Only this time, he's not letting her get away with it.
The beginning of the book was still hanging back with the behaviors of the first two books and that was a little disappointing. The immature behaviors of both Ethan and Angel just needed to stop and thankfully they did...sort of. The best part was what Ethan did! That darn necklace bothered me something awful!
At any rate, we get past that and to Angel meeting Ethan's parents for the "first" time. What a wonderful twist! I really loved everything about it, well almost. I do have a hard time believe Ethan couldn't remember...that just didn't seem possible.
Angel's having to deal with a strange client who's taken an almost stalkerish approach with her and there are a bit too many coincidences for it to be real. Thankfully, Ethan wasn't having any of it!
And then we come to the Mother-of-All-plot-twists that we could all see a mile away. What I didn't see was what Angel did. Shocking about covers it...I never even entertained for one moment that she would think of doing that!
But hellloooo...., that's not it. Oh no...someone from the past has to make one last stand and what a doozy it is. Couldn't we have just let sleeping dogs lie? At least there is a finality to it now.
And how about her father? I was surprised but sadden that that's all there could be.
And lastly, we have the epilogue and it is sweet and romantic and just lovely. ~sigh~

We are back joining Ethan and Angel as they fight to get rid of Angel's demons, but as their love continues to grow for each other, Angel is still damaged by her past. She tries to cover it, but Ethan knows it still haunts her and he is determined to rid her of the demons of her past.
Ethan's parents are the key that unlocks most of Angel's past, but there is still things she doesn't understand. For a brief moment she has found the peace she has been searching for from the moment her mother died.
But that moment is very brief, and after coming back from Ethan's parents things unravel. Lies come to light, secrets unfold, but can their love last through it all?
I absolutely love this series, so when I saw this book I jumped at the chance to read it. Ethan and Angel's story pulled me in from the start. It was unpredictable and addictive. You just couldn't predict what would happen, and one point I thought I had it figured out but then the bomb shell dropped and I was like "NO WAY, DID THAT JUST HAPPEN!"
The story had me laughing and crying and on a whole roller coaster of emotions. I loved every second of reading it.
Ethan and Angel are a addictive couple to read about, their chemistry is off the charts and you can feel it. Their love for each other shines through all the time. They will do anything to protect each other and you really see that in this book.
I'm going to be sad that the trilogy is over and to not read any more from Ethan and Angel but Kendra did a fantastic job of closing the trilogy and I can't wait to see what else she has in store for us!!

4 STARS! ★★★★
**This review covers the entire trilogy series.**
Let me preface my review by saying that very rarely you would find me reading and reviewing an erotica series, let alone one that has a sexy billionaire hero. I've been let down by this trope one too many times in the past so I've tried to avoid them like the plague. However when one of my trusted book buddy suggested and loved this series, I decided to take a chance on it. And hey, I could always use some extra guilty pleasure read in my free time ;)
All I can is holy WOW. When I started the first book, I didn't think I would devoured this entire series in one sitting. There were a few things in this read that shouldn't work for me but surprisingly, it didn't bother me too much. I wouldn't have believed that this is a debut author's work because the writing sucked me in easily and the story flowed so well. The MCs had more depth that I initially thought and it was interesting to see how they developed over the series.
The Bound trilogy is a sensual-filled journey with a modern infusion of a Cinderella theme. We have Angelica 'Angel' Lawson; the damsel in distress who's a photographer with a troubled past ever since her mother passed away and living with a father who neglected her growing up. Then in comes Ethan Wilde; Prince Charming in the form of a sexy, powerful billionaire with a (swoony) British accent. A chance encounter fueled with insta-lust was the spark that set things in motion for them. It was a sexually-charged read as they battle out their attraction for each other yet knowing being with each other could be their undoing.
Despite the rather cliche-sounding plot, I really enjoyed being surprised by how many twists were there throughout the entire trilogy. Especially with the 3rd and final book that really packed a punch there with several surprises I did NOT see coming. Both Angel and Ethan had to overcome several hurdles both as an individual and a couple and I thought it was nice to see how their relationship developed over the course of the trilogy. Also I felt there was a nice balance of emotional scenes overlapping with the steamy scenes plus some humor laced in at times to even out the angsty moments.
Overall this was definitely a series that served well as my guilty pleasure reading and I was glad that I took up to chance to read it. The only aspect that deterred me from rating it higher was that I could have done with slightly less sex scenes and cut down of certain repetitive phrases. But other than that, I thought this was a great debut series from this author and will keep an eye for her future work!

Bound for Nirvana
Kendra Leigh
I give this book 5 AMAZING stars.....
This ARC was given by Kendra Leigh in exchange for an honest review.
Wow! Where do I begin with this love story? Kendra Leigh honestly had me hooked with the first book with words that insisted I continually turn the pages in order to find out what would happen to Ethan and Angel. However, I was taken back by the twists that Mrs. Leigh used in the final book. There are a couple of "eeekkk" moments that leave your heart thumping and twisted
How does one live a fulfilled life when their own father hates them? Angel knows her father hates her. She accepts that he hates her. However, she does not understand the true depth of how much he hates her. This hatred is a part of her past that Angel is now willing to leave behind in order to find her true happiness with Ethan. Sadly, she has no idea how far her father will use his hatred toward her in order to destroy her. Will the love she has for Ethan survive hatred, manipulation, deceit, and lies?
In this final story Ethan and Angel come to realize that their love, passion, and the raw need to be with one another is so intense, that they may ruin their own love story with jealousy and mistrust. Ethan can't even consider the thought of Angel being alone or touched by another man. Of course, this feeling goes both ways and Angel finds it difficult to share her man with the woman he must work closely with in order to close a business deal. Their passion for one another is so strong that they shamelessly have a very HOT scene in the rain, outside on the streets of NYC. This love scene is erotic, steamy, passionate, and unmistakably describes how desperate their love drives them to be with each other.
I wanted to consume this book in one setting, however I also wanted to cherish the love story that Ethan and Angel share in this trilogy. Bound for Nirvana was one of those books that you want to read the ending because you MUST know what happens, however at the same time you don't want their story to end. This is more than just a love story, it is a story that has suspense, mystery, tragedy, sexy scenes, a strong heroine, and of course a hotter than hell alpha male!

Review on BadAssDirtyBooks
When I read the first book Bound For Hell in March I fell instantly in love with Angel and Ethan. Their first encounter which lead to smoking hot sex in a closet with no spoken words between them, was intriguing and I could feel their lust for each other. The "one night stand" wasn't enough for either of them and turned into a relationship. Where two people learn about each other. But still with a lot of baggage from their past hides beneath the surface. That continues to be resolved and confronted in the second book Bound For Salvation.
And now here we are with the final book in the trilogy Bound For Nirvana. This was and had everything I needed and wanted in a book in a series. There still was a lot of unanswered questions about Angel's past and they were solved and answered to perfection.
But besides that this book is about Angel and Ethan's relationship and their step forward toward a future together. Still Angel's fears played a huge role but with reason. She has experienced a huge loss when she was a child and it still effects her as an adult. It's haunting and scary to witness how deeply traumatized Angel really is.
Ethan was just the perfect rock and support. His alpha and possessiveness was just the right amount and I could feel his enduring love for Angel. I just loved him and his huge heart.
Sex also played a very important role in their relationship. They loose themselves in each other and every scene felt honest and raw. Kendra Leigh sure knows how to write some beautiful yet steamy as hell scenes. I could feel their love and angst jump off from the pages.
I'm so happy and delighted that I picked up this Trilogy. There's so much more to this story. The characters are well developed and so is the story. The characters grew with each book and so did my love.
If this trilogy was Kendra Leigh's first books, then I'm very excited for her future releases. I'm already waiting.

I finished this ARC a week ago, and I've been dreading writing this review. Not because I didn't love every word of this book, but because that means that this series is over and I'm not ready to let Ethan and Angel go.
To say I love this book or this series is a gross understatement. Kendra has ingrained herself onto my top authors list with her first series. BFN picks up where Bound For Salvation left off. Angel and Ethan are recovering from an incident with his "ex", and trying to get used to living together.
Angels demons still rear their ugly heads at her, but now they have help from a different source. Ethan and Angel's love faces its ultimate test to date, with twist and turns that will leave you agonizing every time you need to put the book down, even if it's just for a moment. Your mind will race with possible scenarios of what could happen or what's to come.
The best part of this book is that we learn just how connected Ethan and Angel really are. If there were ever two people meant to be, it's them, and you get to see why. Their love is tested, but only grows stronger.
I can't convey how much I love this series. Kendra is such a gifted writer. As sad as I am to say goodbye to Ethan and Angel, I'm excited to see who she brings us next. I know that Kendra will be around for a long time to come, and I, for one, will be reading her until the day she stops writing.

How to finish a superb series. Kendra Leigh has given us a third book to finish Angel and Ethan's story - and what a finish. I was left gasping for air at 2.a.m because I couldn't put the damned thing down. Tears flowed in places then heart thundered and then just melted. I had to go back to the beginning of the trilogy and read the whole thing again. Housework be damned - the story is holding me speechless again. Great having all three books together. Want them in paperback now. They will be read many times. The passionate and overly protective Nathan is anxious to take his relationship to a more stable point, but Angel is still terrified of something from her past ruining the love they have. Why does her father hate her so much. What does he know that makes him treat her so badly and could it be something that could alienate Ethan from her??
The passion ate and oh so sexy relationship just intensifies in Bound For Nirvanna but outside influences from people who have their own agenda both in Angel's past and Ethan's too - the rivetting confrontations will grip the readers and will not let go till the very end. Kendra Leigh is a master storyteller who takes you inside her stories and won't let you go. Can't wait for more from this brilliant author. I guarantee this lady is a star!!!! Enjoy this trilogy. Bound For Nirvanna is the best finale to the most thrilling Trilogy - ENJOY ENJOY ENJOY!!!!!!!

Incredible ending to a modern day fairy tale!!
The last book in the series and it doesn’t disappoint one bit. You will no doubt read this thinking you know how the story is playing out, until Kendra hits you with a roller coaster of note! I was in shock at the secrets that get revealed in this final instalment.
This book we delve deeper into Angel’s demons. The darkest pats of her past come to the forefront and so many secrets get revealed. It reminded me of a soap opera in some parts, but I couldn’t put it down until the very end. 
This was an amazing journey, following the fairy tale of Cinderella and Charming, Ethan and Angel. Not all fairy tales are easy, and this one was far from it. But even with all the rollercoasters it was an awesome read.

I have been in love with this series from Kendra Leigh since book 1 but she has absolutely blown my mind with this last novel in her series!
Ethan and Angel are one of my ALL TIME favourite book couples! Their love and passion for each other is an inferno.
Angel shows her true courage in “Bound for Nirvana”. Her love for Ethan gives her strength and allows her to face her demons.
Ethan is definitely in my top 3 book boyfriends. He is passionate, sexy as hell and loves Angel with all his being.
Together, they know they can handle whatever is thrown their way. But when secrets are revealed and people from the past resurface, their love is tested like never before.
This novel answered questions, had me gaping in shock and is one of my TOP reads for 2015!
This series is HIGHLY recommended.
FIVE BLAZING STARS!

You CAN’T MISS this trilogy!!! Kendra's writing will sweep you away. I had to read this book slow because I didn’t want this series to end. I was like a sponge absorbing every single word. The twists and turns just keep coming, some I did not want to take. Bound for Nirvana has so much in it - it’s the perfect ending to "Cinderella and Prince Charming’s” story. Kendra did not miss a thing. Everything and one has an ending. There are no words to describe the beauty, love and emotions of this story. Kendra’s writing takes you on Angel and Ethan’s journey of mystery, suspense, surprise all with lots and lots of love!!!

✯✯ 5 Fairytale Stars!!!✯✯
Finally!!! I been waiting for what seems like forever for this book to come out. I had been hoping and praying that Kendra Leigh would give Ethan and Angel the fairytale ending they deserve. Especially Angel. Poor girl been through hell and back and Ethan been putting her back together slowly ever since they met. And, let me tell you. The wait that Kendra Leigh made me do was well worth it and then some!!
Angel has lived a life with no love. Her father has hated her ever since she could remember. He has even brainwashed her younger twin brothers. For years she spent sleeping on the closet floor. But, then she met Ethan Wilde one night and her life has never been the same.
Ethan is worth millions but would give up every cent he had for Angel. He can not stand how Angel fells about herself because of the treatment of her father. His blood boils at how unworthy she feels. But, he is taking things very slow until she really starts listening and believing him. Ethan will not give up until Angel's father does not effect her and belongs to him 100%
In the first 2 books we know how close Ethan is to his siblings and parents. I can honestly honestly say I have been super afraid of them coming home and meeting Angel. I say that bc this girl has not had anything easy yet. Kendra Leigh literally made me go "OMG! Did I just read that?" If you have already fallen in love with Ethan bro and sis just wait. His parents will make you wish your boyfriend parents were them!!
The first 2 books Ethan and Angel have claimed that they have a connection. It's like they were made for each other. Ethan has been her Charming since the very very beginning. Well, Ethan's parents have a lot of useful information. Stuff that Ethan and Angel were unaware of. Or where they?
Angel and Ethan make it their mission to find out everything about Angel past. Angel wants answers. She can not remember much from the day her mother her died. Plus, she's still having her nightmares. Ethan swears he will help her remember everything. But, does Angel really want to remember.
This is such an awesome book/story is unbelievable!! Ethan really is her Prince Charming.Even though in the first 2 books I couldn't stand Ethan's jealousy and possessive side, that still killed me. But, I guess bc he was more open with her it didn't bother me as well. I loved how through it all Jackson ended up being her best friend. They had such an awesome relationship. When Angel wouldn't or couldn't reason with Ethan, there came Jackson. He always knew the right way to get thru to her. I will say this I'll never look at the Jungle Book again without seeing Jackson sing the Bare Necessities. Hahahaha
This is seriously in my top series and top debut author. Kendra did an awesome job making me laugh, cry, yell, scream and smile. Angel and Ethan really are perfect for each other. With all the answers answered we find out why they fit perfectly and why it was like they'd been missing each other their whole lives. I'm still rooting for Ethan younger brother Damon getting a book. But, now I'm really wanting more Jackson. Jackson! Jackson! I'd love to even get a novella from him now working for Ethan or from him right before meeting Ethan. Please Kendra??!!??!! This was the perfect ending to a perfectly beautiful series.

Now that I've finished Bound for Nirvana and The Bound Trilogy, I honestly have no idea what to do with myself. I just can't believe that it's over and that I won't have another book release to look forward to in three months. I have been with Ethan and Angel from their very beginning in March and although it's completely bittersweet, I could not be more honored or proud to be a part of the end of their journey now - six months later. Bound for Nirvana was magnificent, the best in this trilogy, and I can't tell you how much I loved it!
I have watched Angel grow into a stronger, better woman who believes in herself more with each book and I know that with Ethan she will continue to grow. It was amazing, beautiful, and touching to watch her transformation and I could not be any prouder of her than I already am. It was a hard road, but Angel made it all the way. She does a few things that drive me crazy, but she never loses her kindness, sweetness or compassion. All those things made me love Angel and I'm truly going to miss her!
And Ethan, oh, what am going to do without my Ethan?! Before I started Bound for Nirvana, I didn't think that I could love Ethan any more than I already do, but he made me fall in love with even more than I did before! He's the absolute best hero - he's possessive and protective, sweet and patient, and so utterly and wholly in love with Angel that he just makes your heart ache. He's supportive, devoted, and unwaveringly loyal - Ethan is a wonderful, beautiful hero and he will always be one of my favorite guys!
Any and every question that you have been asking yourself, is answered in Bound for Nirvana and I can honestly say that it completely knocked me off my feet and took me by surprise. There are a lot of moments of incredible joy in this book, but there are also moments that will stop you cold, leave you breathless and totally devastated. It tore my heart out, stomped on it, punched me in the gut, and made me want to bawl my eyes out, but it also made my laugh, made me giddy and excited and even though my heart got broken, it never could have stayed that way, but with this story. Bound for Nirvana was spectacular and every bit of pain was worth it to see Ethan and Angel get their happily-ever-after!
Bound for Nirvana is told from Angel's POV and Ethan and Angel finally get their well-deserved HEA! It is the final book in this exceptional series and I'm equal parts glad and sad about that because I really love this series - it became a part of me and will always stay with me. Ms. Leigh has more than earned me as a reader for life and I'm so excited and can't wait to see what she comes up with next!!

This is the third book in the Bound trilogy and the intense love story of Angelica and Ethan is finally concluded.
In the previous book, Ethan had finally slayed his demons and it is now Angel’s turn to let go of her past. However in her doing so, lots of revelations are brought to the surface, leaving me shocked and stumped in to how I did not see that coming.
Ethan continues to be deep, passionate and loving Angel with an intensity unrivalled. His hunger and devotion for Angel is constant. His jealousy and insecurities were at times a little over the top but that just made me love him more. He has been a joy to read and his character one of the best ever. He is everything you would look for in a book boyfriend, he is super-hot, rich, kind, devoted but more of all one beautiful sexy alpha. The way he speaks to and treats Angel is so wonderful to read. Yes there was some cheesy romance fluff that had me rolling my eyes but overall he was amazing.
I have loved Angel’s character from the start which is unusual for me as the female lead usually take me a while to figure out and like. She is made of stern stuff and coming from the background she has it is a wonder she has survived, let alone be the strong woman she is. Losing her mother at such a young age and then her father blaming Angel for her death with such hatred. Her father and her brothers have been a shock and horror to read at times for how they have treated her but in this book after what is revealed and what happens was a big shocker.
I did however find the shocking coincidence that was revealed to be a bit farfetched. I can still remember my best friend from my younger years and I still recall her name even now so I did find that hard to swallow what occurred in Angelica’s past. Yes I know she had blocked out what had happened on the day her mother died but not sure that that meant she forgot everything? Maybe I was misled on that part. Another area I did not like as I have previously said in my reviews for the earlier books was Angel’s best friend. I just could not warm to her and her constant ‘bitch’. Stop it woman!
However in regards to the romance, the love story, the intense passion and sexiness between Ethan and Angelica was off the charts and I adored every part of it. The secondary characters were an absolute wonderful addition (apart from one!) Ethan’s parents were fabulous but my most favourite had to be the gorgeous Jackson and I hope he gets his own book as he deserves it so much.
Overall I have loved and adored this trilogy with its deep seated passion and romance between two such beautiful characters. The added mystery and suspense gave it an added dimension that delivered a well-balanced and thoroughly enjoyable storyline. Wonderful!
Four and a half stars.

Overall Rating: 4.5 Rockin’ ★★★★☆
Almost all little girls dream of their own Prince Charming, their knight in shining armor that slays dragons and protects them! In the final book in the Bound Trilogy by Kendra Leigh, we find out that Prince Charming really does exist in Ethan Wilde. Bound for Nirvana is a remarkable look at a happily-ever-after, wrapped up in rainbows and steamy interludes. The journey to get Angel and Ethan there is not an easy one, but it is a story that will leave a lasting impression on your heart!
Denied the warmth and love of family, Angel Lawson was a broken soul. Ridicule, hatred and abuse is all she has known until Ethan Wilde stepped into her life. Slowly together they are building a new future, a future that holds all the things she missed growing up. He is her everything, her friend, lover and defender. When the past threatens to once again rear its ugly head, Ethan is there to keep her safe.
Nothing or no one will separate him from Angel. From the first moment his eyes met hers he knew she was his! The more time they spend together the more he knows that she is the one intended for him. Destiny brought them together and love will show them how to overcome each obstacle they encounter.
As their relationship progresses in this final installment, we see the growth of both characters and the unbreakable love that they share. Questions that were raised in the first two books are answered, and some of those answers are unexpected. Ms. Leigh’s characters were well developed and the feeling she evokes through them is astounding! Each time you think you have things figured out; the storyline takes an unexpected twist. I would emphasis the importance of reading the previous two books to get the necessary background in order to understand the events that take place in this book.

Bound for Nirvana is the last book from " The Bound Trilogy" by the amazing Kendra Leigh. Like the other two, this book is told by Angelicas prespective and one thing is for sure, the hot factor of this book is like a vulcano, hot as hell. In this book Kendra explore our emotions to the deepest.
Can you blindly trust someone? Trust with your heart, your life, your emotions? I was caught in this web of feelings that kept me reading and reading and i couldn't put the book down. Things were happening in a way that attack my nerves, my emotions, just for you to have an idea how i was feeling, in one minute i was anxious and in the other i was happy, it was without a doubt a rollercoaster of emotions. Can jealousy mask your mind? Can you transform yourself because of it? I'm a true beliver of love at first sight and this book reinforces that. We can forget our child passion but when we meet again the spark will light up again.
I thought that there will be no more surprises but Kendra Leigh had another idea and oh my lord i didn't see that coming. One thing is for sure The Bound Trilogy is withou a doubt one of my favorite series, because the emotion, the suspense, the mystery was out of this world.
Kendra Leigh i din't had the opportunity to know your work sooner but now i am one of your biggest fans.

When I was offered the chance to read the Bound Trilogy I jumped at it as the teasers sounded terrific. This story is the last in the trilogy and I can say without a shred of doubt this was the best finale I think I have ever read.
Angel and Ethan's journey continues, their love grows, but still Angel holds back slightly she still is tortured by her past, but Ethan is determined to have his happy ever after. He takes Angel to meet his parents and it is there that Angel's whole existence is laid out before her, she finds her inner peace finally.
However, like all good stories there is still a lot more twists and turns after that visit to Ethan's parents, and the journey takes them almost to extinction.
I really was enthralled by this final part to the series, it had no EXPECTED parts, all of it was gripping and exciting, the sexual chemistry between them was depicted in such a way it blew my mind. All I can say about this series is YOU NEED TO READ IT and READ IT NOW!!!
Thanks so much to Kendra Leigh for allowing me the privilege of reading her terrific stories, she is now listed amongst one of my favorite authors, thanks to this amazing series. These were a pleasure to read and definitely unforgettable.

OK so wow... I want to cry now that I finished this Trilogy. It was I think one of my favorites. I absolutely loved Ethan and Angel. They were both made for each other since the first time they met. Angel was a broken soul. What happened to her was extremely sad. I despised her father and brothers but at the end I had some pity for them. They didn't know how Angel was a great person. I loved her from the moment I read about her. At the end, when I knew what really happen about the death of Angel's mom, Now about Ethan... Damn, I'm in love with him. I loved EVERYTHING about him. How possessive he was, how complete he was, hell no words can describe how perfect he was. . Anyway, I loved this trilogy, it was perfect. Thank you for reading this true beauty.
I RECOMMEND IT SOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH

Kendra Leigh will need to set up a Therapy Group called the 80 percenters, you’ll know why when you get there and we will be waiting for you with a shot of vodka and an effigy of Ms Leigh you can stick pins in.
She saved the best for last, I did not see that coming, not at all, and when it came I actually gasped, like out loud gasped. The bastard, how could he, why would he say that?
Then the meltdown, I sobbed the entire time, totally lost it.
Am I being too vague? Tough! Read it.
What a great final book of this series, in terms of shock value, it was up there, did we get our HEA, I couldn’t possibly say.
Ethan and Angel have endured so much in this series, it was possible it could be too much, but it worked, and worked well.
They wind each other up into fits of jealousy and then thrash it out between the sheets and other places to get it out of their system making for a hot read.
There have also been some great secondary characters, Jackson, Damon, Jia etc, who knows maybe we will get more from them in the future.
Congratulations to Kendra Leigh on the success of this series, it is truly well deserved.

Oh the feels! The final instalment in Angel and Ethan's story.
The start of the book sees Angel still reeling from her encounter with her family and she turns to Ethan to help her through it. The bond between these two is undeniable, they are stronger together than they are apart. Their worlds collide in a very unexpected way when Angel is introduced to Ethan's parents... What happens over the chapters that follows is a roller coaster of emotions. That had me almost in tears and laughing and rejoicing with Angel and Ethan cheering them on, and holding my breath for them... But all the twisty winding roads lead to a HEA for Cinderella and her Prince Charming ❤️
This really was an amazing series of books to delve into... I can't believe it took me so long to get around to reading these books! But I'm so glad I did! This has been one of my favourite trilogies ever. Thank you Kendra Leigh!

Oh my bloody God.
WHAT A ROLLER COASTER of emotions.
I don't think I've ever read a book with so much bloody drama - drama that never seems to end! Just when you think that 'okay.. surely nothing else can go wrong' you're thrown into the pit of Hell again.
Not that it wasn't a great book - it was actually brilliant - just that during the 60% marker (Kindle edition) you think okay cool, it must be the end now because what more can actually happen to two people, the author is like ERMMMMM NO SORRY STILL MORE DRAMA TO COME SO SIT BACK AND KEEP READING.
If you still aren't by now convinced that Ethan and Angel are meant to be together, THEN WHAT BLOODY CHANCE IS THERE FOR ANY OF US????
I'm officially drained.
I just can't.

I was given this book by the Author for an honest review.
I love BOUND FOR NIRVANA! This series just gets better and better. Ethan and Angel are such great characters, and have grown a lot since the first book. Their relationship gets stronger, but something will shake it once again. The past will come up and things become clearer about the death of Angel's Mom. Everyone needs a man like Ethan who is loving and caring. The chemistry between these two is so hot, that you will need a cold shower after reading. I will definitely will be reading more from Kendra Leigh. I recommend this book and series to everyone. I give BOUND FOR NIRVANA 5/5 STARS.

Kendra Leigh's "Bound for Nirvana" is the final book in the Bound trilogy. It is amazing! I know what I'm getting all my girlfriends for Christmas - The Bound Trilogy! This third book may just be the best #3 I've ever read. Without spoiling anything - I'll just say that I've always loved their nicknames for each other and the nicknames came true! Just absolutely stunning! Right up there with Sylvia Day and Meredith Wild, and way better than "Fifty Shades of Grey," of course! I don't give out many straight 5-star ratings, so you know this series is legit!

Wow! What an awesome series!
This was one of my favorite reads. It had me laughing at their banter and crying of joy and sadness near the end. The way you incorporated the Disney characters was brilliant. I don't want to spoil anything for those who haven't read this; please continue the story I want more of this family! Jia, Jackson, Damon, Abby, Adam, Aaron and of course Ethan.

this is the most amazing conclusion to this series I hate that it has to end for Ethan and Angel. their story is a true fairy. tale of first love and true love.
Kendra captures your attention from the very beginning of this series you can't put it down.
if you have not read this book or any in this series I suggest that you one click and get bound

Gosh what a great ending to an series of books. Ethan and Angel build on their strong relationship. He becomes more protective as events from the past arises and truths are unfolded. You so want things to work out for them. Great twisting storyline, hot lovers and is there a HEA in sight. Loved the whole series. Well done.

Absolutely LOVED this series. Each book was better than the one before it. I was saddened when ..the end... Appeared at the last book. I didn't want it to end. Well done Kendra Leigh for writing a true love story from beginning to end.
