We're all searching for a connection, something to tether us to another. Most of us only get one shot at finding a love that will last a lifetime. For some, it's found in the arms of a lover. For some, it's found in the soul of a friend. But the ones who are truly lucky find it in both.
Calliope Davies was never taught to love herself, or understand why anyone else would ever love her. The only relationship that ever came easily to her is the one she has with her two best friends.
Willem Berg has spent the last six years of his life away from the only woman who has ever been in his heart. Now he's coming home, and he is desperate to save her from a monster and from herself.
Together they will discover just how strong you can be when you are tied by fear but bound by love.
For a debut novel this first book in a series is amazing! I loved the characters and the story with all its ups and downs. Willem and Opie has a hard battle and they fight hard to overcome their darkness. The supporting characters are hilarious and I can't wait for their stories. This story is funny and suspenseful and a overall fantastic debut.
This is the debut novel by D. E. Bond. And it is AMAZING! **Beware** This book will leave you with a book hangover like no other! But in the best possible way!
I was sucked in within the first paragraph. This novel is a dark twisted romantic novel that will take you on a roller coaster ride. I seriously became obsessed with the characters and the story. The first night I read this, I stopped to get to bed and found myself saying prayers for the Cali and Will, the fictional characters of this novel. Cali and Will are first loves, but after six years of separation when Will left for California and Cali stayed behind in Phili to open a bakery with her best friend. Fast forward six years and Will is almost wrapped up in CA and ready to head home, back to his girl Cali. However, Cali is in a relationship with Kurt.
Will will do anything to get Cali back, and he has no idea who Cali is actually involved with. This novel is dark, and dangerous, and makes you fall in love with Will. I had so much concern and fear for the situation Cali was in that I prayed Will could rescue her. This fast past novel, was dark and dangerous with nostalgic parts. The character development was so well developed I felt like the characters were all friends. I definitely can not wait for the next novel.

Anchor: The Tie That Binds is an ugly and beautiful story at the same time. It is about love, friendship and devotion among a group of friends. It is also about hate, rage and abuse. This book is both an easy and hard read, but satisfying to read. You won't be sorry that you chose this book, I will definitely read the books by this author again.
