Reviewed by Lynn at Goodreads

From the first page to the very last this is one edge of your seat thriller. The characters all stand out and connect well with each other. As I read I knew who the killer was, or so I thought after clues about three different suspects, I found out I wasn't as smart as I thought. Ms. Patrick had a way of keeping one guessing right up to the last few pages. Excellent well written suspense. Highly recommended.  Read the whole review here!

Theresa @ The Romance Studio gave it 4 out of 5 Hearts: "I quite enjoyed this imaginative romantic suspense. This was a mystery with a lot of inspirational elements throughout as church going and God were mentioned frequently. The relationships in this book were key whether it was between the main couple or the victims and their killer. The supporting cast was well developed and really fleshed out the storyline...If you like your romantic suspense stories with a psychological twist then this one is for you."  Read the whole review here.

Emily @ eCata Romance said this: "Ties That Bind is an intriguing suspense thriller that takes the reader directly into a crime scene and dissecting it from the view of a profiler.  Jo and Austin make a good team and when they discover that they attracted to each other, the drive to find the killer is even more pressing.  Anne Patrick vividly scribes a fascinating tale, that keeps you guessing until the very last page."  Read the whole review here.

Amazon Nymph gave Ties That Bind the Golden Blush Recommended Read Award! "Anyone that loves intense mystery and suspense stories is going to love Ties That Bind. The author has a way of keeping you on your toes as you read this book. There are so many twists that you will have a difficult time guessing who the killer is. Ms. Patrick keeps you guessing until you get close to the end of the book. This story has a lot of romantic and subtle Christian undertones but they don't detract from the mystery. I could not put this one down...Ties That Bind is one book to be placed on every mystery lover's bookshelf to be read more than once."
