Bound by Duty is a great example of slow-burn, second-wife trope. Watching Valentina’s strength grow as she navigated her new life was incredibly satisfying. I also especially enjoyed her beautiful bond with Bibi and the steps she took to help her friend.
While Dante was a hard nut to crack, seeing those first gaps in his armor felt like a hard-won victory. My only gripe? I wanted him to break just a little bit more for her by the end! If you love a heroine who wins through quiet persistence and a hero who makes you work for every emotion, this is a must-read.
