Healing Bonds Books
What is the Healing Bonds universe?
It is a group of three series that follow a large polycule in St. Louis and the people connected to them. Dr. Kieran Sung would be the closest to the "main character" of the entire universe (that's a wild statement if there ever was one). He begins in Doctor's Training and becomes a part of each successive book in some way or another.
Chains of Fate focuses directly on Kiearn and his polycule, while Silken Bonds and Joe Town Bound are related to him and the polycule through various threads that are revealed throughout the stories.
So, if you're into a series that goes the distance, the Healing Bonds universe might just be for you.

The reading order below includes all books in the Healing Bonds universe. These books start in 2015, and in this universe, COVID never happens. Up to 2015, the world is roughly the same as ours. Each book is roughly a year after the previous book. You can read each series in order; however, the books are entangled with each other because some characters cross over between books.
Doctor's Training (Chains of Fate)
An Exclusive Proposition (Chains of Fate - Kink in the City Trilogy)
Sea of Stars (Silken Bonds)
Dark Honey (Joe Town Bound)
Chains of Fate
Chains of Fate is a series that encompasses several series in St. Louis, Missouri. Each trilogy after Doctor's Training links back to that book. Other series, like Silken Bonds and Joe Town Bound, also tie into an overall storyline.
These stories all focus on the hurt/comfort trope and are crime dramas that create the situations the characters get into. For this series, prepare for mysterious happenings, surprise villains, and surprising heroes. Many plot threads weave through the Chains of Fate trilogies, so they are best read in order. The main characters from Doctor's training will have various levels of involvement in the later trilogies.
Each book lists its trigger warnings, and readers are strongly encouraged to take them seriously.
Much like Chains of Fate, Silken Bonds uses hurt and comfort as the major unifying trope, and the common use of a particular dungeon. It takes place in Santa Cruz and has its own unique places and people.
These characters all exist in the same universe as those in Chains of Fate, and there are some crossovers between them, as well as with Joe Town Bound. Also contemporary, this series includes crime drama that links it all together. Some threads, though, go back to Chains of Fate.
Like Chains of Fate, each book has trigger warnings, and I strongly suggest you take them seriously. Your mental health is not worth reading something that bothers you.
Silken Bonds
Set in the moderately sized town of St. Joseph, Missouri (home of the Pony Express and Jesse James's house), it feels different from the other books. The area is primarily rural, surrounding the city, and much more conservative than St. Louis and Santa Cruz.
For this reason, the dungeon used by the characters here is a hidden one, and only those in the know have access to it. Each character comes by this knowledge in different ways, and as they do, the crime drama surrounding each set of main characters begins to unwind.
Also connected to the overarching plot, Joe Town Bound has a curious place in Healing Bonds. Will you detect it before the truth is revealed?
Again, please keep the trigger warnings in mind for these books.
