This is about the lives of three first generation Latvian immigrants to Canada, and about their relationships, marriages , successes and failures. I really enjoyed this book and thought the characters were well portrayed. I was rooting for them all the way through their rather troubled lives!

Three siblings mature and manage life as adults in "Three Bonds Unbroken." I enjoyed following the unique lives of John, Daina and Karl as they face relationship challenges and discover more about themselves. Their family dynamics are fairly universal for all families, not just those of Latvian descent.
I didn't really connect with the characters, though. That could be in part because this is book two of the series and doesn't include enough background information. Readers might find this book more engaging if they've read the first book in this series. Also, there is quite a bit of sexual content and some adult language I don't appreciate.
