If you are asking or stating that ionic bonds form when ions share electrons, that would not be correct. Covalent bonds form when the two bonded atoms share electrons. Ionic bonds form when one atom transfers one or more electrons to another atom. This results in two oppositely charged atoms (ions) which then attract forming the ionic bond.
