Tinley Rhodes is an anomaly. Despite her anatomy and pheromones, she still hasn’t had a heat, meaning the law says she’s technically not an omega. She’s stuck between designations, but even omegas have to financially provide for themselves. When a friend’s older brother offers to help her get a job using her skills as a photographer, she knows she can’t say no.
Everything changes in the blink of an eye as she collides with rock stars with wounds of their own.
Former lead singer, Warrick Malone, is still healing from the injuries that nearly cost him his life while coming to terms with the fact his musical career is over.
Ramsey Malone is busy plotting ways to bring back the light to his twin brother’s eyes.
And Colin Fitzpatrick is filling in for Warrick while trying to get the woman he loves to notice him. Add in the pressure of keeping her away from some of the darker aspects of touring, and it's not like he's about to go feral or anything.
Can they come together to heal each other’s cracks? Will any pack really want half of an omega?
Knot Guaranteed is a standalone with no cliffhanger! As with all of my books, you'll find no cheating, no choosing, and a pack of men who fall first. There is no OW drama and the focus is completely on the FMC.
Super-sweet Not cocky rockstars, but cinnamon rolls galore. Loving, caring alphas that support and take care of their autistic omega. I loved how the "omega who hasn't had a heat" trope was handled differently and it didn't magically get triggered by meeting her mates. I loved Tinley, and all the guys. I loved it all!
ASD and ADHD rep that was actually really good Tinley is the MFC she hasn't had a heat so the law says she's a beta once she turns 21. This author is one of my short list for solid neuro diverse rep. We see a lot of ASD behaviors and even a codiagnosis of ADHD but it wasn't cliché and it wasn't over the top. I liked that her quirks didn't go away as the story went on. It's a major pet peeve for me when the MFC meets her men and magically her stutter disappears or she no longer has sensory issues. The men as always were quality while still being alpha and demanding.
Overall this is probably my second favorite read by this author following the duet in the same world. No cheating or OW drama This one was pretty safe. Birth control discussed and used. Almost all outside drama. Would recommend.
I never imagined I would ever call a rockstar romance sweet, cute and fluffy, but here I am! “Knot Guaranteed” is all that, and so much more. These three men are some of the loveliest rockstars ever, and if you love your alphas dedicated and possessive from the start, you’re in for a treat! This book is the perfect standalone if you want to read a cute lovestory that makes your teeth ache from all the sugary sweetness, and makes the rest of your body all hot and bothered thanks to the vivid imagination of this author regarding certain spicy activities.
That being said, this book is more than just relationship building and spice. There’s a storyline waving it all together, an fmc struggling with being a late-bloomer who might never have a heat, men deciding what the future holds (and doesn’t), dealings with the press and everything else that comes with touring the world. But that’s not where the true focus of the story lies. This is mostly the book you want to read when you need a palet cleanser, an uncomplicated read or just something where the fmc gets the devoted men she deserves from the start.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️ I was really fond of him calling me baby girl a few minutes ago. Pretty girl is okay too, but I’d really love it if we could find a way to circle around to good girl.
I love everything Jillian writes! This book is no exception. Low anxiety, with super protective and loving men, and a FMC who is strong but also vulnerable. I binged it in one day.
Whenever I think I have my favorite Jillian West pack nailed down, she serves up another great one to love. The three rockstars that make up Tinley’s pack are that perfect blend of growly possessive and sweet. There’s her best friend’s brother, whom she has loved for years (mutual pining FTW), and the older fraternal twins who discover she’s all they have ever wanted. (As an aside, watching Fitz come to terms with sharing the omega he’s always loved and wanted was absolutely darling).
Medium/fast burn, this book is full of omegaverse goodies like heat spikes, knotting, slick, scenting, nesting, and breeding. There are twin sandwiches, MF, and group scenes. Plus, one naughty-tongued Daddy dom!
This book is a complete standalone, but you will see some characters from the Ruined Records series popping their heads in a time or two.
Highly recommended! Jillian, please keep them coming!

It’s no secret that I am absolutely with this authors books - I have loved everything she’s written, and this is no exception! Knot Guaranteed is a rockstar romance omegaverse which follows the story of Tinley, a neurodivergent omega photographer, and three alpha rockstars. I actually think Tinley is one of my favourite FMC’s from Jillian, she felt so real and it was such a joy to be a part of her journey through her career and the issues with her heat cycle.
As someone with autism and ADHD, Jillian’s writing makes me feel so seen. She writes neurodiversity in such an authentic manner, and doesn’t fall into the trap of infantilising ND individuals like so many other authors do. I love and appreciate you so much for this!
Knot Guaranteed is a very low angst fluffy read, but is packed full of the most delicious spice - the group scenes were everything. Jillian West writes sex so well, if you’re into spicy books then I highly recommend checking out her work.
I received a complimentary copy of Knot Guaranteed in exchange for an honest review!
I love how fluffy this book is 💖. Tinley is a real one, as someone who also struggles with ADHD I couldn’t the relate to her more if I wanted to lol. She is such a ray of sunshine, and she deserves nothing but the very best. Her passion for photography fit perfectly for the plot and overall, I don’t think I’ve ever read anything like this… this was such an original rockstar omegaverse. Don’t even get me started on her men. I refuse to pick a favourite, it’s impossible. Fitz won my heart right away! I couldn’t believe how obvious he was yet Tinley still had her doubts lol it was adorable. Then came the twins Warrick and Ramsey, like dark and light… Warrick had me blushing and smiling like crazy at my kindle, ehem can I please borrow him for like five days or somethings pls because I will always remember him as one of the most protective, dominant and possessive alphas I’ve ever read. Ramsey was key to make the entire pack work IMO, not only was he an absolute sweetheart but he made me laugh with a lot of his actions lol always trying to make sure everyone’s happy and comfortable. Like I’ve said in the beginning, this is the perfect read if you’re looking for something sweet, light angst and steamy 💖 I’d say to read the author’s note at the beginning to make sure you’re okay with certain topics, although the author did a fantastic job dealing with them as everything is treated well and respectfully. By the way, the epilogues were perfect. Like yes please give us all the domestic moments and more ❤️.
I love Jillian West’s books and this might be my favorite. I love that it was more laid back and not completely full of drama. This was a super cozy, fluffy and spicy omegaverse. I loved all three of the guys in this one but War was my favorite, and I really liked Tinley as the FMC.
4.4 stars. Hot. Sweet. Very low drama. I really enjoyed it. It did get a tiny bit boring in some parts towards the end, and I wish we got a full on heat scene, but otherwise. Loved it.
A fluffier read, still with a hint of trouble and serious topics!
I decided to change things up lately and read a fluffier book. This was definitely that! There's no other woman drama, no cheating, no agnst, no questioning the relationships... just a few Alphas in love with their Omega.
While it's on the sweeter side, there's still some very real and serious topics touched upon. Drug use, overdose, the not so glamorous side of being a rockstar is shown a bit, but not with the main characters of the book. It's said they had their share of it early on in their careers, but it isn't their style anymore. It DOES affect them indirectly, though, and almost lands Tinley, the omega, in trouble when she sees something she probably shouldn't have.
Another cool thing about this book is that Tinley is a character that has ADHD and relies on medication for it. It shows a realistic example of a person who has it, what their symptoms can be, and how they can be without the meds, all without making her look bad. In fact, it's the complete opposite - the men all watch out for her, gently asking if she's remembered to take them sometimes if they notice she's getting out of sorts, and find her endearing just how she is. When you take out the omega side of things, she's a VERY relatable character!
If you want a lighter book to read and enjoy the Omegaverse, this will work just fine! It has a friend to lovers trope and can be read as a standalone, or you can read the books that came before this since characters from them are mentioned in this one.
Another sweet and steamy omegaverse by Jillian West. I absolutely loved all these little interconnected Ruined Records books. I love Tinley and all her little quirks - it was great to see a neurodivergent FMC.
I'm a HUGE Omegaverse fan! And Jillian West is to blame for my love for them! I've been hooked since the first book I read of hers.
Knot Guaranteed was perfect. It was fluffy. Swoony. And full of loveable characters.
Tinley was such a cute omega! Even with all the challenges she faced. They didn't make her weak. She pushed through them and learned how to cope. I thought that Jillian did a wonderful job with how she addressed Tinsley's neurodivergent behaviors and ticks. When Tinley got overwhelmed, you felt it. Jillian always does such a good job writing about neurodivergent characters and their struggles, and she proved that to me when I read her Ruined Records series with Lyric. 😭😍
All of the MCs were some of my favorite I've read about!
But Fitz won overall. The fact that he's been beautifully devoted to her since he was 16... WHAT!!! That's just adorable. Not to mention, he even saved himself for her. Which is so unheard of for a rockstar. And only added to his adorable character!
Ramsey was such a playful golden retriever of a character! And I loved how loveable he was. He brought so much humor to the pack! And was the complete opposite of his twin War.
Then there was Hero Daddy War. The absolute definition of protective alpha. He was protective of Tinley from the very beginning. He wasn't afraid to set rules for her immediately and threaten her with punishments. Especially when she fought back against his rules! SWOONNNNN!

•Overall: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ •Plot: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ •Humor: 🤭🤭 •Spice: 🌶🌶 •Pace: •Ending: HEA with 4 great epilogues!
1.75* Not supposed to be a Christmas book AND YET there are no less than THREE in this story. Complete with ugly Christmas sweaters, reindeer pjs, hot cocoa and all the shopping.
Honestly, this book read so much like the last one (A Pack for Christmas). We’ve got a clumsy, awkward FMC who only eats sweets and abhors all fruits, veggies or any kind of even semi-healthy food. She also wears big, old, long-sleeved nightdresses to bed and would looks like “a sexy librarian” with glasses. She also, inexplicably, forgets to use the bathroom unless one of her men reminds her. Then one of the MMCs is huge and intimidating with long black hair and tattoos. Plus another MMC with tattoos and a “watered down Scottish accent” whose “words run together” at times.
Also, and this might just be a personal irk, but in an Omegaverse with pack culture, getting up close and personal with your packmates should NOT come as a surprise to every single male character.
Ovaries do not cramp during menstruation. They might, briefly and occasionally, when releasing an egg but it is the uterus that cramps due the shedding of the uterine lining.
One last note: 5’6” is above average-height for a woman in the U.S. It is not short, and yet the book as carrying on like she was 4’10”.
I really loved the first half of the book but then it fell flat. I wish there was "one year later" headings on chapters where the story jumps ahead. Overall not bad but again the second half just wasn't the best.
As always, Jillian nailed another omegaverse story. Jillian is one of my go to authors for a sweet and minimal angst ov story. If i need a story that isn’t going to leave me on the edge of my seat or anxious about what will happen next, Jillian is my FAVORITE!! Any angst or drama is resolved fairly quick and its truly the best part for a very sensitive reader who feels all the feels of the characters *cough* me *cough*
This is a sweet rockstar romance which sounds like a contradiction when you think of other rockstar romances. It has some of the rockstar cliches like the swooning fans, groupies, substance abuse, and paparazzi scenes but none of it caused me physical anxiety where i was worried about ow drama or my babies being hurt :)
The characters were SO good. Jillian has a way of writing the perfect pack each time where the omega has partners who cater to a certain side of her and makes them such a good balance act. I loved each one of them.
War is such a loving, growly, and sweet alpha. He is the hot scarred beauty. He is the pamperer by far too. Seeing him learn to heal and love on Tinley was so sweet. He catered to her every need even if she didn’t know she needed it and seeing his growth from the start of the story to the very last epilogue just made me want to sob. I need him in my life.
Next we have his twin, Ramsey. i LOVEDDD Ram!! lowkey think he was my favorite. I love a happy go lucky - let me lighten the mood up- alpha. he truly was the level headed one of the pack. He was able to ease any tension and bring comfort to the pack while also being just as growly as his brother when need be. Plus.. Drummers are the hottest so I’m a smidge biased. Plus plus.. the nickname shortstack is so sweet and i lovedddd how he called Tins that.
Lastly we have Fitz and he is Tinley’s best friends brother. I love a mutual pining trope of the whole “It’s you, it’s always been you” plus a good friends to lovers and they naileddd it. I love their relationship so much and seeing Fitz pine for her for ages and seeing how much he loves Tins and would do quite anything for her was so precious. just 10/10 pack
Tinley is the most precious omega. from the start i just wanted to wrap her up and hold her and give her all the love she needed to feel secure. I’m glad she got the pack of her dreams though and man was their story worth it. It’s a bit of a instalove story but it’s not done so in a bad way by any means. I truly just loved this story. It may become one of my new comfort reads.
There are characters popping up from past Ruined Records books but it’s complete stand alone so you don’t have to worry about not knowing what is going on (I only read one of the books in the series and I caught on justttt fine).
TLDR: 10/10 story. i LOVED the story and the characters. Low angst and low drama with lots of spice and gooey feel good scenes. I’d give a solid 5/5 for both the story and the spice.
Thank you, Jillian for the Arc! I can’t wait for the next book :)
This book was the perfect blend of sweet and spicy. This was a medium paced read that was a good blend of character and plot driven.
I absolutely love that Tinsley is neurodiverse (I get giddy when I read about character that I can relate to) and finds three mates that accept her for who she is. Not once do they try to change her or dismiss her, they find work arounds, and work as a team to keep her safe and sane.
The sex is hot and I like that we get to see snippets of Tinsley’s relationship with each man. They each compliment a different part of her and meet an intrinsic need that means they are not surplus to requirements!
My gr friend love Jillian's OV books. And I'm not a OV fan per se. But there are now two series, which I really love and I will reread them for sure.
So I gave this book a try. It was an okay book for me. Plus: the smexy time were not to much for me and there was kind of a plot. And because in OV there are scent matches it was kind of insta love for two of the guys for her best friends brother it was a six years waiting game, where both of them didn't send the right signals to each other.
Ah yes, I love infantilized adult women who are reduced to barely more than childlike characteristics by angry men who make it their business to be in her business. 🙄 I checked out when the 21 year old main character suckled on her guy’s fingers in her sleep like an actual f**king toddler and another guy got up to find her a teething toy…
There is being protective and OTT, and then there are these alphas, treating the FMC like a child, telling her to go to the toilet for safety pees for fucks sake. I do that to my kids, if my husband tried that shit on me he'd be my ex.
Also, the fact FMC states she's auDHD right from the start, then apart from her being on stimulants there's nothing about her that seems ND, like at all.
4.5 Solid fluff. That kind of book you read when ur burned out on dark. Sexy spice and a decent plot weaving it all together. Would have liked to see more of the D/S dynamic. There were only 2 sexy spanking scenes and no discipline. It's hard to find solid OV D/S that isn't too dark.
This omegaverse romance was basically a low angst, caregiver fantasy amped up to the max (triple the MMCs, triple the caregivers!) — *exactly* what I was in the mood for.
Tinley had anxiety/ADHD but regularly slipped into pouty omega mode, which matched up well with the MMCs’ instincts to spoil their sweet omega (their words). I liked all the MMCs in this one (Fitz, Warrick and Ramsey), and they were easy to tell apart with their different personalities and relationship dynamics with Tinley.
The story was a tiiiiiny bit longer than it needed to be, but overall it really hit the spot.
You know that scene in Despicable Me where she yells “IT’S SO FLUFFY IM GONNA DIE”?
That’s me with this book.
It was achingly sweet and light and fun and addicting and Jillian West is the best at happy little reads for when your heart is heavy and wants some joy. Ugh this was precious.
I don't typically read rockstar romances, but I enjoyed this one! Really neat coming together, I enjoyed the main character and her whole personality, really fun read, I was hooked.
Loved this book so much. I really loved how the guys were all for Tinley even though they were rockstars. They all made me swoon throughout and I think it ended perfectly. I will definitely be reading more by this author.
