Bella Hargrove is many things, but brave isn't one of them. There's nothing her childhood best friend, Tamren Bayne, doesn't know about her. Except one little thing. Bella is hopelessly in love with her. A spontaneous camping trip is her one shot. She can either spill her deepest secret or forever hide her heart's true desire. What happens after could bring them closer in every way imagined or break their special bond for good. Under such pressure, how will Bella ever find the courage to confess to the alpha woman of her dreams?
LOVE, returned is a non-shifter sapphic omegaverse. It was originally published on Kindle Vella under the title Confessions. This book contains episodes 1-9 and 21-32. It has been edited, but the events of the story remain the same.
Winter writes sapphic romance under the wings of fantasy, omegaverse, contemporary drama, or a blend of it all. Her tales are the always-angsty, achingly sweet, and steamy love dreams of a byronic lesbian who grew up reading alternate universe fanfiction. Love in a Hopeless Place is her favorite theme. She lives in Michigan where the weather does whatever it wants, regardless of season, and she has three dogs and a cat to spoil rotten. Welcome to her world.
3.5 stars - A quick and enjoyable friends-to-lovers omegaverse romance.
This probably deserves more of a solid 3 stars, but given the scarcity of FF omegaverse stories, I'm adding an extra half star just for that. It's well-written with likable characters. There's a bit of miscommunication trope at the beginning , which isn't my favorite, but it gets resolved quickly.
Las historias del omegaverse me las leo siempre, ya sean parejas hetero o queer, sean cortos eroticos o con una trama, pero si bien este libro es una mezcla de ambos se vuelve tedioso.
‼️Lo que no me gusto - Primera mitad no aguante a a los protagonistas; Tamren (Alfa) con sus justificaciones y la otra mitad solo quería pasar de largo los diálogos de niñita de Bella (Beta). - Las escenas eroticas se repetían mucho sus géneros, en especial el de “la beta”. - El cliché de falta de comunicación mal empleado, solo dejando que una de las protagonistas actúe como si tuviera 5 años.
🔆Lo que me gusto Que el libro fuera corto.
En fin, hay cosas que pudieron ser interesantes, como la falta de confianza en si misma de Bella y porque la madre es tan resentida, o la ex-prometida la cual solo fue para justificar lo cobarde que se comportó Tamren.
Me quedo con los libros de fantasía de omegaverse de la autora que disfrute mucho más.
2 stars. Love sapphic omegaverse books but this was just not good. I didn’t like the writing style, the characters were annoying and I felt no chemistry between them and all of the miscommunication was exhausting. The characters were just so unlikable and childish and the relationship conflicts felt forced. Not my thing unfortunately.
Is there any more novels like this 🔥, steamy love story? A 5🌟 and more for this amazing, exciting novel. I was hooked from the start. Winter, you just became one of my top 10 authors. 😊 Don't miss out on this fabulous, steamy scenes with some angs, and HEA.
