Cammie Cooper became an alpha-chaser by accident.

After a one-night stand that ends in two pink lines, Cammie thinks she’s found her happily ever after. She forgets all about scent matches, fated mates, and the truth about being a beta from the town of Crawley. That is, until her alpha drops her when he finds his scent match.

Cammie finds herself back home and out of options. She’s got two kids, two jobs, and more bills than she can keep up with.

Her neighbor Reid comes to the rescue after a run-in with the wrong side of the law, vowing to protect Cammie and her kids. But she can't trust another alpha, no matter how much he promises. When she meets his bonded omega, it confirms her suspicions. What could the pair want from her but a good time?

Can Reid and Finn convince Cammie they mean to claim her and her kids? Is it possible for them to blend their lives and find love after so much heartache?

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5 🌶🌶🌶/5

TW - parental neglect, cheating, betrayal (by an ex), child struggling with separation and a new blended family, harassment incl sexual harassment from law enforcement, pneumonia (sc, mentioned), financial insecurity, death of a grandparent (past, mentioned), accidents as it relates to being a firefighter, illness (flu, on page)

CW - pleasure Dom, light spanking, biting, toys, pegging, (light) restraints, voyeurism, felching, DP, sensory deprivation (blindfolds), paint play, DVP

Tropes - omegaverse, single mum, hurt x comfort, found family, small town, age gap (29F, 34M, 34M)

Representation - polyam - MMF

Cammie (FMC) is a Beta down on her luck, a shitty ex Alpha, raising 2 children on her own and working multiple jobs to keep their world turning, she deserves a break and for someone to consider her the way she does her kids.

When an Alpha, Reid (MMC), and his bonded Omega, Finn (MMC), take an interest in her, she believes it's too good to be true - what could they possibly want with a Beta? I really liked the way Reid and Finn were so considerate of Cammie and not once forgot about her kids as they pursued her. They put the effort it to help her unlearn the things her (very) shitty ex put her and her family through and their unit and found family was so heart warming.

I enjoyed that Cammie stayed a Beta and didn't have a magical Omega-awakening and, while I love those, I think it was really important for Cammie to be Beta and love that that's what she is

Scale:
⭐️ - would've DNF'ed / continued out of spite
⭐️⭐️ - shit, but whatever
⭐️⭐️⭐️ - meh, could've been better
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - lit 👅

In need of a sweet omegaverse MMF? With a tough beta heroine, a sassy omega male and an alpha who wants to take care and spoil them both? Look no further and pick up Unwanted, a really sweet and enjoyable story of Cammie, single mother of two, and beta down on her luck. I really liked omega Finn and alpha Reid and how they completely fell for her and her kids, stepped up instantly and got her to trust them and love again.

I enjoyed that she's a beta, and she stays a beta, and is valued as a beta, instead of having a magical and surprising omega awakening (I do love those too occssionally). Finn was a likeable male Omega, which I sometimes find hard to find.

This is a very cozy read, and one that I enjoyed a lot! I wish there had been more emphasis on Finn and Reid's relationship, as it seemed like their relationship was overpowered by their relationship to Cammie.

This is an ARC review.

Poor, struggling, single mom beta FMC + the alpha MMC/omega MMC bonded pair who were unwavering in making her feel safe and wanted. Cammie and her kids were abandoned by her alpha ex when he found his omega scent match, so Reid and Finn had their work cut out for them.

This was a really comforting read. Lots of caregiving, sweet family moments, and that 🥹🥹🥹 feeling. I liked that it didn’t get super steamy immediately (which is what didn’t work for me in the other Sirena Song books I’ve read), and there was a lot more focus on the caregiving and trust building.

This really hit the spot, and I can definitely see myself re-reading.

I like the MMF dynamic, especially when it includes a male omega. I did wish Finn had got pregnant too. It was never explained why he didn't, it seemed to be just assumed that Cammie would be the one that would. I'm not sure why when in this world mpreg is possible and Finn was the omega.

“This is only the beginning. I’m gonna love you so good you won’t know anything else.”

• Single mom down on her luck
• Two adorable kids
• 1 persistent male omega
• 1 very possessive alpha
• Firefighter MMC
• Meet cutes

These men. My gosh! Not only did they put her ex to shame. BUT they stepped up without question. Right from the start, they knew what they wanted! They immediately took on the role as father figures for her two kids. They were determined to encourage her and boost her confidence in every way.

I'm usually an omega FMC fan. But the way they treated her was still like she was the center of their pack.

I absolutely adored her kids. They were so cute. Her spunky little girl was so well written. Sirena did an incredible job bringing the kids to life. They were a huge part of this book! And so well done.

This book was so sweet in every way!

Not gonna lie, I didn’t know what to expect when I saw this cover—yes, I can be a bit of a cover snob, sorry not sorry—but the synopsis sounded like it was going to be a sweet story and I needed that after the darker urban fantasy I’d just finished reading. But holy heck, I did not expect it to steal my heart!!

Single mom of two young kids abandoned by the alpha and father they’d loved only to find a new family with the alpha and omega pair of neighbors that have been looking for the rest of their pack for years. I mean, every bit of my heart is ooey gooey after reading this sweet (and of course spicy because omegaverse) romance with one of my absolute top favorite tropes: found family.

I also really adored how the FMC was the beta in this instance and being shown all the love and affection from her fated scent-matched alpha and omega. It gives that whole thought that you don’t have to be anything or anyone but yourself to be wanted and I thought that was truly beautiful.

I’m so overjoyed that Pack Camden got their happily ever after within the pages of this book 🥰

I equally ached and loved Cammie’s journey from anguish to unconditional love. The care in this book was swoon worthy and I found, even with the extended length, wanting to know more of Pack Camden’s future. Such a lovely addition to Knotty Pines and I can’t wait for what is next!

Super sweet

This book had great character development, good world building, and medium burn with a good amount of spice. Nothing crazy, and I wish there had been better retribution for the bad guys, but all in all I really enjoyed it as just a sweet and spicy read.

I just finished reading the ARC of Unwanted and wow!! This book brings so much turmoil and love into my heart! A beta woman (Cammie)with two kids is abandoned by her asshole alpha who never claimed her. She was struggling to just survive when she scent matches to a mated alpha (Reid) and omega (Finn) (MM). They want her and her kids to become their pack. Somehow, these beautiful men show her she is truly wanted and loved. This is a beautiful story of real family bonds. And the spice is delicious!! I love this book ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️

What a lovely, emotional and healing read. Although with the last OV duology I read I wished the books had been longer, here I felt like it was a pretty good length, could’ve maybe been even a slight bit shorter, because I felt myself somewhat disassociating from the story at about 70 %. I still loved the characters and the story all the way through, I guess I just felt like the first half hit hard and true for me more than the fluffy second half.

“Benjamin rushes to my side, throwing himself at me.
My hands go to his hair. “Whoa, bud. What are you doing here? Where are the others?”
He wipes his nose, his brown eyes pooled with tears. “I came back. I wanted to protect my mom. You… you defended us.” He sounds surprised, even now. This freaking kid breaks my heart.
“I will always protect our family.”


What I loved a LOT about this book (and this surprised me too) were the kids and how especially the ten-year-old Ben’s suffering over his good-for-nothing dad leaving them was portrayed. I’m often hesitant about kids in books because, well, sometimes they get in the way and sometimes they’re written very unrealistically. Not here though. I felt so connected to this pre-teen’s pain and his situation made me think a lot about my own parents’ divorce and how I dealt with it at eight years old — and how it actually should’ve been dealt with. I cried so many times over his reactions and his words and I felt it was so healing to see how beautifully these two men (and his mom!) took him and his sister in and made them feel safe and wanted. He got to eventually go back to being a kid again and yielded the position of the protector to Reid 🥹.

“Then what happened?” I ask, my gut sinking. I’m already queasy and I know it gets worse.
“One day, I’m in the car line to pick up Ben, and I get a text saying he met his match and wants to start his life with her.”
“He did what now?” Reid growls, his bond surging with outrage. His arm tightens on both of us, his body tense. 
“He sent a picture of her bite.” Cammie shrugs, curling into my chest. It feels as if she folds into herself, trying to make herself small. “And I took the kids out for pizza.”


What also spoke to me was Cammie and her hesitancy to believe in these men that were flirting with her and the implication of forever. She was so guarded with her heart and with her kids, but so strong for them all and working her ass off to keep all their heads above the water. She was such a good mom 😭. My heart absolutely breaks for how she was forced to handle the breakup from her pos ex with her kids in the car, but I’m glad Finn and Reid were able to offer her a safe home with an amazing support system.

“How did it go?” Reid asks.
“Well, I cried and he didn’t, so I’m getting ready to accept my new parent of the year award,” I say sarcastically. ”


Finn and Reid. They were amazing, so supportive and loving, and very hot (just had to add that 😩). They were so good and gentle with the kids my heart melted over and over and over again. And they waited for their mate for so long it moves me to tears when I think about it. Twenty years. Twenty. My heart can’t take it. One thing I wish we got more was maybe a little more of them and their relationship. I mean, obviously Cammie with her flight response and insecurity had to be cared for and given lots of attention to first, but like someone else wrote in their review, they both just seemed to be so focused on Cammie throughout this whole book that I kinda missed all the moments we could’ve had of Finn being the center of attention or something. And this also surprised me a bit because I usually like for the woman to be the center, but in this case the guys had already been sharing their lives with each other for twenty years before her, so I don’t know, maybe we could’ve gotten a little bit more of them, too.

Overall super good and super emotional. Loved. It.

💜 Single Beta Mom Down on her Luck 💜

🌸 MMF OV 🌸

💜 Small Town Banter 💜

🌸 Big Boy Firefighter 🌸

💜 They fall first 💜

🌸 Sassy Male Omega 🌸

I just finished my very first Sirena Song book Unwanted and I was BLOWN away with how much I loved it. Two of my very good reading buddies (shout out to you LeeAnne & Serena) recommended I give this one a try, because I’ve struggled in the past to read OV with MM. I have to preface that I love OV and I love a good Why Choose with MM, but for some reason I really struggle with it in OV, because I want everything to be about the female omega. While our female lead Cammie is a Beta, Reid is our Alpha and Finn is the omega they make EVERYTHING about her, and I LOVED IT!! Even when our sweet omega Finn goes into heat, he and Reid make sure she stays the center of it all. Unwanted is absolutely the kind of MM I want to read in OV.

Cammie is a struggling Beta just trying to make it in the world working two jobs all the while trying to care for her two kids Ben and Emmaline ‘Em’. One unexpected night brings a beefy alpha firefighter named Reid into their lives and he knows from their first meeting that she’s his and Finn’s scent match. While Reid and Finn have been a bonded pair for quite some time (they themselves are scent matches), they’ve both yearned to build a big pack of their own, but no one has seemed quite right until she comes into their lives. Cammie is obviously very reluctant as she was burned really bad in the past by Ben and Em’s dad, but Reid and Finn stay persistent to win her and her kids over. This book truly is an example of where the MMC’s fall first, and they fall HARD. I absolutely loved the page time we see with Ben and Em, as they’re a huge part of the story too. I love seeing the kids go thru all the emotions right along with Cammie. As a child of divorce, I’ve been where Ben has been, and Sirena did such an amazing job writing his character. My heart broke for both him and Cammie, but Sirena does such a wonderful job at putting our hearts back together.

While Unwanted isn’t the spiciest OV book I’ve read the scenes are written really well and again EVERYTHING remains centered on Cammie. Both Finn and Reid just want to love, protect and cherish her and her kids and it’s evident almost on every page with their actions and words. I didn’t even know a family nest was a thing, but I LOVED IT! It was a really great way to show family bonding in only the way an omega like Finn could. I hope Sirena isn’t done with these characters, because I would love to read how their family and story continues to grow.

If you’re like me and aren’t a huge fan of mm in OV, I beg you to give this one a try. I was very skeptical going into it, but Sirena assures you from the very first chapter Reid and Finn meet Cammie that it’s all going to be centered on her and her kids. I promise you’ll love this one, as much as me. I cannot wait for more!

So good.

Most liked aspect was the turnaround for Cammie. I loved it. Cammie’s life was so hard. The author did a great job of stacking Cammie’s life against her without drowning me in it. It was heartbreaking, reading her struggle. I felt trapped with her. No money. No support system. No options. Active kids. I mean hell, that opener with Em running away…that hit me so hard I cried.
I have felt that, waking up from an exhausted nap on the couch and realising your child has escaped and you have no idea when they are, or how long they’ve been gone for. It’s straight to worse case scenarios in your mind. Sirena dredged up all those inadequacies in a very relatable manner. Cammie was just trying her best and couldn’t catch a break.
Moving through her life and watching these men fall instantly for her and just being the best versions of fictional men was comforting and awesome. I mean, one was a freaking firefighter, second built like an MMA fighter. Come on,I’m done for. 😩
By the end she was safe, supported, and cherished. I loved that whole journey.

Sirena took the time to explore. The relationships were well fleshed out. I think that’s the thing here.
This feels like a success story. For every woman who goes through motherhood alone and struggling and who feels trapped and helpless. Cammie felt and lived that. The men were fantastic. Lightening her load enough to help her feel safe and have the mental space to be herself again.

I like that the author has balanced the designations (a/b/o) and the personalities that go with that, and still managed to showcase individual personalities. Being designated hasn’t changed if you’re a douche, good, bad, or reliable. It’s a slice of reality into a made up scenario which is refreshing. Basically the designation doesn’t determine if you’re a good human being, and I love that.

Cammie was actually the best. Just an all round wonderful woman, trying to navigate the world with her little family. A good woman. A hard worker. Not petty.
Her two children were adorable.

I also found it quite funny. The relatable snark from Finn made me snarf-yo!
Finn was the bomb! One of the best male omegas I’ve read of to date. Fantastic job Sirena. In particular, I liked that Cammie was still the focus of everything, even though Finn was the omega. I don’t want my stories to be about them, I want it focused on her. Sirena can tick that box 👏🏼

Reid…don’t get me started. If ever there was a more perfect Alpha/strong man, show me. Steady, reliable, calm, protective. His beat down on Officer McCreepy was freaking awesome. Watching him go around the house before bed to lock up and check kids hit my button. I love when the good guys get recognition.

Ok, and one more fav spot in the book…the silver book? 🥹🥹🥹🥹 dammit, that made me so teary, it was perfect.

Usually I want the fmc to have as many men as possible, because she’s irresistible. The three in this group feel so right though

What a beautiful story ❤️❤️❤️

I absolutely adored Cammie. She is so loving, kind, beautiful and always puts her kids first. She has done so much for them. After what she went through with her ex, she deserves to be happy. Cammie struggles with her designation alot due to how she has essentially been treated her whole life.

Our mmc's are Finton and Reid. They are a bonded Alpha and Omega pair. Reid, is our beautiful and cuddly Alpha. I love him, he's so kind and is so patient. He loves Finton so much which is so cute. Finton, our beautiful and sassy omega. He is so funny and I just love his golden retriever energy.

When Cammie is introduced to both Reid and Finton, sparks fly but Cammie won't give into her feelings. She doesn't want the same thing to happen and she doesn't believe because she is a Beta, she is wanted. Finton and Reid really have to prove to her that she is meant to be with them. They make it easy though, they are so patient with Cammie and her kids. I love not only their connection with each other but also the connection they build with Cammie and her kids. Overtime, they slowly show her and her kids what it's like to be loved and what it's like to be a true pack. They definitely go through many ups and downs especially when certain someone's are out to ruin them...

It's so worth the read. It's such a sweet story. It does kind of tug on your heart strings a smidge, it's so adorable 😍😍😍

I really loved this story so much and I can't wait to who's story is next in this series ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you so much Sirena and your beautiful team for giving me the chance to read this story. I am forever grateful 🙏 All opinions are honest and my own ❤️

Wanted For Forever & Always

Everything about this story is designed to tug at your heartstrings & reel you in, and believe me, it does just that & it doesn’t take long either. The pain, mistrust, and cautiousness, leftover from being tossed aside by her alpha after he found his scent match, was so hard for Cammie to let go of & move on from. Whereas Reid & Finn had been together a long time, and they had given up hope of ever adding to their little family, in any way. From the moment they realized Cammie was their scent match, they considered her (and her kids) a part of their family, and they didn’t care what her designation was. It took extreme patience & care on their part to break down her walls, and those of her 10 year old boy, before they could even begin to start the process of building trust & friendship that would lead to love (romantic with Cammie & familial with the kids). I can’t even begin to explain to you how patient, supportive & protective these guys were with Cammie & the kids. They showed up for all the good AND the bad, and believe me, there were plenty of struggles (internal & external) that slapped them in the face with big doses of reality. They were all in though, and it made me love them just as much as it did Cammie lol. Don’t worry though, the serious emotions are only a part of what you get in this story. Sirena had no problem delivering some mind blowing passionate scenes for us 🔥And don’t get me started on the courting gift they got her…believe me, you’ll know it when you get to it 😉🤯😈👏🏻 Grab this ASAP & immerse yourself in all the Omegaverse goodness that Sirena always knows just how to deliver ❤️

Unwanted is a new book by Sirena Song that starts her new series Knotty Neighbors. It is set in the same universe as her other series Knotty Pines Omegaverse, but you do not need to read those books before this one. There are some cameos from the other series but no major plot points connect them. This is an OV book with one female beta, one male alpha and one male omega. This is a spicy book with no cliff hanger.

Cammie (FMC) has many struggles in her life as a female beta. The father of her two children leaves her when he finds his scent match omega. Her extended family does not have the best reputation in town, but they support her as she gets on her feet again. She is working two jobs trying to support her two kids.

Reid (male alpha) and Finn (male omega) have been pack since high school. They have wanted to add to their pack for a long time, but no one has seemed right. After a late night meeting, Reid knows that Cammie and her kids are pack. Reid is excited to meet them and have more people to support and take care of. Cammie has trust issues after her last relationship, but the guys work to bring down her walls and bring her into the pack with her children. There are some trials they must go through to finally build the pack they all have been looking for to find their HEA.

This was a wonderful book that you should pick up ASAP. Hopefully we will ready more from the Knotty Neighbors universe soon.

After a one-night stand, Cammie found herself pregnant. She was officially an Alpha Chaser just like her mama, a Crawley girl. Now 8 years later with 2 kids, her Alpha tells her he's found his scent match and has bitten her. They are starting a new life and Cammie and the kids are out. She moves home to have the support of her sister and cousin and is barely making ends meet. During an unfortunate incident with the local authorities, she encountered an Alpha who showed immediate interest. In the days that followed, his Omega did too. They claimed she was Pack and they want her and her children. But can that possibly be true? Can she risk their hearts again?

"ABCs tell good stories". My favorite part of this story centered on the children, especially the little knight, Em. She was adorable. As a single mom with many of the same circumstances, I connected with Cammie. "By the grace of dry shampoo and caffeine," we survive, hit me hard. Wanting security, love, and traditions is something all mothers understand. I also loved the men. "Finn has a way of making the world seem magical while Reid makes it feel safe" is the perfect summation for these two. My only complaint was the conflict. I had been waiting for it and it didn't live up to my expectations. It was so quickly resolved. I like tension and barely had time to start worrying before it was all wrapped up. I love the outcome but would have liked a bit more struggle to get there.

Since two years i read all kinds of spicy books and i loved also MMF and MMMF, but since a couple of months i was done with MM with any F combinations. I have read some books with a strange dynamic and where the F always felt like a third wheel. With another private reason, it was kinda triggering for me.

Today i the release day for Unwanted by Sirena Song and i have almost read all her books (when i read books with mm), but this book is MMF and i had a couple of doubts. Would this book also be a trigger? Would the FMC be a third wheel?

I have just finished this book and i'm sooooo happy and glad! Yes this is a MMF story, but the men are both obsessed with the FMC. There is no third wheel feelings and the spicy times is always with 3 (and the MM actions are light and mostly at the end of the book).

This was such a comfy and good read (yes there are some heartbreaking themes). The dynamic was equal and the FMC wasn't left out...thank you so much Sirena Song <3

So if you just like me don't like MMF books because of the third wheel feelings and the not-so-equal-dynamics, please give Unwanted a try, it's a 5 star read for me :-)

This is a modern day omegaverse. Avery is a beta and after a wild night, gets 🤰 she and the alpha decide to give it shot, so to speak, for years. One day she picks up their kids from school and he texts — YES texts — her that they are over with a pic of his scent match omega and his bite virtually annihilating their family in a moment.

Welcome to just the start of the story 😅 Avery makes some smart moves during that rapid transition and moves away. She has an unexpected encounter with an alpha in the future, who realizes she is pack. He already has a male omega partner. They become slightly obsessive stalkers trying to find her and wear her down. They realize quickly she has trust issues. It’s a sweet story of tough times, found family, overcoming stereotypes, and embracing the good that seems too good to be real.

The spicy scenes especially come towards the end 🥵 because the heat does come 😉 There is a lot of focus on the courting and building this new family. This is book 1 in this Knotty Neighbors series. It’s a small town, sweet and spicy omegaverse setting. Looking forward to reading more of Sirena’s books and enjoyed this story of a mature FMC finding her second chance romance.

I loved this book!!

Unwanted follows Cammie, a single mom and Beta, working two jobs, trying her best to raise a son and daughter since her a$$hole ex Alpha kicked them out after meeting his scent match.

Being a Beta from the wrong side of the tracks, Cammie is often the victim of rumors and blatant disrespect from several alphas in town; and while in a panic searching for her daughter who somehow managed to wander outside of the home, she finds herself in a panic when she comes across a police officer. Rather than help her, Cammie finds herself feeling threatened and helpless against the alpha’s behavior.

That’s when Reid, one of her Alpha neighbors (and super hot firefighter) swoops in to her rescue. Sparks fly, but Cammie thinks nothing of it since she is so used to being disregarded. Little does she know, Reid goes home to his Omega, the adorable and caring Finn, and confesses that he thinks he’s met their match.

What follows is a beautiful hurt/comfort romance, with lots of steam, and found family perfection! Reid and Finn worship Cammie and absolutely adore her kids. They’ll do anything to protect them and cherish them, to erase all the hurt and rejection that their sperm donor put them through. It’s such a heart warming and emotional story—perfect for when you’re feeling like something low angst with princess treatment for not just Cammie, but her kids as well.

I definitely recommend picking this one up!!

I loved this book... It's one of my favorites.

When talking about a single mother, many books focus on that, you already know how to conquer her and tell her that you love her, but this book not only conquers the mother, they conquer their children and I love that, I loved every part. in which they got involved with children and are the true reflection of a preteen who already understands the problems of adults that affect them emotionally and the innocence of a curious child. As for Finn, I love how detail-oriented he is, I would love to have him with me haha ​​and Reid is a great alpha, he knew how to handle each situation in a mature way in my opinion, in addition to being very tender. and clearly attractive, also good at handling two pairs that are considered "Weak" since it is very difficult compared to other packs in which there are more than two alphas per omega.

I don't know if there will be a second book but I want the story of Ben as the alpha of his pack, he would be a great leader and very close to his family.

This book for me was a mix of emotions full of romance, laughter, sadness, many tears, sweetness and of course hot scenes.

love love love!!

Unwanted is the perfect hurt/comfort romance read. I LOVE an OV romance where the beta is the center of the story and Song delivers a heartfelt story of a single mom to 2, burned by her alpha-hole ex starting her life over in the small town of Knotty Pines. Reid and Finn are an alpha/omega pair who’ve been together since they scent matched as teenagers, they’ve always known someone was missing in their lives and they’ll stop at nothing to prove to Cammie that her, Em & Ben are everything they always wanted.
I couldn’t put this one down - Song tugs at your heart strings, and gives you vulnerable, real and lovable characters with depth and relatability. The book is so well paced, detailed to perfection without overdoing it or straying, I really honestly loved the flow and details in this story and the banter and humor had me smiling throughout this read. This was the perfect hurt/comfort, who did this to you, fated mates, stop at nothing to get the girl romance that I’ll be recommending for the foreseeable future!!

I liked that Reid and Finn gave Cammie their full attention but I felt like they came in too strong at the beginning. I get that with scented mates it's usually insta-love but I didn't like that they were so pushy and didn't really consider Cammie's past or children.

I also found it a bit cringy since Reid and Finn were too perfect. They came in like knights in shining armor trying to save and impress the poor helpless beta. Overall, I didn't really feel a true connection between all three leads. It was more physical and lust. Sure, they definitely cared and took care of Cammie and her children but nothing seemed genuine or memorable. For example, Reid mentioned how he learned to play the guitar to woo Finn when they were younger. I found that super cute, romantic, and sincere. But what exactly did they do for Cammie? I felt like they already had everything and just tried to buy her with money most of the time; like it was an easy courtship for them. The relationship was also rushed and was a bit too over the top cliche.

Cammie is in a carpool line picking up her son when her boyfriend texts to tell her that he has found his scent matched omega, and Cammie, A beta is left with two children trying to start over near her hometown. She know has to work two jobs to keep a roof over their heads and food on the table. One night her four year old daughter decides to go for a bike ride at 2am. She meets a neighbour, Reid, A fireman who is convinced that Cammie is his scent match. Reid is an alpha and has had his omega for the past twenty years, but they have never found their mate to round out their pack. Reid and Fin start to woo Cammie to join their pack, she struggles to accept that they really mean it.
This story had it all, how hard Cammie work to provide for her children, her mistrust that she could be pack, the love and found family. I really loved the story, the characters and highly recommend the book.

I absolutely loved this book! I fell in love with these characters. Cammie has been through so much. Cammie's Alpha (not bonded) leaves her and their kids when he finds his scent matched Omega. So she finds herself back home raising 2 kids and working 2 jobs. She ends up meeting Reid and Finn (an Alpha and Omega who are mates) and they work on convincing her they mean to claim her and the kids. Cammie didn't grow up around packs and thinking that Betas weren't special or important. But Reid and Finn changed that. How they care for Cammie, Ben, and Em melts my heart. Cammie goes through some stuff with the local cop and her ex but Reid and Finn are right there by her side. Reid, Finn, Cammie, and the kids become a beautiful pack filled with love, trust, protection, and a true sense of family. This book just really touched my heart and became one of my favorite Omegaverse's this year.

I got this book as an ARC, and I am leaving my honest voluntary review.
