Vengeful Bonds #1
Vengeful Bonds: Season One
In a world rigidly defined by secondary genders, a political storm brews, challenging the traditional alpha-dominated order with progressive ideals. Amidst this upheaval, eight strangers unite against Cerberus, a corrupt power broker. Their mission, born from loss, forges an unexpected bond, transcending societal norms.
This diverse group includes Fen, a sharp-witted omega hacker, Loch, the protective alpha leader, Binnie, a charismatic alpha political consultant, Saint, the former demolitions specialist who can no longer function in polite society, and Ollie, the analytical beta. Forced together by circumstance, they join Binnie in his secure residence for safety, bringing along Fen's Seth, an omega interpreter, San, an alpha artist, and Deacon, an unpresented makeup artist with a flair for the dramatic.
As they unravel Cerberus's sinister plots, they discover not just the hope of justice but also an unconventional love. Forming a formidable pack of four mated pairs, they challenge the very foundations of their world, redefining family and pack bonds in a society where loyalty and love are often confined by archaic norms.
Vengeful Bonds is more than just an Omegaverse tale of revenge; it's a journey of healing, self-discovery, and the forging of a polyamorous pack that challenges the very foundations of their world. Join them in the complete compilation of season one of this serialized adventure, where each chapter unveils layers of intrigue, romance, and a bond that defies all odds.

I honestly don't know what to make of this...
This is my first omegaverse full length book, and I really thought I'd be a big fan but there was just too much that bugged me.
The start of the book was really good - loved meeting the characters and seeing the vengeance plot taking shape - but after around 30% it was like a never ending sexfest with absolutely minimal plot. Like, the vengeance plot is mentioned in passing a few times, but it's just sex scene after sex scene until the last 2% of the book.
Are all omegaverse books just smut and no plot? If so I'm going to have to quit while I'm ahead because I NEED actual plot in my romance stories, otherwise just call it erotica and I can choose whether I want to read something that's predominantly sexual in content!
All I know about these characters is how they act when they're having sex! If I played a drinking game where I had to drink every time I read 'fuck me alpha, knot me, breed me, fill me with your pups and bite me' in this book, I'd be dead by the halfway point!!!!
I also got fed up with being edged about the mating bites. Like it was talked about for over 70% of the book before one of the couples finally got bitey. I'd make a shitty omega because if my alpha was constantly all talk about how they were going to mate bite me but never did it, I'd be off to find someone who has teeth and got on with the job 😂😂😂
I'm undecided whether I'll continue reading this series. I really liked the initial plot, but I can't be doing with another book where nothing happens except a shit ton of super repetitive sex. It was especially boring when the book follows four couples and they all say the exact same things and do the exact same things, so it's like reading the same sex scene over and over but just changing the names. Someone maybe needs to tell them there's more than two positions and one sentence of dirty talk - and that's coming from someone who's Ace AF 😂

spice: 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️/5
format: ebook
no thoughts, just vibes. maybe half a pinch of plot? barely.
i needed mindless smut and that’s exactly what this was. i love all of the characters. i actually was going in expecting san and binnie to be my favs, but ollie and deke completely stole my heart. what is it about betas? they’re just elite.
onley james + omegaverse is the best mashup and i cannot wait to keep exploring this series. the story actually started taking off towards the end and i am suuuper intrigued by the world-building.
i hope liam narrates this so i can add to my list of onley james audio rereads.

Read for a group challenge week 3. I felt sorry for Josh. I can see how enjoyable this would be spread out as a serial, but all together it was a sex fest with a cluster of characters. I couldn't tell if they were all pairing up or gearing up for a why choose. The whole Enigma reveal made sense but before that it was sex and sex and sex. Fave pairing was San and Binnie. Poor Ollie. Josh cropped up every now and then, but no revenge just yet, just couples forming and an unofficial pack. The whole split personality alpha thing was interesting.

If you told me two years ago that I’d be looking forward to reading an omegaverse story I’d say you’re lying. But here we are...
Vengeful Bonds is the first book under Onley James’s new pen name Nolah Harker. If you’re here for the 'tale of revenge' you might wanna skip this book bc I’m not lying when I say that 95% of this is basically an omegaverse fuck fest. The story follows not one, not two BUT eight POVs and surprisingly I was able to keep up. The pack and their destined fated mates are pretty obvious from the moments when certain characters meet but it works. It does end on a cliffhanger so if you're looking for a HEA maybe wait until the other book/s have been released.

I can totally see how this book wouldn’t be for everyone, but for me it was near perfect for what I wanted it to be. Yes, it is 90% smut, like.. there was maybe 3 conversations in the whole book that revolved around the actual “plot” (the plot that wasn’t Omegaverse related I mean), and honestly I am more than happy with that. I love Omegaverse stories, and this had all my favorite moments that one expects from an Omegaverse book (nesting, heats, ruts, bites, knots, scenting, Omega praise). I’m so glad that I subscribe to her Patreon so I can keep reading after that slight cliffhanger.
There wasn’t a moment of this book I didn’t full on love, I fell asleep reading it, had dreams about it and then woke up excited to keep reading. I fell in love with each and every character, and I am excited to continue to get to know them. And I am excited to see where they go with the whole Cerberus plot ends up!

2025 Re-read:
I enjoyed rereading this, but unfortunately I don’t think my 5 star rating holds. 😕
It’s still somewhere in the 4 star range, but I wasn’t as into all the spice this second time around. 😅 and there is ALOT of it. Lol. I still love all the characters though and I am excited to see where the story is going, even though how this one ends it feels like they have lost the revenge plot a little. 😅 Hopefully it all comes full circle, that would be cool!
Original review:
I’m almost embarrassed by how much I loved this book. And this will definitely not be a book for everyone, but I am a sucker for Alpha/Beta/Omega stories. And I DEVOURED this book.
The found family in this was wonderful and I loved how all 8 of the main characters were so different and unique.
I desperately need the next season! 😭

Why even bother with plot? This reads like a fanfiction written not just as fan service but influenced by fan reaction. Like it was patreon driven and directed cause the story falls off for what feels like scene requests. I would have enjoyed more if all ships weren't on the water in book one but couldn't leave any couple out to appease the chapter by chapter readers. Even the full pack getting into it wasn't left behind but should have been built towards throughout the next season.

I probably would’ve enjoyed this so much more if the smut had been dialed back AT LEAST 30% or so. I was more excited about the dark govt/PMC world takedown and it was nowhere

I wanted to like it but I just can't stand the lack of plot, at some point they forgot about revenge, about plans and just gave us spice.

4.5⭐ Por que puedo, por que quiero y por que es todo lo que soñe en un omegaverse ✨
¿QUE QUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE? ¿PERDÓN? 🤯 Maldita sea 🤣🤣🤣 ¿COMO TIRAN ESA BOMBA ASÍ COMO ASÍ Y LUEGO TERMINA LA HISTORIA?
Necesito los demás pero para ayer😭 Dios mio esto estaba muy bueno pero ese final fue 👁️👄👁️
Aquí todo pasó al siguiente nivel y sin anestesia.
Loch y Deke en esos últimos capítulos fueron 🔥🫦🔥 Me ofrezco como tributo papitos, usenme🥵
Okey, dejando de lado mi shock. La historia se dividió en dos partes, no fue la gran cosa precisamente pero si fue un buen libro introductorio. La primera parte, hasta el 40% más o menos, fue presentación de cada uno de los personajes, su conexión entre sí y la explicación de lo que ellos pretenden hacer, o sea la venganza contra Cerberus y Dresden, aunque el cómo es una incógnita por ahora. Son 8 protagonistas, 8 POVs distintos.
Y la segunda parte, el 60% restante fue de ellos conociéndose mutuamente, aprendiendo a funcionar como manada y enamorándose.... Es decir, celo, ruts y sexo por montón. Me recordó mucho al estilo de Roe Horvat, todo tan detallado, explícito y 🫦 esa gente deliraba de placer y feromonas. Tuve que dejar de leer y refrescarme un rato. Cristo, no creí que otro autor pudiese llegar a ese nivel de omegaverse y esa narración erótica tan 💯!
Onley se la esta rifando con esta nueva faceta suya. Espero con ansias los siguientes libros de la serie y cualquier otra historia que tenga pensada🙏🏻
¿Mis parejas favoritas? todavía no me decido🤧 quizá cambie con los siguientes libros. Pero por ahora me gustan:
Seth y Fen definitivamente💜 el OmegaXOmega siempre me va a fascinar🥹 Son taaaaaaan lindos los dos, tan rotos y necesitados de amor. Son dos bebés preciosos🤧
Saint y Seth también💜
Deke y Ollie.... Esos dos son 🥵 Deke es un amor.
Loch y Fen fueron bellos, pero hasta que no dejen sus temores y se suelten completamente no me convencen al 100% Lo mismo para Bin y San, primero superen sus diferencias y acepten sus deseos carajo.
Por alguna extraña razon quiero un SaintXLoch🤭
Y tal vez un DekeXLoch y por qué no con Saint también 😂 pero eso sería francamente catastrófico y creo que no quedaría nadie consciente en esa casa, los pobres omegas estarían convulsinanado por sobredosis🤣🤣

This is one of the coolest and most interesting omegaverse books I have read in a while. It’s certainly unique. Onley James as Nolan Harker has done as only she can do. Creating an entire world and cast of characters that become beloved family. They’re new family, but family nevertheless.
I was fully invested in this story from the time Fen meets Seth. Seth is this absolute golden retriever of an omega. He’s unbelievably sweet and just makes my heart happy. I love how he basically adopts Fen on the spot and tells him that he is going to come live with him and his bestie San. San is a laid back alpha, but also very protective of his Seth for sure and Fen by extension.
Things all start to change when we add in Loch (alpha), Binnie (alpha), Ollie (beta), and Deke (unpresented).
Fen is on a mission to take down the PMC company Cerberus and get justice/revenge for the death of his brother. This motley crew of characters are just starting to put together a plan to get the ball rolling, when biologically throws in a nice little monkey wrench.
Can I just say that the spice is spicy and had my kindle combusting? Cause yeah, that happened. More than once. That dirty talk was on point!
Let’s not forget that cliffy revelation… I mean, WTF? So good but now I’m dying to start the next one.
This book isn’t just a story. It’s an experience. One that you should definitely see for yourself if you love Onley James.

Vengeful Bonds: Season One is Nolah Harker a pen name for Onley James first book in the omegaverse and all I can say is what an amazing way to start. We have a wonderful mix of characters in the book. We have Fen and Seth who are omegas, Loch, Binnie, San, and Saint, who are alphas, Ollie who is a beta and Deke who at 21 is still unpresented. These 8 make an unconventional family with four couples. So much goes on in the story as they all work together to help Fen bring down Cerberus a corrupt company who killed his brother. I love the world building in the story. I had a hard time putting this book down once I started it. I can't wait for the next season. If you can't wait you can read this as it's done as a Kindle Vella. I would definitely recommend this book if you like omegaverse stories as I do.

Boy did a lot happen is this book!!! I’m still dipping in to the Omegaverse but I’m starting to understand more of what I enjoy and although I like the reads where everything unfolds seamlessly I tend to lean more towards the stories where there are twist, turns, hiccups in plans and in depth plot and this had it all! I loved Binnie’s drive when it came to bettering the lives of omegas, Fen was sweet and feisty, Seth, Deacon and San were adorable and caring although they too had a feisty side and Saint and Ollie were great support for Loch! I enjoyed seeing who paired off and the poly dynamics of the group as a whole. Deacon has me intrigued! I’m interested to see how the political side of their world will factor as well as how their mission will go. This was fun and spicy and I can’t wait to dive into Season Two! 🖤💜🖤

I love all Onley James books so I wanted to try her alternate nom de plume as Nolah Harker out. I'm not a fan of the mini reads via Vella so I waited for this to be all released in one novel or "season". This took me a bit at first to get into, lots of characters, instead of a couple main characters, I suddenly had to understand this alternate world as well as track 8 main characters. However, once invested, I really wanted to see where each couple went and how. I do love the polyamory representation - this is under represented in media and in books today, so I love the author bringing this to the table, just wish it didn't have to be an extreme omegaverse to be seen as palatable.
Long story short, I ended up loving it and I can't wait to see where these characters go. The "spice" was very alternate but I do still love a good M|M uniting and this she delivered on.

Ok…that was mostly smut, but I’m still sucked in. Enough so that it might guide me to read my first kindle Vella series, since the next “season” is only available on Vella. I really want to see what happens now that the character building is in place. Plus that ending left me with questions I need answered!

Welcome to the Omegaverse…Onley James style.
All the possessiveness of an Onley book, mixed with a revenge plot, a mysterious murd3r, fated mates, and lots of steam. This story starts with Fen, a computer genius and skilled hacker who’s discovered his brother’s death was not what he thought. After cracking layers upon layers left by his brother, Fen discovers the organization his brother worked for, Cerebus, must be taken down. One of the clues Josh has left is that Fen needs the help of Josh’s team: Loch, Binnie, Saint and Ollie. What Fen didn’t bargain for was how dangerous this plot would be, and that him and his friends San, Seth, and Deke would have to be whisked away to Binnie’s secure fortress to make sure they all get through this alive.
But what happens when you put a beta, two omegas, three alphas, and one mystery man in house in a remote location? 💥💥💥💥💥💥💥
This book is raw and unfiltered, sexy and sweet, with great characters and great one-liners.
Definitely one of the craziest packs you’ll ever meet!

I really love onley books, but I can’t understand how the rating on this is so high. There’s absolutely no plot, zero, nada. And I’m ok with smut, but here we have 4 couples that are exactly the same. I understand that this is the first time the author is writing an omegaverse, so maybe I can excuse the stereotypes. The “everyone sharing everyone” sucks, mostly because I wasn’t convinced by any of the couples. They all just talked the same, had the same discussions and we skipped any and all the conversations. Everyone was talking about how Loch was so self sacrificing and he’s the leader yada yada but I wasn’t convinced because even if they SAY a lot of things everything they DO is think about sex and actually do the sex. It could be an amazing series, but since the author tried to tell the story of all 4 couples in just one book, the book was long and still didn’t had enough pages to make the couples make sense.

Did i care about the mystery? No I didn’t not
Did i stay just to because of the relationship? Yes yes i am
Did i feel guilty over the above statement? 50:50 😂😭
Oh myyy I can’t lie the mystery and all did make me intrigued with the book, but majority part that make me finish the book are the character and love in the air ✨
At this point I didn’t even care about all the mystery and alll… i was so into their relationship development and my my all that 🌶 really did it for me✨ It have been so long or i think it is actually a first (don’t quite remember) that i read a book that cover more than 1 person relationship which make it so much fun reading with all the POV 😍 I need to find more book with this kind of theme, where a book don’t center on 1 relationship only but have multiple people that build relationships with multiple POV 👏🏼the author did a very fantastic job writing this👏🏼
All the character in this book is just so damn cute with each other 😩😩😩 this book also just prove my point on why i love omegaverse/Pack story because how wholesome and sexy it is hehehehhe. The polygamous part is kinda expected yet unexpectedly happened for me, like i don’t see it coming at first but expectedly do after and also totally okay with it ✨
As i love all of them, i still want to put a list hehe. So now i will ranked my fav couples in the book :
1. Seth & Saint
This sweet and cute couple, i just love how Saint just GETS Seth 😩😩 like “you love being spoiled” “ok i will spoiled you gladly”, “what you need reassure” “i will reassure you every minute of the day, you will never doubt my love”. Damnzz i need a man like Saint who is intense yet whip and sweet to the coree 🙌🏼
2. San & Bennie
Although they are the only couple that have not truly “all out” yet i live for the angst in their relationship 🫠 I also know the moment they finally do..my my it will be explosive with the first AlphaxAlpha trope i ever read and the “kinda” reverse roles between them it willl be hotzz
3. Deke & Ollie
4. Fenny & Lorch
For them i equally like both of this couple, to me their interactions is sweet and adorable yet not as high up as the other 2 but still crave for all of theirs interactions still !!!

For them i equally like both of this couple, to me their interactions is sweet and adorable yet not as high up as the other 2 but still crave for all of theirs interactions still !!!

This should be called “Dacryphilia: The Book”
The beginning of this book will trick you into thinking there’s plot, there’s no plot. It’s 90% romance and smut, with an emphasis on smut. The sex is genuinely hot and kinky and the dirty talk is good, but I did start getting bored around the 80% mark when it’s just chapters upon chapters of fucking. By that point, I was only really interested in Ollie and Deke’s storyline too just because Loch/Fen had a lot of similarities with Saint/Seth and I just wasn’t particularly compelled by San being mean to Binnie all the time. At the very end Loch/Fen did end up going a new and interesting direction that got back on board with them at least.
It’s a fun book and I do love a giant polycule, so I’m interested in where the series will go. But definitely a series I’ll only be reading when I’m in the mood for super high spice because frankly there’s not much else to it (at least in this book lol).
Also, would not recommend this book to anyone who doesn’t want to be reminded of the current political climate and 2024 election cycle. While this book is only about 10% plot, that 10% was clearly written within the 2024 political climate and, well, it’s not exactly escapism. Some people may like and want that right now and others may want to avoid for the sake of their sanity.

Having recently finished The Night Movers, I was excited to see Nolah Harker had another omegaverse novel I could jump into.
The story started strong, and I was interested in how the two friend groups came together to get revenge for Josh and take down the evil corporation.
But…somewhere around the 30% mark, that plot line disappears. Around 90% we get a nod to Josh/the original plot again. But it definitely felt the focus was just the smexy times.
Another thoughtful reviewer pointed out that if you were reading this in its original serialized format, it might not feel like it was spicy scene after spicy scene with nothing in between. But as a single story, I was just like, “again? What about Josh? The giant evil military contractor? All that work breaking the code?”
I already purchased the second one, so I’ll at least read that book.

Where did the plot go
June 17, 2024
not for me
I love Onley James but I don’t love this. The poly aspect is just too much for me and there are far too many men involved with a very complicated story. I still love Onley but I have to pass on this one.

I'm usually a fan of the author's works. But if I had started with this series as my first, I wouldn't have bothered picking up any others. So if you're interested in trying and Onley James book, don't start with this one.
It honestly felt like every smutty omegaverse trope you can think of gets thrown in. Starts off with a great premise. Band of guys get together to bring down corrupt organization. Cool. Not too far off from the author's normal vigilante stuff. But it all get constantly, and I mean constantly, derailed by sex. One of the POVs in the book even mentions at one point they've been in the house for a year. A year. And still haven't made any progress.

I started reading this on Onley’s Patreon and I was hooked.
Meeting the characters, seeing the mystery plot start to take shape, following 8 different POVs and still following with no problem and learning to love each and every character. And then the sweet sweet SCORCHING HEAT 🥵 SWEET BABY J! The HOTNESS! I don’t care what anyone says I. AM. HERE. FOR. THIS. OMEGAVERSE SMUTTY GOODNESS. The plot is slow going, yes, but still entertaining and engaging while we focus on other hotter stuff too.

I didn’t pick the book up for three days
I just couldn’t get into it. The reader is thrown into a plot with a whole list of character names who we don’t get introduced to in a clear manner.

September 24, 2025I really need to stop trying to read omegaverse books. I just don't like it! Why do I keep doing this to myself! (I've liked everything else she's written that's why I thought SURELY if I were to like any omegaverse this would be the one. It isn't.)

?? I thought this book was supposed to be about getting revenge for Fen’s brother but all the peen’s must have gotten them side tracked in the first like 10% bc the rest of the book was literally just the pack having seggy time & occasionally remembering why they got together in the first place
