She fell into my arms as her entire world fell apart. And I was never letting her go.
Reed I've been alone for over three hundred years. The darkness is around every corner, trying to swallow me whole as I watch my packmates one by one find their true loves, while I stand permanently on the sidelines. But when she collapses in my arms, everything comes into crystal clear focus. I don't even know her name, only that it's her. My mate. The one I've been waiting centuries for.
But she can't be my mate; she's human. My nose can't detect a single hint of wolf on her. So how can we be fated? It makes no sense. But when I see the omega seal shining on her palm, I know larger forces are at play.
But it's not until after I fight my way out of the bar, past her attackers, and back to the Enclave that all hell breaks loose. I've broken a cardinal rule, and now I must face the High Alpha—and one of my best friends—for punishment. I won't bend the knee, not with her life on the line. No matter the cost.
★★★★★If you
Wolf ShiftersFated Mates (but not insta-love)Forbidden RomanceOverprotective MMC ✨ Vibes ✨Cinnamon Roll HeroBillionairesFound Family & Supportive BestiesThis is the book for you!This book contains a HEA for our main couple. The story arc spans multiple books, but each one contains a new couple and a new romance, while still bringing in familiar faces until our world's problems are solved.
So much going on for nothing to happen. I really enjoyed the first couple books in this series, but at this point, this series is just being dragged out. I was really excited for Reed’s (MMC) book. Fiona was a good FMC. But both she and Reed threaten to leave far too often for me to buy that they’re really, really good together. Fiona spends the whole book trying to figure out what her magical heritage is. I enjoyed following along on that journey with her. Her romance with Reed has very little build up and with each of them threatening to leave the other or thinking they shouldn’t be together because they’re not good enough for each other, their love story is just ok. Major let down considering how much I was looking forward to Reed’s story.
Major spoilers ahead so I can get my rant out. ****Don’t read any further if you don’t want to see the spoilers****
The whole reason for anything to happen in this book was to get a hold of the omega stone to unite all the packs so that the wolves would rally behind changing the law about hunting omegas. But at the end the stone they recovered from the dwarves ended up being one piece of the whole omega stone and the other FOUR pieces are spread out over other magical species. If there has to be 4 more books before we can even get to the Great War that Fiona had a premonition about, I’m done with this series. I really liked this whole omega law subplot when the love stories were good. But between the last book and this one, it feels like the author should’ve made this into a trilogy and ended it. The romances in this book and the last are what the kids would call very “mid”. They complete their bond after Fiona is almost r*ped in Vegas, which for me, really goes against everything this author has done to make it seem like the fated mate bond is sacred. It seemed like a decision made hastily when emotions were heightened and Fiona was just trying to get Reed to stop feeling like he’s not good enough for her. I almost DNF’d at 60%, then at 80%. I’ll read the next to see if the rest of the series is going to be dragged out. But if it’s like this one, I’ll probably give up on it.

If you want a good shifter romance, start with this series. It is plot forward, the AO dynamics are slightly different than standard, and other shifters and species make heavy appearances. The characters aren't teeth-achingly sweet or overly cringy. Every time I pick up one of these, I binge it in 24 hours. I will be picking up anything April L Moon writes, no question.
I LOVED this book. Just like the rest of this series, this book was pure dopamine.. and might I say a new favorite?
It was fast paced, addictive, and full of love that made my heart explode. I couldn’t put it down.
The characters completely stole my heart, and their story had me grinning, gasping, and maybe even tearing up because it was so perfect.
The love between them felt so real, even if some parts were reappeared in the beginning. Still you could feel the warmth and loyalty in every scene, especially from the other characters. How easily they accepted Fiona made my heart just swell.
April L. Moon, you’ve ruined me in the best way. This entire series has made me want to crawl into the books and never leave.
I was delighted to get an ARC because I was eager for the next installment of the series—and I am glad I didn’t have to wait longer for this excellent continuation of the story. The romance is powerful, the tensions run high, and multiple mysteries to solve also expand the world-building.
What I particularly appreciate is the deft normalization of Fiona’s epilepsy. As someone in remission from a seizure disorder, it was particularly meaningful for me to have it discussed openly. It was a bonus that it was a regular part of life for a woman who was so powerful and strong.
Genre: Paranormal Romance ⭐️ 4/5 🌶 2/5 🧠 3/10 Noteworthy: Book 4 of an incomplete series of interconnected standalones with a heavy overarching plot. These must be read in order and have a different couple's pov in each book. Where we are from book 1 to book 4 is on the other side of the universe with how much has happened. 😂
I just flew through nearly 1500 pages of this series in 4 days and could probably read 1500 more right now! I very rarely read more than 2 books in a series back to back, but you could not pry this series out of my hands! The way the overarching plot is thick gets you invested is masterful. Brava April! Give me Olivia and Lucian's part of the story now, please!
Realizing this series is gonna be loooooong. This one in particular felt really long to get through. Granted I was in the process of moving, packing & unpacking, and working. But still this one felt slower. But as long as I go into the rest of the series knowing it’s not a quick read, I still will enjoy the plot for sure! I like this little paranormal world and the characters & that they each have their own stories & complications, histories and personalities, even between couples, I like that.
I feel like if you've made it to book 4 in this series, you're up for whatever is in store. And the ride just keeps getting more unexpected. Is this ever in a plausible or sensible fashion? Oh no, far from it! However, the shame resides with you for ever expecting it to be so. I've come to think of these books as fun palate cleansers. I'm never bored and I like all the main pack members. Thanks to April L. Moon for the ARC edition in exchange for an honest review.
The fourth book in the Hunted Omegas series is another hit! I only received the ARC earlier today, but here I am already, having inhaled it in one session!
Fated To The Wolf Billionaire really moves the continuing story along and opens the world up too. The romance between Reed and his mate Fiona was really strong! Fiona isn't a wolf shifter like the previous 3 FMCs are, so it added some nice variation to the series and I like that there's obviously more to come for Reed and Fiona in the next few books. Speaking of what's next, the epilogue at the end is (as always) amazing at pulling me into the next book and into the next couple's story. And as usual, I can't wait to continue the series!
Disclaimer: I received an Advance Reader Copy from the author, but this is my voluntary and honest review.
Fated To The Wolf Billionaire is book 4 in the Hunted Omegas series, it can be read as a standalone but for full enjoyment I highly recommend reading them in order. I absolutely loved and devoured this one. The vibe and tone of this one just felt really different. I loved how the tension was so high in this one, multiple things to uncover and the world building was on point. The way the author crafted Fiona was amazing, I thought it was so cool how different she was from everyone, it was really original, well to me anyways ! Just added something different from all the previous books.
Fiona & Reed together were just perfect. I loved their story and their romance. As always I love that we get to see the previous characters a lot in the books, so we see what's happening with them. Something I also really appreciated in this one was the representation for people living daily with epilepsy. I loved how the author approached it, normalized it and everyone around Fiona was so supportive. There are still many things to uncover and I am excited to see where the author takes the series next!
Overall, this was a fantastic addition to the series. I really enjoyed it and devoured it within hours. It was fast paced and action packed which kept me hooked. The epilogue also made me crave book 5 ASAP!
This series has such a hold on me! I literally devour every book! This book was just as good as the rest in the series! I mean the dedication alone was screaming "you have to read this book!" Also, the summary of past books in the series at the beginning of the book! That is my absolute FAVORITE thing and more authors need to start doing this!!!!
I love Reed's character and it was so great to meet his mate. I loved that the FMC was different and had a medical condition unlike other FMC who are usually healthy. This representation for people with medical conditions was so refreshing to see.
There was a lot more going on in this book with traveling to different places and the mystery of what Fiona is. I also love getting to see characters from other books as well. This book is one of my favorites of the series.
Honestly, it’s the same reason for all the other DNF and low reviews. Reed was a character I liked in the other book, and suddenly any personality he had went out the window. He was a stale saltine cracker.
Fiona wasn’t really hooking me.
When I found out they were going on yet another adventure to search for something aka drag the whole Omega plot on more…I just stopped. I came here, read some spoilers, and it’s not worth reading any more. I might read the next one, but idk. I don’t see resolution for the main sub plot any time soon, and now the plots with each couple is getting watered down, too.
Okay first, the plot is thickeningggg i need olivias book like yesterday to be able to know where we are going with this because i am on the absolute edgee. I loved this book and i lovedddd fionaaa she was a badass alright and she knewww what she wanted and went for it and i loved her for that. Reed reed reed oy this maan is full of surprises and he was trying his absolute best to be the man that deserves her and it was the sweetest thing ever.
For me their relationship felt like a second priority of the book for the plot so we didnt get to see their relationship evolvee (and i needed more of that) for example she mentioned more than once that she wanted to get to know him more the personality likes and dislikes and i didnt feel they had any convo of that sort, also there was couple of plot holes that made noo sense, she had a job back in the states that somehow disappeared when they got together same with her hobbie of watching animals and creating the book (her big goal hopes and dreams) which kind of pissed me off because it was as if all her life outside her new discovery is null. And for me it was hilarious (and not sure why) but everythingggg in this book was hornyyyy on any journey they went or an adventure or if they are facing something its most likely as one of them is horny🤦🏻♀️. And i truly and utterly feel like i didnt understand what she is??? Like they mentioned a name and that she read about it and somehow over night she was a master at controlling her powers like what??????
All in all not the best plotted book but the couple sort of saved it and the major plot is evolving.
This book gave everything it needed to give (except a few unwanted typos). I got fantasy, smut, and I like this world although dwarf world confused me, need the next one asap please and thank you xoxo
The story continues from the previous book where Fiona and Reed meet, along with the back story, so be sure to read the books before this one. I enjoyed the relationship between the two main characters. I liked how more supernatural species are introduced and interacted with. I would have liked to have read and learned more about Fiona’s gifts and her species. Although we get a little more information on how to solve the omega issue, I feel there is too much to cover making it hard to see the end and where or when the series ends. I was given an ARC to read, thank you to the author.
Loved the story line. After Leigh/Gael (enemies to lovers trope), this couple (Reed/Fiona) was a welcome reprieve. It was nice to see them fall in love and no 3rd act breakup scene. I enjoyed the addition of another species although I wish we got a bit more regarding Fiona’s species. I wanted to see her use her powers more especially after she began to accept that her powers weren’t evil. But hopefully we might get a little more in the next book. I have enjoyed this entire series and I’m excited for the next one.
Thank you April L. Moon for giving me the opportunity to read this book prior to release.
I received this as an ARC for a review! I have loved this series and was looking forward to this book. Reed and Fiona are the pure embodiment of loving each other for who a person is as a whole. Between her chronic illness and his need to protect everyone he cares about especially her, they make a perfect team. While they are trying to figure everything with the Omegas and the secrets about Fiona everyone comes together as a packa.nd chosen family to find answers together. This was such a great book I highly recommend it! I can't wait for Fated to the Scarred Wolf!
4.5 stars! This book is my favorite of this series and this author so far! The story jumps right in. The new character seamlessly integrates to the pack dynamic. Like she was always meant to be there. It’s so good I had to put it down to savor it a little longer and not end too fast. I had a book high already at 34% which is rare for me. The pace was just right and kept my distracted mind fully engaged. Awesome action, mystery, and overall storyline with a variety of character species. Some of which I haven’t read before and as I read over 100 books a year it surprised me. I love that the FMC had “flaws” and wasn’t a perfect mold while so many other characters out there have emotional trauma or ordeals to overcome, which can get kinda boring and predictable TBH. I don’t think I’ve read about a character with her condition. Reminded me of the FMC in Fourth Wing with EDS. Overall great read. And my first ever ARC! So fun and I’m glad this was my first.
Oh and the author’s note at the end spoke to me. Gave me chills and a feeling of gratitude. For her words and for myself and all that I am. Flaws and all.
The main problem with this book as well as the previous ones was that the other needs to cut. stictly just cut out repetitions. the RREADER does not need to hear about the invitation to the king at 7pm 4 times in 2 pages. We dont need that info and def not that often. It is just plain stupid. also they all have zero character. the whole group has no personality its just a bunch of `we are fam now`and `we love each other`and so they always get along and they always understadn the other and totally and without talking understand excalty with what the other is struggeling. like ???? i.e. the guy and girl meet and on the 2nd day he already excatly knows thta the reason she is sad is because she feels like she doesnt belong. and he explains it in the exact same wording that the girl thought it in the chapter before.
also idk how to describe it but it feels like you can tell how much was written in one sitting because there will be 3-4 chapters that have repeatedlythe same wording and saying as phrasings its insane
Okay I dnf-ed this book at 38%. Let me start by saying that I read books 1, 2 and 3 all in one go and I was so engrossed in the series that I couldn’t wait for this book to come out. But picking up this book and trying to read it, honestly felt like such a mission. Was I happy to see the characters again ? Yes. Did I love Reed in the previous books? Also yes. But this book just wasn’t it. I don’t know how to explain it except that I feel like the plot just keeps dragging on. And whilst I liked some of the way Reed spoke to Fiona (and I even liked her a bit) I just felt like they were instantly together and it was all just too weird. I don’t think I’ll be continuing the series also I wish I knew how the plot line resolves. But from the spoilers I read about the rest of this book, I knew I would not enjoy it so I gave up.
I need to stop reading this series, but I really wanted to know how the author was going to wrap up the overarching plotline. However, at this rate it's never going to wrap up. This instalment was all insta-love, Reed's personality changing, and lots of reference to the women with the Omega mark being hunted by males and possibly forcibly mated (which obviously made me super uncomfy). Unfortunately (for me), I do want to read Olivia's story so I probably will still read the next one.
I wanted to like this book, but at what point do you give up in a story that is going nowhere. I loved the first installment of the series, the second was good, but its been all down hill since the third.
Writing: The pacing of this book in particular was ridiculous. The problems and the speed made their relationship seem fake. In the past books, with Brielle and Shay the mate bond was instant. Then Leigh's book showed them being oblivious to the mate bond even after hooking up. The way everyone responds to the bond honestly makes me question how it even works. If you're going to write a series this long, you need to let things actually happen in the books and give the characters consequences. The fact that nobody has died since book 1 is ridiculous.
Plot: The idea of the omega plotline occurring throughout the series was interesting, but we're at the point where it's getting frustrating. I feel like each book add 5 new issues, but only resolves 1. By the end of this book, we added the mystery of Lucien and Olivia, the four new Omega stone pieces, the war with the different species, whatever is happening with Lucien, and the removal of the Omega curse. The only thing that was mildly resolved was the question of Fiona's magic (and even that is still mostly unexplored). The fact that we don't find out Fiona is a djinn until 80% is ridiculous. Then literally after less than a week of finding out she has powers, she's magically mastered them?!? Also, I understand that mates want to be close to one another, but sending Leigh (who is still pregnant) and Fiona (who's omega mark attracts every wolf in the area to come breed her) to Italy on a potentially threatening diplomatic mission was beyond stupid. Shay and Dirge were the only couple that should've gone with Reed. Fiona would've been protected behind the magic boundary.
FMC: She was pretty boring. Nothing Fiona said or did stood out to me. She constantly thought she was unworthy of Reed and kept fighting their relationship. Seeing as she's not a wolf, I feel like it could've been interesting to throw in some of her own quirks or more responses to the wolf culture. They had that at first, but then, at about halfway through, she all of a sudden accepted that she was part of the pack and everything in wolf culture just fell into place.
MMC: Reed was fine, but he was basically white bread. He didn't have any strong personality traits except being an alpha obsessed with his mate. With how old he is, I feel like we could've gotten some interesting stories, or maybe something about his business dealings, but no. All we get is that he's an alpha and very rich.
Spice: Meh, it was fine. The fact that sex spiked her "storm" powers was very Fourth Wing-esque. The one spice scene that really bothered me was their mating. They keep putting it off because they want everything to be perfect, but then she almost gets sexually assaulted, and that's the perfect time to seal their lives together forever. It left a bad taste in my mouth.
Overall: I'll probably give this series another try, because I am mildly invested in the omega subplot. Hopefully the next couple will be better, and maybe the author will learn how to raise the stakes and actually resolve some of the plotlines she's started.

I love a good fated mates story, and this book delivered exactly what I came for. Give me angsty werewolves and supernatural chemistry, and I’m in! Now let’s talk about Reed. Ever since he tiptoed into book one, I’ve had my eye on him, but things really got interesting in his brother’s book, Fated to the Feral Wolf. And yes, I’m still not over the fact that his brother’s name is Dirge. Who names their child after a funeral song? Who approved this? Fiona was a mixed bag for me. When she wasn’t busy throwing herself a pity party, she was strong, smart, and seriously fun to read. The way she clapped back at Reed’s (admittedly hot) alpha bossiness was iconic. She wasn’t about to let anyone—mate or not—make her decisions for her, and I respected that. She’s the kind of sassy that makes you want to be her best friend and give her a high-five for every savage comeback. (reminds me of myself 😉)
“So help me God—I am going to pitch a fit the likes of which you’ve never seen if you try to mansplain it to me again why I can’t come with you to Las Vegas.”
See what I mean?? 😆
The plot actually had substance (thank you, April L. Moon), and the spice was exactly the right level of “please don’t read this in public.” It’s a tough balance to strike, and she pulled it off. And then there’s the epilogue. The nerve. How dare you dangle that delicious teaser and then make us wait until October? Rude. Cruel. Effective marketing. All in all: entertaining, steamy, and just the right amount of dramatic. Consider me obsessed! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ HEA? yes 3rd act break-up? no 🌶🌶🌶/5
Book Review: Fated to the Wolf Billionaire by April L. Moon – ⭐️ 4.5 Stars
Book four takes us into the world of our billionaire wolf bestie, Reed, as he discovers his fated mate. But there’s a twist… she appears to be human. Sharp intake of breath, anyone? But of course, nothing is ever that simple.
I loved this book. It’s officially my highest-rated of the series so far. Introducing a mate from outside the original circle added such a refreshing dynamic. She’s strong-willed, knows exactly what she wants, and refuses to settle for anything less.
What made this even better was that our FMC isn’t painted as a “perfect” mate, she’s dealing with medical issues, but she doesn’t let that define her. And the best part? It’s not even a question or a concern for Reed.
This book also gave us new destinations and a plot centered squarely around the couple. Yes, the overarching Omega storyline is still brewing in the background (and getting worse), but this one felt like we actually got our couples story. Do we even get a cheeky play on a Vegas wedding? Wink wink.
Now, let’s talk about that bonus chapter, “what happened during the 6-day rut.” Leigh’s book assumed we knew all the knot/heat/rut basics, and I wanted more. This chapter gave us a delicious teaser, and honestly? It could’ve gone even deeper, and I would’ve happily devoured it.
The only downside? Now I have to wait for Olivia’s book. I’m stressed. The plot is thickening, problems are escalating, and I need answers immediately.
Until the next billionaire mate bond… Same time next read.
🫶❤️Spoilerfreie Rezension für eine weiterhin actionreiche Serie – die nur Pageturner und Lesehighlights hervorbringt! 🫶
Nachdem ich die ersten drei Bücher der Reihe gelesen habe und diese mich absolut flashten, war klar, dass ich die Geschichte um die Omegas un-be-dingt weiterverfolgen musste.
April L. Moon schreibt nachdrücklich und vereinnahmend. Sie entwickelt von Beginn an einen Sog, der nicht mehr loslässt. Die Geschichte selbst hatte Wendungen, die ich so nicht erwartet hätte (und es ist ja schon Buch 4(!)), die jedoch dafür sorgen, dass das Buch total fasziniert und ein absoluter Pageturner ist.
Ich konnte nicht mehr aufhören zu lesen. Die Geschichte hatte eine Sogwirkung, der ich mich nicht entziehen konnte. Die Charaktere wurden bildgewaltig und vielschichtig gezeichnet. Man hat direkt das jeweilige Bild vor Auge! Handlungen sind stimmig, das Buch zieht in seinen Bann. Dieses Mal gibt es erneut eine Bonus – Szene, was mich gefreut hat.
Auch der Auszug, in den wir kurz reinlesen durften sorgte direkt für den Wunsch, gleich weiterlesen zu wollen. Leider heißt es da, dass man sich noch gedulden muss… 🥹
Wer also Shifter-Romane mag, Pageturner klasse findet und ein Buch-Highlight sein Eigen nennen möchte, der kommt an diesem Buch definitiv nicht vorbei. Einfach nur wundervoller Pageturner!
Von mir also 5 von 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sternen dafür und eine absolute Leseempfehlung!
