Unhingedverse #4

Broken Dreams

Rate this book
At fifteen, I was kidnapped from the only life I knew. A simple day out with friends turned into betrayal when my family's guards handed me over to monsters.

My family and the friends who once protected me are now distant memories. In this place, hope doesn’t exist. I’ve been molded into the perfect omega, sold to the highest bidder.

My captor runs a club that never stays in one place for long. Sunlight is a distant dream, and my morals have crumbled—what’s the point of goodness when every move is controlled?

I live a life of broken dreams, with no hope for change. That is, until two alphas appear, bringing with them the scent of home. But scent matches aren’t meant for omegas like me. Am I better left forgotten?

This is a dark, mafia omegaverse set in the Unhingedverse, brimming with regret, redemption, and angst. There are two omegas as well in this story. It is why choose, and the pack will grow as the story develops. There will be MM content in this book.

Why do I continue to give this author chances?

The story always sounds like it's going to be interesting and full of the tropes i love- hurt/comfort, protective alphas, who hurt you vibes. What I end up with instead is a TON of trauma porn, love interests who really aren't much better (and one in par) than the abusers.



So... yeah. This author has a habit of having a main love interest do unforgivable things to his mate(s) and have it forgiven and forgotten.

I've now read 3 books by this author. That's 3 strikes. She's out. Putting her on my do-not-read list.

Every time I immerse myself in Jenn Bullard’s creative voice, I’m certain she cannot do it better and I continually eat my words. I’ve always been someone who find more comfort in the shadows than in the light and I love how Jenn never shies from these darker scenarios.

Broken Dreams is a beautifully nuanced look at how trauma manifests in not only emotion (psychological) scars but also bodily one’s. Quinn’s resilience to not crumble in the face of vile and unspeakable torture is as heartbreaking as it is inspiring. It was humbling to witness her and her scent matches navigate the turbulent waters even though the devastation of she’s endured is viscerally palpable.

The quietness of her support was a perfect counterpoint to the violence of her life in captivity. The unfolding of her love story only being strengthened by the support of our previous Unhingedverse packs as they rallied around her.

I cannot recommend Jenn’s storytelling enough and how heartbreakingly beautiful this addition is to the series. I would be remiss in telling you that there are some very dark and possibly triggering topics covered in the books, so please check content warnings. And run, don’t walk, when this releases on February 20th..

I forgot how much I dislike the mafia trope. I didn’t like the MMCs in this book, and Christian was a POS who never deserved either of them

urgh Christian

Honestly this would be a 5 star if it wasn’t for Christian the scent match alpha that should of saved his omegas the first chance he had however over 10 years with Quinn to get her out but he never did what kind of scent match does that. The brothers got both Quinn and Linus out as soon as they knew where they were! You’re telling me they managed to do it the first time when he didn’t even try he only offered money to buy them!
He was quickly to be forgiven it would have been so much better if he wasn’t forgiven at all and had to deal with his consequences. I don’t think I’ve ever hated a member of a harem as much as this. Such a poor decision by the author. I honestly don’t know how this book has so many 5 star reviews. My guess is because of Linus and Quinn’s relationship as it was really cute and so were the brothers.

As good as all the others in the

I am sorry to see this series end. It has been great. They are emotionally draining, but I feel so good when I finish them. She’s a very talented writer. This had some very dark places in it and things so be warned if that’s a trigger. I thought it was great. The fact. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥/5

Wow. This book is beautiful. Quinn/Makayla has suffered so much trauma in 20 years. Luckily, she and Linus have each other to lean on. Duncan and Callum have never given up finding their best friend. Christian meets Makayla and Linus under less than savory conditions but knows that they are his. This story is great with a lot of revenge. We also get some scenes with characters from the previous book. Kane's scenes are especially adorable and hilarious. Jenn is a fantastic omegaverse writer, and I will always read her books. I definitely recommend this book and can't wait for the next one! Be sure to check the trigger warnings before diving in!

Look it is no secret that I am in love with jenn Bullard. If I wanted to have a secret love child, it would be with Jenn's DNA. Because can you imagine the baby that we would make? Like she's unhinged. And I'm low-key a golden retriever. OMG, we would have a mini George Kittle. Look out world.

Anyway, again back to the fact that I am in love with Jenn and that does not end with this book. This book broke me and then put me back together again. Like, we already met the Kelly brothers. We know the Kelly brothers. We love the Kelly brothers. What we didn't expect was Linus. What we stayed for was Christian Sanchez. Like hola. I am in love. I will stay rooted to my seat until I can get the next omegaverse.

Btw, the nice little appearance from Adira and her pack. That's just the icing on the cake.

We meet the Kelly Brothers (Callum & Duncan) in Adira’s Tangled in Knots. This is their story.

Quinn/Makayla suffers trauma in twenty years and meets Linus. They become friends and lean on each other through their torment at Slick Dreams.
During their time at Slick Dreams they meet Christian who knows that they are his.
Callum and Duncan have never given up on trying to find Quinn. The relationship between the brothers is amazing and the love for their best friend is adorable.
Lots of revenge plots and adorable themes from characters in the other books.
Love Jenn’s books. All her characters are amazing and I always look forward to her books.

The Unhingedverse Keeps Getting Better & Better!!!

This book is my favorite in this series! I have been (im)patiently waiting for the Kelly Brother's story and prayed they'd find their BFF/LOTL Quinn. After 20 long years they FINALLY find her AND for all their suffering were granted not one but TWO scent match omegas. (They deserve this happiness).

I opened this book and just could not put it down. (Sleep? Who needs that when you have coffee and gummy bears to get you through the day?)

I love that we got to see the other packs make guest appearances. Shaw getting emotional while chatting on a call. Kane and his crazy antics and various baby carriers.

I am left rooting for two additional alphas that were very sweet and seemed like they too can use a happy ending. I don't want to spoil anything so I am going to leave it at that.

The Kelly brothers finally get their girl. And their man, just as an added extra. But the things that have happened to Quinn and Linus are dreadful, things that no omega should ever have to endure. Duncan and Callum Kelly though are the best men for the job of bringing their omegas back to life, nothing seems to phase them, they just get on, problem solve and come up with solutions. I fell for both of them in Adira’s story and she’s still a great presence in this one. She offers friendship and support so easily, as do her pack. There are so many dark parts to this, mainly to do with with selling of omegas by their own families.
Jenn once again teaches me another life lesson, this time over negligence, which I’d never thought of in that way before. Also candles! When you know…….!
I loved this, there are happy endings in amongst the darkness and great character building that leads to much more. Simply brilliant!

Every time I read an omegaverse book from Jenn Bullard, I'm blown away. I am absolutely in awe of how well this woman writes. Like how do you create stories that keep you on the edge of your seat and make all of your readers so emotionally invested!?

I couldn't put this down. I've been waiting for the Kelly brothers to get their happily ever after and this next book in the unhingedverse series did not disappoint. And I loved seeing the over-arching plot points through the series continue to develop. Plus seeing all of the previous packs - this series continues to be a favorite of mine.

Broken Dreams was angsty and fully of hurt/Comfort, but also had some incredibly sweet and tender moments that had me swooning. (And a few that had me laughing out loud!)

This was so good, and I'm eagerly awaiting the next in this series!

Repetitive

Unfortunately, after reading the previous books in the series this book just began to feel repetitive. I enjoyed some of the character development but the plot felt like it was following a formula.

Broken Dreams made my skin crawl.
Are you trying to tell me I'm supposed to find Christian attractive after the utter bullshit he pulled? Iʼm disgusted. I havenʼt read a book this misrepresented in a long time.

Wow this was absolutely amazing read. I loved Duncan and Callum in Tangled in Knots so I was extremely exited to read more on them and wow they did not disappoint in any way.
This is a daårk omegaverse so some parts were hard to read as Quinn/Makayla went through hëll. It keeps you totally engrossed throughout as the character find their way with each other in a mäfia world. I loved having previous characters appear continuing their stories a little too.

Quinn/Makayla was kǐdnäpped/sôld at 14 yęars old. She was held by a hörrendously abüsive man for four and a half years before being søld to Slick Dreams when she aged out of his tastes. Quinn lost her voice after his tręatment, not by injury but by pure tęrror and tråuma. Slick Dreams is a traveling whöre house, where again she’s subjected to ųnspeakable things at the hands of Bret. He hątes the fact she won’t talk and pųnishes her a lot whilst also prötecting her in his abųsive way as his most popular girl. Quinn meets Linus here, another omega that was also kîdnapped. They become extremely close looking after each other as best they can.

Linus is a sweet male omega that’s been held at Slick Dreams for years after his own kîdnäpping off the streets. He became close to Quinn/Makayla straight off and together they have supported each other massively.

Callum and Duncan have been searching for their best friend and love for the past 20 years. When they get a tip about Slick Dreams they work to get into the club. When a heat invitation becomes available who sounds like Quinn they jump at the chance to be apart of the sale, just to get inside the place. Fortunately it is Quinn! After her heat they rěscue her and Linus with the help of the other three men present once told their scent matches to both Quinn and Linus.

Back home and together they work at recovering, whilst Callum and Duncan spoil and love them, treating them like treasures they are.

Christian is an årms dealer that’s been visiting Slick Dreams and his scent matches for 16 years (10yrs for Linus). Quinn and Linus were unaware due to the cöncoction of drügs Bret feeds them. Never once did Christian try to free them, saying he was busy traveling blah blah!!! 😡 But once they were rěscued and not available to him did he realise what a huge and terrible mistake he’d made. Now he has to work hard at earning their forgiveness and be apart of the pack.

“I don’t care what your past looks like,”
All we want is today and all of your tomorrow,” Duncan

No other author has captured Dark Omegaverse quiet like Jenn does.

Broken Dreams, the next book in the unhingedverse series, did not disappoint.I could not put this book down. Just like the previous books, the storyline instantly suckes you into the utterly dark and twisted underworld of mafia, trafficking and stolen dreams.

The Kelly brothers are finally getting their omega's !! Yes, omega's as in two.

Quinn and Linus are both a power house of strength and resilience, and we are shown throughout the book the struggles and challenges they have to overcome to learn to live through the worst imaginable circumstances they endured in their lives.

Of cause it would have been out of character if the author never threw us all a wicked curve ball with an additional alpha to the storyline that I honestly had mixed feelings for in the beginning. These alpha's are not good men, and all of them have their own demons to slay, but when it comes to each other and their pack, nothing comes in their way to protect and cherish them.

Another one of the things that I really have thoroughly enjoyed with the series is seeing all the previous packs making appearances throughout the story and how it just seamlessly all flows together, and that is sign of an epic writter.

Broken Dreams was a page-turner filled with angst, horrowing truths
but also had love ,retribution with a capital R, and the ending is a HEA still in the process

l'm eagerly awaiting the next in
this series!

Broken Dreams by Jenn Bullard Book in Unhingedverse
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🌶🌶🌶🌶💀💀💀💀
I am well acquainted with Jenn and her beautiful writing but Broken dreams is different. Deeper, darker and more emotional. It's a slow, continuous build of everything, from the anxiety, plot developments, slow burn, healing and figuring out yourself and life. Broken Dreams hits harder, louder and bolder and I love it.
Quinn is sold, her voice lost in all the tradegy she faced but after all of it she's not broken, never and not alone. She has Linus, her omega partner. Together they keep each other safe.The Kelly brothers finally found their long lost love and they do everything right. Green flags all the way! These alphas set the standard high. We do have a red flag alpha that needs some work but he finds his way with a little help from previous characters. Having these crossover with all these different characters from previous books creates a big, warm community, slightly unhinged but loyal and artistic. IYKYK
Jenn Bullard's macabre creative writing makes for explosive reading. Her uniqueness shines brighter than any candle could...
Tropes:
Triggers. Forced Proximity. Omegas. Mute omega. Smexy worker. Found family. Healing. Action. Suspense.
Quotes:
I would never be able to live without smelling her sweet scent again. I know omegas can’t scent match, but she’s mine regardless. I want to stay with her forever, even if it means being here.

He knows so much about me even with how little I speak. It just goes to show that if someone wants to understand you, they’ll move heaven and earth to do it.

“I don’t care what your past looks like,” I say vehemently. “All we want is today and all of your tomorrows,” Duncan rasps,

I absolutely loved this book. I fell in love with Callum and Duncan in Tangled in Knots. I’m so excited they got their own book. I’m so happy they finally found their Omega Quinn that was missing for years. They never forgot about her. I felt sad for them when I read Tangled in Knots. They are amazing men / Alpha’s. So kind, generous and genuine.

I was relieved that Quinn had Linus with her all this time. Both these Omegas were there for each other and it’s awesome they are also scent matched as well. Linus is so protective over Quinn. It’s so sweet to see that.

I kind of felt bad and also disliked Christian at times. I felt he should have helped Quinn and Linus knowing that they are also his scent match. It the end he definitely redeemed himself.

There were a lot of twist and turns in this book. Definitely watch for triggers. I love how Callum, Duncan, and Christian all banded together to protect their Omegas.

It was awesome to see Adira and her pack mentioned throughout this book. I absolutely loved their story in Tangled in Knots. I love all of Jenn Bullard’s books in the Unhingedverse series but I have to admit my favorite is Broken Dreams. I’ve been impatiently waiting for this one. I’m so excited to read more future books in the series. I wish I could have rated this book as more than 5 stars. I would have rated it a 10 star book. Thank you Jenn Bullard for an another amazing book!!!!

I knew it. I knew it. I KNEW I was going to love the Kelly brothers, even more than I did when we first met them in Tangled in Knots. They're the perfect Alpha males, who are dominant and possessive, but devoted and obsessed as well. They're hot, kind, caring, and so funny, and I fell in love with them instantly. That love grew through this whole book. Then comes Linus. MY GOD, LINUS. He's an omega who has some of his own trauma, similar to Quinn's. He understands her on a level the other guys cannot, because he's experienced the same things. Then we meet Christian. I honestly didn't know what to expect with him. I could tell there would likely be something there with how Quinn reacts to him, but I just wasn't sure if he'd make the cut, or if he'd be able to earn forgiveness. Surprisingly, I think his punishment lasted longer than it should have. I think I forgave him before Quinn did! LOL! That's actually really unusual for me.. usually I don't forgive the guy until the FMC does. I don't know what it was about Christian that made me fall for him so quickly. I think it was because though he did make mistakes (not saying what those are), you could tell he truly regretted his choices and was willing to do whatever it took to earn her trust. I loved this book so much. As per usual with a Jenn Bullard book, check the trigger warnings! FMCs in Jenn's books do not have it easy, and this book is no exception.

Honestly if I want an angsty omegaverse reverse harem… Jenn is who Im going to 10000% of the time.

I have been SO excited for the Kelly Brother’s story after the last book. And this did *not* disappoint. At first I was a little nervous because I dont usually like books with 2 omega’s.. but one male and one female is usually ok and I remembered that Knot my Sin by the same author had the same pack set up and I had LOVED that one so I figured.. may as well see where this goes.

And boy oh boy. I was NOT disappointed. The love the two omegas had for each other was honestly the most beautiful part of the entire story. I dont know why I thought it would only be the Kelly brothers but I was pleasantly surprised by the addition of anther alpha and this entire book lived up to and surpassed my expectations.

Quinn has gone through more than anyone ever should in her life. All the hurt and pain and trauma has really dont a job on her and the way she did everything she could to take care of Linus.. and the way he did everything he could to take care of her? Gah. It was the most beautiful part of the entire story. I *loved* them!

The Kelly brothers were perfection. The way they helped both Quinn and Linus.. the way they were there every step of the way and the REVENGE was on fucking point.

Please pleas please keep writing more amazing angsty hurt/comfort dark omegaverse romances I BEG of you!!

First let me say this book is  longggg. But each and every page is needed to give those guys the story they needed.
I loved how the author gave the story and the Romance time to develop without any rushes. There was a lot going on with these characters.

I absolutely loved this from the beginning to end. I loved the connection Quinn had with her men. I especially love Christian. He knew he messed up but worked his butt off to prove how much he has changed. The growth he went through was everything.

Duncan and Callum were just as amazing in their book as I was expecting. They've been looking for their Quinnie and once they found her and Linus they did everything in their power to keep them safe. They gave them everything they could possibly need or want but most importantly they LOVED Quinn and Linus. There was no doubt that those boys were head over heels.

Quinn and Linus went through Hell and back. I loved how it doesn't matter how rough/bad the times got they never lost the connection they had. They didn't let their past stop them from being able to move forward and find happiness.

Like I said the book was long cause there was a lot of stuff that needed to happen and stuff that didn't to take their time resolving. I absolutely loved this book. The chemistry and connection between these characters were off the charts. Seeing characters from previous books made me sooooo happy. I can't wait to come back to this world and see what else this author has for us!

People say they have an angel on one shoulder and a devil on the other.....

I just have a Tiny Pixie by the name of Jenn.

I pride myself on creative reviews ~just go see my review of Liadan's Code if you're curious. This isn't one of those kind of reviews. While I simply adore the Kelly brothers and continued to fall head-over-heels EVEN MORE in love with those boys with every page and I thoroughly enjoyed seeing Pack Dresmond again (can Kane get any cuter getting ready for fatherhood??), this book is super special to me in ways I can't even begin to divulge here.

But I can say this: evil ex's can't hide from Pixie's wrath and I'll leave you to guess which one is the real life mine. I can also say I screamed at her to get out of my head more than once when she absolutely appeared to be plucking real life details out of thin air, as if magic.

From the NIH:"Research using fMRI scans demonstrates that when reading, the brain activates areas associated with not only language processing but also with experiencing the events and emotions described in the text, essentially "simulating" the actions and situations being read about, making it feel like the reader is experiencing what they are reading to some degree; this is particularly evident when reading vivid descriptions in fiction." And it is as gratifying as it is therapeutic.

So I really enjoyed the first book in the series I could not bring myself to read the last book because I don’t feel comfortable with the omega ending up with someone who sold her when they knew she was their scent match and who continues to do her harm. This book has the Kelly brothers who I really love. I also love the relationship between Linus and Quinn. But Christian… Look honestly my biggest issue with this book is the timeline… 20 years is just too long for her to be disappeared and used the way she is. She’s already in her 30’s. Because Christian left her in that hellhole after everything she already suffered so do not find him redeemable AT ALL! It’s just too long a time period for him to do nothing k owing she is suffering and his scent match. Same goes for Linus and the 10 years he’s known about him. The author just left too big a time for all this. I think if the time would have been 10 years of her being disappeared then that would mean 6 years of him leaving her in a sex club knowing they are scent matched. But 16 years is just too much of a timeline. This timeline bothered me immensely. I think a different timeline would have made me feel a different way completely and I would have given the book 5 stars but I just can’t with the timeline. 20 years is ridiculous. It’s makes so many things just unforgivable.

I am a huge fan of Jenn’s Unhingedverse and was excited for The Kelly Brothers’ story! I fell in love with Callum and Duncan In Tangled In Knots and loved their friendship with Adira. They have been searching for their long lost friend Quinn for 20 YEARS!

When they finally find her…it is not smooth sailing. Quinn has been through hell and no longer speaks. She has another omega Linus with her. Could the Kelly’s have more than one scent match?

My heart broke for all the characters - Quinn and Linus had so much trauma in their lives and had never been able to just be an omega. I loved seeing them slowly be able to be themselves. Both of them are so strong (and know how to punch!)

Oh Christian…he has some serious groveling to do…but I will say he eventually won me over.

Grandma Diedre was the character I didn’t know I needed in my life! We also get to see more of Pack Dresmond and their progress - and a certain use of a baby doll that is one part hilarious and one part endearing…well ok really mostly endearing but you’ll laugh out loud at the visual!

Yes this book is dark but there are some really great heart warming moments and great banter too! I loved Adira’s friendship with Quinn and Linus.

I love this world Jenn has created - with every book we get a bigger picture of what is going on and how different characters are connected!

This absolutely can be read as a standalone but I highly recommend reading the other books first. This is a dark omegaverse so check those TWs before reading.

I was nervous to start this one, but once I did, I could not put this book down. I had to know how these characters get together. They needed to get their HEA.

Quinn and Linus have gone through some absolutely awful things. Both are omegas who met in captivity. They leaned on each other and developed feelings for one another. They absolutely deserve the world.

Christian, oh, he was someone I really didn't want to end up liking. Mistakes? Yea, he made plenty of those. The Kelly brothers Duncan and Callum! Absolutely my favorite. 20 years is a long time not to lose hope. They searched until they finally found their girl. Then, they proceeded to do everything to help 2 omegas heal.

I loved seeing characters from previous books in this one. The Kelly brothers were amazing in this one. Christian, I was determined to dislike, but I don't know how Jenn Bullard does it. Slowly but surely, I started to change my mind about him. Linus and Quinn leaned so heavily on each other that I'm glad they're actually seeking help to deal with the trauma they went through. I'm excited to see more of these characters in the next book. I don't want to spoil anything, but the ending made me so happy for this pack.

When we met Duncan and Callum in Tangled in Knots, I KNEW I had fallen hard and fast for the Kelly boys - how could I knot 😉

As in true Pixie fashion, this is a dark read. This book had my heart ripping to shreds at times for nit just Quinn but allllll the characters. Jenn reallllly knows how to evoke alll the emotions bc while I felt for Quinn & my sweet baby Linus, I was also outraged at their treatment pre-kelly boys.

I loved seeing all my faves and i cackled at the reference to the 🍆👨🏻‍🎨🖼️🖌️ #iykyk

And I have to just mention Christian. I really do like him. But when Quinn said “I’m hurt by his inaction. Callum and Duncan moved heaven and earth to find me. I heard someone say in a song that if ‘he wanted to, he would.’ Needless to say, it resonated.” I was screaming FAAAACTSSSSS. I understand the circumstances but over a decade of witnessing what was happening? My dude. How? But i digress.

While Jenn often has me feeling everyGOTdamn emotion, i trust her to hurt me and then heal me in the best ways.

This book is a must read for those sick, depraved wenches like me that like our romance on the dark side.

Ps. Its a standalone in an interconnected world, so read the others first

Pss. Check the triggers.

This one? Dark. Like, Jenn Bullard doesn’t pull a single punch. We’ve got a stolen omega, sold young, trained into a fantasy, and fully convinced that her only purpose is to be what others want. And when her chance at freedom comes, it doesn’t come softly, it comes with two intense, slightly feral alphas, one quiet, sweet male omega, and a surprise alpha protector with his own baggage.

The dynamics here are so emotionally rich, this isn’t an easy, fluffy found-family situation. It’s layered, raw, and the trust is hard-earned. Watching the pack form and grow around her, each person with their own trauma and way of loving, was honestly the best part. You’ve got fierce protection, gentle understanding, and the kind of slow-burn intimacy that hurts before it heals.

This is not for the faint of heart, and it absolutely comes with trigger warnings, but if you’re here for:
✨ Healing that isn’t linear
✨ Why-choose with layered emotional payoff
✨ Broken characters learning to love themselves and each other
✨ A heroine who refuses to be what they made her

Then Broken Dreams will tear you apart and put you back together. It’s brutal, beautiful, and worth every gut-wrenching minute.

I feel horrible for Quinn and Linus. They have been through so much trauma throughout their lives. They both are so strong, and I loved seeing them grow and get thier life back. The chemistry between the alphas and Omegas was sizzling 🔥🥵🔥🥵🔥🥵

Jenn does a great job at sucking you into her stories and making you love her unhinged characters!

Love the unique ways of torture 🫣😂🫣😂 🔥🔥🔥🔥😂🫣😂🫣

I love that we get crossover with our favorite characters from previous books. Kane is hilarious and adorable with his baby.

I love the ending and can not wait to see what happens with everyone. I'm super excited for the next book!

Eeeek! So Good!

Broken Dreams is book 5 in the Unhingedverse series. I really recommend starting this series from the beginning since most of the characters these books appear in each consecutive book and they are too special to miss!

Broken Dreams has two of the Alphas that have intrigued me from the beginning and they are finally getting their story and I could not be more thrilled! There are many unexpected new and interesting characters and such a great plot to not only this story but the overall arc of the series.

Broken Dreams is full of broken and damaged characters, found friends and family, healing and strength and a bit of revenge and redemption and OMG the ending! There is not a cliffhanger per se but we will definitely see these characters in the next book and I cannot wait!!!!!

Sensitive readers should check the triggers as this is a dark, mafia heavy, Omegaverse with violence, trafficking of people, mental health issues and plenty of spicy MMFMM action. This book is not for the faint of heart and there is nothing held back, but all the angst is very important to this incredible story line. I highly recommend jumping into this truly unhinged Omegaverse series!

As always with Jenn's books, check your triggers before diving in.

With that said....JENNNNNNN!!!! I cannot say enough how beautiful your books are. While I might be antsy to see certain people in this world be unalived, it's worth the wait. It's worth seeing your characters damaged, and not seeing any happy. To them finally getting their HFN. Reading them grow into themselves. Reading them getting their revenge. The CREATIVENESS of their revenge(yeah I'm talking about that scene. Pretty sure I was smiling and laughing the entire time). I'd like insight on how that scene came about. Lol. I love seeing characters from previous books pop in and how they are doing. Kane and the carriers were the cutest thing ever!
I'm totally in love with the Kelly brothers! They were amazing! For not knowing exactly how to go about taking care of their omegas, they did an incredible job!
I loved every minute of this book...if you can't tell. Lol! Patiently impatiently awaiting the next in this series!
