Golden Sanctuary Omegaverse #1
Her Stolen Scent
Omegas are loved. Omegas are protected. Omegas are the pride of society. As the Omega daughter of two Betas, Daisy’s very existence has brought her family nothing but prosperity. So, why does Daisy’s family hate the very thing she is? All she has ever wanted is to be herself, but every time she feels like she gets the chance, they rip it away. When Daisy is pulled from school and forced to deny her designation, she clings to every last piece of her Omega self. But even that can’t save her when she is attacked in her own home and her chances of a normal heat are torn away from her. After feeling like she has spent her entire life fighting for the right to exist as an Omega, Daisy finds freedom from her family at the Golden Sanctuary Omega Finishing School. There, her dreams of an Alpha are finally within reach. Somehow, her family finds a way to ruin it, breaking her down to build her sister up. With society collapsing under her feet and pressure increasing for Alphas to mate Betas, how will Daisy cope with the world thinking an Alpha rejected her for her Beta sister? Will this ruin her chances with the Alpha she actually wants? Her facade is breaking, and underneath, she isn’t as perfect as she wants to be.

Very different OMV, and it's a M/F pairing, in case you want OMV without any why choose.
I actually loved that this society was so different from most OMV I've read. I don't think the society is perfect, and it has many flaws, but it gave me a new look at A/B/O dynamics. I'll stick around and read other books that are written in this world. It's got an odd formality to it that's almost archaic at times, clashing with backlash from betas who feel ignored and looked over (and maybe they actually were sometimes) and who also don't understand these formal omega/alpha customs or dynamics. Fascinating to be stuck in this world with these polar opposites clashing.
This is a huge slow burn. They don't even officially meet until around the 35% mark.
The main drawbacks for me were:
1. The story jumped around in time and never delved deeper into most of what happened. It just let us know things (sometimes horrible things) were happening and then moved on. Parts of the story felt like they were missing, but we got some of them later on in the MMC's POV, which doesn't come until the end. It's a little confusing at parts but I can appreciate the choice behind revealing things that way.
2. Another story that borderline infantilizes the FMC. She's very naive because of her experiences growing up, making it easy for her to be manipulated by literally everyone. And then the big, strong alpha just comes in and takes over for her so she never even needs to think. Part of this the way their society treats omegas (damnit if I didn't like that part though), and the other part was supposed to be their own dynamic.
Very much insta love. The OW and OM drama is only from people neither of the MCs are ever interested in. They're both vaguely implied virgins but it's never confirmed. I'm adding the tags anyway.
Loved the ending 25 years later.

FINALLY!!!
This is my first review, but it’s warranted for this masterpiece. The story’s perspective is rare in the ABO genre, as it features an omega who embraces her designation. Most ABO books depict omegas who want to be different by societal standards (people just don’t understand me)or are traumatized (by an insane family or society). It was refreshing, after reading many dark OmegaVerse books, to see an mfc, despite trauma,take pride in being an omega. It is something newer ABO books often lack. I hope more authors adopt this approach. Thank you, author, for expanding the genre and bringing it back to its roots! I look forward to more from you.

I was unprepared
The blurb did not prepare me for how amazing this book would be. I almost didn't read it, and that would have been a shame. It has depth, it has intrigue, it has more than one twist, and it has a full on hea. I really hope I find more books from this author because this one is straight-up awesome and will go into my to be read again pile. It makes me wish I could give it more than 5 stars and makes me want to knock down others. I have rated as a 5 because they shouldn't share a rating.
Daisy does not live in a safe or happy home. She is an omega when omegas are scarce and she loves her designation when it is very clear that her beta parents and sister resent her designation even though they gain status based on her existence and she is abused. She finds a way out and is enrolled in a government funded omega finishing school. She excels there and really blooms. Her parents won't let her go easily, though, and it comes to a very serious head. I hope Anna gets her own book.

This was such an engaging read from a new-to-me author. Kate has created an Omegaverse setting where omegas are on the decline and the lack of dynamics with designations is creating violent and horrific ramifications. Daisy is a victim of her beta parents’ discriminatory biases and suffers greatly at their hands.
There are some deeply impactful moments (check content warnings) and I enjoyed watching Daisy blossom as she found love and acceptance. However, this does read as a debut. There were a lot of machinations happening; but it all felt a bit surface level. The plot at times felled malformed and I craved much more emotional depth that just felt lacking. I do think this will come as Kate’s pen finds more experience and will definitely look forward to reading Anna’s book.

Wow, this book really took me by surprise. I love this world and I really hope we get Anna’s story. I don’t know if this is her first book but I honestly loved it. This omegaverse is different but in a good way. I enjoyed the angst and how positive Daisy stays and how they don’t break her or make her hate her omega. The book, despite everything Daisy goes through, doesn’t feel like a dark book. It feels like hope after a storm. Sad I couldn’t find another book or when the next book will come out. I can’t wait.

Felt like a collection of random scenes, extremely disjointed with time, characters, and plots all passing by with no meaning. Also at the beginning plurals and ‘s were being interchanged randomly whole thing needed an edit

Her Stolen Scent
Was kinda of triggering, but handled with care and insight. Loved the ending, would like to how the younger two go.

Must Read
Well the female main character can make you question her sanity, it's a great story with depth and emotional roller-coaster.
