She's used to confinement. They want to free her.
Sage doesn't know any life other than the one her abusive older brother and his best friend have forced her into. Limited outside time, no control over her hair or clothing, a nest she hates and body she isn’t comfortable with. Until a surprise scent-match shows up on their doorstep and awakens omega desires she didn't know she had.
Brooks, the gentle giant alpha daddy.
Riley, the flirtatious, bratty beta.
And Neveah, the steady, possessive goddess of an alpha.
They want to court her, treasure and protect her, but Sage doesn't see a way out of her brother's clutches. When she agrees to meet in secret, she sets all four of them on a path that feels remarkably close to fate.
But Sage’s brother isn’t willing to let her go without a fight… and her scent-matches may not be enough to keep her safe.
Bonded by Lavender is a standalone queer polyam / why choose small town romance intended for mature readers. It's full of hurt/comfort, bursting with sweet and spicy moments, and features plenty of knotting and swoony alphas. Everyone is with everyone - HEA guaranteed!

Ahh so glad I signed up for the arc of this book 🥹
It was sooo good! It is my first book with a female alpha and I loved reading of this pack. One male alpha, one female alpha, they/him beta and a female omega :)
Our omega starts off in an abusive forced relationship “pack”. It really was sad and I just kept wanting to hug her when she was with the abusive pack. I loved her little adventures after meeting her first scent match and following her meeting them all 🥺
Her true pack rescuing her and loving her helped her heal and become her own person. It took time but they did not rush her.
It was so heartwarming when she finally met friends that became people who wanted to protect her 💜
I highly recommend this omegaverse I loved our characters and the representation in this book! The author killed it!!

For a debut novelist, Aura Frost has already nailed the art of infusing warm fuzzies into her readers. Bonded by Lavender is a very sweet and cozy omegaverse with very little angst, which goes easy on our weary dispositions. Despite a manipulative and toxic past (and a little bit of present) for Sage, the vast majority of her experience throughout this story is heartwarming, accepting, and gratifying. Definitely could’ve used some more justice - preferably more humiliating and life-changing - it’s only what they deserved! The Lavender Pack has a unique blend of personalities and identities that are never questioned or judged, only supported and loved. Overall, the epitome of a comforting read where you’ll laugh and melt and swoon!

Bonded By Lavender was an absolutely fantastic book! It has definitely become one of my favorite Omegaverse reads!
I loved how Sage really came into her own throughout the entire story. The confidence she was able to grow through the book was really gratifying to read. I really enjoyed how we got to see more and more of Sage’s true personality emerge with each chapter.
Vee and Brooks the consent king and queen!
Brooks was so incredibly patient and kind, he was always so intentional with showing not only Sage but Riley and Neveah as well how much he cared and valued them.
Neveah, Vee was the unshakable strength. Her energy and love jumped off the page.
Sweet and bratty Riley! Riley was absolute joy and sunshine. They literally uplifted the entire book. I LOVED Riley’s individual relationship with Vee, Brooks, and Sage. I REALLY LOVED when they were all together, Riley and Sage could ensue the most chaos (usually on Brooks).
I ended up highlighting so much in this book because there were just SO MANY amazing moments and conversations being had!
I truly CANNOT wait for everyone to get their hands on Bonded By Lavender, I honestly think it might be going down as a favorite read of the year (I know it’s only March). Trust me, you don’t want to miss out on this book!

Small Town Omegaverse where Sage is held captive by her older brother and his friend, where she is a full time maid, who is abused and starved, it’s giving omegas should be seen and not heard vibe. One day she meets one of her Scent Matches a called Alpha Brooks who is a gardener/ landscaper. He changes Sages whole world and perspective on their secret first date he takes her to a local lavender farm because that’s her scent. When they arrive the meet their other Scent Match Non Binary Beta babe Riley and their Alpha who is also both their Scent Match Neveah.
Slowly but surely Sages scent matches convince her life would be better and happier if she ran away from her abusers and lived with them at the lavender farm. Once Sage works up the courage, a romantic but also cozy couple of Chapters happen of Sage, and her Pack falling in Love. They completely change Sages Life’s and world views that’s Alphas can be sweet and caring and kind and with help from a Bratty Beta that being intimate can be pleasurable and enjoyable.
Later on her Brother and his best friend / Sages abusers find out about her staying at the Lavender Farm but the community she’s built stand with her until justice prevails.
This was such a cute, sweet and cozy omegaverse Aura Frost had such a beautiful writing style, made the characters come to life with so much depth and personality truely a lovely read highly Recommend.

what a sweet omegaverse read 🥺 if you’re looking for a little bit of hurt and an omega who needs to be rescued by a good pack, then you definitely need to read 𝑩𝒐𝒏𝒅𝒆𝒅 𝒃𝒚 𝑳𝒂𝒗𝒆𝒏𝒅𝒆𝒓.
i loved seeing the courting by Brooks and then Riley & Vee. Sage definitely deserved to be taken care of. but the pack also helped her learn who she was away from her brother and ex. i loved all their different personalities and how it fit different roles in the pack and how they all came together. however you don’t get a lot of backstory from the other main characters like you do, Sage.

this is the first in what looks like to be a new interconnected series centered around a gardening club. the epilogue is in the POV of one of the other omegas in the gardening club, hopefully foreshadowing the next book.

This had me in all the feels! I was giggling and kicking my feet! I love how Aura made this an LGBTQIA book! It feels so inclusive!
Sage is just the cutest sassy bravest omega!! The struggles she went through didn't keep her down! I love how as the story went on she got more comfortable with her pack and the world around her!! Even with her animal sidekicks!!
Brooks the gentle alpha! He always making sure everyone is taken care of in and out of the bed room 😉 I need a Brooks in my life lol 😆
Riley is baby! I love them so much!! He is so sassy and a brat! I don't know how they can sit down most days 😜 Riley does make sure they have Sages back no matter what!
Vee is QUEEN!! I just want to bow down and kiss her feet! The way she will protect her pack and some how get Brooks on his knees 😉 is great! She is definitely the more dominant alpha in this pack!
You guys should definitely read about Pack Lavender 🥰

Wow Just WOW!! I must start off saying this book was so well written that I could imagine everything as it played out like a romance movie. We have our 4 main characters Sage our broken but strong omega, Brooks our caring protective teddy bear aka Alpha daddy, Nevaeh our sexy dominant straight forward Alpha ( her name spells heaven backwards which was really cute because that's exactly what she was to her pack a piece of Heaven) & Lastly our spunky fiesty bratty Beta Riley. The author very generously gives us multiple povs from each character that helps us navigate the story and understand everyone better. We go through the emotions of seeing Sage dealing with some abusive people in her life while still trying to be the best version of on an omega that was placed upon on her. Fortunately she runs across Brooks,Riley, and Sage who shows her that she is more than the box that she was shoved and locked in. And that she deserves everything and more I was convinced that if they could they would gladly fly to space and pick nothing but the brightest stars for her. It's a rollercoaster of emotions and discoveries not just with Sage but with Brooks,Riley, and Nevaeh. Each character discovers and realizes things about themselves that help them grow to become better people and mates. I believe self love and courage was a big highlight of this story. Because while it's wonderful to love others it's amazing to have self love as well. Since each character had their own insecurities it was lovely to see them work through it as well. Also the yearning this book has OMGGGGGGGGGG I was swooning. It got to the point where I couldn't put the book down I was an entire hour late to work because I just had to finish the ending why yes my mind would not let me rest. That's how good the story was! If I could choose my favorite thing out the whole story it would be the build up between Riley and Brooks the tension,the yearning,the suspense ahhhhhh I LOVE IT! They were honestly my favorite characters. The author did a fantastic job with creating a beta character. Most omegaverse have Betas pretty much playing background characters who are only there to serve the omega. So to see Riley recieve so much love,protection,admiration just overall being seen,cared for and mainly validated made me super happy. Overall the storytelling was great, characters were amazing and the spicy was SPICING. This was such a great read that I definitely will be recommending to others.If I could give it a 100 stars I would.While I did received an advanced copy of this book all thoughts are my own. I'm leaving this review on my own accord.

This was such an unexpected, wonderful read! Aura Frost is a new author for me, and Bonded by Lavender being her debut novel, I'm so happy I got in on the ARC drop.
This is the sweetest little OV book I've read in a while. It was so pure and absolutely brimming with love. I absolutely adored how the main focus of the story was the pack and the characters coming together and figuring out how they wanted to be. Whilst still having the underlying plot of danger from Sage, our Omegas, previous life.
I was extremely excited to start this one, as it was my first OV with a female Alpha- as an MC (and not for lack of trying!!). I love the different power dynamics of the Alphas. Whilst Brooks seemed to be a dominant, strong alpha, he was a total sweetheart, gentle giant who just wants to take care of everyone he loves! And Neveah, being the only other Alpha in the pack, who could've been misconstrued as less than the male Alpha of the book, was a total power house, badass, who was dominant but in a way that kept everyone safe and loved. It was gorgeous to see.
I adored the pack dynamics and how they worked so well as a group but also had their individual relationships with one another. Everyone had a strong role within the pack, all the characters having a place, they were all loved for who they were, and no one was left out.
Sage really resonated with me as not only a character but her story, j cried at least 3 times before we even got 100 pages in**, she was so brave, the themes were handled with such care that I felt safe with the book, Aura did such a good job and showing us without forcing it or making it come across as not a big deal. It did really help that the pack came to her rescue and protected and cared for her so strongly that it settled something within me as a survivor.
(So thank you so much, Aura 🖤)
but not only that, after reading A LOT of scent match Omegaverse, the story can be propelled into warp speed when characters instincts and biology is involved, it was so beautiful to see it written with care, showing the pack taking it at Sage's speed, letting her feel comfortable and safe, making sure she trusted each of them before any of the (quite frankly, amazing) spice to start.
all in all, Bonded by Lavender was an absolute joy to read, sweet, spicy, with a touch of fast and slow burn, showing that everyone can be loved within a Pack but not feeling forced!
It made me laugh, cry, and literally swoon, and i could not put it down!

🪻Bond by Lavender 🪻
Bonded by Lavender by Aura Frost is an omegaverse romance set in a small-town in Michigan that readers are sure to fall in love with. If you are unfamiliar with what an omegaverse romance is, well strap in fellow smut readers and ready yourself for a ride you won’t ever want to get off. Ms. Author does a fantastic job of dropping trigger warnings when needed, and explaining the awesomeness that is omegaverse, so no worries if you're feeling a little lost.
Our story starts off with Sage, our lovely but tragic Omega. Held captive by her so-called brother and his best friend, abused and manipulated into thinking that an Omega’s place is under the thump of any Alpha. Sage’s life is one of isolation, fear, and hunger. That is until she meets Brooks, her true scent match. Brooks opens a world of possibilities to her, the possibilities of a true pack. Through Brooks, a gentle giant Alpha of a man, Sage meets two other scent matches, quirky and chaotic Beta Riley and safety and security Nevaeh (Vee), together they rescue Sage from her captures and help her build the life she has always wanted. Life however isn’t always sunshines and rainbows, Sage and her pack must fight to keep their new happiness when Sage’s brother and friend come searching for her. Along their journey Pack Lavender bonds slowly grow, they experience new things together, make memories and grow together as both individuals and pack.
Eeeeep! What a book! I love these characters, Alpha Daddy Brooks and our little Sour Patch Riley, and let's not forget our Concent Queen Vee. Each member of the Pack played such a key role, each giving something to Sage that she desperately needed. But not only Sage, Brooks, Riley and Vee also have such a profound relationship with one another, each leaning into the other for guidance and warmth. Ms. Author’s writing is a mix of light humor and guiding light for her characters, not to mention just the right amount of spice that adds to the story instead of feeling like filler. Reading as Sage comes into her own personality, her own likes and dislikes, in a safe space where she is loved and cared for was such a joy. I hope to see more from this wonderful world soon!

Dearest Unhinged Readers,
It has come to this bookstagrammer’s attention that I have been silent on my latest obsession: Omegaverese books. But fear not, my feral, smut-loving readers, for I have a gift for you as penance for my oversight.
Bonded by Lavender (Omega Gardening Club Book 1) by Aura Frost needs to be your next read. (Releasing March 19th!)I did receive this book as an ARC but all thoughts and opinions are my own.
In a world filled with chaos, heartbreak, and awful people, leaving this bookstagrammer feeling….bleak lately, this book was like balm directly to the soul.
Whilst we cannot ignore the tragedies occurring in the world, we still need stories of hope to buoy us through. A gentle warning that this book contains some of the horrors of humanity’s darker side, and our dear Omega Sage starts off with a not-so-great pack - an abusive brother and his best friend. But please, do not let that turn you away, for the story couldn't be told without this part. Her pack shows up one by one, and they treasure her, crave her, and they truly love her. And she learns that it's okay to want them back, along with many other things. It helps that her two Alphas are consent royalty and bring along with them a sassy Sour Patch beta.
I loved Alpha Daddy Brook’s secure and gentle way of loving Sage. Alpha Vee’s secure yet quiet and commanding way of loving, mixed with Beta Riley’s chaotic but all-consuming love of life and Sage. It was perfect. Dearest reader, I read the book in 2 sittings (I had to drive in between and truly wished there was an audiobook or that I would have had a chauffeur to convey me around whilst I stayed immersed in this world). Frost’s writing is both humorous and heart-warming. Sage’s story is one of resilience and hope. Watching her blossom into the Omega, to the woman, she not only could but wanted to be was a delight.
I was dismayed when it was over, but I have hope for the future of this series. I know that Frost has many more stories to tell in this town, and I, for one, cannot wait to read them. Especially with the possible next main character hinted at towards the end - but alas, to find out who, you too must devour this book.

“Bonded By Lavender” is the debut work by the lovely Aura Frost! I was given an ARC for this book in return for an honest review and I am over-the-moon ecstatic that I was accepted! It has been such a fun time being part of Aura’s street team.
I am still quite new to the Omega Verse, but from what I have read so far I adore. I love the diversity of each pack, and that does include “Bonded by Lavender”. It is the first in a new series and right now I am beyond thrilled to read about our next omega’s. We do meet them at the Omega Gardening Club. Each of them are so lovely, and I know once we get to know them better they will be just as fun as our main characters in this installment.
If you enjoy a cozy romance with beautifully diverse characters and lots of spice—this is for you! This book has my first female alpha, Vee, and she is such a bad@$$ queen! Brooks, our other alpha is just a sweet cinnamon roll of a man. Riley, our bratty and silly non-binary beta is the glue for this pack. He really helps Sage (our omega) flourish and come out of her shell. Each member of the Lavender Pack has my whole heart!
Sage is our darling and soon to be bratty omega who is not only rescued by her new pack but by her scent matches—all of them are each other’s match—the dream really! Our characters are truly the sweetest people who would do anything to help, support and protect one another; including spiriting an omega out of her abusive home. Each of our beloved pack members are so well written and well rounded that you cannot help but fall in love with them.
Reading Sage overcome her abuse and trauma was so heartwarming and liberating. Her pack really work with her to remind her that their love and support has no strings attached. I cried happy tears when she finally found the courage to cut her hair!
I do want to remind everyone to read the trigger warnings. Aura does a really wonderful job with showing Sage’s life before her pack. It’s disheartening but I think with how delicately it’s presented it is easier to handle. For me, it was a good way to showcase where Sage came from, to her finding her place amongst a pack that truly loves, adores, and respects her. Plus, her abusers face justice for their actions. A nice addition to the HEA.
Thank you to Aura Frost for this incredible opportunity to join your street team and for allowing me to devour your book before publication. It has been such a great time and I hope I can be a part of the next book’s team!

*** ARC REVIEW ***
Sage and her pack are absolutely adorable. I really love how well they all fit together, and match each others needs without really realizing it at first. Brooks is there providing quite strength, and emotional support. Riley brings in joy, humor, and an energy that is uplifting and helps boost the confidence of those around him. While Vee’s calming energy and steady presence let everyone know that she’ll always be there for them for what ever it may be that they need.
Vee, Riley and Brooks saving Sage from the house where she was living with her brother and his friend, who abused their designation and treated Sage horribly, bringing her into a space and providing her with all of the little pieces of affection and domesticity that she was missing from her life. Providing her with a space to grow into her own person, to learn what it really means to be an omega that is cherished by the people who care about her. They all allowed Sage to become the person she was meant to be.
I love Pack Centered Omegaverse stories where beta partners are included, loved and doted on just as much as the omega partners. I love seeing one after another, each pack member remind the beta just how special they are to their pack and how much they love them. I also really loved just how patient each pack member was with each other; everyone had their own reasons to be nervous, to be worried about their worthiness and usefulness for the pack, and getting to see the pack ease the fears of their members as they rose naturally with their goring bonds, was really heartwarming.
This was something really wonderful and I am so excited to see what is next for the Omegas of the gardening club

ARC Review
Sage is a mistreated omega. Living a confined life has distorted the truths of reality. That is until an alpha landscaper named Brooks strolled through her neighborhood. Offering his services to her brother (which we hate), he stumbles upon Sage.
Brooks is the definition of a cinnamon roll male. Protective yet gentle. Quiet and reserved. He is absolutely wrapped around Sage's finger and does not know how to say no to her or Riley.
Riley(they/he) is the beta of the pack. He is sunshine personified. Always the one to make you laugh and smile. Also the one to be a brat and push your buttons. But Riley does not mind a good spanking or two.
Naveah is the dominant pack alpha. Loves to love but knows when to hand out delicious punishments. She is extremely protective of those she loves and will always stand up for her pack. At her lavender farm is where these individuals met to become a pack.
All three love to spoil Sage and crave to cherish her. They are desperate to show her how omegas are supposed to be treated. They are determined to break down her previous inaccurate definitions of what it means to be an omega. This is not without its hurdles of course. When ties to her previous life come poking around the farm, trouble stirs. But where there is love and a small town of supportive people, this pack is unstoppable. The HEA is everything Sage and her pack deserved! Well-earned and well loved. Can't wait to read about the rest of the Omega Gardening Club!

⤷ If you are looking for a cute and sweet omegaverse that will make you laugh and swoon for beautifully unique characters with diverse LGBTQ+ representations, this is a great book to read.
⤷ I love the dynamic between Neveah and Brooks, how they support and care for each other and the pack. I appreciated how the relationship dynamics were always rooted in trust and communication, and helped them each grow as individuals. I fell in love with each of the characters and adored how the author made each of them unique and brought them to life. I am definitely a sucker for a gruff and gentle giant MMC, a female alpha, and a bubbly and energetic beta!
⤷For her first omegaverse book, the author did an incredible job, and I look forward to seeing what she writes next!

“This incredible group of people who like me for me. Not what I can do, or what I’m supposed to do, or my designation. They’ve accepted every quirk and struggle, and through their support, I’ve learned more about myself than I even knew there was to know.”
This was phenomenal! The emotional build and relationship development was absolutely perfect. I loved every minute of feeling that this book drew me through! I was hooked from the very start! The first night I could not put it down for fear of what was going to happen to the FMC! After that it was absolutely so wonderful to read through the healing journey she took while building healthy and adoring relationships with the members of her pack.
What’s Inside
❤️ Omegaverse
❤️ Polyamory
❤️ Scent Matches
❤️ Found Family
❤️ Healing after trauma
❤️ A very bratty beta
❤️ Two Swoon-worthy alphas
❤️ A rescued omega
❤️ The sweetest emotional payoff
I absolutely loved this read and CANNOT WAIT for more of the garden club friends to find their happily ever afters! This is definitely a strong contender for my favorite book of the month!

This was my first Aura Frost book, but it won’t be my last! I loved everything about this book. (Except Josh and the brother, ew!)
This story actually shows you what an abused omega can go through. Don’t let that scare you off. This IS a cozy book, with real feelings. Sometimes what the omega goes through is brushed off. Not here. This pack allows her to be herself, “warts and all.”
There is wonderful representation of various sexualities and kinks, with the demi rep being especially good. (LOVE Brooks!)
Riley is a fantastic character, with such loving energy.
The romance was done so well. Everyone cares for everyone, no one is left handling every thing.
And, while you get your spicy scenes, it is a slower burn. More than halfway before anything happens that isn’t between the pre-established pair. No insta-lusting here!
The Omega Gardening Club were all so cute, and obviously setting up the series. The tease at the end for Book 2 was great.
The best part of this book was how the conflict was actually handled. It wasn’t swept under the rug, it wasn’t handled in off-page scenes. There are multiple chapters, actual resolution. I loved it so much.

Bonded By Lavender was an absolutely fantastic book! It has definitely become one of my favorite Omegaverse reads!
I loved how Sage really came into her own throughout the entire story. The confidence she was able to grow through the book was really gratifying to read. I really enjoyed how we got to see more and more of Sage’s true personality emerge with each chapter.
Vee and Brooks the consent king and queen!
Brooks was so incredibly patient and kind, he was always so intentional with showing not only Sage but Riley and Neveah as well how much he cared and valued them.
Neveah, Vee was the unshakable strength. Her energy and love jumped off the page.
Sweet and bratty Riley! Riley was absolute joy and sunshine. They literally uplifted the entire book. I LOVED Riley’s individual relationship with Vee, Brooks, and Sage. I REALLY LOVED when they were all together, Riley and Sage could ensue the most chaos (usually on Brooks).
I ended up highlighting so much in this book because there were just SO MANY amazing moments and conversations being had!
I truly CANNOT wait for everyone to get their hands on Bonded By Lavender, I honestly think it might be going down as a favorite read of the year (I know it’s only March). Trust me, you don’t want to miss out on this book!

Bonded by Lavender - Aura Frost
4.25/5✨🌟
* SPOILERS *
When I saw that this was the author’s first book, I just knew I had to grab it. I’m so glad that I did because it was so good.
I love a good story when the main MC rescues the other character, but to mix it in with a whole pack reacuing the omega, I was swooning.
Aura did a really good job with the whole queer representation as well.
I was completely smitten just by how Vee, Brooks, and Riley continued throughout the book took completely care of Sage. Vee and Brooke are alphas, Riley is just the sweetest beta ever and sweet Sage is learning to overcome her past and truly see what a pack truly can be like.
The found family is so good. When the whole town stands by Sage and her pack when things get interesting at a point, I was like “this is one of the best found family’s I’ve ever read before” and I was here for every sweet moment. Also, the cute animals were too cute because they had their own personalities.
I really cannot wait for the next book in this series because that epilogue, yes please!
I received a copy of this book and this is my honest review.

｡˚. 🐑I was kindly sent an ARC Copy 🐑｡˚.
I couldn’t put this one down! I was reading it any chance I got, it had me so invested and I really enjoyed the outcome at the end! The beginning was a little nerve wracking for me and I was a little hesitant but once I got over that and Sage was in her new safe space I really enjoyed the read. Seeing Sage learn that what she’d been previously made to believe was in fact not reality and how she took that and became such a strong omega was beautiful and her lil babies Daisy and Bramble I’m kinda jealous she got to see Brooks carry them cause now I want to see that too! Riley oh sweet darling Riley, Brooks was so good for them and I absolutely adored seeing this sweet beta realise how important they are to the pack. I can’t forget the smoking hot Vee, she was amazing for Sage and her and Riley together just makes me swoon.
I’m very glad Sage’s brother and his jerk of a friend got what was coming for them! It had me on the edge of my seat.
Overall I really enjoyed this read, and I am very much looking forward to the next one!

I can’t forget the smoking hot Vee, she was amazing for Sage and her and Riley together just makes me swoon.
I’m very glad Sage’s brother and his jerk of a friend got what was coming for them! It had me on the edge of my seat.
Overall I really enjoyed this read, and I am very much looking forward to the next one!

Omegaverse is obviously a favorite of mine. But this one? This one tAKES THE CAKE so far this year!
Bonded by Lavender started off sad and a little depressing, so please read your trigger warnings. But it was emotional in the best way; it benefited the book perfectly and added to the character development that happened slowly throughout the story!
Off the bat, I fell in love with Sage. You can’t help but feel empathetic and protective of her. As soon as you start to meet the rest of the pack, you slowly start to fall in love with every new character you meet. Brooks was an immediate YES. I love the burly, yet soft bear type alphas. Always so pleasant yet sweet. I waited for a rougher side from him and it never came. He was precious and I loved it.
And Vee? Yep. This was my first experience with a female alpha as a main character and the head of the pack and I LOVED it.
But my favorite character? Oh my gosh RILEYYYYY. Quirky, bratty, untamed (until a good spanking). I love them. They were the perfect glue to an alphax2 and omega sandwich.
I feel like I’d LOVE a short or novella of Vee and Ri’s story, just because I’ve never read anything like their dynamic and I LOVED IT SO MUCH!
Honestly a true 5 ⭐️ and a gem! 3-3.5 🌶️!
Thank you so much to Aura and team for reaching out to me for this ARC opportunity! I cannot wait for the rest!

Omgggg this was freaking AMAZING?!?! Howwww is this the author’s first OV??? I am obsessed with this book and so excited to read more of this world!
Sage my babyyyy! This sweet omega goes through HELL. Her journey to healing and learning to love is so beautiful. It starts off heavy and we slowly see hope shine through as she meets her scent matches and Pack Lavender is established.
Riley is such a fun character! They are bubbly and such a ray of sunshine in a pack of a healing Omega and two serious, protective Alphas.
“Alpha Daddy”
If I could have given this a 6th star simply for all the K-Pop Demon Hunters references, I would have.
TROPES:
FNbFM
Omegaverse
Healing after escaping @bu$e
Found Family
Consent King and Queen
I love that we get to meet the omega gardening club and we get a peek into Siobhan’s head in the epilogue so I cannot WAIT to read more of this series and see where the world takes us!

This is a cozy omegaverse with a dark past. Luckily we only get a peak into what our omega has had to endure. Sage has had a very rough road before she finally gets her happily ever after.
I love that big teddy bear Brooks is the first one introduced to her. He does everything right and I loved every moment of it. Riley and Vee were amazing additions and just what Sage needed in terms of balance. This pack has the patience of saints. They let Sage grow naturally on her own time just with bumpers to ensure she stayed on the right path.
Don't you worry about heat. O man that heat was CHAPTERS long but none of it was redundant. All of it added to the story and the dynamic. Having such a diverse pack, it can be difficult to find the balance for everyone. Aura definitely succeeded in this. I will say though rookie mistake on Vee's part for the heat 😉
I can already see where this series is going and I can't wait for the next book!

ARC Review:
This was a cute, wholesome story. The way I was so angry at Sage’s living conditions, but then Brooks shows up unexpectedly at her doorstep. Brooks is the epitome of patience. The way he showed her how Alphas are supposed to behave allowed Sage to slowly blossom. I really liked that he made Sage be more verbal with her needs.
Then on their little date, they stumble upon the most amazing Beta, with sunshine energy. I love Riley’s bratty energy; they know how to make everyone comfortable and happy.
And of course, we cannot forget their Alpha Neveah, who is an embodiment of confidence.
They truly created an environment where Sage could express herself and make mistakes without fear or repressing her true self. When the makeover scene happened, my heart bloomed. It truly pushed me to have a makeover myself, who was still hesitating because, you know what life is short and we should embrace it with our loved ones.
Chapters 62 and 63, chef’s kiss. I don’t want to spoil for anyone, but let’s just say I was cheering.

I enjoyed meeting this pack! I liked that they had different dynamics than you generally find in Omegaverse books and I'm always a sucker for books that build packs!
I loved the spunky beta and the protectiveness of the Alphas. I really appreciated how Sage was allowed to slowly acclimate to the "outside world" they didn't push it and just let her be. Overall it was a good read and I would recommend it for someone looking for an Omegaverse.
The pacing was a little slow for my taste and I felt like maybe we could have used a little more details about outside relationships. Without giving spoilers, at one point they needed community assistance and all of a sudden they had all these friends and neighbors but like...where did they come from?! they are all willing to help but we haven't met anyone before? I just wish we would have had that sense of community throughout the book...
I read this book as an ARC and this is my honest opinion.

Ok this was good overall . I cried, I laughed, I …anxietied? It’s cozy and sweet but also spicy. I really enjoyed the characters and I think the secondary characters would be great in a second book. Aura’s writing is very good and she created a lovely book.
My only ick will probably get me attacked by a specific crowd but I’m going to talk about it anyways. The “most dominant alpha”, as she’s literally called in the book, is a Black Woman. The only black person/ person of colour in the book. Don’t get me wrong I love her. She’s a wonderful character, but the fact that she’s the big alpha of all yt presenting people (even a freaking yt alpha man) just… rubs me the wrong way. The dynamic between her and everyone else is irksome, especially after the spice starts. I would recommend it with a caveat.
I appreciate being able to read this arc and these opinions are genuinely and honestly my own.

You know when you finish reading a book and it was so good you actually just didn’t want it to end? Yeah, that is how I felt about this book. Granted it was a beautiful ending and I can’t wait for the next book, I’m still sad it’s over! This was the perfect book to escape into and these characters have me in a chokehold.
Sage (abused omega who finds comfort in her pack) is the center. Brooks (a large softy who is down bad at first scent!!) is the strength. Vee (a gorgeous alpha female) is the defender. And last, but not least, is Riley (the cutest and sweetest but also bratty beta) is the glue that holds everyone together. This pack has my heart, as do the baby sheep. 🥰😍
The queer representation and queer normative world that Aura Frost has created in this omgeaverse is amazing and, like I said, I cannot wait for the next book.
This book will take you through all the feels and its spicy!

This was an great story. SO many different events happened. The heart break for the omega and the strength her pack showed was amazing. I loved how Sage was able to be vulnerable and strong at the same time and had amazing help from Riley, Vee and Brooks. Riley was so fun to read, they were fun and caring. Brooks was an amazing alpha who wasn't your stereotypical alpha- strong but kind. And Vee the sensual alpha who is so supportive and kind will do anything for her pack.
I just loved the support and kindness that was shown throughout the story, from her pack, the omegas in the gardening club and the town itself it was so fun. I also love little animal sidekicks, 100% adds to the story. This book had lots of fun, drama, and spice! I cannot wait for the other stories in the series!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5

Oh. my. Goddess.
I can't believe I ever had reservations when it came to this wonderful ARC. I just needed the right moment to dive into it, as usual. Even if it seems daunting at first - what with our sweet FMC in a precarious and scary situation - her fate quickly makes us sigh in relief. Her chance encounter with her alphas and beta put me at ease. The path to growth and healing for her is treated with the utmost respect and her story runs smoothly, making magic happen with how slow but steadily this pack brings her out of the imposed shell she lives in. The spice was surprisingly hot but even more so because, hello, everyone loves everyone and respects gender, identities and orientation? I mean, that's 🔥 and we all know it. Every character has its own arc and I find myself completely satisfied with the low angst ending! can't wait to read more from this author!
