For the past year, I’d been pushing everyone away. It said more about them than it did about me that they hadn’t kicked me to the curb yet. Before I got the news that shocked my entire nervous system, I’d been all about having fun, being the best beta to Jaime’s Alpha there was. Now I couldn’t even remember what that felt like, and I doubted the online server made up of trans gamers I’d stumbled upon would have the answers, but it was the closest I’d had to a lifeline in a long time.
Rox, Viola, and Dixie all had their own issues, their own demons to battle, and reasons for all the rules that came with joining their pack. I had never been one for online or long distance relationships, or for those many rules, but… They wanted me, and I hadn’t allowed myself to feel wanted in too long to turn my back on them.
On the possibilities—one of which, I was aware, meant that I was self-sabotaging once more.

New Pack Codeincludes a T4T4T4T online relationship with (pretend) omegaverse rules and dynamics, gaming, characters with more trauma than the author had initially anticipated, lots of puppy play and, of course, found family galore. Oh, and a probably unconventional HEA.
"New Pack Code" is a T4T4T4T contemporary romance. It’s part of a series but it can be read as a standalone. Actually, this book doesn't have as many cameos as the previous ones. It's a very different romance because the four main characters have a long distance relationship for most of the book. It was very interesting seeing them trying to make things work. And very realistic too, I've been in a long distance relationship myself and I related a lot. I especially connected with Dixie but I loved all four of them equally and for different reasons. I adored Viola's personality, she was full of life and joy. I found Rox very intriguing, she was strong and confident and took care of everyone but had her vulnerable moments too. Cece was very complex and my heart ached for all they went through. It was wonderful to see their character growth. The author did a fantastic job developing all four main characters, making them realistic and lovable. I was rooting for them. Finally, I read a lot of omegaverse books, it's one of my favorite genres, but I've never read a book with omegaverse roleplay. My Goodness this book was fire!! So hot! I loved reading about Rox, Dixie, Viola and Cece.
I got the book as an ARC from the author but the rating and review reflect my own opinion
I personally wasn't sure of the omegaverse "trope" but it was seriously well done and felt like any good kink dynamic which I really liked.
The characters were also pretty likeable Rox, Viola, and Dixie all being in an existing relationship and Cece stumbling upon them online by accident and slowly falling in love. The story and action were also really good So why only 4* ? The ending of the book felt too cut short, it was a happy end, but we didn't see them interacting with each other with all 4 people present and it was mentioned a few times that they would join or interact with the existing kink scene and club that we already know and love from the other books, but it never ends up happening
