Intertwined

by Ember Falls

Henry Grant

I've been in love with my twin for years. He's my angel. The sun that I orbit around. And even though I know it's wrong to be pining after him, my heart hasn't gotten the memo. When he shows up at my door one evening in pain, wanting me, needing me—I'm helpless to resist him. When he asks me to help him through his heat, the answer is immediately yes. I'll do anything to have him—even if this one moment is all I'll ever have with Harper. It'll be worth every ache I feel for him when he moves on and I watch him have the life I want for us, with someone else.

Harper Grant

When my ex-boyfriend shows his true colors, I know there's no one else in the world that I want more than my twin. He's my protector. My best friend. My big brother—even if it's only by three minutes. Henry always gives me what I need without even asking. When we get snowed in and I go into an unexpected heat, I know he will be there for me unconditionally. What I don't know is if our relationship will survive the fallout once the heat fog lifts. I can only hope that it will. Not having Henry in my life isn't a reality I want to live in.

Intertwined is a first person dual-POV taboo MM omegaverse romance. It's a sweet love story between two brothers destined to be together even though society tells them it's wrong. Expect high heat, a bossy omega and an alpha brother who would do anything for their twin.

Harpers ex crossed sexual lines with him (forced him to deep throat, called his cock small) things that he now begs Henry not to do but Henry is a consent king and reassures him "your no means no"
Panic attack
Henry punches Harper's ex in the face
Henry and Harper are the result of incest - they also discuss having kids of their own - but this is fiction and Omegaverse so I guess they have no issues 🤷‍♀️

Harper y Henry... ¿qué decir sobre estos personajes tan buenos? Sinceramente, no se me ocurren más palabras para describirlos: fueron increíbles y súper amenos.

Me gustó muchísimo leer sobre ellos y conocer a fondo su historia. Generalmente leo muchos libros taboo o que son considerados "prohibidos" por la mayoría, así que leer esta historia sobre gemelos que se dan cuenta de que siempre estuvieron enamorados, y que encima todo esté ambientado en un mundo de alfas y omegas... definitivamente me compró desde el primer momento!

Me encantó cómo se dio el desenlace. No sabía qué pensar respecto a la situación de Harper y su expareja ni cómo iba a terminar eso, pero me gustó mucho cómo se resolvió todo al final 🤭.

Definitivamente muero por leer la historia de Mac y Dean! 👀👀🔥 No puedo esperar!

Harper and Henry... what can I even say about such amazing characters? Honestly, the only words that come to mind are incredible and absolute joys to read.

I loved getting to know them and diving deep into their story. I usually read a lot of taboo books, the kind that many consider "forbidden", so a story about twins realizing they’ve always been in love, set in an Omegaverse world with Alphas and Omegas? It was an instant sell for me!

I really liked how their ending played out. I wasn't sure what to think about Harper and her ex's situation or how it would wrap up, but I loved how everything was resolved in the end🤭.

I am absolutely dying to read about Mac and Dean! 👀👀🔥 I cannot wait for their story!

Oh, I loved it. I absolutely LOVED it.

I know this is taboo and NOT for everyone, but I absolutely loved every second of this book.

Even if it is a novella I feel like we had everything we needed written between these pages. It was sweet, it was swoon worthy, it made me mad, it made me chuckle at Harper's bratty self, it was hot as sin... yeah.

I loved how the author did not shy away from the hard topic of abusive relationships, how Harper's experience was valid and how in the end he got the help he needed and got out of that toxic situation.

I love how what happened between Harper and Henry was not something lust induced, but they yearned for each other for a while ( one knowingly, one unknowingly ). When they finally got together it felt so natural, so beautiful and sweet. It made me emotional to see how much Henry loves Harper.

Another thing that I loved was how they weren't your typical alpha and omega, and how open they were to explore and make sure the other one's needs are met. The sex positivity in this book was a nice touch.

Their loved ones accepting them was also another thing I highly appreciated. I love when I can read a book and just enjoy it without unnecessary drama. This was exactly that. Yay me.

I am happy that we got a glimpse of the next story we will get in this world and I am ready. Bring me that alpha × alpha action. Yuhuuu.

I think the only thing I didn't like was that it ended to soon. I was not ready to let them go.

I need more of Henry and Harper... much more. Please & thanks.

ARC REVIEW


This is my first time reading this author and I did not expect to be this hooked. This novella (omegaverse, twins, alpha/omega) was honestly addictive from start to finish. I’m still thinking about it.

Harper completely stole my attention. He’s soft, gentle, and sees the world in a very pure way. He trusts easily, loves deeply, and always tries to see the good in people until he’s proven wrong. And when things go bad for him, it hurts because he never deserved it. Henry being there for him made everything better. The way he protected him, comforted him, and gave him love felt so natural. Harper giving that same love back made their bond even stronger.

Henry is intense in the best way. On the surface he feels almost perfect, but he has insecurities, emotions, and moments where he struggles too, which made him feel real. But when it comes to Harper, he is completely gone for him. No hesitation. No holding back. Harper is everything to him, and it shows in every word and action.

And their chemistry burns. The emotional connection between them is deep, but the physical side is just as strong it’s intense, passionate, and full of need, but still tied to how deeply they trust and love each other. It feels like two people who completely belong to each other finally giving in.

Overall, this was way better than I expected. Emotional, intense, and honestly a little addictive.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Rating: 4⭐️
Spice: 3.5 🌶

Vibes:
🧡 Twins
🔥 Alpha x Omega
🧡 Snowed In
🔥 Unexpected Heat
🧡 Possessive Alpha
🔥 Bossy Omega

This is a taboo omegaverse romance featuring a sweet, possessive alpha and a bratty, bossy omega and it delivers exactly what you’d expect from that combo.

Harper finds himself going into heat at the worst possible moment, right after discovering his boyfriend has been cheating on him. With nowhere else to turn, he goes to the one person he’s always relied on: his twin brother, Henry.

Henry has been in love with Harper for years but has always kept his distance, not wanting to risk their relationship. But when Harper shows up needing him, that line quickly disappears.

Once things shift between them, the chemistry is immediate and intense.

What I really loved about this story is how it balances sweetness with heat. Beneath all the tension and spice is a genuinely emotional connection built on years of friendship, trust, and longing.

Henry’s devotion and Harper’s bold, bossy energy make for a dynamic that feels both fun and heartfelt.

Overall, this is a quick, steamy read with a strong emotional core, perfect if you enjoy taboo reads with soft, heartfelt moments.

ARC Review (and thank you so much for the Arc!).
This was my first truly taboo book ever, and I was excited to see how their relationship would be shown especially since they are twins. And to top it off this is an omegaverse, with an Alpha and Omega paring.
Henry and Harper are close of course, Henry has been in love with Harper for ages, but he thinks he can’t act on it. Harper is heartbroken, feeling alone and then boom his heat comes early and they are stuck in a snow storm so no supplies can be brought in to help Harper out. Dream come true for Henry!!
I adored both of these men. Henry is so caring, he loves his brother so much and wants to be with his other half of his soul so badly, it nearly broke my heart for him. And Harper, such a sweet soul, all he wants is to be loved for who he is, and he already is by Henry and he just needs to give in to that. The writing was amazing, the love story was so sweet and the characters are so lovable. Would love some about some side characters too!

Now, I don't often read taboo romances, but occasionally it's an itch I have to scratch. Intertwined did just that. It's a taboo romance between twins and on top of that, an omegaverse book. AND it's the author's debut!

I really enjoyed this one. Very spicy, with some great writing, loveable characters, and a sweet romance. It's on the shorter side, more of a novella, so some things did feel rushed. I'd have loved more build-up in the beginning. Get to know the characters more, their lives, the people around them, their bonds with each other,... And things went rather smoothly in the end, especially given that it's a taboo romance. So yeah, it could've all been expanded on and delved into deeper. But overall, it's a really sweet & spicy romance between two twins and their bond did shine through.

I'm looking forward to seeing what the author will bring us in the future.

✨ARC Review✨

⭐️ 4.25/5
🌶️ 4/5

Main characters: Harper & Henry
Side characters: Dean, Mac
Page count: 147

First person, dual POV. Taboo, Omegaverse.

This was a really sweet story, yes, about two brothers (twins) accepting their much more than brotherly feelings for each other. Henry has always known these feelings existed, Harper knew but on a much more subconscious level. They end up in a situation where they are confronted by the possibility of something more between them and have to make a decision. It goes from there. Very steamy but so sensual and loving. They have a beautiful, open and communicative dynamic. Henry is absolutely devoted to Harper which is so sweet. I haven’t read many omegaverse books so I found aspects of this story to be very educational about the genre. The alpha/omega dynamic is very interesting, especially between twins, and I do love a good knotting!

ALPHA READER. Thank you for the honor, dear Ember! 💕

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ / 5
🔥🔥🔥🔥��� / 5

Couple: Henry and Harper.

It's hard to talk about this book because I love every single thing about it. Does that make sense? LOL

As I said above, I alpha-read this book. Had the immense pleasure of reading each chapter as Ember wrote them. Then I read the beta version as well. And then the ARC version. Obsessed much? Nah, not at all LOL

Since the very first time I read it, I was already in love. Harper and Henry are, in my humble opinion, impossible not to be liked. They just have this way of crawling under your skin and making a home in your heart. It was so much fun to see the story expand and turn into the beautiful final version that it is. Those guys had a lot to say, I'll tell you haha

They are beautiful individuals. Together, however, there's just a special flavour to them. And arent' those the best couples? Their unconditional love for each other surpassed anything material, they're truly soulmates. They were literally made together and to each other. There's no Henry without Harper and vice-versa.

Harper, sweet Harper, he is so adorable. Sees the world in a beautiful light that may make him seem naive at times. But he's just pure. He sees the best in people, until they prove him wrong. That made him go through something he didn't deserve. But Henry was right there to catch him, to give him all the love and adoration he did deserve. And in return, he did the same. Loved and accepted Henry unconditionally and infinitely.

Henry is just the dreamest man to ever exist. He is basically perfect. But not in an annoying way. He can be insecure and feisty, but he's just as pure-hearted as his twin. And he loves Harper so much. Like, there are no words to express how Harper is his everything. There is absolutely nothing he wouldn't do for his twin and love of his life.

Yes, they make me sappy, sue me 🙈

And God they are HOT! You see them with those pure hearts I talked about... then they get onto bed and into each other and THOSE MOUTHS RUN WILD! Such beautiful dirty talking OMG 🔥🔥The smut is enticing and sweet at the same time. It's full of love and passion. Those guys WANT each other. Deeply. And they won't hide it no more. And the kind of non-binary secondary-gender vibes from Henry was one of my favorite things.

The side characters were also amazing. Their incredible parents. Dean and Mac (ugh they're perfect too). Just... that whole story is just perfect for me. I usually don't judge people's taste in literature, because not every book is for everyone, but I just cannot imagine someone disliking this story LOL

Needless to say, I highly recommend it. And it's not just because I alpha-read it. Yes, I have an emotional bond to it. Yes, Henry and Harper are my godchildren. But I would be saying the very same if this had been just a random book for me.

If you like taboo and omegaverse, I highly doubt you won't be at least very entertained by this one ❤️

I’m very new to omega verse and what I have read has been more than I could of imagined! I love this novella! Henry and Harper are the sweetest. I love how Henry is so protective! I mean obviously he is 😮‍💨🖤 lol. And how sassy the omega Harper is! I hate what Harper went through with his ex boyfriend Simon! He’s too sweet! But Henry def makes it all better. They are perfect! I can’t wait to read more. Thank you for the ARC

This was an absolutely filthy short read. There is something about twins that just brings me joy and adding in omegaverse just made this pairing even better. I loved their relationship and how close they are. I really loved the acceptance as well. It made this so much a joy to read. Also I love Mac and Dean. I hope to read their book.

ARC review

For a debut novel this is really well written! I loved the balance between being sweet and spicy, the only thing that caught me off guard was the alpha bottoming for the omega a fair few times which isn't always my cup of tea but it did a good job with it. All in all I do reccomend this book!

[Bryoni Jayde]

Alpha read. I will rate and review after release when I read the published book

This was so good. The way the author wrote the MMC’s emotions made you feel them. This was my first book with this relationship coupling, but it won’t be my last. Holy cow this was hot.
