Small Town Rugged Alphas
The Grumpy Alpha’s Bratty Omega
I ran from my father’s empire with a prototype sports car and no plan.
Three days later, the car died outside Calverton, and I ended up in the garage of the grumpiest alpha mechanic alive.
Theo Ridge is rough hands, sharp eyes, and zero patience for spoiled rich omegas who have never bought groceries, cleaned a floor, or worked a real job in their life. He should have towed my car, pointed me toward the nearest motel, and forgotten I existed.
Instead, he offered me a job.
An apartment over his shop.
And just enough space to wreck my life in a whole new way.
Because the longer I stay in his town, the harder it is to pretend I do not want him.
And when my suppressants run out, my body kicks into a rebound cycle that changes everything.
Now I am pregnant, my father’s people are closing in, and the grumpy alpha mechanic I am falling for is about to find out exactly how much trouble rolled into his garage with me.
The question is whether Theo will still want me when he does.
Reader Note: This book contains a grumpy alpha mechanic, a spoiled rich omega forced into real life for the first time, sharp banter, class clash, possessive heat, knotting, an accelerated surprise pregnancy, small-town refuge, family pressure, emotional vulnerability, and a hard-fought love story with plenty of steam, tenderness, and claiming. Standalone with HEA and no cliffhanger.

Very strange

🚘I feel like I've known you longer. Deeper. What we have defies any timeline I recognize🔧
"I'm drawn to Linden Fairchild. And judging by that whisper of a kiss, he might be drawn to me too. Which makes him dangerous in ways that have nothing to do with his family name or social status."
"Because expensive things break in expensive ways. And I'm starting to think Linden Fairchild is the most expensive thing that's ever broken in my life."
"The sheets smell like generic detergent instead of the lavender-infused Egyptian cotton I'm used to, but there's something oddly comforting about their simplicity. Like everything in this place: straightforward, unpretentious, real. Unlike me, who's never quite managed authentic."
"But I'm not ready to give it up. Not when something genuine is finally within reach. Not when I'm finding myself."
"And I know that when you smile, really smile, not that fake society thing, it's like seeing the sun after weeks of rain."
"That's just it, though. In some ways, I feel like I've known you longer. Deeper. What we have defies any timeline I recognize."
This was my first book by this author and it was fantastic. I love Omegaverse and this was an amazing representation. I also loved that this had MPREG as well! This had a great storyline, delicious spice 😋, and amazing side characters. One of my favorite things in this book was the found family. I really loved all the side characters so much and how supportive they were.
This story follows Linden and Theo. Linden is a sheltered, rich, entitled omega whose father is well known in the automotive business. Linden tends to be very bratty and causes some scenes when he's partying. He decides to leave and take some space from his life and duties. He ends up in some small town and his car breaks down. He hikes to a mechanic shop where he meets the grumpy alpha owner named Theo. Straight off these two have a pull towards each other. Theo let's him rent the apartment above the shop and also had him working some jobs in the shop. These two get to know one another and that leads to spicy times 🥵. Linden's father wants him to come back and nothing will stop him or get in his way. Many obstacles get in the way of their happiness. To add to all the struggles, Linden all of a sudden falls pregnant. Tensions are high between Theo and Linden. Can this couple overcome all these struggles and create a new future and family?
I loved the pull between this couple. They both judged each other at first. Theo really judged Linden but realized how smart, capable, and vulnerable he was 🥹. I love how both of these men had some insecurities but decided to put their trust and faith in one another to not give up. The chemistry was 🥵🔥🔥. I loved seeing them both grow into better versions of themselves. I really hated Linden's father and the length he would go to ruin Linden's happiness 😤. One of my favorite parts of this story was seeing Theo and Linden work together. Theo appreciated and acknowledged Linden's talent. I also loved seeing both of these men become fathers. I can't wait to read more by this author!
