Look To Pass
She wants to be independent. They WANT her.
If only it were that simple.
I’m not looking to fall in love.
The rules are clear for omegas on a college scholarship -- no fraternizing with athletes. No posing a distraction.
No exceptions.
So what if my older brother is a professional rugby player and vice-captain of the Willow Falls Wolves?
I’m not some simpering omega hanging around the rugby pitch in between classes, waiting for one of his teammates to glance my way.
I turn up to support him -- because I love the sport and him -- but that’s where I draw the line.
However, it turns out, there are three alpha-sized problems I can't seem to avoid…
Scotland's hottest rugby export is the persuasive, charming, superstar fullback who sets his sights on me -- simply refusing to take no for an answer.
Adding to my problems, my brother's best friend is the starting center for the Wolves -- broody, sullen, with a giant chip on his shoulder to match his enormous thighs.
To make matters very much more difficult, there's Mr. Handsome and Perfect, a retired rugby legend who owns the team -- oh, and he's my ex-boyfriend's dad.
As hard as I try to run the other way, our worlds collide, and despite the risks, they tempt me to break every rule.
Even though a pack is the last> thing I’m looking for,
I don’t know if we can fight the attraction we share.
Will this be a moment that passes me by?
Or will I let them win my heart?
Look to Pass is a MMFM why-choose rugby romance. It is part of the Willow Falls Omegaverse world, full of swoon, scorching heat(s), and sweetness. Narrated in duet style.

DNF @ 51% / 51 chapters read -- which let me remind y'all means I've read over 400 pages of this book.
The only reason for a romance book to be so damn long is if it is a slow burn or there is an actual plot. We have neither. We have the main character letting her scent matches they can't be together (for valid reasons) while being in a relationship with them. istg they've been in a relationship since... at least 30%??? I kind of want to say 25% with the caveat being the one alpha who wonders why she doesn't look at him or find him interesting when girlie literally thinks he HATES HER since he ignores her. I suppose they are a slow burn, but it is practically nothing since they don't interact. He's had 4 (I counted) POV chapters in 51-- FIFTY-FUCKING-ONE chapters. I believe they've had 3 scenes together, one of which he just sat in the car and said literally nothing, and one text exchange, in I REPEAT over 400 pages!
This book started out soooo good and I do like the characters, I swear I do. I'm so interesting in the stories for the roommates. I just need a goal, a plot, something the characters are striving for. Hell, if they talked more about their situation and how to make it work instead of hiding and fearing the day her brother finds out (Why wouldn't he be happy she found her scent matches???), I might have been able to finish it. If it focused on Wren trying to balance getting through school while being physically pained with her scent matches going away for games, I'd be down for that too! At this point, it feels like they are ignoring the problems and it'll bite them in the ass at 80% so we can have some angst before getting over it.

this emoji is the best way to describe how I felt reading this book. this was my first omegaverse read and I was honestly shocked at first 🫢 but it was really fun and intense.
at first, the length of the book felt a bit daunting, but once I started, I found it surprisingly hard to put down.

omegas aren’t particularly accepted in this college town because of the harsh and unfair assumptions people have about them, especially from the betas.
she really didn’t want to give in to forming a pack… but you can never really deny a scent match.

these men loved Wren so much. i loved how different their personalities were, but they all cared for her in their own ways. as alphas, their instinct is to protect and take care of her, and it really showed.

he’s protective, bossy, and completely down bad.
he’s just wonderful, he cares so much about Wren that he doesn’t even think twice before putting her needs before his.
despite Wren being half his age, he always treated her like her own person, and she called the shots when it mattered. ugh!! this man is everything 🤭

reading from his perspective made me understand him so much more because without it, i probably would’ve just thought he was uptight.
there are so many layers to him, and he takes yearning to a different level!

the chemistry between Wren and her men was amazing. they were always so attentive to her and her needs, which felt really thoughtful and natural within their dynamic.
what always gets me is how they refer to her as “my girl” or “our girl”… it never fails to get me 🫠
this is also my first MMFM book, and it was so well written. i loved how the MMCs slowly grew into their own bond with each other outside of Wren, it really felt like a pack forming.
i did have to do a bit of research on omegaverse before starting because it was new to me, but i’m glad i did.
thankfully I enjoy a lot of spice, so I ended up getting into it more than I expected. this was such a ride.
i wouldn’t recommend this if you only like clean or minimal spice in books.
i also loved Wren’s friends, Nikita and Gabbie!!!
they were always there for her and their friendship felt like real sisterhood ❣︎

I'm not much for sports, but recently found out thanks to a specific series that I read.... I kind of like them... This one definitely didn't shy away from anything in the sports area and made it a big part of the story, I can't testify to if any of the rugby information is correct as I know nothing about sports but the authors writing did make it easy for me to have my own mental visuals of things happening during games and such. The book has some laughs, and definitely is a much more cozy vibe than other OV books I commonly read. This one isn't touching on the deeper topics of human trafficking and the like but it does touch on some topics to make changes to omega scholarships, the rugby circuit for pack dynamics and such. It is long yes, but that's not to uncommon. This book has A LOT MORE sexually explicit scenes than a lot of OV books I commonly read. I feel like once it happened, it definitely started happening OFTEN in this book where it may not have been absolutely necessary but at the same time scent matches do work differently than in some other ones I've read. One may be aware of a scent match while the other is not, another may feel it flare to life from the first moment they catch each others scents, and some could be together for years or weeks or months and suddenly it just happens, but they've had an undeniable connection prior. I do feel like the conflict within the story feels like it was dropped quite a bit or brushed aside. I wish it touched MORE on omega rights and their scholarships, as the spice did feel it overtook the plot for me.
For her friends it definitely seems there have been a lot of hints as to who is being paired up next. Now the hints I feel were more heavily dropped on Gabbie as there's a few moments that point to a specific alpha, and one or two that happen with Nikita. Nikita's book looks like it comes next though and I have some guesses as to where the direction is going on that one or at least the who.
If you like a chunky book, lots of explicit scenes, cozy sporty vibes, MMFM action, fighting for omega rights I'd recommend giving it a try. I found the story to be fun, it's definitely got it's spice, and I'm curious to how the next books will go.

Interesting premise and four diverse, likeable MCs… but oh so self-indulgent and in need of editing at a whopping 803 pages! There were insufficient twists and turns or revelations - this is not a sweeping saga - to sustain the plot over that expanse, and I nearly DNFd.
The book could have easily been half that length, and a stronger, more compelling read as a result.
Almost everything was clear from the first few chapters of this RH, OV sports romance. Think of it like starting to watch a new 10-episode series, but little changes after episode two, with the same issues and tensions on repeat, spicy scenes only slightly altered and sparse character development (beyond their bonds). And by the end, a key antagonist still had not really been dealt with other than a throwaway line.
I also spotted quite a few grammatical errors (and the odd missing word).
There was a fair bit of foreshadowing of where subsequent books will head, featuring the FMC’s two omega friends; I hope they are more concise tomes, with tighter plots and stronger character growth.
2.75 stars but had potential to rate higher.

Look To Pass is my introduction to the Omegaverse. I spent a surprising amount of time on Google trying to figure out what everyone was talking about. Fern Oliver drops readers straight into the terminology and dynamics without much explanation. If you are already familiar with Omegaverse romance, you will probably slide right into Willow Falls. Newcomers may find themselves researching heats, scent matches, Alphas, omegas, and pack dynamics before they can settle into Wren's romance.
Wren wants independence and needs to protect the scholarship keeping her in college. Dating athletes is forbidden. This becomes a serious problem after she catches the attention of three men connected to the Willow Falls Wolves rugby team. Connor is the charming Scottish fullback. Ace is her brother's broody best friend. Theo is the older team owner and her ex-boyfriend's father. All three eventually become part of Wren's pack. The relationships between the men add a MM element that I enjoyed seeing incorporated into the group dynamic.
The romance quickly becomes far more about sex than anything happening outside the bedroom. Wren spends a huge portion of these 818 pages having sex with Connor, Ace, Theo, or some combination of the three. At times it felt like the entire Wolves roster was eventually going to get a turn. The spice is certainly plentiful. Quantity was never the problem. The particular Alpha and omega dynamics did very little for me. Wren's submissive behavior was pretty tiring. Though, a few smutty scenes worked better than others for my personal preferences. I enjoyed seeing Connor, Ace, and Theo develop sexual relationships with each other instead of existing solely as men who shared Wren.
The bigger problem was how little narrative remained underneath all the smut. Rugby mostly provides scenery and convenient transitions from one sexual encounter to the next. You do not need any knowledge of the sport to follow the story. Wren's scholarship creates the primary conflict around her relationships, but its resolution comes so quickly that the secrecy of her trysts with the team never really matters. An 818-page romance needs more happening between intimate scenes to justify that length.
Look To Pass taught me two things. Omegaverse romance probably is not my personal flavor of romance and five pepper spice can still leave me wishing for a different recipe. Pick this up if you already love Omegaverse dynamics, extremely high spice, MMFM relationships, and large portions of pack bonding.

800 pages for what ?
Honestly I wanted to like it, but it was just bad.
Our FMC is a self proclaimed independent go getter, but she's entirely dependent on the MMCs for literally everything as soon as they get together.
They get together at around the 30% mark, and then every scene is just an excuse to write a smut scene. I appreciate a good sex scene as much as the next gal, but this was ridiculous.
Also, there is no clear conflict, so what was the point of it all? Her brother? Instantly accepts her relationships, no Biggie. The whole scholarship hinging on her not having a relationship with an athlete ? Don't worry, she talked to a big wig in a coffee shop that one time and he's now on her side forever, and they're going to change society with the snap of a finger.

This book is TOO DAMN LONG - 800 PAGES!
Honestly, I speed skimmed the last 250 pages. This felt emotionally shallow, and the relationship between Atlas and Connor was underdeveloped. I don't feel like I got to know these characters well at all.
I'm still unclear why omegas are treated as they are in this world. Of course there would be professional alpha athletes that are in packs. Of course omegas would meet their mates during college. Why were these things restricted to begin with?
A reluctant 3 stars. This could have and should have been 300 pages shorter.
This is bitchy (and I don't care) but the money spent on the (wonderful) character art should have been spent on a developmental editor.

She went to a coffee shop and ordered a hot chocolate. The barista asked for her name, and then she narrates in her head how omega friendly it is bc the barista knows she won’t want her actual name called. Uh, no. The barista wanted to know whose name to call when they were done making the drink.

‼️SPOILERS‼️
The whole time I’m reading this and I don’t know if it’s just me but this book seriously gave me Pucking Around vibes but take out the hockey and make it rugby and did I tell you that it’s omegaverse?
I totally signed up for this when I found out one of her alphas was her jerk of ex’s dad. Theo was the perfect beginning to her forming peck. He is such a caregiver and I’m such a sucker for a man that takes care of you. I mean, he is the Daddy of the pack.
Atlas aka Ace and Connor. These two had me all giddy from the first kiss in the library to Connor bonding her (favorite scene ever) to just all the emotional feels. I just love how even with Connor being an entertaining alpha to say the least, this man was so needy and I was here for it. Also, the bathroom scene with Theo and Connor and the elevator scene with Atlas and Connor. Can you tell I love a lot of the MM moments?!
Atlas - I just wanted to hug him because the fact he knew they were scent matches for a long time and she didn’t. Ugh. His whole chaperone moments was too cute.
And yall, the nicknames that they give to one another. She didn’t just get the nicknames but they also had some for the guys. I’m a fan of endearments for one another. Bambi was my favorite.
I’m a huge fan of how when her omega comes out because you get to see how internally what she’s like.
The ending was absolutely cute. I need Wren’s brother’s story because I have a feeling it is going to be perfect. He won on me for his little scene with the little meeting towards the end.
The way that the found family is portrayed is portrayed, especially when the team protected her at the end.
The way they these men loved Wren was perfect because they would do anything.
When a big bish has me in a chokehold and I finish an 800 page book in a day and a half, you just know you’re going to have a good time. It has all the good feels and made me want more.
This book had so many cute moments and I was so sad that it was over. And did we get a glimpse of Wren’s sister meeting her scent matches? I cannot wait for the next book.
I received a copy of this book and this is my honest review.

And yall, the nicknames that they give to one another. She didn’t just get the nicknames but they also had some for the guys. I’m a fan of endearments for one another. Bambi was my favorite.
I’m a huge fan of how when her omega comes out because you get to see how internally what she’s like.
The ending was absolutely cute. I need Wren’s brother’s story because I have a feeling it is going to be perfect. He won on me for his little scene with the little meeting towards the end.
The way that the found family is portrayed is portrayed, especially when the team protected her at the end.
The way they these men loved Wren was perfect because they would do anything.
When a big bish has me in a chokehold and I finish an 800 page book in a day and a half, you just know you’re going to have a good time. It has all the good feels and made me want more.
This book had so many cute moments and I was so sad that it was over. And did we get a glimpse of Wren’s sister meeting her scent matches? I cannot wait for the next book.
I received a copy of this book and this is my honest review.

I went into this with zero expectations and ended up being pleasantly surprised. I think I was just in the right mood for it because I usually don’t enjoy fast burn romances but thought this was fun. A Why Choose Omegaverse romance where every member falls in love with one another was so cute. This is over 800 pages long and I finished it within a day shows how much it hooked me. There wasn’t much of a plot but I loved all the characters. I’m so excited for all the side characters to get their stories too after all the breadcrumbs that were dropped in this one.

Three forbidden scent match alphas and one omega…what could go wrong?! What could go right 😜😮💨
Wren is on an omega scholarship at the same campus as her brother’s rugby team. There are strict rules for omegas which she has no intention of breaking…until she meets her scent match…and then two more. Navigating heats, emotions, forbidden relationships proves to be much more than Wren or her guys ever bargained for.
These four absolutely stole a piece of my heart. All of their journeys were so different but I loved each and every one. Daddy Theo, Big Guy Con and Broody Atlas aka swoon, swoony and swoonier?? I loved how not only they were devoted to their omega but also to each other. Truly a cohesive and beautiful pack dynamic 🖤 also that second heat group scene will live rent free in my brain FOREVER 😮💨😮💨😮💨
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Dare I say Fern could be a new comfort read author for me??? This was such a cozy delight I never wanted it to end 🥲

When low self esteem meets bad ideas.
This had to be one of the worst Omega verse novels I’ve ever read. The FMC spends the entire book worried about being a burden and worried that being in a bonded pack will invalidate her Omega scholarship if they’re caught. You’d think if you were worried about something like that you’d practice discretion, right? WRONG! She manages to almost always have some sort of sex w/ at least 2 members of her pack in a place where they can be easily caught. Worries constantly that she’s a burden on them then proceeds to do the most burdensome thing possible by having her “omega nature” always conveniently crop up in public and spiral mentally cause her alphas won’t have sex with her immediately and is never able to wait to get home. Are you fvcking kidding me? What kind of garbage plot device was this?
It’s one thing to have the world discrimate against your designation it’s another thing to prove 50% of that discrimination was warranted. Don’t know if the FMC was just a particularly over dramatic mess or if all Omegas are that useless in this universe and I may never find out cause of how insufferable the FMC was

I gave it a chance to make me interested enough to continue, but I’ve realised it must be not for me. I don’t feel the vibes, it’s hard for me to get into it, and my main problem is that it’s too long.
But huge thanks to the author and Luna Literary Management for sending me this ARC.

Move over hockey, rugby is my new favorite sports romance! Is there a better combination than short shorts, strong thighs, and obsessed alphas? I think knot (pun very much intended).
Buckle up because you’re in for a long ride. This book was over 800 pages long but I throughly enjoyed it.
This book had all the things I love in omegaverse books. Obsessed alphas who want to dote on their omega, inconvenient heats, and so much spice! But I also loved the new take on an omega’s place in the world.
Did I mention this book was spicy? Because holy forking shirtballs this book was hot! I love when the boyfriends are also boyfriends. The tension between Ace and Connor has me ready to lock them in a storage room together. The chemistry between Connor and Theo scorching hot. And of course the three of them were completely obsessed with Wren making the group scenes incredibly hot. 🥵
I already can’t wait for the next book in the series. The snippet at the end of the book has me so excited for Nikita’s book!

Thank you so much, Luna Literary, for the arc!
Whew, what a beast of a book. 800 pages definitely caught me off guard.
Overall, it's a comfy polyamorous omegaverse sports romance. As you can expect of a book of this size, it's got some pacing issues, scenes dragging on for much longer than they should. But the foundation is solid.
It's got some open ends and plot holes, like
I enjoyed that all characters are bisexual. To me, it makes much more sense for a pack to also be into each other, instead of just a reverse harem. Gives the relationships more dynamic.
I'll keep an eye out for the sequels. There have been some intense hints dropped who the next pairings are gonna be.

This was SO SO good!! Omg!
I ended the book with over 100 highlights! I had experienced every emotion during this read, the writing/story telling was PHENOMENAL!
I loved every single character! Absolutely no one fell behind or blended together, they were all so incredibly well thought out and distinct, you could genuinely pull them out of a crowd with how well developed they were.
I’m beyond in love with this series, I cannot wait for the next books!

This is a sports MMFM. Wren’s men each had their own personalities. Each one cared for her in their own way. She was sassy and stubborn. Each guy met her needs as they saw she needed it. Theo was the bossy protective one, Connor didn’t let anything hold him back and Atlas was your grump. They are were perfect together.
Read
June 8, 2026DNF at 72% Aka 586 pages. This was kinda good but it's way. too. long for not that much plot. They're all together already, so we're just waiting for the big discovery and drama then the end, but there has been so MUCH fillers I can't take it anymore.
June 22, 2026
I never want to read or hear the word ‘channel’ in *that* context ever again.
July 13, 2026
Okay I did it…
It’s way too fucking long.
Had this been 400 pages MAX it could’ve been great but it just kept on going and going and it’s not like anything special happened…
And there‘s a bonus epilogue?? This was NINETY-TWO CHAPTERS already, THAT‘S ENOUGH SLICES!!!
Also, for people who are supposedly terrified of getting caught, they’re so obvious and reckless.
Even the “conflict“ was extremely easily and conveniently solved…mostly passively, too!

I’m not sure if it was the length of the book that got me at 800+ pages, but I felt like there was a lot of nothing being said/happening for a good majority of this book. As for an OV novel, it wasn’t terrible, but I don’t think I would read the next one if it had a similar layout to this one.
June 14, 2026
DNF at page 331 and it's not even 50% yet. PAGE 331. Yup let that sink in THREE HUNDRED AND THIRTY ONE PAGES and this book looked me dead in the eyes and said
"We're not even halfway there babe 😛"
LIKE BITCH WHAT????
Also WHYYYYY are we describing every single solitary little thing in excruciating fucking detail.
EVERY. LITTLE. FUCKING. THING.
This is supposed to be a spicy why choose omegaverse, RIGHT?? So why am I 40% in and I have read approximately one million rugby game descriptions and oh what’s that??? ONE sex scene like WHAT IS HAPPENING QUEEN. I don't care about the rugby, I never cared about the rugby. Nobody picked up this fucking book because they wanted to care about the damn rugby!!!!!!
Also bestie we get it, she's independent, she doesn't need a man this is truly groundbreaking stuff she is so fucking strong and unique and doesn't need anyone. We know.
WE KNOW. You have told us this literally every other page since chapter one and I am begging you to let her just BE that without announcing it like a fucking town crier every five minutes!!
ANYWAY.
DNF. The rugby won. I lost, we move on.

DNF 2%. Inane and mind numbing chatter. All tell. No show. Nothing is happening, and now that I check the reviews, nothing ever happens.
Also, the title makes no sense. I’m sure it’s some sports thing but we shouldn’t have to read the War and Peace of omegaverse to learn what it means.
Eight hundred pages? For this? Insane.

Incredibly Entertaining Story, Narration & Listen🎧
Look To Pass
Willow Falls Rugby Omegaverse Series, Book 1
By: Fern Oliver
Narrated by: Meg Sylvan, Stephen Dexter, Will M. Watt, Nathaniel Ames
It is always great to check out new authors or new-to-me authors, even greater when that author blows you away with the story they created, and that is just what Fern Oliver did with her incredibly entertaining story. It has been a while since my last Omegaverse novel, and Oliver reminded me of how much I love them, the imaginative Omegaverse and its hierarchy within, with each universe unique to its creator. Fern’s Omegaverse is the most common, but she still makes it her own, and her world-building and character growth and development are fantastic. The Alpha rules, and the Omegas, who are looked down upon, have fewer privileges, including when they can go to college and how they get in. The lead female character, Wren Murphy, finally gets to attend college, on an Omega scholarship, and there are rules she must follow, including what to do and where to go if she has her heat. She just wanted her education and had no plans of getting involved with any alphas, especially not any athletes, since her brother, Finch, is the vice captain of the rugby team, the Wolves. Then, she ran into him, the one who tried to claim her drink at the coffee shop, Connor Renfro, #15, aka Scotland, and her brother’s teammate, but she played that down, as if she did not know who he was, which intrigued him even more and he was not giving up on her. Next up was Theo Brennan, the owner of the Wolves and the father of her ex, and if that is not complicated enough, or that he is nineteen years older than her, he is her scent mate. Speaking of complicated, her brother’s best friend, Atlas Palamo, who felt his connection to her the moment they met, feelings that were not reciprocated and being who he was to her brother it was in his best interest to ignore the feelings, which Wren took as not being liked by him. It was great getting to know all four characters, each having an interesting backstory, and it was also great watching their relationships form and then morph into something so much more. Wren’s roomies and new besties, Nikita and Gabbie, were amazing too, and I was happy to see Nikita was getting her own book too. Three is a whole lot of story in “Look To Pass”, a captivating story with non-stop drama, some angst, lots of witty dialogue, charming and heartwarming moments, heartfelt emotions and steamy polyamorous scenes. Fern Oliver, thank you for the incredibly entertaining story and the emotional and steamy rollercoaster ride.
🎧📚🎧 And for the fabulous multi-cast production performed in duet by Meg Sylvan, Stephen Dexter, Will M. Watt, and Nathaniel Ames, an amazing line-up of talent. Their character voices are fantastic, and I loved how they took each role and made it their own, sounding believable and just as I imagined the characters would sound. Sylvan’s take on Wren was perfection, grasping every facet of her personality, from her strength and determination to her sass and fierceness, speaking of sass, she nailed it as Nikita and Gabbie too, giving each their own unique voice, fitting to their personalities. Dexter also nailed it as Theo, the protective alpha boss, and Watt was just as amazing as the resident Scot, Connor, lovable, upbeat with a heart of gold, and Ames acing it as Atlas, the broodiest of them all. All embodied their characters completely and were naturals in their roles. Their expressive delivery conveys all the characters’ emotions, as well as their passion, making you feel it all. An ideal cast brings these characters and story to life, with voices that complement each other, and an engaging performance that is not only fabulous to listen to, but one that hooks you to the story and dialogue.

🍑 And she’s her brother’s best friend’s Peaches!
WHAT MORE COULD AN OMEGA POSSIBLY NEED?! 🥵🔥
THREE ALPHAS. ONE OMEGA. ONE LOVING PACK! 🐺❤️
Y’ALL!!! When I tell you this book had me EATING IT UP!! 🏉🔥 Fern Oliver said, let’s give them rugby players, a stubborn omega, forbidden attraction, a little daddy energy, and enough chemistry to SET THE WHOLE RUGBY FIELD ON FIRE!! AND SHE DELIVERED! 🥵
Meet Wren Murphy, our independent, strong-willed omega who has ONE goal: get through college, protect her scholarship, and STAY AWAY FROM ATHLETES!
Sounds simple, right? WRONGGGG! 😂 Because THREE very determined alphas have other plans!
🏉 ATLAS PALAMO (ACE) — The broody, grumpy, brother’s-best-friend alpha! This man is all attitude, muscles, and possessive energy! And you KNOW we love a grumpy man who has a soft spot for his girl! 🍑🖤
🏉 CONNOR RENFOE (SCOTLAND) — THE SCOTTISH CHARMER!! 🥵🔥 A confident, smooth-talking rugby superstar who knows exactly what he wants! And when that Scottish charm comes out? SIRRRR!! THE AUDACITY!! THE ACCENT!! THE SWOON!! 🦌

But here’s what really had me hooked…
IT WASN’T JUST ABOUT THE HEAT! IT WAS ABOUT THE PACK! ❤️
Wren wasn’t looking for love, and she certainly wasn’t looking for three alphas to turn her carefully planned life upside down. But watching these relationships develop, seeing the different personalities come together, and the way these men wanted to love and protect their omega? THAT’S THE GOOD STUFF!!
The chemistry? 🔥🔥🔥
The possessiveness? YES PLEASE!
The forbidden tension? DELICIOUS!
The sweetness? MY HEART! 🥹❤️
And the MM dynamics woven into this pack? Just another reason I love a good MMFM romance!
🎧🔥 NOW LET’S TALK ABOUT THIS AUDIOBOOK!!
FOUR NARRATORS?! MEG SYLVAN, STEPHEN DEXTER, WILL M. WATT & NATHANIEL AMES?!

The different voices, the personalities, the accents, and the chemistry made this such a fun, immersive listening experience! Each alpha brings something different to the story, and hearing those personalities come to life made the pack dynamics even more entertaining.
And that Scottish accent?! ABSOLUTELY SWOON-WORTHY!! 🫠🥵
This is exactly why I LOVE audiobooks! When the narration adds that extra layer of emotion, tension, and personality, I’m ALL IN!

This is exactly why I LOVE audiobooks! When the narration adds that extra layer of emotion, tension, and personality, I’m ALL IN!

This was such a delicious combination of spice, sweetness, forbidden romance, and found-family vibes! I loved that underneath all that alpha energy was a story about an omega learning that she could be fiercely independent AND allow herself to be loved.

A spicy read - that could have been so much more.
There was a lot that I liked about this book - but it could have been so much more with a bit of editing, a little restraint, and a slight tweak to a few beats. The writing is articulate and interesting, the premise promising, the author has a clear voice.
The following is intended to be helpful! So - if the author reads this - I’m hoping this will be taken as suggestions to help them with the sequel (which I do intend to read!)
I love omegaverse that can be read through a critical lens to mirror cultural and social issues in the real world. When I started this book, I was really hopeful that this was going to be one such book.
Over 800 pages later, I was a bit disappointed to find that it wasn’t.
This book has a lot going for it. It just got a bit lost in the weeds on its way there. Don’t get me wrong - it would have benefited from either a serious edit or being split into 2 books. I don’t know exactly how long it is, but I would be surprised if it came in at under 200k words. It’s a massive read, and while a lot of the spice is good, it’s hard to find the time or concentration span to read this in a sitting - and the nuances of this book mean that if you break it across sittings.
But this isn’t I couldn’t give it a higher rating. The plot engine for the book is that the FL’s scholarship comes with strings - she can’t date athletes. So having athlete scent matches confounds this somewhat. There was such a missed opportunity here for the FL to mirror the action of the athletes on the field, for change to be driven - but instead, it all happens around her and her pack, while they sit passively by, and rely on the action of others. The whole issue with her scholarship is resolved with a single phone call from a man who happens to like her because she offered him a seat one day, and a woman who she knows from volunteering.
Reading this through a feminist lens - it just reinforces that old message of ‘keep being nice and eventually good things will happen.’
The book also seemed to forget about her schoolwork - no mention of exams, no penalty for missed classes, no indication of semester breaks, no consequences for late assignments or homework.
I also was really uncomfortable with the way heats were represented. Rather than being animalistic urges, the temporary triumph of the id over the ego and superego (the way heats are usually framed and the way it was described earlier in the book, when her pack talked about her not being able to consent while in heat and being non-verbal), it was like she had a split personality - her inner voice was perfectly articulate, even breaking the fourth wall to crack jokes with the reader. It made her seem like she had multiple personality disorder.
Readers who want a spicy read they don’t want to think too deeply about, have time on their hands, and want to know more about rugby (and enjoy the mental image of a man with thick, strong thighs in tight shorts - because I will definitely give the author that, she did that extremely well) might enjoy this book.
