So I loved Lennon ….she is a strong Omega written with a back bone of steel. And our alphas Sasha and Dominic were so well written. Sasha story … heartbreaking 💔. Holden was our beta and was written as strong as the alphas, no second fiddle for him and I loved that 😊. These authors have a TON of potential. Now … here are the problems.

I was told too much and not shown. Her time with them before the big reveal in book 1 left a lot to be desired.

Then there was the plot. What was being written was so interesting … I was hooked 😢. But it was explained away with barely a blip towards the end. The murders … how? How did Patrick manage to explain away Lennons life?? How did no one find out Patrick sudden had a child with the same name as the missing child and part owner of the team?

How and why for so many things 😖.

Then the weird chase at the end of the book. We don’t get to see the bonding … in an omega-verse 🤨.

Will I read another book by these authors. For sure. But, I know you can do better.

When you finish a book but never want to leave…

The conclusion to Lennon, Holden, Dominic & Sasha’s story was everything I hoped for and more. It was satisfying, beautifully executed, and I still wasn’t ready to say goodbye. I just wanted to stay in their HEA a little longer.

Knot Your Pucking Secret finally gives us the sides of the MMCs we’d been waiting for. The Alphas and Beta who would do anything for their Omega. Their vulnerability, patience, unwavering devotion, and desperation shine through as they grovel hard, strip themselves bare, and expose every sharp edge. They hand Lennon the figurative knife, giving her the control that was stolen from her, piece by piece.

After everything Lennon endured in Book One, watching her choose herself and walk away from her mates was worth it. She rebuilt herself through a baptism of fire, rising from the ashes like a phoenix… stronger, fiercer, and completely unstoppable.

Always underestimated, manipulated, and dismissed as a weak little Omega, Lennon finally reclaims her power and reminds everyone why Omegas are the heart of a pack. After all, diamonds are forged under immense pressure.

I absolutely loved this duet. Watching Lennon reconnect with her mates was everything I’d been hoping for, and Sasha’s journey was especially beautiful. I found myself rooting for his healing every step of the way, and seeing him return to Lennon, his sunshine..made my heart so happy.

I highly recommend this duet.

Thank you, Octavia & Lexia, for the ARC! 🖤

Happy Reading!
😊☀️🏒

Absolutely pucking phenomenal! Knot Your Pucking Secret picks up with the aftermath of Lennon learning that everything in her life is built on a lie. Her identity, legacy, and everyone she thought she could trust are gone. Lennon is left to pick up whatever fragments of her life she can. Lennon is a total boss! Despite everything, she knows who she truly is, fights, and comes back better than ever. Sasha, Dominic, and Holden royally screwed up. They tried to break Lennon, then realized that they were doing the opposite of what their hearts, minds, and souls dictated. But it was too late. Their actions caused her to almost break them. Now it is up to them to prove that their Omega means everything to them. There was some solid groveling. Poor Lennon didn't stand a chance.The guys are possessive, protective, and doting but they know when to let her take charge. I love all three guys but Dom has a special place in my heart. I can't get enough of a quiet, broody, dominant, alpha. He was so resistant towards her at first and he became the most indulgent. The Heat and Havoc series is insanely good and it has a bit of everything. It is dark, spicy, has enemies to lovers, why choose, Omegaverse, hockey, twists, an amazing plot, and characters you fall for or want to be besties with. This duet is one of my favorite reads of the year. I am so happy/sad that this is the end of Lennon's story. But I absolutely can't wait to see what comes next!

This was a more emotional story and I really enjoyed that. I mean who wouldn’t enjoy a story about sexy, gigantic men groveling?? But what I enjoyed most was this was the first book I’ve read where they truly created characters that not only put in the work needed to better themselves but they also took complete ACCOUNTABILITY! Like whattttt?!! In a real world filled with entitlement and lack of accountability and respect, this was so beautifully written to show HOW you can shift the mindset, how you can heal and be better, and how you can show up better for those you love. It takes work and time but I really appreciate that the authors didn’t skim over that. I highlighted so many great quotes from this one!

I also respect the Omega in this book and how she showed up. That poor girl kept getting knocked down from all angles and she refused to let that break her.

This story picks up from where book 1 left off so it must be read after book 1. It’s such a great series so far and totally worth the wait!

Thank you for the opportunity to arc read this!

🖤ARC Review🖤

Knot Your Pucking Secret was an emotional journey which I was not expecting after Book 1! Seeing Sasha, Holden and Dom take ownership and accountability of their actions and seek help was amazing as this doesn’t occur in many books. Lennon was a badass and stood her ground and made those men grovel! I went from hating Sasha in book 1 to completely falling for him. I rarely get emotional in books but seeing Sasha’s journey and what he has had to overcome and then the “photo” IYKYK that got me good 🥺🥺🥺
I did not want this book to end and that was my only negative, that I wish it was longer.

Bring on the next chapter…….

“This books picks up where book 1 finished so definitely read that first”

Oh my god YES 🤩
This was so well written perfect conclusion to this dark romance omegaverse duet! I loved how each members feelings were accounted for and sincere apologies and some grovelling happened before any serious reconciliation took place so the story felt totally genuine and had a heartfelt HEA ❤️

On a personal note I was super lucky to have a wonderful opportunity to meet these incredible authors at a book signing event and I couldn't have hoped to have met any more lovelier ladies as these two have made me so happy to not only to have had the pleasure to read their fantastic books but also to meet them in person they were both totally amazing, kind & funny 🥰

What an incredible spicy rollercoaster ride!

Such a satisfying outcome. I loved the way that all of the drama we were left with at the end of book one was resolved without our Kick ass FMC Lennon having to dim her light at all.

I adored the emotional journey that each of the characters had to go through, including accepting uncomfortable things about themselves and taking accountability for their own actions.

Amazing storytelling by Lexia & Octavia. I cannot wait to read where they take their series next!

[Naiomi Cox · Rating 4 out of 5]

Going on from book 1 this just grips you and wants you to keep reading.

Octavia and Lexia have written this duet so well, I felt like I was there. They have ripped my heart out put it back together and nearly ripped it out again.

Kickass FMC who won’t let any alpha or beta keep her down, just makes this series so much better.

Scent Match, Omegaverse, Ice Hockey, found family, deception, retribution

This was a disappointment. Dnf at 72%. I was ready for so much groveling and instead Sasha has done fuckall through a huge chunk of the book and she has pretty much forgiven Holden and Dominic when they have done the bare minimum to get back into her good graces. Lennon's inner dialogue was all about not forgiving them, blah blah blah. She rolled over at the first challenging moment with the guys. and there is so much inner dialogue I was bored.

YOU NEED TO READ THE FIRST BOOK TO UNDERSTAND THIS ONE!

It leaves off right from book one and I really loved this one! Lennon is done with being walked all over and treated badly. She makes the guys grovel for forgiveness and they do that & more! I really hated Sasha in the first book, but he really grows on you in this one and his journey was just so good. I'm really loving this series so far and I know there is a lot more to come! BRING IT ON!!

“Oh my God, you bitch! I told you that in confidence!”
“And I said it confidently!”

This exchange made me CACKLE out loud. My husband looked at me like I was crazy.

Lennon is a badass in this. She straight RISES to the pure fuckery of all these wack ass men around her. I love Holden's groveling. I love the way she gets back at Dominic for his level of fuckery in the first half of the duet. I think Sasha was a little rushed, but I'm not mad about it.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
🌶️🌶️🌶️

Life was lifing so this one took me way too long to finish, but i honestly enjoyed reading the conclusion to this duet.
An omega who doesn’t instantly cave for her Alpha’s or Beta is always a plus for me. Sometimes we need an extra bad ass female role. And those Alphas need to kneel and crawl for and form of forgiveness.

[Jordan · Rating 3 out of 5]

Starts right where book 1 left off. The men took full accountability for their actions and the character growth was so emotional. The girlfriend support group was strong, hilarious and I loved their friendship dynamic. Cute shorter read.

[BreAnna · Rating 5 out of 5]

So impressed with such a strong FMC omega! She really stood her ground and held her men accountable for their actions.

Only thing I struggled with was the men saying “oh I love you” and I don’t remember when it happened when they switched from hating her to loving her.

[Salima · Rating 5 out of 5]

Absolutely loved the conclusion of this duet. This duet was just amazing. I whizzed through them. I was hooked from the get go. Unfortunately I’m now in a book slump waiting for the next book by these two amazing authors!!!
