Breaking Free #8
Loved
Kell Iverson Cross never imagined he’d find so much joy in his life, and he doesn’t take a single moment for granted. His tireless work championing omega rights have made him a bit of a celebrity across the territory, so when his brother Braun suggests Kell be the first omega to run for public office, Kell doesn’t say no right away. It’s a huge risk to their family, though, and Kell isn’t sure the political statement is worth it. It may be more change than the traditionalist citizens of Sansbury are ready for—especially the ones who’ve already painted a target on Kell’s back.
Demir Higgs is barely staying afloat with both university exams and the upcoming medical school entrance test. Add in spending time with his younger brothers, cultivating his relationship with his two boyfriends, and winning over a grieving ten-year-old? He’s exhausted in the best way, because Demir is happy, healthy and in love with two amazing men—men he isn’t always sure truly need him in their lives.
Brandt Lars’s greatest wish came true when his missing bondmate Oliver and their son Eriq came back into his life. Eriq is still grieving the death of his beloved uncle, and he’s standoffish with Demir. But their family is trying to come together—as well as come out to more of their friends as an alpha/omega/beta triad. But when Oliver’s traditionalist parents refuse to accept Demir and threaten to take Eriq away, Demir can’t help wondering if it’s time for him to back out of their relationship for good…
Settle in for the final full-length installment of the BREAKING FREE series, where an accidental secret, a possible surprise pregnancy, a blast from the past, and an unexpected kidnapping combine to shake up the lives of everyone Kell and Demir know and love. But they’ll survive these challenges and changes the same way they always do: as a united and loving family.
NOTE: This is a non-shifter Omegaverse story with alpha/omega/beta dynamics, heats, knotting, mpreg, and MMM pairings. In this world, omegas are second-class citizens, but they are working toward gaining more civil rights and protections under the law. Series warnings for mentions of past physical, emotional, and sexual abuse. This series is best read in numerical order.

As i sit here writing this, I can't even begin to tell you how incredibly sad I am. Knowing this is the final book of this series, just guts me deeply, but I understand. I have laughed, cried, screamed, ranted and so much more with these men and boys. I've watched them grow from terrified omegas, living in abuse and terror, and grow into men who are changing the world with their families. I've watched their children grow and become little boys with immense personalities as their sires, knowing they will bring even more changes because of the powerhouses their parents are. It's been such an amazing journey, and I'm heartbroken to see it end.
Of course, with this series, mega trigger warnings. Read the blurb. Pasts are brought up, there is a kidnapping and beatings, bigotry and families just being dicks, so be careful.
I've watched Demir grow up so much. He's such a loving beta. Hardworking, compassionate and a family man. In the last book, he was sick of being a virgin and met Brandt, a widowed alpha, who rocked his world. They fell in love and soon after realized, Brandt’s Omega was still alive. And two became three. They're still trying to settle into their relationship. It's hard. Demir still loves at home, Oliver still has a hard time with sex without Demir, and Brandt is just trying to keep everyone happy and healthy. And after this heat, he thought they were. He knew there needed to be changes still but one step at a time. But Demir was still feeling a bit off. Especially when Oliver's parents came to remeet with Oliver and Brandt and met Demir. The meeting did not go well. And made the doubts worse. When Demir and his little brothers are kidnapped by an escaped felon they all know, it sets back Demir even worse when rescued. With more news on the way, it's very possible this three may become two again and the two will be strained.
While all this is going on, everyone else is being the family each other needs. Especially when Kell is more or less roped into running for mayor. It's fearful, being as what Kell stands for, but everyone believes in him and wants change. Maybe the province can finally bring the changes it continues to need. It's grown and changed a lot already, but it needs more work. And Kell is right for the job. If only everyone else in the province agreed.
I was so happy to see everyone back. So much growth. So many changes. Especially Demir. Being with Brandt and Oliver has given him so much, good and bad. If people would stop giving him grief about it, or stop looking at the three of them with disgust or something, that would help. I hate what Demir has to go through in this book, though. He's such a great guy. He would give anyone anything he could, including his own life. And when he loses his confidence in himself and his place, it breaks me in two. It's a horrible thing to see. Thankfully, he has friends and family everywhere surrounding and supporting him, but sometimes your own self is your worst enemy.
Oliver is still coming to terms with his past and not remembering. He's still not comfortable with a lot of things. But getting there. This journey has been super hard on him, too. With all the news he's getting from his past and the way his parents acted with him, Brandt and Demir, it was a blow.
Brandt is trying to keep it all together. He feels helpless some days. Wanting to provide and care for his little family, but sometimes he doesn't know how or what to do. These guys are going through some hard times. And the alpha in him is getting to the point, he just wants to hide his family away from everyone so they can be happy. But that's not the way, and he knows that.
With Kell, running for mayor, he knows he could bring more changes for everyone, especially omegas, if he wins. But at what cost? They all ready get threats and such because of what he's doing. So far, that's all they are. Threats. If he does this, will it be worse?
For everyone in this extended family, all the omegas and their families, it's been a hell of a journey. This book is no different. But one thing that has been constant, is their family. Family is not always blood, but the people you make it. A few are blood, but they made a huge family and they're all there for one another. Alpha, Omega and beta. Doesn't matter the gender, they love hard and stand by the sides of those they love. With very change, comes a new journey. Even if it's something small. And they all rally around one another.
If you haven't read this series, you don't know what you're missing. It's incredible. I can't say enough good things about it. I hope in the future, we will get to see maybe some snippets of how everyone is doing. I will miss these boys. Well, kinda. Lol. I will be reading these over and over again. I assure you.

I received a free copy of this title to read and review for Wicked Reads
4 Warm & Fuzzy yet Agonizing Stars
Loved is the 8th installment of the Breaking Free series by A.M. Arthur. I suggest against reading this as a standalone or out of order, since this installment reads more like a continuation from the previous book. As someone who has read all the books, I still suffer with confusion, as I try to place whose novel goes with whom, as 20+ characters are name-dropped throughout the pages, each book adding more and more characters. This has been an issue for me since book 5 or so, especially as they all have multiple children to remember. I just roll with it- if I remember who belongs with whom and what their story is, great. If I don't, I try not to get frustrated by it. In a nutshell, don't read out of order.
By the 8th installment, the books follow a familiar pattern. This isn't a bad thing per se. If you want a dose of the warm and fuzzies, the fuzziest of fuzzies, with a ton of manufactured angst and putting the characters though their emotional paces with a traumatizing event, Arthur is the author for you. By now, I know what to expect, and that's the comfort in knowing the books will follow said pattern, as I can decide when to read based on my emotional mindset, and find immense enjoyment in the familiarity.
Loved was read in two sittings for me, annoyed that I got pulled away to do everyday chores, when I wanted to just read until The End. What I enjoyed the most is that this novel explored what was left up in the air from Claimed.
More of a continuation, Demir is a favorite of mine. The beta is struggling to figure out how he fits in with Oliver and Brandt, while trying to overcome the mindset of an alpha and an omega in a mated relationship, with the betas unable to mate and create children adding another layer of angst. Not to mention the age-gap, when his boyfriends are his father's age.
As I said, Demir is my favorite character, loving his family, especially his brothers, willing to do anything to protect, meanwhile feeling insecure in what his place is within everyone's lives. He's just one of many sons of his father and stepfather, and the boyfriend to a mated pair. He tugged the heartstrings something fierce, making me feel things I didn't with the other narrators. He came off as realistic, while Brandt and Oliver were so loving, supportive, and compassionate, they came off too much as preachy or inspirational speakers to feel real to me. Flaws make the characters feel human, and what Demir suffered made that human side reveal itself.
I look forward to more in the series, hoping to see all those kids aged to adult and find love to call their own (whose names I can't remember since there are so many of them, other than Eriq, because he's fresh in my head after 2 books. Hahahaha...)
Highly recommend this series and the others by A.M. Arthur, especially when the reader is looking for the comfort of formulaic writing.

“I am honored to stand beside you on the next leg of our journey together. No matter where it takes us.”
4.5*’s… where is my extra half star when I need it???
It’s always so bittersweet coming to the end of a series that you love, but I couldn’t have asked for more from this final installment of AM Arthur’s Breaking Free books. It brought together all of the characters I’ve come to adore, making me laugh at their antics, sigh at the purity of their unconditional love for the families they’ve built and glow with pride at how far they’ve come in the face of so many challenges. And true to form, there’s no shortage of challenges testing these characters as they’re forced to fight for what’s most important to them. One of the things that I enjoyed the most, however, was that there was never any question about what those things were, even at their most vulnerable & insecure moments I never had to wonder what the characters’ priorities were or question their commitment to their relationships. I’ve been nurturing soft spots for both Kell and Demir and was so glad this book gave me a chance to spend more time with them, even if I spent a lot of it with my gut clenched, bracing myself for what they would be subjected to next.
New readers definitely want to start at the beginning of this series instead of jumping in here to enjoy it best, not only have we seen profound growth in this cast of characters but there has been a distinct evolution in the society AM Arthur has crafted. I can remember raging at the injustice of it in the early books, but there was always a strong undercurrent of hope for their future and there’s a distinct sense of satisfaction that comes from such hard-earned steps forward. If you’re an mpreg fan, this series is definitely worth your time, these characters are unforgettable and their journey has been a compelling one.

A nice wrap up for this series.
I've been a huge fan of A.M. Arthur's Breaking Free series from the very beginning and I'm sorry to see it end for this generation of characters. (She has stories planned for the offspring of the couples from the Breaking Free series.) You really do need to read the books in publication order to get the most out of them.
Loved has a lot going on in it and a lot of character names to keep straight. There's been enough time between books that I admit I had just a bit of trouble keeping everyone straight. But it didn't really matter if I couldn't keep all of the kids straight because the adult main characters were really the focus of the story and I had no trouble at all keeping track of them.
The first half of the book is about catching up with everyone and learning where they are in their lives. While I enjoyed reading that, it was the second half of the book where the nail-biting action came in. If you read the blurb you already know that there is a kidnapping in the story, but OMG it was difficult to read at times even though I knew that there would be an HEA.
I was nearly sobbing at times because this story had my emotions all tied up and I was on the edge of my seat waiting to see how it all turned out. There are some really amazing characters in this book and in the whole series. There was just so much love flowing everywhere in this story that it made up for the tense kidnapping situation.
Reading Loved was a wild ride, one I would gladly take all over again. I am eagerly looking forward to the books that A.M. has planned for the next generation in her Omegaverse world.

**I received a free copy of this book to read and review for Wicked Reads.**
Loved is the eighth and final book in the Breaking Free series.
Loved concentrates on the relationship between Oliver, Brandt and Demir. It's an unusual relationship for most of their friends. A triad isn't something most Alpha/Omega think about but for Oliver and Brandt they need Demir in their lives. When Brandt decided he wanted to finally move on from Oliver's disappearance he found Demir and fell in love. When Oliver returned he didn't remember Brandt but knew they were mates. Oliver found comfort in Demir and needed him around to be with Brandt, it calmed him. Loved goes through their relationship and how they all needed each other even though its hard and unexpected. The past comes back to haunt them when they least expect it leaving Demir feeling weak.
Loved brought these characters their HEA but you also get a glimpse into the rest of the relationships from the series. This series was a first for me but I loved every minute of it. I think it's an alpha/omega must read!

Loved (Breaking Free #8) by A.M. Arthur
4.5 stars
M/M/M Romance
Triggers: Male pregnancy, kidnapping
I was given this book for an honest review by Wicked Reads.
This book is the culmination of everything that has happened over the previous books. You for sure need to read the previous books in order to understand the relationships and nuances in this final book of the series.
Demir, Brandt and Oliver are just starting out in their triad. While Brandt and Oliver have a very strong relationship, Demir is still finding his place in it all.
You get to see the other family members and what they are doing too. It's a big reunion of sorts.
In this book, without giving much away, you'll see family pull together when it's needed the most and love blossom. Trust is given and held strong and family is everything.
I enjoyed this book a lot, but wished we got to see the results of the politics and more of the relationships. I liked the surprise thrown in too, but still wished to see more closure. But, overall, this was a great series and I really enjoyed it.

Wow!
You must read all the books in the series and in order or you will be lost, heck you still might be lost with all the characters. LOL.
I have loved almost every book in this series, I just love the characters and their stories, of course I have my favorites but who wouldn't? This series made me mad, made laugh, cry, scream and most of all love. There was so much emotion in theses stories. I can't even put into words how good some of the characters were and how much I love them.
This last installment was great, it had your usual angst/drama with everyone pulling together and things ending up as they should. It was a good ending to a great series.
I highly recommend this entire series.

Loved is the last book in the Breaking Free series by A.M. Arthur. This book continues on from book 7 with Demir and his two boyfriends, both older than him by quite a bit. They get serious fast despite his family's views on the situation, although feelings change quickly after Demir and his younger half-siblings get kidnapped. Kell is also running for mayor, which is in the blurb front and center and important in the story, though the book mostly focuses on Demir.
Demir is one of my favorite characters in the whole series. He is innocent and pure and loves so much. He chose his whole career path off an ill child of one of his stepfather’s friends. Although a ‘beta’, I think he has classic ‘omega’ qualities in the fact he cares for everyone. Oliver obviously loves Demir and so does Brandt and I’m glad to see them being more part of their son’s life.
While I am sad this series is over, I am pretty happy with the ending; I had hoped to see a new couple in this one, but we saw a bit of everyone. I really hope we get to see more shorts of these characters and maybe even a spin-off? I would love to see stories of the kids when they are older especially Kell's twins.

It’s not often the eighth and final book in a series is worth 5 stars, but I really enjoyed this one. To be honest, I’ve only read 1,7 and now 8, but that’s ok. 7 and 8 fit together and you need to read both to get the full picture of the plotline which started in 7.
The two books explore all the stresses and strengths of a threesome. They also deal with significant age gaps. Plus it incorporates some pretty intense drama.
Some readers have great difficulty dealing with age gaps. They do exist in RL. I’ve met couples who have similar differences and they’ve been happy for decades. Who knows what the future will bring.
I tried another author’s MPreg and gave up a couple of chapters in. This author uses the trope to explore lots of stereotypes surrounding the whole alpha, beta, omega cliches. The characters are people foremost. I like the way that politics plays an important part. And the kids play a vital role but are not annoyingly cute.
I may even backtrack and read some of the intervening books.

Wow!! What an amazing journey! I have loved this entire series and this book is the perfect final glimpse into the lives of these men who have a place in my heart. I loved the writing and the story-line was intense, heartfelt and immensely satisfying.
So many incredible and memorable stories of survival and triumph where these amazing guys found love and made a family of friends and lovers. I have cried and laughed with these couples as they fought their way to finding themselves and learning to love. This
This is the eighth book in the Breaking Free series and really must be read in order, because each story builds upon the next until you have a community of families and you have learned to love each couple.

This conclusion of the Breaking Free series is just as satisfying and consistent as the previous books in the series. A sort of duology with Book 7, Demir, Brandt, and Oliver continue to explore their triad while dealing with some significant challenges. Although technically a stand-alone, Book 8 will be enjoyed so much more if the previous books are read first. The book at times gets a little cumbersome while trying to keep up with so many characters from previous books, as well as their new children, but it's basically a feel-good read with a good focus on the MCs. You'll find yourself really rooting for this family's happiness all the way.

While the synopsis leads you to believe that this story is largely about Kell running for mayor as well as the triad we love so much, Demir, Oliver, and Brandt kind of steal the show. Yeah we get a little from Kell but not much. It worked though because the triad still had a lot of story to share. Demir is still struggling a little bit with his place in the relationship and feelings of inadequacy. An old enemy comes back to cause some trouble as well. There is a lot going on in this story and not all of it is tied up nice and tight at the end, but life is messy. It's a beautiful mess though.

Sadly, the continuation of Brandt, Oliver and Demir’s story brings us to the end of an amazing series, BUT what’s a way to go out!
I love these men so hard! Selfless, kind, compassionate and sexy? We’ve known Demir from several books...way back...and watching him grow and love?
Please don’t leave us hanging! I want to see the dynamic as the family grows and Dr. Demir is a reality!
Highly recommended!

MUST READ!!
There are no words to describe how happy this book makes me! I love AM Arthur’s Omegaverse series with its characters who grow together, learn from each other and fight together! I absolutely love this couple, Brandt, Oliver and Dermir! There were twists and turns in this book that had me gasping, smiling and crying. What a wonderful conclusion to a beautiful series. Can’t wait to read the spin-off series and seeing familiar faces!

An alpha/omega bonded couple and the younger beta they both love are at the heart of this final installment in A.M. Arthur’s ‘Breaking Free’ series. I can confidently state that this is the finale, even though I wondered during my reviews of the previous two books, because the author actually said it in the blurb. Phew! Of course, the author has written a spin-off to this series and I’ll be looking forward to delving into those books as the year continues. It is my opinion that these books must be read in order and the author’s warnings should be taken seriously.
Brandt, Oliver, and Demir are still newly poly in a province that doesn’t look too fondly upon throuples. Not only are the three of them navigating their new relationship, but Demir’s dad is having a difficult time accepting it, not to mention when Oliver’s parents come to visit… well, let’s just say that doesn’t go very well. On top of all of this, Brandt and Oliver have to tell Eriq about his murderous Uncle Diego who confessed to killing the father Eriq knew, and then killed himself. Oi! It’s drama, drama, drama with no end in sight.

Oh my heart, the tears!
This book. It has devastated and completely enraptured my heart. Poor demir. I love him. I can't get over how utterly perfect this character is. Just everything. This book is so amazing. I am so utterly sad I really wish this isn't the end. I need these characters to continue. They are perfect. The whole world.

Such a great way to finish
This book focuses on Kell,Ronin, as Kell tries to continue Omegas freedoms. And Demir, Brandt and Oliver as they navigate real life as a triad. I can't say more, I don't want to give anything away. This story is fantastic and ended perfectly.

A nice continuation
I was glad to get to see more of Oliver and his men. Seeing them continue to get their HEA is great. I know she said this would be the last full length, but this story isn’t quite over yet so I hope we’ll get more.

I had difficulty choosing between 3 and 4 stars for this book. I like Demir and we get to see so many of the previous couples of the series in this book. But the throuple romance in this book was meh.
