Lucky is homeless, pregnant with already two children and no alpha and he’s hopelessly optimistic.
When alpha Kellen security guard at the mall, sees the omega sitting, he knows he’s the one. He’s head over heels.
Lucky feels the same only he has nothing to offer.

“Mate. Mine. Take his knot. Stake your claim.”

Living secretly in the mall with two kids, stealing to survive Lucky knows he’ll get caught one day, if Kellen ever finds out.

Oke, it was a fun read, nicely written, sweet, with two lovely kids, but for my pleasure a bit ott. I enjoyed it and had to smile at the silly circumstances. They get their happy ending and that was great!

Definitely sweet and funny! Laughed out loud a few times!

Since it contains mpreg this book qualifies as fantasy, but in the last part of it the author definitely went over the top with some of the things that happened. Just a few that were not very believable. Other than that I loved the rest of it!

3.5 stars!

This was new to me author, and I’m not the biggest fan of the cover, but I’ve been wanting some cute fluffy omegaverse lately so I decided to give this one a shot; and I’m so glad I did! This was cute, instalove to the extreme, quirky, and at times laugh out loud funny. It did feel at times that it was a little too long and I think it could’ve been trimmed down, but I still enjoyed it immensely. If you’re looking for a cute omegaverse story with charming characters and just an all around sweet story this may just be the book for you! I know I’ll definitely check out more of this series and from this author in the future.

Super cute Alpha/omega story

Lucky was not so lucky. His Alpha got tired of him and kicked him and his two kids out, and Lucky's pregnant. He landed at an omega house but he can't stay there now. Homeless, he and his kids meet mall security officer Kellen. Kellen is the best Alpha, thoughtful, sweet and he loves kids. He knows Lucky is his omega but he just has to convince Lucky.

Lucky and Kellen belong together. Kellen tries not to rush Lucky. It's a cute love story that ends in a happy ever after.

Somebody got lucky!



Despite a few inconsistencies, it was a nice story. I am still slightly confused about male omega and female alpha child producing logic, but I guess that one is on me?
It was an okay story. Both characters were adorable and exasperating on different levels, while also being funny. Although, sometimes I found Lucky's brand of humor just.. too much. Some of their banter was really good though. Overall it was a nice story with a somewhat predictable plot and a lot of babies. Like really, a lot.

"A Gripping, Emotional, Hopeful, Humorous Story"      

Wow.  An absolutely gripping, highly emotional, heart-breaking, beyond hopeful, side-splitting, squishy adorable read has just left me in a state of profound amazement.  My latest read turned out to be not even remotely what I would have even predicted I'd be reading.  I'm thinking a happy-go-lucky story, maybe taking place in Ireland, perhaps a character(s) who was of Irish descent.  Reality?  Pfffft  Not even close.  Instead, it was addicting, heart-rending, and ultimately unputdownable.     

His Accidental Shamrock Omega, Ava Beringer, is a seemingly never-ending emotional journey of a loving, courageous, and strong father of three beautifully sweet young boys, and I couldn't get enough of them.  An immediate sense of shock, denial, and undeniable forlorn, readers are right off the bat taken on a desperate run of survival as the main characters set out to find their ultimate sense of peace and unwavering happiness.  Wow.  What a ride it was.     

As an almost kind of insta-love, His Accidental Shamrock Omega was a heavy and hopeful read with plentiful characters who either had me loving them immediately, giggle-snorting, fist-pumping, or, intensely pleased with their dedication, bravery and absolute love.  The heaviness was indescribable and lengthy, the kindness was sob-worthy, and the sunset was stellar.     

However.  Clearly, this was a story that was not representative to what was envisioned. Speaking for this reader, I'm not a fan of being caught off guard regardless of how gripping, emotional, and beautiful the story was as a whole.  I also didn't really feel the connection completely, there needed more development as there were a few things that were left unsaid, and, some of the necessary scenarios were told rather than developed for the reader to be able to fully experience. 

That all being said, however again, as a whole, I really liked His Accidental Shamrock Omega, loved Lucky and Kellan, and, could-not-get-enough of the three little munchkins as their brightness was as bright as the sun on a cloudy day.  I loved it! :)

Title - His Accidental Shamrock Omega (Omega Holidays #3)
Author - Ava Beringer
Genre - MM Romance, Omegaverse
Published - May 2021
Pages - 235 Pages

Summary - Lucky is down on his luck, he's living in a homeless shelter with his 2 kids and he's pregnant. His Alpha kicked him out and has now reported him for abuse to his children something which he would never do. Scared and alone he runs away taking his kids with him, with very little money and nowhere to go Lucky ends up at a mall, where he and his kids end up sleeping and having to steal food to survive. This is where Lucky meets Alpha Kellen Murphy who's first words to Lucky are "Will you marry me" Kellen may just be the perfect alpha for Lucky but he's been burned too many times in the past can he let his guard down and trust Kellan. What will happen when Kellan finds out the thief he's looking for in the mall is the one man he's trying to win over?

What I thought about this book - I really enjoyed this book, I loved Kellen I thought he was such a genuine loveable character and so perfect for Lucky and his kids. I felt so sorry for Lucky he really wasn't living up to his name. This book was wonderfully written and nothing like any of the other Omegaverse stories I have read before. I really unique take on the Alpha/Omega stories. Great characters and a great story. I haven't read the other books in this series but I now plan to go back and read the rest.

Would I Recommend - Yes

Would I Read Again/Continue The Series - Yes/Yes

Rating - 5*

This book was cute. The dialog was engaging, the characters were wonderful, and the situations believable.

Lucky/Liam is a larger omega with 2 boys, and is pregnant with his third. He's picked some poor excuses for Alphas and is in an Omega shelter when CPS shows up, investigating a false claim of abuse. He packs up his kids, with almost no money or possessions, and runs. He ends up at the Mall (free entertainment, right?) and ends up concocting a scheme to be able to sleep there since he can't afford any type of accommodation.

Kellan is a shorter Alpha with short-man syndrome, but in a positive way. He's strong, consistent, law abiding, mannerly, kind, protective... everything Lucky wants but has never experienced in an Alpha. He's also mall security.

The two meet and Kellan is immediately ready for a relationship. Lucky feels it, but his distrust of Alphas makes him resist the urge until the situation changes to where he can't resist any more. The two, apart and together, have some memorable challenges but still somehow find a way to their HEA.

It's a cute read. Don't expect anything super deep, but do expect a well-crafted story that will entertain you with some great characters, including some amazing kiddos, that will keep you laughing (and maybe crying a little) over the course of the read.

This book is amazing! It's funny, sweet and an absolute joy to read! Lucky is an omega down on his luck. He has two sons and another on the way and the children's fathers aren't helping him at all. When one makes false accusations to get out of paying support, Lucky finds himself and his boys on the run. He will end up at a local mall where he meets Officer Kellan Murphy and it will change everything. Kellan is immedately taken with Lucky, sure he's the one. He will spend every chance he can trying to get closer to Lucky and the boys. Hardship will have Lucky trying to survive in ways he never thought he'd need to but it isn't long until Kellan steps up to be the Alpha that Lucky needs. He will be there to help Lucky out of a sticky situation and it will lead to them both getting everything they ever wanted. Kellan gets love and a family and Lucky gets an Alpha he can finally trust and feel safe with.

Lucky finds his Luck

Lucky is pregnant with his third boy. Alpha rejects them and sicks Child Protective Services on him after he sued for child support and won. So Lucky and the boys are on run and having a rough time. He's not alone though because luck finds him in best way.

Kellen sees Lucky and boys on his rounds as security guard at mall one day. First words out mans mouth was literally marry me. Not hi or hello buy marry me which was so cute.

They started a friendship and that turned to more. Lucky was torn because of his situation. He was terrified too of what would happen. No place go living at mall having friends made get him food.

Kellen saved Lucky and the boys though. What he did was so wonderful and heartwarming. Literally crying was so happy. I might be reading in backwards order but don't care cause loved this 100 times more book 4.

Kellen was perfect with Bam Bam and Chunk. They became his kids too as did the new baby boy Deck. Excellent and this is on my need buy list now.

Keeping it positive for your kids, can be hard. Lucky, finds himself between a rock, a hard place, a mountain and quicksand with the world pressing down from the top. Officer Kellen Murphy, is a mall security officer waiting to reapply to the police academy. When he first meets Lucky, he was so tongue tied, the only thing out of his mouth is 'marry me',? Lucky and his boys are homeless, jobless and on the run from CPS. Desperate means take desperate measures. The circumstances, the problems, the solutions and the joy that is still found is amazing. The conversations between Lucky and Kellen were a hoot. The boys, Chunk and Bam Bam, are adorable. Does Kellan follow thrugh with the proposal? Does Lucky find a home? Their circumstances made me think of being compassionate and appreciating my Blessings. It takes a good author to tell a story and make the reader feel the emotions of the characters. Well done!

I put off reading this book and I am sorry I did. It was really humorous despite dealing with very serious situations. I think humor helps bring awareness while carrying the storyline. The characters are hilarious, uncertain, and memorable.

What would you do if you found yourself heavily pregnant and already the father of two very rambunctious boys aged four and seven? As well as being on the run from Child Protective Services? Where would you go with little money, no vehicle, and only having a backpack each? How would you survive?

What would you do when the food ran out? Were there any friends or family you could call on for assistance? Since you fled from the Omega Shelter you can't go back there. What do you do when an Alpha asks you to marry him? Do you laugh it off or seriously consider his proposal?

This is a very funny novel which answers all of these questions by showing how ingenious an Omega is at surviving and providing for his children.

Overall impression - sweet sweet sweet. Lucky is sweet, charming, tough and almost out of luck. Kellen Murphy is a mall security officer who dreams of being a real cop. These two meet at the mall of course and see each other across a crowded room - er, mall, and it's some enchanted evening all over again. Lucky has two rambunctious boys and another very much on the way. Murphy thinks Lucky is the most amazing person he's ever seen and wants him any way he can have him. Kellen Murphy is the alpha and Lucky is the omega and they are simply meant to be. There are many challenges to overcome before they ever have the slightest chance of connecting - including Lucky and the boys being homeless and hiding out in a department store to sleep in Murphy's mall. Regardless, charming and super sweet there is a riotous happy ending to this sweet tale. ARC received and I chose to leave this review.

Another sweet tale in Primose Keep. The author as always brings a lot of humor and heart to this series and this was very entertaining. I absolutely enjoyed reading about Lucky, his sons and the wonderful alpha Kellen that came to his rescue. Kellen got his chance for happiness with Lucky and it was long time coming. Finally Lucky was able to trust again after being let down so many times from deadbeat alphas. And his kids...his kids Bam Bam and Chunk was delightful and will put a smile on your face with their shenanigans This was nicely paced and with a lovely slow burn to intimacy which was HOT...pregnancy hormones...LOL. We get our climax towards the end and you see why Primose Keep is a special place...really a feel good read with a wonderful ending...LOVED IT!.

Cute little read

Lucky is feeling far from his namesake right about now. On the run from wrongful charges with CPS, homeless, jobless, with two small children in tow and heavily pregnant with baby number three, he is desperate and at the end of his rope. Hiding out in the mall did mange to have one major perk, alpha mall security Kellen Murphy. Kellen knows what he wants and he wants this omega to be his, like yesterday. He embraces this ready made family and wants to make them all his. Slowly he manages to make them trust that he will be there for them and turn their luck around. Kellen may be shorter than your average alpha, but he has enough love and dependability to wrap around Lucky and his kids. This character was such a steadfast marshmallow of a man and poor Lucky was a major victim of circumstances. This is a sweet little story.

I enjoyed this sweet, instalove story about a down-on-his luck, pregnant omega father, and a lonely alpha who wants to be a hero, help others, and find an omega to start a family with. I really loved Kellen's character and how he stood up and did the right things to be a good alpha, especially accepting and loving Lucky's children by his prior alphas. I loved Lucky, too, and his determination and devotion to protect his children and keep his family together. I could really feel his desperation about how he would keep the kids fed, and where the family would sleep, all while trying to hide the direness of their situation from the children. There is some drama, lite angst, and lots of humor. I really loved the boys names - Bam Bam and Chunk. lol

If you want to laugh or you cry this is the story to read. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this story, I just loved the characters and storyline once again continued on with the omega house and the characters from previous stories. This is the story of Kellan Murphy the mall security officer who we were introduced to in the previous book His Accidental Valentines Omega. Kellan meets Lucky Moriarty in the mall play area and it is love at first sight. What follows is a comedy of living in the mall and a struggle to find somewhere to lay their heads. It was a great story and I can’t wait to read the next story in this series.There is a happily ever after.

A sweet and easy read, that made me smile from ear to ear. Lucky is NOT so lucky, hes literally lost everything. Parents, sibling, partners, job and home. Pregant with his third child, and being accused of mistreating one of his sons, so his Alpha ex doesnt have to pay child support.
On the run from CPS, he finds his forever in the form of unlucky in love Kellen.
Kel has only ever wanted to be a family man, and with one look at a stricken and heavily pregant omega, he may as well have birds flying outta his eyes. Despite everything that comes their way, Kel comes through for Lucky. An alpha that keeps his promises.

But I have to say, while Lucky is funny my favourite character is Bam bam. His one liners are just perfect.

Adorable yet mischievous kids!

Kellen is a mall cop. Even though he might be a little shorter than he'd like, he has a big heart and is ready for his forever mate and to build a family. Lucky has two boys from two different alpha holes. And a third one on the way. When he's accused of harming one of his kids, he runs with them to the mall. At first sight Kellen knows Lucky is his person, so his first words are Marry Me!

This story is such a sweet story to read. I loved the spunky kuds. Bam Bam and Chunk are rambunctious, very active kids who love their o dad. Kellen proves to be a strong, protective and loving alpha and Lucky is full of spunk in spite of what life has thrown him.

With every book it is clear Ms Beringer has a wonderful gift: She creates fluffy and sweet worlds in which every angst and difficulties disappeared because love and friendships. My heart bled because Lucky and his boys, so witnessing Kellen kindness and protectiveness towards them was cathartic for me and fair and well deserved for them. The way Lucky fought for his kids, and for a future as family was the best part of the story. After all the struggles, the amazing last chapters were perfect to enlighten my my day. I am sure I am going to be reading it and rereading it as a comfort book. Another wonderful love story full of heartwarming moments! Loved it!

I loved Lucky’s and Kellen’s story my heart went out to Lucky being in the situation that he was in he was pregnant with his third child and his two other boys were very mischievous. Lucky ran from the omega centre when the welfare came to take his kids he ended up at a mall where he meets Kellen, Kellen took one look at the pregnant omega and two words came to his mind mate and mine but things weren’t going to be easy for these two because Lucky doesn’t trust alphas. There is so much more going on in this story but I will let you find that out for yourself, fantastic story I enjoyed it immensely and I highly recommend this book.

This story was fun and sweet. Lucky doesn’t seem to have much luck on his side. He’s pregnant and homeless with his two young sons. And finally fates on his side when he meets Kellen Murphy a mall security guard. But Lucky is hiding a secret from him and when he finds out you see how much this alpha cares for Lucky and his two boys. Their story has a few bumps along the way but over all this is a pretty low angst super sweet and funny love story. The boys will crack you up and Lucky is a hoot! Another amazing love story in this great series.

Lucky, pregnant and with two sons, runs to stay together. With lousy choices in past alphas and CPS looking for them, courtesy of one of them, they end up staying at a nearby mall. Kellen, a mall cop, is a steadfast alpha who is instantly hooked on Lucky, but Lucky is scared of making more wrong choices. He is also investigating the mall thefts. These two have their ups and downs but their protectiveness and intense feelings win out. The storyline is heartwarming and the ending is perfect. Well done.

This book was so sweet and adorable. Ava Beringer did an awesome job with the storyline. I was hooked by it right away. 

Lucky is pregnant with two kids already, and is hiding out at Rosetown Mall. When Kellen sees Lucky for the first time it is an instant attraction for him, Lucky feels the same way. Can it mean that Kellen is his savior?  

His Accidental Shamrock Omega is the third book in the Omega Holidays Series. I look forward to going back and reading book one and two. I absolutely loved everything about this book.

We meet Lucky, a pregnant omega, and his family. Out of fear, he flees the Omega Center without a plan. With no stable home, no job, and a baby to be born any moment - his life is one bump after another. Despite hard choices, Lucky always finds a way.

Alpha Kellan works security at the local mall. He sees an omega and immediately becomes drawn to the family. In his heart, he's already claimed them. Now, how does he convince this omega.
Taking things one day at a time, Kellan won the heart of his claimed family. Even helping Lucky, obtain employment. A string of incidents at the mall, forces Kellan and Lucky together at a much faster pace.

From funny and snarky kids, to an alpha who is all heart. A generous roommate and a every optimistic omega. Let us not forget that childbirth scene - a perfect fit for this uniquely blended family story.

A fabulous surprise at the end.

I liked His Accidental Shamrock Omega. This story is about Lucky and Kellen. I also loved Lucky's kids, Bam Bam and Chunk. I liked how Kellen is a knight in shining armor and how smart Lucky was to stay at the mall when he was homeless with his two sons and heavily pregnant with his third. I loved that Lucky finally got an alpha worthy of him, who wanted to take care of him and pamper him and didn't care that he had two other kids and one on the way.

Imagine seeing someone for the first time and you go to talk to them to gauge interest, but the first words our of your mouth are "Marry Me". Kellen is a hopeless romantic and forever optimist and he finally gets to prove to the omega of his dreams that he can provide and protect.

Liam (Lucky) finally lives up to his name when it seems his luck has run out he finds the perfect Alpha when he finds himself at rock bottom with his 2 sons. Both of which get the Alpha parent they deserve instead of the ones they were born to.

This one is all romance!!

What a great story of a single omega Dad, Lucky, who finds himself and his sons homeless and on the run. They meet alpha, Kellan, who falls for them immediately. He's the most protective and loving alpha. Together they overcome some difficult situations and get their hea. Their love story just gave me the warmest most romantic feelings. I read the book in a few hours.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review. Although there was troubles relating to what his ex did, Lucky does find his true alpha in Kellen. I have to admire Kellen for taking on a ready made family but he fell hard for Lucky and his kids. When the problems are solved, Lucky and Kellen move very quickly with their relationship. With the help of the community, their growing family are able to make a great start together.

I was hooked from page 1. Lucky is a great parent who will do anything for his kids. The lengths he had to go through were sad to read about but he kept his humor the whole time. I definitely chuckled several times. I loved that the kids are mischievous but sweet at the same time. The fact that they weren’t perfect little angels made this so much better. I need to read the rest of this series. I’m now hooked!
