Coveted Prey #5

Bound to the Pack

Rate this book
An orphan, I live by the charity of my lord. Through me, the Goddess heals, yet I am treated like the lowest servant.

In the wake of an attack, a young beta hunter is mortally wounded. I lay with Eric to heal him upon the forest floor. Everyone saw. Now an alpha, a beta, and a shifter pack all have me in their sights.

And all the while, Petra, my lord’s spiteful daughter, despises me for taking a man she saw as her own.

Trapped in a life of drudgery and cruelty, my only hope is to take a mate to escape Petra’s tyrannical rule before her jealousy takes a deadly turn. But why would her lord father let such a valuable asset leave?

I may be at the mercy of their whims now, but I have allies waiting in the dark, waiting to make their move and claim me as theirs.

The only question is who?

And will they be too late?


Bound to the Pack is a spicy reverse harem, including MM, with classic omegaverse meets shifters in a fantasy setting.

Brief thoughts on this RH with 8 guys (some shifters, some human).

-This story includes lite MM and lots of sharing/watching.

-The switching back and forth between timelines and characters was confusing.

-I don't know how her vagina wasn't completely destroyed, maybe it was magical.

-I think Adam was a jerk, knowing her since childhood and never protecting her from his bully of a sister.

-If you read this strictly for the copious steamy scenes, and light character development, it's good filthy, cheesy fun.

I'm sorry - 8 men and 6 of them have a beast form???? Moment of silence for this woman's dedication to the cause (of getting that dick) 😩✊️

Also her human mates should literally go fuck off in a creek. They deserved to have their mate cards revoked. I read these books for the obligatory protection and obsessive care not for some little dicked wombats who let the FML get beat for like 15 years.

Woah there is always a lot of sex with these books, but I think this one topped them all. I’m surprised her lady bits didn’t fall off with as much sex as she got. Darn insatiable! The mix of the Wolves and humans was kinda strange to me. The wolves were much hotter!

The story of Fern, a latent Omega and her eight mates is hot as can be and reading about how all eight comes about to be very exciting. Poor Fern starts off living in the household of Lord Rupert, but her role there is as a servant. Rupert's daughter Petra is a mean, spiteful witch with a B, to Fern and abuses her terribly while her father does nothing about it.After she heals Emeric and joins with him physically, it proves she is a powerful healer. Little by little her protectors aka mates come to help and remove her. When there are finally eight of her mates/pack, they can finally trigger her heat. Adam and Tavion are high on the alpha mates scale, but she still gets Emeric, CasperJudson, Jay, River and Dawson to help out 😘 We get a lovely HEA that made me so happy for Fern and her 8-pack of mates.

Notes and warnings:
Eight man harem, including half-shift knotting during heat by some of her harem. (If you have read Taken you will know what to expect)
MM content. If that is not your thing, please avoid. There are several MM scenes.

This is an amazing RH omegaverse and standalone addition to the Coveted Prey series. Fern is a complex and well written character. It was easy to emphasize and feel her pain. This is a very well written large,8 member, harem, no man was overshadowed. There is plenty of sizzling heat and a greatbstoryline.

So freaking hot, steamy, down & dirty! Yum. One omega plus eight mates - six of whom are wolf shifters - make for a very sexy adventure with lots of action, knotting, shifting, heats, knotting. Fern and her mates literally come together to escape the humans, the wolves, and even orcs to reach their HEA.

DNF at 30%. I tried to like this book but sadly I was not able to finish it. The beginning was fine, but then it became very confusing and weird. I get what the writer is trying to show us but unfortunately the writing is just not very good in my opinion. It might just be this book, I will try to read more books by this author to see if I do like her other stories.

What made me quit reading this book? The heroine is a healer. Somewhere in the beginning of the story Emeric gets hurt and the heroine has to heal him. He is supposedly dying but she is able to heal him. How did she do this? She was brought to the hero, saw him lying on the ground. Normally she would heal others with a kiss on their forehead (or something?!) but because it’s Emeric she kisses him on the lips?! They are making out and suddenly OUT OF NOWHERE they are having intercourse on the forest floor with a group of people watching them? She healed him by having him (he, who was dying just one minute before she arrived) fuck her. That’s not strange at all.. right?

One of the main characters, Adam, is the brother of Petra. Adam and Petra are the son and daughter of the lord. Petra bullies Fern out of jealousy. Adam has feelings for Fern and while he says that he can’t always stand his sister, he still let’s his sister and father (father allows it to happen) bully Fern. Adam, is supposed to be a ‘real alpha’ who knows about some of the things that Petra does to Fern but he cannot ‘interfere’ or help Fern simply because he is WEAK. Adam not only let Fern down, he let me down.

There are also a lot of different POV’s which makes it very hard to understand and follow the story. I felt no connection with the main characters. It’s a bummer that I did not like this story as much as I hoped I would, the premise ticked off all the right boxes for me.

But in the end, everyone has different likes and dislikes, and so do you and I. If you still think that you might like this book, read some nice reviews and are still curious, why not give this book a try? Maybe you’ll like it more than I did.

Another GREAT book in this series!
This is a RH book that does contain MM as this is a world where being with males is just as normal as being with females at the same time. I guess we can say that being bisexual is totally the norm for most of the males in this series which is always a favourite theme of mine, as I really love the standpoint of sexual exploration and how normal this is. I wish our own world was just as forgiving here in those regards. <3

Bound to the Pack is the 10th book in the series, and it is stand-alone, so you don't need to have read all the other books, however, we do meet up with some previous characters from other books, so that is always a bonus! I love an interactive world with lots of cameos from other books. :D

The title of the book describes the situation quite well, as they are indeed a pack, and the pack just grows - which was also wonderful. :D

I love the Alpha testosterone, but also this is a vastly more light Omegaverse universe, so our Alphas are kind, even though they are def. Alphas. We also have Betas here and Omegas, so a complete Omegaverse universe with heats, knotting and nesting. :D

Even though the book has a good amount of smut in it - it does also have a great storyline, and it introduces more char that I think will get their own book(s). There are def. things happening where we only see it from one perspective, and I hope we get to see it from a different one in another book. :D

This is a huge universe and L.V.Lane has done an incredible job. Not that I ever doubted her, because original world-building is one of her strong sides, along with her great smut scenes and storytelling.

This whole series is just "French Kiss" for me and I really recommend it.

5 superstars!!

Alphas everywhere you turn

I loved this book! It has everything you could want in it. Hang on to your seat because it's a wild ride. Fern is a latent omega. Once she presents it's time to find an alpha mate(s). Poor Fern Petra is a bitch and made Fern's life a living hell. Can she escape? Some wolves assist her in getting away. She might even find a mate in pack. There is lots of loving going on. Some of it can be rough, so be warned if this is a trigger for you this book is not. I would say this is one of the best books Liv has written, not saying the other books are bad, Liv doesn't know how to write a bad story. I highly recommend this book!

Bound to the pack has it all. Fern is our heroine, orphaned and treated poorly by the family that took her in. Petra, the daughter of the master of the house, in particular delights in tormenting and torturing Fern. But Fern is resilient and goddess blessed as a healer, and without realising it has garnered the attention of the son of the leader of a local Shifter pack, along with Adam the 2nd son of the house and Emric a hunter. After a series of bear Shifter attacks lead Fern to heal Emric in a heated fashion, everything ramps up until Fern finds herself bound to the pack, along with Adam and Emric too. There is betrayal, orcs, violence and lots of heat, passion and love. Contains m/m. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this, it ticked all the boxes.

Umm, wow. That was so freaking amazing. The first chapter had me so angry. Petra is the absolute worst. This book was set at such a great pace, there was constantly some sort of drama. Adam kinda upsets me. He knew what was going on but didn’t get involved until he felt like someone else was encroaching on his territory. It kinda put me off him this whole book. This book was so hot from beginning to end. I got to say, Fern is a thirsty little girl and I love it.

This book blew my mind and I loved it. I really enjoyed getting to meet all of the guys and get to see all of their individual relationships with Fern. I really wish that this book had been longer because I did not want to say goodbye to these characters. I can't wait to read about Ashe in the future.

5/5 ⭐ 5/5 🔥

Wow. Eight mates?? Unbelievable. I love that it doesn’t feel like too many, thanks to LV Lane’s phenomenal writing. The story is intriguing and well-crafted. It definitely was a page-turner! I stayed up too late many nights reading this book. The spicy scenes are perfectly hot and rev you’re engine just enough. Five stars for another masterpiece by LV Lane!

Fern and her 8 mates…

L.V. Lane does a fantastic job with world building in this 10th book of the Coveted Prey series.
Fern is a latent omega and her gift is healing. She is an orphan at the mercy of a clueless Lord. She is physically and mentally abused by the lords daughter Petra who is extremely jealous of Fern. Fern being a healer was brought a hunter named Emeric who has been gravely injured, she needs to heal him not only because she cares for him but he is important. He has always been friendly to Fern which makes Petra’s jealousy volatile. Fern rushes to him and gives him a kiss of healing that actually turns into more, in a healing frenzy Emeric takes Ferns virginity in front of many others, most will become her mates, her clan and protectors.
This will start the story of how this 8 man clan begins.
You will see danger, betrayal, love and a HFN in this creative journey.

I really enjoyed reading this book. IT moves along at a great pace which made for an enjoyable read. The characters are awesome and no matter what happens you want to be there for them. By the time you are done you are loving them. This book needs to be read, you will not be sorry that you did.

Filthiest fun yet

If your like me, Ms. Lane holds a special place on your Kindle bookshelf. I have been not only an avid fan, but have enjoyed being an ARC reviewer for her. The lady has a great mind for the Omegaverse.

Now with this loosely based series arc, the author has been able to bring about many multidimensional changes not only to the world of the characters by adding new worlds, but by adding new types of characters. She's expanded realms in her world-building and really extended the life of the series. It's a great world to explore. By changing it up and exploring other races was genius . . . And hot.

This book definitely pushes boundaries that the author hadn't explored before. Two or three mates, sure. Four mates, I think a couple is times she wrote about; but never 8 mates!! Never MM scenes that I can remember. Never a DP scene that is so hot, I was surprised my Kindle wasn't smoking 🔥. All I can say is that as this series goes on, each book gets progressively hotter and hotter 😮😲😳🤯💥

Sorry... I was excited about the idea of this book but it fell flat for me.

The FMC bothered me and so many of the male characters were too whiny for me. Call it possessive and dominating but it just felt like insecurity and whining for me.

The sex wasn't bad but considering that it is most of the book you would expect it to be a lot better.

The world building left me confuse. Sometimes I couldn't understand when they were human, beasts or wolves and I couldn't even the understand the difference between a beast and a wolf

Beastly cock...lol...made me snicker each time. So this was interesting. 8 mates are a bit much for me though. I didn't get a chance to really get to know all of them. Adam was the main/head alpha and he is actually the one I liked the least for some reason. Lots of sex, some storyline, and some beastly cock 😆

Alright first things first...

This is a LV LANE BOOK. THIS IS... THIS IS...

*chefs kiss*

AND YET IT IS MORE! IT IS MORE THAN I EVEN EXPECTED!

LV has set a bar, and it is so high, and then she just gracefully flew right over the bar without even noticing that one was set for her.

Like, she did it again. And it was... a ride. A RIDE.

Anyway, into the meat of it!

All of the men in this are so different. I was somewhat hesitant at first, when I saw how many were involved in this one that they would blend together, but all of them have their own goals and nuances. The ties to the other books as well, they were wonderful and unexpected. I love how this universe has been built, and it's like greeting an old friend... and now has me rereading a few of them because I need to go visit the old friends more.

ALSO, lowkey spoiler, but I was waiting for the naughty omega to show up, as you know, is a thing in these books, and uhhh.... the second it was pointed out that some people wouldn't be able to handle a needy omega in need without uhh... help... because handling her... AND THEN THEY COULDN'T.

I laughed. It was not a good point in the plot to laugh, but I laughed.

THEY DIDNT EVEN TRY.

This was yet another beautiful LV Lane Fantasy Omegaverse novel, and wow, how can each new book be a favorite? 5/5 gave me the serotonin sparked joy would read again.

This is a stellar addition to LV Lane's Coveted Prey series, but can definitely be read as a stand-alone. We meet Fern, a healer living under the guardianship of Lorde, and one who is terribly mistreated by the daughter of the keep.
She draws the attention of a number of suitors, and this is the story of how she not only finds her place, but her power.
I loved Fern and her pack. There are a LOT of love interests in here (more than four), so if that's not your mo-jo, then don't pick up this book.
However, if it piques your interest, I would definitely recommend that you give this book a chance. The story is engaging, Fern is absolutely beautifully written, and the men (while there are a lot of them) each have their own personalities. The book is written with multiple point of view, which makes easier to differentiate between the suitors. I loved the pack dynamic, and how those outside of the original pack, found their own space within it. I also loved that we had a chance to see some of the characters from the previous books. If you haven't read them, fear not, as it won't impact your enjoyment of the story.
For those who love the alpha/omega dynamics, shifters, and RH, this is definitely the book or you.

This was LV lane’s spiciest book yet. Fern is a beta servant for an awful mistress when she is discovered to actually be a latent omega. This book is filled with warring kingdoms, shifters, and orcs. Fern is trying to adjust to being an omega, being attracted to 8 different men, and learning all about pack politics at once. The action and spice are constant throughout leading to a fun story. I do wish we got more development of Fern’s relationship with each man individually. Having these many mates and only having one book makes it hard to really get to know each one. We did get some interesting interactions between the pack and the humans that are all of Fern’s mates. There was MM and partially shifted scenes that were a nice addition. If you are looking for a lot of spice I definitely recommend this book.

as given this book as an ARC and goodness did I love it!
Fern is a young orphan who lives at a castle under the good will of it’s lord Rupert however his daughter Petra is extremely cruel and jealous and takes pleasure in causing Ferns pain especially it seems to humiliate her in front of the men of the keep.
This is a very good book the only reason I give it four stars is the relationship building this is L.V Lanes first really big harem and it’s slightly obvious there is more attention given to Tavion, Emric, Adam and Casper than others not that the other men don’t get enough love I just wish there was more.
I absolutely loved the interconnecting of stories from her other books I’m a geek for that kind of thing and this is no exception! Overall this book is a lovely dive into a bigger harem and woowee is it steamy obviously with eight mates it would be! I can’t wait to read more.

This is another wonderful story by Liv Lane set in the coveted prey world. I wasn't sure how she would manage to integrate 8 males into a reverse harem, but as always she pulled it off. From the start of the story Fern was a character that made me feel her pain, and later I felt all her pleasure too. I enjoyed reading of her journey to being the coveted omega of this wolf pack, along with a couple of additional non shifter mates that manage to blend together. Of course this doesn't happen instantly, and that is half the fun of this story. I love omega verse, and this author consistently manages to include all the usual facets of that world that keep me reading late into the night. If you like reverse harem or omega verse this book is a perfect read to keep things steamy on the way to a HEA.

I love this author and series. She just knows how to write a story that I want to devour. And her books are not short.

In this book Fern is an orphan that can heal thru the Goddess. But even with this gift she is treated very poorly because she lives thru the charity of another family. And the only daughter of that family treats Fern the worst of all. But Fern is a survivor. She keeps soldiering on. But one day she gets hurt worse then any other and when the local wolf pack finds out they take her away because they have wanted Fern for a long time as well.

I like how the story progresses, Fern finding out she isn't a beta and even how she gets all 8 of her mates. Which 2 of them aren't originally pack. And I also loved how she connects the story with some previously books in the series.
