Omega Love #2
Party Girl: How a Naughty Omega Finds Love
It’s a universally known fact that omegas don’t party.
Well, most omegas don’t.
The night before I was set to be matched at the Compatibility Ceremony, I went out to party. I didn’t care that I might get in trouble because I didn’t want to waste my last night of freedom being what everyone expected me to good.
Everything was fine… Until it wasn’t. The authorities showed up and I got arrested just as my high hit. To make matters worse, I got banned from finding my match and was sent to the Omega Auctions.
A horrible pack takes me in, but their enemies have other plans for me. The enemy of my enemy is my friend, unless they’re the cops who arrested me.
Will I be able to escape the pack that ruined my life or will I fall hard?
This is a standalone reverse harem romance with swoon-worthy heroes and a heroine who has a knack for breaking rules.

spoilers 1.5 stars
I want to justify my rating. It was really hard to score it so low because the reality is that it has so much potential. The follow through wasn’t there it was missing something. I feel like the author rushed through the book to put it out and it’s not a fully polished and well hashed out story.
I feel like I’m going to lay my blame on the alpha and beta readers as well as proof readers- basically anyone tied up into this author’s editing team gets a big 0 star- again this book had complete potential but there were a ton of plot holes and they should’ve been caught.
Subjectively I didn’t care for the fmc and male characters, it didn’t feel like they meshed well or that there was chemistry. I almost DNF due to this. I just didn’t feel engaged within the first 3 chapters and I had to push through this, I don’t know how to explain it because the first book rated so high.
Spoilers:
I felt like there were a lot of inconsistencies- especially with the characters mostly the fmc. She doesn’t make a ton of sense. She is physically abused as a child by her mother, she has a love for her grandmother who she finds out knew something wasn’t right but never delved further. It was apparent that something was wrong but for some reason it’s not till the end where the fmc realizes that dear old granny knew that something wasn’t right but didn’t investigate any more than to ask her if she’s ok. And for some reason that pissed off the fmc. Why was it at that point she’s mad? Her granny asked what was wrong and if she was ok multiple times, so in the back of her mind that shouldn’t have come as a shock to the fmc, that means she knew something wasn’t right- but it didn’t click until then? The big reveal was a let down. Her granny didn’t really know and was led to believe that it dealt with school bullying. The fmc is pushing culpability. Her granny’s safety deposit box held a letter, deed, and all of her “earthy possessions”. It says that the fmc trashed it all and “never looked back” yet later on it says she sold everything and blah blah blah. So it wasn’t thrown away?
Other plot holes/ inconsistencies:
it didn’t make sense that there was such a big deal of mating the beta. The whole backstory that beta mating resulted in legal issues was a not well thought out conflict, when the beta was part of an alpha pack already, technically if she mates him she’d be part of the pack, mated to the pack (bc omegas need an alpha knot) there was so much emphasis on how they could get into trouble if she mated the beta (even though the alphas were really interested in her) would she not fall under that protection?
She shoots Curtis with a shot gun - in close enough proximity and in the gut. There’s no way if it was that close he would’ve been able to get away/flee the scene, she also injures one of the two henchmen he showed up with. It didn’t make sense that the guy who was unharmed would go after her when his boss and sidekick were shot and injured he would’ve needed to help flee the scene- on top of it they (her and avi) knocked him out and they thought that acting like they picked him up off the street wouldn’t leave a ton of questions, or that if he did wake up he wouldn’t talk or elude to the situation or have any questioning. It just feels like a loose end- and then you find out that Curtis died from the wounds in a random building and it’s chalked up to a deal gone wrong. This was the impetus to her staying with the guys, that she’d be in hiding and it just feels so anti climatic. It was a complete afterthought.
In fact there were so many conflicts or what should’ve been peak points that made a big deal that it was hard to keep up and then it felt so anticlimactic when the time came up: the whole curtis situation, her bonding/experience (she tried to leave and got caught and decided to agree to stay and she was bit and then made a pack member), her mother finding her, the council investigating the male pack members, the omega head female person that tried to shun her. When the time came to hash it out it was lackluster and felt like afterthoughts.
I didn’t understand how the mother found the fmc. Her best friend told her mom she was sold but had no other info except to who. Her best friend didn’t know who she was with or where she was, every-time she got close to telling her (like the million times she tried running away) , the friend would hang up.
It’s hard to mesh the fmc as someone who is so traumatized from abuse, she’s easily spooked, trying to please everyone, apologizing a lot, to her high level feistiness and spontaneity, someone who has a bunch of physical triggers but is willing to get drunk and hook up with randoms it doesn’t fit. Someone that damaged and sheltered would not act like that unless they were in recovery and had therapy long enough to heal that part of themself to gain that “feisty edge” and we know she didn’t receive real trauma care. That in itself was the biggest plot hole.

There were some moments that were entertaining but there was a lot that ruined it for me. Why do these grown men have no decorations in their house or even a headboard? That just threw me off but there were a lot more valid (in some people’s opinion) reasons why I didn’t like this book.
A lot of things just happened. If felt like the author just wanted something done but didn’t want to bother with it fitting into the story so it’s just thrown in. Like one of their biggest concerns for 75% of the book is resolved by an ‘oh yeah that problems gone now’ sentence like it’s no big deal. Also, her mom just shows up to the guys’ house? How did she find it? No one knew she was there and they never tell us how she could have found it either. They also never try to come up with a plan on how being with her will work. She already “belongs” to another alpha, she’s in hiding from the Omega Council, and betas aren’t allowed to bond with omegas (which one of her guys is). They just do whatever they want and hope for the best I guess. I also don’t understand how everyone is fine with how omegas are treated. Even the guys seem like it’s fine to let the FMC be auctioned off to shady people.
Everything was too intense too quickly. It’s her second time meeting one of the guys and she’s already trying to figure out hiss deeper feelings for him. I’m quickly learning one of the biggest things that’ll turn me away from a book is when the characters don’t act naturally. They don’t act or say things that normal people would actually say. If you’re speaking to some powerful woman offering you a job your response wouldn’t be “huh?”. There were a lot of these moments, especially in the dialog that just felt awkward. There were also some inconsistencies with the FMC’s character that really left me confused on who she’s supposed to be.
I read the first book a while ago so I thought I would give this one a shot but I’m learning this author just might not be for me. But if you liked the first book, this one is on par with it. I had the same issues with it but I also liked the same parts so give it a go!

While all the open plot threads were tied up by the end of the novel and Reagan and some of her men from Knot for Me made a short cameo, I found the FMC Whitney rather weak and the character development of all the men in her harem rather shallow. Hayden the beta definitely got most of the screen time, and we got to meet Asher's parents, but everyone else's family was barely described other than some minor mentions of sympathetic parental abuse. Even the personalities were rather wishy-washy - Asher had seemed like such a dominant alpha when he first met Whitney in the club, but it quickly changed, and he faded into the background as the story continued.
The speed of the relationship development was hard to believe. Other than some minor grumpiness from Trev, none of the other 3 men really had an issue and instantly fell in love with Whitney without much depth. The pack and mating bites were rather impetuous during a random scene and during her heat - I had expected some more serious discussions before either with the whole group before they accepted her and she accepted them. Even by the end, I don't think the men were truly aware what her triggers were and why she had them - I would have thought with a deep relationship, this would be something that would be honestly discussed.
I didn't like how Granny's legacy was spoiled with the twist at the very end - it would have been nice to have thought that Whitney had at least one person who was always in her corner throughout her life. I also found some major features in omegaverse missing, like purring and alpha barks, or at least I had thought it would play a larger role in the world. I read the first book in the series too long ago that I can't remember if those had played a significant feature in the story line.
I also had a general issue with this omegaverse world, although it seems to have been turned on its head after Reagan and her pack took over. The society of high and low packs seemed to be rather apathetic to the abuses of omegas with the auctions and slavery, and I didn't get the motivation of the evil Camila to imprison and shun naughty omegas instead of trying to sell them again to other packs. If omegas didn't have rights, why discard them instead of getting more financial benefit from enslaving them again? meh.
I'll likely continue to check out the next book in the world out of curiosity, but I'm finding the books rather mediocre so far.

I hope Ms. Miles keeps writing these contemporary RH omegaverse books because I’m really enjoying this series! Whitney is a sweeter and more uncertain FMC than Reagan from book 1, but she still has plenty of feisty moments. Sadly she’s dealing with an abusive past and the challenges keep coming. She wants connection with others but hasn’t experienced much positive or long lasting ones. Thankfully, after an awful couple of days, she is brought under the protective wing of a pack of 3 alphas and a beta (3 of whom are police officers, which I loved) who help her, earn her trust, and show her love. Because of how they’re brought together and society rules, their potential relationship isn’t exactly endorsed, making them have to hide and decide what they want. There are some suspenseful elements and trigger warnings to mind, but plenty of humor, romance, and steam as well. No ow/om drama, none of the main characters are virgins, and bc is discussed. Looking forward to what May come in this world next as changes are hinted at in the epilogue (which was great).

So this first completed read of 2025 was kinda boring. It got better about 1/2 way through the book. I can’t really think about anything else to say about it 🤷

I genuinely enjoyed this book.
There were a few parts where I craved more detail, but overall I genuinely enjoyed jumping back into Rory Miles' omegaverse. (I also really loved getting to see Reagan again).
One thing I really liked about this was seeing how this Omegavers' political structure effected a different group. Because you know in Knot for Me, Pack Bullet was a royal pack, so seeing the structure on this side and how complex it kind of is was so much fun to see.
The pack is amazing, the guys are hot and actual perfection, Whitney had me sobbing...I can not wait for the next book in this world.

Very disappointed with this book having loved the first in the series. Whitney had trauma, I get that, but she was bitchy and moody the entire book. She was prudish, no sense of humour and I couldn't see what her Alpha's and beta saw in her. The angst was over the top painful and the conversations were dull and boring. I didn't feel any connections at all. She needed good therapy before having a pack. I loved the first book, but this book felt like it was written by a completely different person.
**********Spoiler**********
Also, how on earth if someone is shot in the stomach and shoulder with a shotgun would they get up and run away?(When Whitney shot Curtis and his henchman)

This book destroyed me in the best possible way. Whitney is a fabulous character, with depth and flaws and struggles. She has dealt with the trauma of her childhood in the only way she knows how, but it’s not sustainable. She’s lonely and afraid of putting herself out there. She feels like a burden, because that’s how she’s been made to feel for most of her life, by the same person who should have loved and cherished her. I relate a lot to Whitney’s circumstances. She suffers from CPTSD, and so do I. The author does a wonderful job of bringing the symptoms of PTSD off of the page. Part of the story were hard to read because of my own experiences, but the TW helped me to feel prepared to handle it. I’m so glad that I did because there is something therapeutic about watching a character overcome those same obstacles to live their best life. The entire story overall is a masterpiece of thrills, suspense, drama, and angst. There is plenty of spice - those alphas (and a sexy AF beta) are 🥵🥵🥵 and Whitney has a certain sparkle about her that just draws the reader in. I absolutely adore this story! There is a bit of overlap with Knot For Me (another omegaverse by the same author) and we get to see familiar faces, but this can still be read as a standalone.

I didn’t like this book as much as the first book in the series but it’s still an enjoyable omega verse book.

My heart!!!
Whitney had such a terrible home life. Seeing her have flashbacks and then having to interact with her mom was absolutely horrible. It reminded me briefly of my own traumas and solidified my decision to cut ties. I love when reading feels real like that. I loved her boys! Avi and Trev especially. I’ve really enjoyed this series so far and I’m sad I only have one left!

Great read
This was a great palate cleanser that had me invested from start to finish. I loved the characters and enjoyed the storyline a lot. Definitely check out the audiobook, because the Bordeaux did a great job giving these characters a voice

This book was an emotional rollercoaster. Whitney goes through soo much in this book. Love her and her pack. Lots of steam and a great plot.

Mmmm…I’m normally a fan of Rory but this one just missed the mark for me.
I think I’m a little blood thirsty and anything but a juicy gory revenge just doesn’t do it for me anymore 🥴
I was left sooooo unsatisfied with the endings of the big bads in this one.

I really enjoyed this book, the twists, the suspense - the journey this story takes you on is fantastic- was was so intrigued by it that I honestly couldn’t put it down until the very last word.
Whitney is an interesting omega stuck in a society that doesn’t see her value all because she is low bred. Love the crazy stuff she gets up to and the hot AF pack.
The ups and downs in this book are fantastic, I can honestly say I haven’t read too many omega books. I found it all very interesting - This book has really peaked my interest in this genre.
Overall a great book, full of action and mischief

Oh i just thoroughly enjoyed this! I think the character build for the MCs was wonderful and their connection with Whitney was raw, deep and i absolutely loved all the highs and lows they had.

Whitney is a bad omega. She’s never understood why she isn’t allowed to do the things that betas and alphas can—like party and sleep around. Luckily, she has a friend who gets her suppressants, so that for just a night she can pretend to be a beta and do just that. Unfortunately, she’s been caught previously and as she grows closer to her twenty-first birthday and her Compatibility Ceremony, she knows she has to be careful. When her grandmother dies, and she has to deal with her abusive mother the night before her ceremony, she decides it's worth taking a chance at being caught. She heads out to party and unfortunately for her, she’s caught. Sent to the Omega Auctions instead of the Compatibility Ceremony, she’s sold to a dangerous alpha. When said alpha is arrested, the beta officer who keeps popping up is there. She and Hayden are drawn to one another—though any relationship between them is against the law. But still, he takes her home to his pack to keep her safe. The alphas of his pack are also police officers, but will they allow her to stay?
Wow. Just wow. Rory has put out TWO omegaverse books that have blown me away. I adore this series about misbehaving omegas. I love it when characters break the mold, and Whitney does just that. She hasn’t had an easy life and doesn’t expect good things. As is often the case with omegaverse books, there is a lot of instant attraction—even if some of the characters fight it. Each of the men have a very different relationship with Whitney, but I think my favorite is the one between Whitney and Hayden—which probably has something to do with the forbidden aspect. This book happens concurrently with the first book in the series, Knot For Me, and we even see a familiar character or two. I loved the tie in with the first book, but even on its own, this book is freaking amazing. I can’t wait to read more in this world.

Omegas don't party. Omegas stay pure. They wait for their Compatibility Ceremony to be matched with their pack. But that's not Whitney. Coming from a lower class pack she doesn't have high expectations, only knowing it will be better than the abusive home she grew up in. Until she's matched, however, she wants to have some fun. So she does until it goes so very wrong. An arrest leads her to the auction floor instead of the Compatibility Ceremony, and her buyer is not a good man. Luckily, she's not a good Omega.
I enjoyed this book. It's entertaining but it does have some definite plot inconsistencies. I chose to not get hung up on them and simply enjoy the newness of a middle-class pack. I love the wealth of the typical pack but it was a nice change. It also followed up beautifully on the political struggles of the first book from a different viewpoint. The lack of power was a new dynamic. I liked all of the characters and appreciated the way the past traumas were addressed. I didn't think the connections/chemistry were as strong as some Omega/Packs but they did strengthen over the book. I felt like it was a bit rushed at the end. I would have liked to have followed up with her budding friendship with Maddy, and gotten some closure with Whitney's mom and even more her "best friend" Lindsey. Finally, I was disappointed in the final scene regarding Granny. Misplaced anger. I think it could have benefitted from a little more polish.

It’s a really good story. The characters are all fully fleshed out and interesting with their own faults and assets and it furthers the world building from the first book, but it’s not exactly my cuppa.
The author handles telling a story about a traumatized character very well! There’s no complaint there.
According to this book lower packs were created when a single beta tupped an omega and produced and Alpha. Just one. And now they outnumber the Royal Alphas. … okay. Unrealistic and very bible adjacent, but…. Okay.
Why there aren’t lower pack amenities to keep the segregation between the upper and lower ‘classes’ is beyond me. Yeah okay it could be argued that the Royal Council wouldn’t condone it, and definitely the Big Bad Omega Lady would feasibly crush any attempt to take a piece if her pie, but it feels unrealistic.
Also. What’s so bad about being shunned? Everyone seems to be so afraid of it to the point of tolerating death or rape or abuse and I am not seeing why it’s so bad. Living off of the land. That’s it? No evil monsters to be killed by, no post-apocalyptic style feral A/B/Os out there. Just. No longer part of a shitty society hurting its citizens because of their birth status. Okay. Got it.
But I am nitpicking at a series that is otherwise very good and emotionally fulfilling.

The feels in this one 😅
Whitney is doing everything she can to escape her past trauma which leads her into some dodgy situations….it does not help she’s classed as low pack and the lead of the Omega Council is ready to wash her hands off this “degenerate” 😩
Whitney is simply not coping effectively with her trauma and it takes being arrested and meeting the Cocker Pack to start to come to terms with it!
There’s Hayden the beta who has more of a dominant alpha streak and is instantly possessive of her; Asher the cheeky chappy charming Whitney every step of the way; Avi who has his own significant trauma to deal with but the relationship with Whit brings each other back from the edges; then there’s Trev their lead alpha who denies what he wants every step of the way creating more misunderstandings than necessary but when he does fall he goes hard! Each of those guys bring out different aspects of Whits character and despite the danger and deception to others they form real connections 🥰 and boy does it get hot especially as she constantly challenges their roles and positions within the force! Can they finally come together though to face the biggest threat the council pose to them?!

Sooo good!!
I love every book that Rory Miles puts out!! Love a complex mix of characters that are not always perfect and didn’t have the best of lives. Damaged people getting a HEA is 🤌🏽 (chef’s kiss) If you liked the first in the series, you will enjoy this book that runs concurrently with the first book!! It was sooo good. Great smexy times, all the dirty talking BETA goodness and smexy knotting by Alphas that you can handle.

Look, I’ve read enough omegaverse to be able to suspend disbelief and embrace any given author’s lore…. But this book’s universe was completely nonsensical. Maybe if the writing was half-way decent, I might have been intrigued by the plot like I was in the first book of the series, but not this time. Also, if you’re gonna make me read a 400+ page book, the smut better be good!!! (It wasn’t…)

The book is somewhat difficult to rate. It's not, that I didn't like it. I did. I could relate to Whitney at some level too. The guys were decent either.
It's just, that there are some things that bothered me and I couldn't really connect on some level. A reason may be, that I avoided reading this book at first.
I read 'Knot for Me' and I loved it, though I had many issues with that too. I may not remember all of it, since at the time when I finished it, my notes and reviews were less detailed. The review was kept spoiler-free, so I can't recall the whole plot. But I remember some bits. For example, Reagan annoyed me a lot, because she was self-sabotaging herself and I couldn't really understand the way she treated the guys. I'm not sure if I would rate the book the same way now, when I would read it again, either. But I remember, that I still loved it. Especially, with Camila getting what she deserves. But I can't really remember the world around them and what was mentioned in it. Just, that it wasn't a good place to be as an Omega.
Party Girl was announced. But, I couldn't read it directly after. But when I read the blurb, it did catch up to me, that the second book will be step back in time, and we are still in that terrible world setting, I wasn't keen to read it.
I did try to read the extract to test the waters. I just couldn't bring myself to read it, since Whitney seemed to have the same issues as Reagan. Denying herself happiness, self-sabotaging herself and so on.
It was just frustrating to me. So, I avoided reading it. Recently, I checked my list of Omegaverse books, and saw that I have a lot of older books on it, that I never read and avoided. And I decided to work on it. Rory Miles is still an author I remember quite well, and I had Party Girl on the list, and even the next books in the series, which are more interesting to me. But because I read strictly in order, I decided to push through reading Whitney's story.
As I said, there was a lot of the behavior I saw in Reagan. But she was still relatable and why she acted was explained. Better than in book one with Reagan, where her aversion was explained really late in the book. Whitney was full of trauma, and it was intense on the emotional side.
Still, I was more disconnected in some way. It's difficult to explain. As I said, I can understand her, since I have own trauma experiences in me and the topic was well-explained in the book, too.
A fact I have realized myself about trauma is, that even if the cause is different and you can't really compare it. Or say one trauma is worse than the other. In the end, the consequences of trauma and the impact it has on the person's life are similar. Flashbacks, self-hate, not feeling good enough, the helplessness… I know how it is, and that's something that will never be gone completely. Because trauma is a deep wound, that might be healed, but it is scarred skin and will never be the same. May it be internal or external. But it always leaves scars on your soul and mind.
And sure, you have to work through it in some way or the other. But the healing path is an individual one.
So, I truly understand what the author tries to portray. And with the acknowledgment at the end, it's even more emphasized.
And I'm truly sorry for Whitney. But I still couldn't really connect.
The story in general felt not really concluded to me. She never really confronted her mother, though I agree that sometimes you don't have to. Since she will probably not change at all. In general, it didn't make sense to me, why she hated Whitney and did what she did. Why she felt jealous of Whitney. And I will not understand, why the grandmother never asked or saved her.
Or why Whitney didn't want to have children. Don't get me wrong, I'm supportive of the decision, when a woman says she doesn't want children. Not everyone wants to be a parent. But the reasoning didn't feel good to me. Sure, I get why she is afraid. Parents, when they care, are always afraid to mess the child up. But just because your upbringing was bad, is not a good reason. It's avoidance in my opinion. So, it didn't feel solved. It's underlined for me with the scenes with the orphanage. I don't know why the author put it even in?
I would have liked it more, if she had met the children and tried to find out how she feels around them. And if had still feels like she doesn't want children, and had more reasons going than her trauma response, I would have said it is ok and solved.
But so it felt half-baked. And the Lindsey thing wasn't solved, either. I mean, she ratted her out.
And I have a huge problem with the spittle scene in the end. 🤢 Really, I don't kink shame anyone or anything. But that's made me want to puke. Logically, I know when you kiss and so on, you exchange it. But not in a huge amount.
So, the ending made me queasy.
Overall, I still enjoyed it. I would rate it between 3.5 to 4 stars. I go with 4 I think. It would be great if we could give half stars.

I really enjoyed the first in the Omega Love series but this one was even better!! While I don’t relate to everything about Whitney (the partying, drinking, or her horrible mother) there were SO many things that I *did* relate to — to see someone so broken and hurt get the love and support she deserves and come to realize she DOES deserve it… it was cathartic.
On that note, I really love the way this book handles mental health, especially PTSD/CPTSD. It was heartbreaking at times to listen to because of how relatable the pain and anxiety was (and how well the narrates portrayed it— major kudos to them) but it was also validating and really nice to see the representation. I especially liked that we got both PTSD *and* CPTSD, one from one of the MMCs and one from the FMC, and they were both treated as the debilitating and serious issue that they are without pitting the two disorders against each other. Avi’s PTSD was from his job, Whitney’s CPTSD was from lifelong abuse at the hand of her mother — both horrible things, both left mental scars, both require therapy, neither detracting from the other — and I really loved that Avi was IN therapy, encouraged Whitney to take her healing at her own pace, and as awful as it may sound I liked that we got to experience both of their PTSD-related meltdowns because no one ever goes there. Rory Miles went there and I appreciate that she didn’t shy away from the anxiety, pain, and physical symptoms that accompany it. I felt very seen.
I could go on about how good the mental health rep is all day but I don’t want to spoil any more than I already have. The pack is wonderful, I love the way she meets Hayden & Asher before everything, the way it takes a while for Trev to warm up but then they have such a strong connection. Avi is such a sweetheart. I enjoyed how playful Asher is and I loooved Hayden’s filthy mouth — idk what it is but give me a dirty-talking Beta that doesn’t cow down to alphas and I’m in love lol. The spicy stuff was amazing and very hot, but also really natural and fit with the story so well. I wanted a little more slice of life stuff but honestly the story is really well balanced. I didn’t want to stop listening.
While this one does mostly happen concurrently with the first book we do get to see a little more of what happens Post - Camilla & I’m eager to find out how the changes go with this world. Whether that’s from following more auctioned omegas or seeing how omegas match post-Camilla change, I don’t care. I’ve just really enjoyed the worldbuilding, writing, and characters.
Speaking of: Asher’s mom was an unexpected favorite supporting character, her rage room made me practically giddy lol. Seeing Reagan again made me happy too. And I hope we get more Maddie in the future 👀
Like I said the narrators did an amazing job with this one, I think both Jake & Bridget were on the top of their game this time. I really hope we get more done by them!

I enjoyed this book. While the PTSD in the book worked well with the issues, some of the remaining problems seemed contrived to be one problem after another just to extend the length of the book. Towards the end, it was to the point that I just wanted to flip to the end of the book and see how they wrapped things up. It was obvious that things would work out. I mean, heroes/heroine for goodness sake.
The description of the book didn’t quite fit the book, either. Yes, she was a party girl. She went out when she wasn’t supposed to. That happened twice in the portion of the book we got. Instead, we got death, we got two people who had PTSD, we got the constant trauma of the heroine’s upbringing, and the constant fear of being caught and what would happen to the pack Beta if they were. The pack beta issue also made no since to me since he was in a committed relationship with 3 alphas and an omega. It’s not as if it was a beta-omega relationship only as was described as an issue in the book.
I guess part of my issue with this book is that if you trust each other enough to form a pack bond, you should trust each other enough to stop keeping secrets…like my mother beat me and locked me in the cellar during her heat when I was a child. She never did tell anyone that her friend stored drugs in her couch. Drugs that would likely have tied the friend to the major drug dealer that bought the heroine at the Omega Auction.
The book was like a ball of yarn that left more than a few bits of string dangling at the end. The main part was resolved, who cares about the rest, right? I guess I do.

This book really gutted me with the strong emotions and past tramus that Whitney worked through.
Throughout the book we slowly learn about Whitney and what her mother has put her through and she is trying all she can to break free of the cycle she has lived in. She meets two members in the pack after breaking the laws that the Omega Council has set and one eventful night leads to her landing in trouble with the law and Omega Council. She is mistreated and lead to the auction and unlucky events unfold for Whitney.
Whitney is stronger than she knows this book shows how she learns to overcome her trauma but also how to love and be loved in return. At the same time we also get to see into the lives of Hayden, Avi, Asher and Trev and see how Whitney helps them in her own way. But this author always has to throw a wrench in things and when things finally seem like they are going to have a happy life we get hit with a whammy.
I absolutely loved this story and getting to see the Omega Council from another perspective and learn more about the low packs in this world that Rory Miles has created. This is a must read and be prepared to have your heart ripped out but sewn back together.
There is romance and hot, steamy scenes that will have you begging for more and if you haven't already, you need to grab this book!

"It's hard when they're so easy to break". That line early in the book stuck with me. There are so many rules for omegas and the lower packs, that is easy to break the rules. How must it weigh on people to live under that oppression, all because of who you were born to? We learned about this world in Reagan's book so we know how one sided the rules are and how treatment of people who aren't part of the ruling classes sucks.
Asher's mom reminds me a lot of Reagan's mom. She is sweet and funny, but she is fierce when it comes to her family and those she cares about. She quickly welcomes Whitney and sees more of Whitney's pain then Whitney would prefer.
Whitney is a blend of strong and damaged. She yearns to be loved and all she has gotten is pain and hatred. I think the only reason she wasn't completely broken was because of some of the love she received from her Granny. But even that wasn't enough when the whole truth is revealed.
I hated Trev at first, but I think he kind of grew on me. It was a toss up between Avi and Hayden for my ultimate favorite though. Asher had his moments and I like how he was always trying to lighten the mood. We all need that sometimes.
Loved this book. This author never disappoints. I've read everything she has put out. Would like to meet some more of these characters. Maybe Kiki? :)

It was OKAY I guess.
There were multiple errors concerning the uses of words like "were" vs "we're".
Like, a lot....
And there was no actual closure condom concerning her mother.
We also don't know what she was hired to do at the omega counsel...
Idk, it wasn't a HORRIBLE book, and I read it pretty quickly.
Idky some ppl had trouble getting past chapter three, it seemed fine to me..
Idk what it was that stopped me from connecting.
Maybe it was the kid issue. It made sense but didn't at the same time.
It's a fair feeling to not want kids because you're afraid to become me your mother, the villian, but idk. It didn't FEEL like it was resolved.
I think if maybe the author had written a pregnancy, or even an adoption into the story, it could have made it all come together more.
After all, most of us child abuse survivors understand what it is like becoming a parent after a life like that.
Also, I would have liked r r the author to better explain the mother's jealousy.
What caused it? From the way the story flows, the fathers never showed any interest in her kid so, why the jealousy?
Even MY "mother", thought she had a valid reason for her jealousy...So what was the character's mother's reason?
Anyway. It's an ok book. And I liked it enough that I didn't struggle to finish it.
