Rate this book
Marlow

In the beginning, I didn’t mind being an omega.

Until I was taken from my home. From my family and those I love.

The past seven years have been my worst nightmare.

The only good thing about being confined to this place is Zion and Raiden.

I don’t know if I will ever make it home.

Milo

Growing up with her and River, she was and still is my everything.

I know she is still alive. I can feel her.

She has been with me since that day she disappeared seven years ago.

Kai, our roommate has told us he will help us find her.

But what if we don't reach her in time? Will I ever be able to hold her in my arms again?

I am still processing with finishing part 1 of this duet. But I am so thankful on being a part of this process to KJ & TA. And when they both showed me the premise a few months ago, I knew I was going to fall in love with their first book 🥺💗💗

Going into this book, we have our main girl Marlow who is the beginning of starting her own pack with her alpha River & Milo, their omega. But then when it was Marlow’s 16th birthday, she got taken & kidnapped by this very bad guy/psycho dude and not the good kind either ☠️

We’re now back into the present 7 years later, where River, Milo & Marlow’s family are still devastated over the loss of Marlow. Back to Marlow, she’s been lab tested & experimented on by this dark crime organisation. And also cemented a bond with an alpha named Raiden & beta named Zion who are also in the same situation as Marlow.

Then we have River & Milo’s roomie named Kai who is actually a detective and told both River & Milo that he will helped find Marlow and get her back to them.

I would like to say more but that would take away the fun on finding on what happens 🫣

This book gave me some laughs, some steamy/blushing moments and heartache/cries I’m still recovering from.
I can’t wait for the next book and am anxiously waiting

ARC REVIEW

I was hooked from the first page! I made the mistake of starting this book at 1:30 am… couldn’t put it down!!!! Had to force myself to stop at 3:45 am because responsibilities… it’s was soooo good!!!! I love that the pack forms around Marlowe, that it wasn’t a pack fully formed from the start! I also really liked that they’re not super rich, more on the middle class side! As a first novel, I am super proud of the authors!!! I am very much looking forward to book two because MAJOR CLIFFHANGER!!!! Everything was going well for a while so I was waiting for the other shoe to drop and it never dropped when I was expecting it to! But boy did it drop!!! Most definitely recommend this book to every omegaverse fans out there!

This is book one in Marlow’s story and I’m so happy I got an ARC.

This story is about Marlow, an omega whose taken at a young age from her perspective alpha and one of her omegas. She’s held for years in captivity along with two of our other characters (an alpha and beta) before being rescued by a third delicious alpha and returned to her family mate(s).

This story had me hooked and although I felt like the relationships progressed a little quick it made sense with the foundation Marlow already had with 4/5 of them.

The cliffhanger has me dying for book 2! I’ll definitely be reading more by this baby author duo!

I’m a huge fan of omegaverse and I think these authors have found a way to add a unique storyline to a popular trope.

I am so invested in Marlow and her pack. Marlow is so strong for a FMC, her pack started off as 2 people an alpha and another omega, who never forgot her and never gave up on her. While in captivity she met a Beta and alpha who claimed her and made her feel alive again. Her alpha and omega got someone to finally help look for her, another alpha who fell in love with her as well. They found and saved marlow, Raiden and Zion. They then all proceed to try to heal and make a pack. I can not wait for the second book!

First omg I can’t wait for book 2!!! Omegaverse book will forever be a top pick for me and this book has just cemented that. I loved this unique plot line and thought all the characters were amazingly written especially the fmc Marlow. I loved the different dynamics in the pack and how the author built the different relationships throughout the book. The spice in the book was well written and all in all I’m so exited to read book 2.

Knot My Home was an entertaining omegaverse from two first-time authors. It shows that they have been long-time fans of the genre in how well they used the trope norms and then added their own flavors.

In their omegaverse, female omegas are rare. An unnamed organization is kidnapping omegas and running experiments to attempt breeding programs. The FMC in this story, Marlow, is one of the omegas they have abducted. Before being taken, she had mate bonded with another omega, Milo. They never got the chance to bond with their alpha, River. While at the facility, she bonds with a beta and his alpha. She was held for over seven years, in that time suffering extreme testing and forced heats.

I loved that Milo could still feel Marlow through their mating bond, so he never gave up hope that she could be found and rescued. He also becomes pretty possessive over her once she’s recovered, almost to the level of an alpha, which I thought was adorable. Can you say breeding kink batman?

I felt this story was trending more toward poly than why-choose territory, with the men mainly orbiting around Marlow and Milo. However, Marlow definitely does not need to choose and is very vocal about keeping the alpha who helped her survive the facility while still needing River, her first love. She makes the alphas reexamine what it means to be a pack.

Good level of steam. There are MM scenes as well as MMF and MMFM. There are also the usual OV elements: heats, knots, slick, scents, mating bites, and nesting. The nesting scenes are quite well done and sound utterly adorable.

Book one ends with a great cliffhanger. I cannot wait for the next book. This is the first in a duet, but there is potential for so much more from this universe once the duet is complete.

Marlowe story is just so amazing. This being the first book for these two authors and I was drawn i from day one. Being taken from her home when she turnt 16 she was held captive to help the people that took her breed more Omegas. While being held she meets Raiden and Zion. They are what keeps her from losing hope. She still feels the bond to Milo her Omega. She dreams of River her Alpha.

This story gives you all the feels and pulls you in as though you are in Marlowe shoes and can feel what she’s feeling. These authors picked the right amount of angst and love to make this story so believable and poignant. I can’t it for book two.

Knot my home is book one of pack Sinclair by K.J.Keyes and T.A Note. I enjoyed reading an ARC copy of this book. The Character's written spoke volumes about their turmoil and everything each character went through, be it the ones that were kidnapped and experimented on or the ones that were left behind, not knowing what happened, etc. This book does end on a cliffhanger, and I am very much looking forward to reading the next part

3.5 stars. A solid Omegaverse. I enjoyed the different approach. It isn’t a story line that you have seen regurgitated over and over, so that was refreshing in itself. I love the pack dynamic and the character development. I feel like it could have been slowed down and the relationship building focused on more between each of them. The suspense is good when it comes up and hopefully will build in the next book. There were some sentences and phrases that seemed repetitive or awkward in their wording and placement. It wasn’t consistent through out the book so it didn’t completely turn me off of continuing their journey. All in all a good book, likable characters, and I will definitely be reading book two and checking out more from these authors!

I loved, loved, loved this story. I hadn’t read any work by these authors before this book but now, I want to read anything they’ve ever written!

It’s no secret I love Omegaverse and I think this was an original storyline that had the perfect amount of angst, heartache and smut (because let’s face it, that’s kind of why we all like omegaverse right? 😉)

Marlow had a relationship with two guys she grew up with, one who presented as an omega like herself and one as an alpha. Marlow is kidnapped before she can complete the bond with Milo and River and spends the next few years as a lab rat being tested and experimented on. While in captivity Marlow bonds with a new alpha and his beta. When they are rescued by Kai (River and Milo’s housemate) all six of them adjust to learning how to live as a potentially new pack and how to adjust to life and dealing with their trauma.

Yes, there’s a cliffhanger but I’m crossing my fingers that there’s a happily ever after at the end of the series.

Read this book, it’s amazing!

I loved this first book in the Pack Sinclair Duet!!!

Marlow has been missing for 7 years since her 16th birthday. Her mates Milo (Omega) and River (Alpha) have been holding out hope to one day find her again. Since Milo is bonded to Marlow they use the bond to hold on to hope that they will one day get her back.

Marlow has been held captive by an organization that has been experimenting on female omegas. For the last 4 years of her captivity, Marlow has been allowed to keep Zion (Beta) with her to calm her down. Zion's bonded mate Raiden (Alpha) has been the alpha that helps her through her heats. Both Zion and Raiden fall in love with Marlow and after her heat, Raiden bonds with her.

Add in Kai (Alpha), Milo and River's roommate who agrees to help them to find Marlow and when he does, he brings Marlow along with her beta and alpha home.

Will all the men get along? Will Marlow, Zion and Raiden be able to truly get past all the horrors they endured in the facility? The suspense from the cliffhanger was great and I can't wait to read the conclusion to this story. There are some TW and the spicy scenes were really spicy.

I received this a free copy of this book and I'm voluntarily leaving a review.

Marlow is a 16-year old omega who was about to start a pack with her alpha, River and Milo, a male omega. They were deeply in love and with River's blessing, Milo marked Marlow. One night, she gets kidnapped, and she still hasn't been found 7 years later. River and Milo are devastated, but keep hope as Milo can still feel Marlow through the bond. Meanwhile, Marlow has been in a type of facilities for experimenting on omegas and their heats. There, she one day meets Zion, a beta with whom she makes an instant connection. They are kept together, and everytime Marlow goes into heat, they are briefly reunited with Raiden, Zion's bonded alpha with whom Marlow is also in love. They help each other survive the horrors of the experiments... At the same time, when River and Milo's roommates, learns of Marlow's disappearance, he lets them know he's a cop, and promises them to investigate and try to find Marlow. Will Marlow ever get found? How will River and Milo deal with the new men in their mate's life? Will the dangers of the facilities be truly behind them? Read to find out!

I looooved this book!!! It's part of a duet, so it ends in a cliffhanger, and now I can't wait for the second book to be released!!! The resilience of Marlow, Zion and Raiden is extraordinary! I also adore Milo, the spunky omega, and River, the strong alpha. The whole book, I was on my tippy toes, waiting to see what was gonna happen... I recommend this to anyone who likes omegaverses and RH! Trust me, you'll love it!

Knot My Home by K.J. Keyes and T.A. Note is the first in the Pack Sinclair Duet. We meet Marlow, the FMC, who is an Omega that was abducted when she first presented as an Omega. She was already starting her pack and River and Milo were devastated when she was taken. Fast forward seven years, River and Milo catch a break with Kai and they find Marlow, Raiden, and Zion. What a great start to the duet. So much is going on. Some TW. No bullying. No cheating. It does end on a cliff hanger. Grab some tissues!

Wonderfully emotional and traumatic!

This is beautifully written, the focus on the trauma that Marlow, along with Raiden and Zion have suffered at the hands of an unknown group who have experimented on them, forcing Marlow to have heats. The years apart have also affected River and Milo, who were bonded with Marlow, well Milo had, before she was taken. Trying to balance joining these two facets of her life, then throw in a hunky detective who rescues her are the basis of this story. It's wonderful, I wanted to cry and nearly did at several points as I read it. The chemistry between the two groups is off the charts, throw in a breeding and daddy k!nk as well!!!!!!!
And the ending wasn't fair, I need to know what happens!!!!!!!

emotional casserole

This book is a warm and gooey serving of emotional casserole that comes as a great addition to omegaverse books.

I think I cried more while reading this book than any other I have ever read.

Ends on a HARD cliffhanger so I really can’t wait for book 2. Seriously, I need it like yesterday.

Jaw to the ground

What! Nooooooo! Like how am I suppose to that long for book two. If you love mate, omegas, protective as hell alphas, and a playful beta this book is for you. The trauma that Marlow, Zion and Raiden go through is heartbreaking and I'm glad that they have each other and Milo, Kai and River. But that cliffhanger, man it's got me messed up. Praying book two comes soon than November 2023. Great book will 100% recommend!!!

If you love omegaverse then you need to read this book. I still consider myself new to the omegaverse genre. It seems like a lot of the authors I read are switching things up and are also starting to write it. I love the characters in this one. The storyline is really good. It's a difficult one, and could be triggering for some, but it's done really well in my opinion. It had me all in my feels for them. There are a ton of different pov's, which I actually love. I feel like there's more depth and insight to what everyone is thinking and what's happening. The cliffhanger is one that will leave you needing the next book asap. Can't wait for book two!!!

Reading this blurb I just had to get it and read it. It was everything I want in an omegaverse. The story is a bit more unique since Marlow was kidnapped and tested and tried on as a medical testing subject. This is also the case for the beta and one of her alphas. I love the fact that the guys she once knew were still looking for her. They called in help and it was a hassle. Once out of the facility things aren't as easy as she needs to adapt as do the guys. Can they learn to be a pack? Omegaverse lovers out there need this for sure.

I received this book for an honest review.

The story about Marlow and her guys is the debut of a series. I read it fairly quickly and enjoyed it as well, but at times I was hoping for the story and romance to go more into depth. It's all very quick and not very detailed. That being said, the story definitely has potential and isn't something you read over and over again. The characters are likeable and the storyline can be followed well. I definitely am not into calling a partner or lover Daddy, so that was a little off putting, but that is just me :D

I'd rate the story a 3,5, rounded up to four stars and being that there is a MASSIVE cliffhanger in the end, I'll definitely continue the story.

At first i had a hard time getting into the book as i was having a little trouble with all the pov. But it got easier the more i read. This is a RH book with Marlow in the senter. We follow her and beta Zion and Alpha, Raiden, River and Kai and omega Milo, as Marlow, Raiden and Zion is in captivity and River and Milo tries to Get het back with the help of Kai. This book has some parts that can be hard ti read so be aware of that. And that it ends on a major cliffhanger.


I recived This book as an ARC

I enjoyed this authors debut novel. It’s well written with a really good plot, there wasn’t a dull moment in this book. I love the group dynamics as well and how the pack forms to support the female character. Ends on a cliffhanger… looking forward to book 2. Loved it

Really enjoyed this storyline! Definitely something I haven't read from an Omegaverse. There was a good deal of twists and turns, suspense and a bit of action.

The characters went on a rollercoaster ride of emotions, but I felt, even with the spicy scenes, I was missing the chemistry. The pet names were repetitive and that's probably what lead me to think that the relationships lacked depth.

I love to hate a good cliffhanger and this was it! I think the second book is going to get into the mess of it! I bet there will be alot of action and alot more 🥵

All in all, this is a great debut!

I LOVED this omega story! This was one of the most unique omegaverse I have read before. I loved the double omega aspect as well as watching Marlow as her and her mates deal with not only her abduction but the aftermath. Can't wait for the next book!

Heartbreaking and beautiful it is not difficult to see why I became so emotionally invested into Milo, Kai, River, Marlow, Zion and Raiden's story. There is so much stretch in these characters each having to go through some trauma in some form or fashion. This is an incredible and well written omegaverse romance that shows an amazing development in the relationship between the characters.

Excellent!!
I couldn't put it down!!! This book gave me all the feels. There was suspense, angst and lots of yummy steam!! I loved seeing the two packs come together and watching the change in them all. While Marlow is at the heart of the group, the guys all have or are starting relationships as well. My heart couldn't help but break for each of them, because they all suffered in different ways. That ending!!! I need book 2 now!!! I loved it!!

I loved this book. The relationships between all of the characters are amazing.

This does end on a cliffhanger, so be prepared to be angry and want to throw your kindle across the room.

Let me start off by saying I think the idea of this book is a good one. Captive omega with a pack that’s never given up hope that she’ll be found. Unfortunately, there were multiple ways in which this book missed the mark.

First, Marlow exhibits virtually NO signs that she was held captive. Her other mates, Zion and Raiden, also acted relatively unaffected. Having gone through physical and mental abuse for years, you would expect these characters to exhibit more signs of PTSD.

Marlow’s other pack members, Milo and River, irritated me to no end. Milo was extremely immature and I was appalled at how often he wanted to take Marlow out privately, despite her being NEWLY RESCUED FROM A TRAFFICKING ORGANIZATION. Similarly, Marlow was so petty and couldn’t understand why her alphas were upset by their rebellious decisions. Like girl….are you forreal?

To that point, don’t even get me started on the relationships. For most of the book, it felt like three families living together. You have Marlow, Milo, and River. Marlow, Zion, and Raiden. And Marlow and Kai, who said he knew he wanted her the moment he saw her photo (this was just cringe to me….). Sure, Milo teased Raiden a bit, but for the most part you had three different families cohabiting.

The other issue I had with this book was the editing. Commas are necessary, but you don’t need one in every sentence!!! This read like a debut novel, so I imagine this will improve in the future, but nevertheless it irked me.

Naturally, the book ends on a cliffhanger. But I’m so strung out from reading about obnoxious, immature omegas that I won’t be continuing.
