Absolutely loved this book! All the characters had wonderful development, learning from their mistakes and the coming together in the end was just chef’s kiss. I really don’t have anything bad to say about this book besides wanting more before the epilogue!

The first half of the book had me hooked. As a first time reader of the Omegaverse, I loved reading about their relationship and the spice was great! 

**Potential Spoiler Alert! Proceed with caution!**

And then the big twist happened, which was rushed, and everything just came tumbling down for me. Considering the main event that marks a huge turn for the book was rushed, it didn’t have as much of an emotional impact as it could have for me. I sympathize with depression, especially when grief is at play, but instead of showing us this difficult time, it was a lot of telling and repetition.  

**Potential Spoiler Alert! Proceed with caution!**

One thing I hate in romance is miscommunication, and that was the main driver in the packs break up for the whole story. While I can understand both sides to a degree, the Charlotte become petty and unapologetic, even when one of her love interests presented very clear and reasonable counterpoints to justify his own emotions. Personally would have preferred to see Charlotte own up to her own mistakes with Mikael (and have Mikael own up to his as well), instead of the direction it went after the whole journal debacle 🙄.

”One Pucked Up Pack” has been on my TBR for a little while & I am soo glad that I finally got around to reading this story because I adored it! <3

Eli + Anders + Mikael were *chef’s kiss* LIs & I loved the extended epilogue (it was so heartwarming)…🥹

The only issue that I had with this story is that I wanted more scenes of the men (Eli + Mikael in particular) discussing their upbringings with Charlotte (I wanted to see more conversations about their families in general).

I cannot wait for Piper’s story — the bits that we’ve gotten so far seem so exciting! :) ♡
