I don’t usually read human omega verse because they r always very rapey; this one was only rapey in past (not the current) relationship though. I’m going to keep reading purely ‘cuz I’m curious about the FF relation to develop. 

The BDSM relationships were surprisingly pretty well written, there was a full discussion about scenes and boundaries before anything happened, it was great. 

I hope Seth and Darren die a slow and painful death in a firey car crash. 

The cliffhanger ending was not the cliffhanger I was expecting, kinda weird, but okay Ig, wasn’t really necessary.

ends in a car crash, I swear to fucking god if Darren or Seth was driving that car and kidnaps her, I am not finishing this series, because I will have kms

🌶️🌶️.5/5

Very good story! I’ve never read an omegaverse story as well written. 

The author plays beautifully with the genre and its tropes while changing or ignoring the more harmful or unbelievable ones.

The author manages to avoid one of my biggest pet-peeve in romance: the timing of the story. There are often inconsistencies, or the love story happens in a week, where the characters barely eat/sleep/work, with little to no consequences (I’m not even talking about the realism of building an entire relationship in a week).

All in all, Thora Woods seems to be a very promising author, and I’ll definitely read the next book in the story, and check her next works!
