4.0

I’ve read this author before but unfortunately of that prior one, I wasn’t a fan, it wasn’t really for me, well this just shows that you shouldn’t write an author off after one experience, give them another chance, If I hadn’t then I would have missed out on this particular gem which would have been a shame as I enjoyed this one very much.

Both books were omegaverse but every single point I brought up in my review of that one like the alphas acting more beta and it lacking the delicious dark primal behaviour that I expect from this particular genre well here it was the exact opposite. Unlike my previous experience this had all of that in abundance it was also combined with an imaginative dark and twisted storyline that was just so compelling and made for some addictive reading.

I adored the central plot with this one a maze with monsters where our Alpha and his brothers have been imprisoned for the past seven years, made to dance at a puppet-master's whim only becoming darker and more brutal the longer they have to endure their new nightmare existence.

Diana is an Omega one who has been forced to work for Rama the evil Puppeteer of all of this craziness. When she’s thrown into the maze as the next mark and easy prey for the creatures that reside in that twisted prison her only chance is to convince Noire that she’s worth saving and their ticket to freedom.

This isn’t a sweet and fluffy romance there are definitely blurred boundaries and a lack of initial consent involved. Noire is not a gentle Alpha and definitely makes no apologies for his brutal behaviour. Because this is omegaverse it works and this has lots of dominant possessive take what i want and am due attitudes.

The story was blatantly sexual in nature lots of force and overt voyeurism involved from everyone. There was also a strong story plot that kept things interesting. The story plot is yet to conclude and the next book focuses on the brother Jet I’m intrigued to dive into that one, especially with the dynamic as it’s looking to be a ménage type bond and we’ve met two of that trio already here.

This was well written with a strong plot and great fantasy world set-up I’m definitely going to be continuing on now as I’m massively invested. Do be aware this definitely has some dark content.
