This is a why choose omegaverse sci fi romance where the omega is not aware of her powers or that she's an omega due to being taken as a child from her parents and her race of people being largely extinct due to wars in the universe. She is taken when their sanctuary is raided and then used to heal some prisoners in at a prison while her skills are tested and they wait for the area warlord to return.
Overall, I thought this story was enjoyable. The FMC is extremely naïve when it comes to males due to being raised at the mostly-female sanctuary and it leads to a lot of miscommunications along the way. Perhaps it was due to my age that eventually these got a bit tedious and predictable. I liked the relationship generally between the packmates and thought there was a pretty good explanation on the worldbuilding, even though we don't end up needing much information about their home world in the end.
I think this story was a good read and with a few less uses of the miscommunication (especially in the neighborhood of "oh you were aroused by that? I thought you were mad" variety) I think this could have easily made it a 4 star for me. It was a standalone and there is another standalone in the same overall world, and I'll be reading that one to check it out.

I was lucky enough to read this when it was on Amaazon Vella. The suspense to wait for each episode after I caught up on the already published ones was nerve wracking.
Luckily, you won't have to wait!! This story is great. Andorra is the last of her kind (not that we know what her kind REALLY is), but she's being protected, or so she thought on a planet full of women that were previously 'used and abused'.
Deception happens, and our sweet girl finds herself on a ship locked up with 3 alien men that look like nothing she has seen before, with captors that aren't kind in the least, with the threat of the man who did some horrible things that you'll find out about directly when Andorra was young.
I could keep telling you how and why this book is awesome, but then WHY would you need to read it?? So if you like a slow burn romance with RH theme, this is the one for you. The end is so sweet and I will say this, there is a HEA.

Love the story. Best part is the fmc saves herself and takes care of her men.
