Nothing particularly wrong with the writing or plot but already the book is dragging way too fucking long and I’m getting a migraine thinking about having to not only finish this book but also the next one.

Wasn't captivating, felt repetitive, and the FMC was boring

10/10 do recommend

This was a different take on omegaverse than I’m used to but I really liked it.

The nuances and intricacies were captivating.

The spice was spicing! Soooo good!

I really liked this book.
I liked the way that the author deals with Josie trauma. It's not instant gone after she meets Cam, Ben and Theo but she slowly opens up.
I really liked the balance between spicy scenes and the story line. Like the smut was spicy but there was not a lot so it didn't take from the story. I loved the balance

At first, I was really liking the cozy, super mushy vibe of the book but 550 pages of it got a bit boring. There was insta-love and no tension or conflict between the love interests, and the outside plot was in the background for most of the book so it didn’t leave much to keep my interest. It was basically 500 pages of them living their day to day lives, Josie feeling insecure and whiny, and the guys worshipping her to an extreme. If it was cut in half, I think I would have loved it but it was just too long and too sweet for me. It is perfect for anyone who just wants to read a book that feels like a big hug though.
