I can see why some people didn't like this book. I feel like you have to be in the mood for this book to really enjoy it. I mean if you read an omegaverse book then there are just certain cheesy things that come with it. One thing that really bothered me was the amount of apologizing for things that wasn't the person's fault and how insecure Josie was throughout the entire book. At some points her insecurity just got to be a little too much for me.
What to expect:
~ Plus size FMC
~ 3 hot cinnamon roll boyfriends
~ Protective alphahole boyfriend
~ British accent
~ A man who reads romance books
~ A man who knits blankets for his girl
Moderate: Body shaming, Confinement, Physical abuse, and Sexism

Josie has been through things most people can't even imagine and she's given up hope of being able to find a pack with love. Cam, Ben, and Theo have given up finding an omega for their pack in part due to how horrible omegas are treated by society. When they're paired together by the resistance, they both may have found what they're looking for.
Thoughts
The best omegaverse I've read in a while in terms of overall storytelling. This book was very dark, but there's something about the writing and the characters that kept me hooked. I adored the way the guys always put Josie's feelings ahead of their own and they spent as much time as needed to make her feel secure. The overarching plot about the government and the resistance's fight against it was very detailed and seamlessly integrated. What a crazy cliffhanger though.

The beginning called this book cozy and I definitely do not agree with that. I was stressing from beginning to end.
This is all sort of just thinly veiled allegory for the current american political climate…
I wasn’t gonna read the second one and I haven’t decided if I am, but the (very predictable) ending stressed me out so fuckin much I might need to

FMC has low self esteem connected to her weight and body image and suffers from binge eating. Internal thoughts concerning this are prevalent. Active body shaming throughout this book from her parents and others. Proceed with caution if you have body image issues or an eating disorder, this book could trigger you.
