Knot Fit for Love

If a body can talk, then Elias' body could have told the sad story of 1 boy who built an empire of dreams on the expectation that 1 day he would present as an alpha and nothing could stay on his way. But the reality turned far more complicated than what Elias expected. His life changed when he presented as an Omega and not only that but also as a carrier of ultra rare condition - one that is a danger to him during heats. The focus of this lightly dark omegaverse story is the taste and the bitter price of survival. For years Elias was in merciless war with his own biology - a brilliant mind trapped by the needs of unwanted Omega heats and unwelcome body reactions. And the scars littering his skin, silent witness on all of his failed relationships and attempts to find a reliable alpha - one that will cherish and respect him as a person, not as representation of the traits of his secondary gender. The myriad of emotions, plaguing Elias' mind, all the fears, doubts and painful memories were so skillfully described on page, it was a frightening and quite realistic reading experience.
Building up the complicated past of such a troubled character, living in constant war with the 2 parts of himself, didn't leave a lot of story time for development of the bonds with the 3 alphas Elias chose for himself and even less for the bonds that should form and strengthen between the alphas themselves. It felt like they were roommates tolerating each other's presence in order to please and comfort their omega. I would have loved to see more of their inner dynamics, to really feel some emotional connections between them that aren't only based on the fact that they were mated to one and the same partner.
The other thing that took me by surprise was Elias' first choice after such a long time of healing.
With all his deeply rooted trust issues and 6y of staying away from alphas, he picked up a complete stranger as a partner while the only stable rock in the turbulent sea of his life was just a touch way and they had incredible chemistry and compatibility together.
Overall, I enjoyed the book - the first part more than the second.
