Knot the One They Want

Holy hell I can't believe this is the first thing I've read all the way through in months... but at the same time I really can lol.

Like others I was pretty unsatisfied with the groveling, buttttt the plot was solidly interesting, the way the heroes hurt Evie also felt pretty unique (the unhealed bite scars and holding out for an ex lover), and the prose and imagery were really immersive and lovely. I was actually pleasantly surprised by how well Evie and Damien were fleshed out as characters and the quality of writing within each chapter. The world building felt nice and comfortable, not overwhelming like it can with some omegaverse. All in all it was a nice, unassuming novel with a strong heroine and that delicious (and somehow comforting??) hurt comfort drama that is now classic of the genre.

The cons:
-Like I said before the grovel was really, reeeeeeeaaaally not cutting it. All though it still somehow felt less offensive than in other books I've read.
-My biggest complaint actually is that the transitions were pretty rough. I'm pretty sure the “Evie checks her scars in the mirror” transition happened at least 3 times, and a similar thing happened with a chapter starting with Damien's super bratty inner monologue.
- Also the other three Heroes kinda were non-descript at times. Like they had different character traits, and were distinguishable from one another, but they kinda just acted as a single foil to Damien rather than actual characters themselves.

I received an advanced review copy of this book for free, but that doesn't matter as I would have just gotten it on KU. I've just recently gotten into this genre, omegaverse I think it's called. This is now one of my favorite books, this genre or outside of this genre. The story is so well written, an Omega is pressured by her family to mate with a pack, when things don't go as she thought they would, it's heartbreaking. For me, it was, this book made me cry multiple times! I could feel her pain in my own heart, was angry and worried and happy and just about every other emotion throughout the story. It was a great read and I stayed up way too late 2 nights in a row to finish it. Great read, wonderful story!!
