The second installment in Lana Ferguson’s Omegaverse romance series, as I call it, hits the mark! It’s hot, funny, and very endearing. For an Alpha, Hunter is such a cinnamon roll of a hero. He and Tess don’t get off on the right foot, but the attraction is immediate. Seeing them navigate their professional relationship while dealing with natural instincts is entertaining and balanced so well. Lana does an excellent job at maintaining boundaries in situations where it would seem impossible. I knew, having loved The Fake Mate, I would enjoy being back in this world, but I underestimated how much. I loved Mackenzie and Noah’s appearances and cameos in the story. It felt like visiting old friends. I really hope there are more Omegaverse romances to come, because they’re quickly becoming my favorites of Lana’s books to read!
