I have some conflicting feelings about this novel and whether I want to continue with the series. I think out of sheer curiosity I will, but the plot overall hasn't been my personal favorite. While I do love the very dark romance vibes in this omegaverse, with our characters all being moral shades of grey, there was a little too much military presence in the story for me to be able to relax into it. This sort of alpha male complex works well in an omegaverse, obviously, but we didn't get enough of the found family or comfort vibes I search for in this genre. I think I'm having trouble combining the dark romance aspects I enjoy in other series like The Lords, and having those mix with an omegaverse world where I've come to expect a lot of comfort running parallel to trauma and healing. I'm hoping these will evolve in book 2, and that it's just more of a slow build.
