Rut Bar
by Alexis B. Osborne
I'm very impressed with Alexis. This is nearly a 650 page book on kindle and I was pretty much hooked the entire time. I read somewhere that it's tagged as 80% smut and that's the truth. With a why choose, it's really easy to hit a high percentage number of smut/romance, but it felt right, with the book being so long and an omegaverse, it wasn't only smut and there was a lot of growth in the four main characters, Veronica(Vee), Jamie, Anthony, and Brenden.
What is an omegaverse? Alexis goes over the basics at the beginning of the book, making sure their audience understands what they are getting into as it can be a shocker to some.
Starting with Chapter 1, "Someone has to take care of you since you're too busy taking care of everyone else to do it yourself. Make sure you eat a vegetable every once in a while", this immediately kicks in and sets the scene of who Veronica is, if you've ever been an overworked, under cared for person.
I was very worried getting into about how Jamie was perceived. At first, it seems like he is ill or very much younger than the 36 he's claimed to be, but throughout the book Alexis makes it a heartwarming story about a 'sweet, loyal, caring' Jamie that 'takes direction well, but you have to be very clear of he doesn't always get it.'
Brenden is my favorite. I can't get over the cute, sexy, dad that he is and the mass amount of knowledge he has from just living life. And I mean... it doesn't hurt that he has a knot and knots (if you know what I mean - read the damn book).
Now Anthony... He was the one I was on the fence about the entire time. I couldn't figure out if he was pushy in a good way or an inappropriate way. I understand that he's a Beta and needs to try and pave his way into a pack that has two alphas, but sometimes it was almost a step to far... but was it? I don't know, I'm not Vee and by the end of the book, Vee was in love with them, so is it for me to say? He's very much a 'who did this to you' and "I'll throw your bleeding enemies at your feet so you can stomp them into the dirt" which is so hot.
Overall, I'm sold. I'm going to go back and read the 'first' which is Heat Clinic.
