My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Roses for His Omega: a Mapleville Valentine’s Day Novella: M/M No Shifter Alpha/Omega Mpreg (Mapleville Omegas Book 2) (ARC) was graciously provided to me by the author for an honest review.
“An Omegaverse Love Story…”
As I sit here looking all dreamily at my computer at the culmination of my most recent read, I can’t help but think back to all of the wonderful parts that really had me falling in love with this book early on in the read. Roses for His Omega by Lorelei M. Hart and Ophelia Heart is a sweet, humorous, sexy, heart-warming, and, fulfilling read. A read with not only angst-filled moments, but loving and tender moments as well. A read that would make any Valentine’s Day extra-special. This novella takes place in an Omegaverse, where alphas, betas, and, omegas are the norm, and, where places and ways-of-life are a bit different to that of which is recognizable. I love stories from this world, and, find it simply intriguing and very interesting to always read. I absolutely loved this story!
Roses for His Omega is a story about two young men, Reid and Kayson, who are at a time of their lives still unable to find that perfect match to make their lives complete. At a surprising yet interesting moment, both men suddenly feel a gentle yet forcefully loving wind guide them towards one another. As each man suddenly and wonderfully is confronted by this indescribable attraction and pull for the other, as if unable to ignore this invisible call, both men slowly begin to get to know one another, soon discovering that that scented pull, that blanketed warmth of a connection, has guided them into the welcoming arms of their forever other half. This mated draw, they soon discover, will have them in the mist of the most wonderful life with that one person who will make all of their dreams come true.
Throughout the story, I frequently found myself staring with heart-shaped eyes, at my monitor, feeling quite silly because it is an inanimate object after all, but, that didn’t seem to make one bit of a difference to me. At all. I may have drooled a bit, I may have swooned for like the umpteenth time..and..then I bawled..but then I swooned again. *sigh* It was so refreshing to see an alpha who was so kind, attentive and selflessly protective of..his omega..in ways that would have anyone dreaming for their own alpha to show that same kind of love. As I read this novella, I found it to be a very well written story, and, loved the secondary characters as well, despite it being a storyline with slight development with characters slightly development as well. The secondary characters, including a feisty aunt who made it her mission to bring happiness, love, and, flowers into the lives of all who frequented her life, all contributed nicely to the overall enjoyment of this read.
I’m always drawn to stories like this one, and, despite there being some typos involving character pov, and, with the hope of reading some of the other important moments from Reid and Kayson’s lives, I found this read to be a very warmly intriguing and absolutely beautiful read and would welcome reading not only more books from these authors, as this was my first, but, also a story with more depth as a whole. Especially with these characters. *ahem* So, as I sit here rubbing my hands together on a quest for more wonderful stories such as this one, I will continue to think about all of the moments which had Roses for His Omega such a special read for me..:)
