Loved this book. I didn't realize the countryside was still dealing with the issues that Clarissa discusses. I admit I had to look up a few of her terms because they are foreign to American eyes.

I had a hard time reading this book. Gilda's experiences with cancer reflected so many of my mom's even though they each had a different cancer. I think this should be read by anyone who is touched by cancer, but it won't make it any easier.

Pretty awful. I barely finished it. I really didn't like the main characters until the end of the book and I'm still not sure that I should. I found this story to be pretty unbelievable. It's like watching an episode of Maury... "My boyfriend is my step-brother" complete with the trashy ensemble cast.

It was nice to read a story where Darren and Kavon are not front and center. Maybe I shouldn't have read them all in order, but this one felt almost formulaic. Still, a good summer read.

Wow! So much misogyny. If this is part of the sub-genre, I think I'll be avoiding it in the future.

Cute story. I had figured out the "secret" fairly early on in the book, but I like the way the author handled the revelation. I wish this were the world that I grew up in (or if stories like this even existed in my youth), but it's good to see these stories imagined for today's youth.

An engaging story. I liked the use of setting to allude to which society is more "desirable". I really didn't like the protagonist at first, but he develops and grows on you...

Loved it! What a pot boiler, in all the best ways! Our hero is over the top, his nemesis is out of this world. I want more!

Yeah, there's a kinky ovipositor sex scene. At this point, the series looks like a campy LGBT horror-adventure serial. A real steampunk gay Flash Gordon.

I didn't go into this with a lot of hope. I don't tend to enjoy the majority of omega stories. They just don't seem believable as individuals to me. This story, however, was very well done. Keeping within the constraints of the lore for omegas, we have an individual with self-determination. I found Thane to be charismatic and engaging. I'm now going to read the rest of the series to see if the author can keep up with this kind of nuanced character.

This was recommended to me as a m/m romance, but it's not that. Yes there is m/m sex and something similar to a romance, but this is more in the fantasy/horror/thriller realm than romance. The author does a great job portraying the transformation of Mike in this story. This bro becomes a beast and that beast has needs he doesn't understand. Great story. Great suspense. It kept me turning pages.

Wow, does this need a good editor. If you get pulled out of the story by typos and poor grammar you will have a hard time with this one.

So much angst! So many tears!

The style of writing gave me trouble several times. I think this an attempt to convey the mental state/ability of the MC, but it sometimes got in the way of the story for me.

I really love these characters and my heart is still sore.

I was a little iffy on the concept of the relationship that developed between the MCs. There are definitely gray areas of consent to my eye. The power dynamic between a runaway and their rescuer isn't something I would think would make a romance, but it kinda works here. I get that Tad really does fall for this guy right away. I just wish they had taken more time to let the relationship develop. The whole story felt rushed. The editing also shows a rush to market. If you can overlook the poor editing and aren't put off by the speed of the relationship, it's a good story.

I really had a problem with the whole relationship between a counselor and a patient. Just yuck!

The editing was awful, again, in this second part of the trilogy. I get that this is about fated mates, but I'm not happy with the way the professional lines were crossed in this one. It's an important story to get the whole triplet arc, but I left feeling dirty instead of hot.

These stories are super-fast. The plot is rushed and so is the editing. There were parts that were so bad that it wasn't clear what was going on. Names are swapped and phrases just change direction midway through. Really poorly done.

I felt much better about the professional gray areas in this story. I like that Nate was able to stand up for what he wanted and was given a real, independent, and healthy take on relationships. Harry, is my favorite of the three brothers, from an emotional stability standpoint. Tad is hot, but Harry... he's husband material.

I'm not sure I believe the danger of being fired because you're dating a student's single parent, but this was a fun story for the most part. Probably more of a 3.5 than a true 4. Emery seemed to be a precocious child and I think she could have been developed more. She could have been utilized more as the device used to keep the MCs apart and eventually bring them together. The little bit she was used in that way in the storytelling was sweet. I had huge problems with the editing, but I'm finding that is par for the course in this genre.

The idea of fated mates is interesting, and the notion that you could distinguish them by smell was novel to me. Most of the other books I've read that have dealt with this concept have used more ethereal means of identifying said mate.

I loved the story, but could have used more professional editing. It looks like the author used a speech to text program. The editing issues are usually sound alikes or things that sound similar. The problem is that they change the meaning significantly.

This would have been 5 stars for me if the editing were better.

A good story, but after reading the first two this one was a bit formulaic. It would have been nice to have the conflict in the story take place before the pregnancy. This series is really a perpetuation of pregnancy induced emotional stereotypes.

Glad Slater and Niko are together, too bad it had to follow almost the exact same pattern as the previous two stories.

Several good ideas for stories in this one, but it really cries out for an editor. Sean is an interesting character. Tommy seems inexplicably catatonic at times. So crippled by his emotional issues that he just spins his proverbial wheels. I'll continue reading the rest of the series, for now.

I'm really enjoying this series and can't wait to read more!

Adorable! I loved Leo's narration. He really should do more books.

I love that they addressed the time apart, but I don't know anyone who would forgive that kind of thing so quickly. Although, to address it completely this would have been a much longer and more angst filled story. The narration made the story really come to life for me. I had lots of the feels with this one. A very sweet story. Gracey deserves to be happy.

I'm glad to finally get more into Sean's character, but this book feels like it needs to be part of the first one instead of its own stand-alone story. If you could integrate both of these into one book, it would be a much better product overall.

I enjoyed the story, but the ending felt rushed. I look forward to the rest of the story when the other books are released.

I originally was only going to give this story 4 stars. I wasn't sure I would ever get over the shit that Joey did in the previous two books. OMG, I'm in love with Joey and Dyl. I want them to succeed. I want Joey to continue to develop and learn what love is. I want Dylan to be the one that shows him the joy that love can bring. I want them both to be together forever. I want all the mushy romance crap so much! By the end of the story I was completely swooning over these two.

Nice to get some background to Grant and Sahil, but it just didn't seem like enough extra from what we got in the first two books. The second book in the series really seemed to capture the shift in their relationship. I would have liked more insight into Sahil's reasons for being so distant and un-trusting. That seemed to be slightly glossed over. I want more.

Rhys and Kevin are a cute couple. They definitely need therapy and hopefully the program will provide that. Rhys not being able to shift seemed like an interesting twist, but really came across as a none issue except during a brief encounter in the certification program. I would have liked to have been told more about that dynamic. Maybe the certification portion could have been one chapter longer than what is already there.
