Genre: Hockey Omegaverse

This Omega doesn’t do drama, drugs, or hockey players. The first two for obvious reasons. The last because I don’t shit where I eat. As the daughter of the Phoenix Heat’s owner, I know better than to dip my toes into that particular pool. The league is way too small a world, and I am a drama-free zone. 

When my daddy strongly suggests (read: insists) I come home for a visit, how can I say no? But without my besties by my side, there’s no one to stop me from making an epicly stupid decision when I discover the Heat’s captain in a compromising position. I’m suddenly in the one place I swore I’d never be…a hockey player’s bed, forging pack bonds I had no intention of having. 

When scandal erupts around us, I vow to do whatever it takes to save my new pack, even at my own expense. In a moment of desperation, I lock lips with their nemesis right on the kiss cam. Now, I’m the one in desperate need of saving from the grumpy center of the Chicago Storm. 

Can this Omega bridge the gap between these mortal enemies, or have I just doomed us all?

I love this cover and I love the little cartoons at the start of every chapter. But I'm looking at the cover now, after having read the book. And like, dang girl. What about Ziggy?? Was it just symmetry or a commentary on him being the only beta in the pack??

I am not usually a big instalove fan, but for whatever reason it works in paranormals and omega verse books. It's biology, am I right?! And there are elements of instalove in this book, but I enjoyed some of the angst we got as well. It felt genuine at least. 

This was a really fun pack dynamic and I loved all of the POVs that you see in this book. Spoiler alert: I do not like a surprise baby, and the fact that they threw a baby surprise in there really annoyed me. Like the book was pretty great up to that point. I did NOT want a surprise baby and I didn't see a trigger warning about it, even though I read all of the front material.
