The writing and editing of the ARC version of the manuscript was clean, with no typos that I caught. The world building of this alternate America had been well established in the previous books in this series, but I will admit that I might have been a little lost on exactly how this omegaverse USA differs from the real USA if I had not read all the previous novels in this series. The characterization was competent, with the heroine and three romantic heroes all being sympathetic individuals. The development of the romantic relationship was fairly well done, especially considering the fact that there were three romantic heroes all falling in love with one heroine. The plot and pacing was exciting and fairly quick. It dragged a little bit in the middle when not much suspense was happening, but it still moved quickly. There was a fair amount of angst in this novel on both Torrin and the heroine's side, which was a little bit of a pain, but it was resolved quickly enough to not negatively impact my enjoyment of the novel. The stakes were very high, which I thoroughly enjoyed. This novel used the Partner in Trouble trope and the Bad Boy trope. Also the Virgin Heroine trope. The world building was three stars. The plot and pacing were five stars. The characterization and development of the romantic relationship were four stars. The combined rating of this novel was therefore four stars. This novel ends on a Happy Ever After ending instead of a cliffhanger, so that is a big plus. I recommend this novel to readers who enjoy reverse harem and omegaverse romances. I will enjoy reading the next novel in the series when it comes out. I will not buy myself a keeper copy of this novel at this time, though I enjoyed it quite a bit.
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
