Shared Omega by Lizzy Bequin

4 Stars

The writing and editing of this novel was fairly clean, with only a few typos that I caught in the ARC version of the manuscript. The characterization was okay for the multiple heroes, and quite good for the heroine, which is often the case in short reverse harem romances. The development of the romantic relationship was good between the heroine and two of the heroes, but a little less satisfying with one of the heroes because he was super prejudiced. I typically don't enjoy romance arcs between a prejudiced person and another person who is a victim of that prejudice. It makes me feel a little sick. The plot and pacing was great, super exciting. I was turning pages rapidly to find out what was going to happen next. The spicy scenes in this romance were plentiful and filthy, so I really enjoyed that. There was very low angst and very high stakes in this novel, which is one of my preferred narrative structures for romance novels. This novel used the Mating Bond trope, which is a staple of omegaverse romances. The plot, pacing, and world building rated four stars. The development of the romantic relationships and characterization also rated four stars. The combined score therefore rated four stars. This novel contained a Happy Ever After ending, which is a big plus, considering the majority of m/f omegaverse seems to be multiple book series that end on cliffhangers, which is a downer. I recommend this story to fans of m/f omegaverse who enjoy Alphas who are not abusive. I plan on buying myself a keeper copy of this novel. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
