A review by taylorhathcock
Fallen omega by Brooke Harper
4.0
I have to say that maybe I'm being a little nice with 4 stars and that some might would give it 3 at least when it comes to the omegaverse dynamic. I will admit that I'm still new to that dynamic and so I don't know how much this follows the typical dynamic. However, it really kept my interest and made me want to see what was happening next... despite the fact that I felt like some things could have been explained a little better. It had some moments when I think it would have been better to slow down and explain the lore a bit. Yet, at the same time it does a good job of blending the world building into the story so that you don't get bored. I don't think we played up the Mafia vibe enough more just the feared crime lords element.
I don't usually enjoy the virgin FMC vibe especially when it's mentioned so much. However, I was able to look past that in this one because each of the three MMC's had such dramatic differences when it came to the spicy moments. I wouldn't necessarily say this is one of the spiciest books I've read, but it does deliver on the spice. It almost has a hint of Den of Vipers going on. Overall, I think the writing was engaging but did have moments that could have been better. It might would have benefitted to cut the novel down just a bit, but it does keep you engaged in the story... it's just the excess storylines that don't feel needed when the book is standalone. For the most part thought I really enjoyed it and would be interested in reading more by this author.
