Merissa (13956 KP) rated Alpha's Curvy Obsession (Primal Alphas #8) in Books
Mar 30, 2026 (Updated Mar 30, 2026)
ALPHA'S CURVY OBSESSION is novella number 8 in the Primal Alphas series. As far as I can tell, they are all standalone, so reading them in any order is fine.
This is a fast-paced, insta-love between an art collector and an artist. He is older, established, and a billionaire. She is twenty-two, just starting out in life, and living on ramen noodles. He has been obsessed for three years, but only now gets to meet her properly.
The premise of the story is an intriguing one, but it never really fulfils its promise. A lot is skimmed over, which I know is usually the way with a novella, but for the topics covered, I feel it should have more depth. It is definitely more focused on the steamy scenes rather than the story. And maybe it was how I read it, but the timeline didn't fully match up. She wins the award, he invites her to his gallery, she goes into heat for three days, and is pregnant by the end of it. But then the next chapter says six months later, and she's only four-and-a-half months pregnant? Maybe I missed something? I would also have liked the cover to represent the FMC.
Anyway, if you're after a steamy omegaverse, then this might be just what you wanted.

The Problem (Single Dad Support Group #1) by Piper Scott
The Problem is the first book in the Single Dad Support Group series, and we start of with Laurence and Alex. Laurence is a member of the group, dad to sixteen-year-old Matthew. Alex is friends with one of the members, but doesn't know much about it INCLUDING the members. Alex and Laurence meet at an exhibition showing Alex's work. Sparks fly, and colours light up Alex's world.
I loved this foray into an Omegaverse different from others I have read. There was no shifting, no wolves, just Alphas and Omegas. The explanation of Alex's synesthesia was done in a way that was helpful, without it seeming as just a piece of information! It formed part of the story, integral to Alex, and that was just perfect. His own realisation of what the colours meant was was of the best scenes for me.
This was hot and steamy, with a dash of Daddy kink; plenty of laughs; some heartbreak and confusion; and lots of hints about what and who will come in the next book. I can't wait. This was well written, with no editing or grammatical errors that I noticed. I thoroughly enjoyed every word, and I will be reading more in this series!

Merissa (13956 KP) rated The Sterling Acquisition (Manufactured Mates #1) in Books
Sep 1, 2025
THE STERLING ACQUISITION is the first book in the Manufactured Mates series, and introduces you to a dystopian Omegaverse. Dante works for Gensyn and has gone to the SVI sector, all in the name of corporate espionage. As part of that plan, he meets with Leo, an alpha who is well-known for having a troublesome omega, Orion. Leo is supposed to be his 'in' for the espionage, but instead, Dante becomes obsessed with Orion. What follows is a story of (literally) how one person can change the other.
This was a great, different story that I not only enjoyed but also appreciated. I don't know if I'd survive in that world, especially not in the corporate world, as their corporate-speak left me cold. In fact, I nearly gave up on the story because I didn't like it that much! Stick with it - it gets better, I promise. The corporate-speak is there for a reason, and you will easily see the difference it marks as the story progresses.
Evenly paced and well written, this story hooked me in. The main characters are great, and are also ably supported by side characters, all of whom have hidden depths. Well, most of them. I look forward to returning to this world and seeing more of how the Primal Triad develops.

Merissa (13956 KP) rated Nursing the Alpha in Books
Sep 9, 2025
NURSING THE ALPHA is a standalone story that I really hope expands into a series. It tells the story of Flynn, who was a surrogate for friends, but they decided they wanted a clean break from him so there wouldn't be mixed feelings. Which was great (!) but left him lactating, which most alphas dislike. So he helped out as a wet nurse for premature babies. He meets Seth one night as he's on his way home, literally falling into his lap. He has a little leakage though, and although one alpha turns away in disgust, Seth steps up and rescues him. Seth thinks Flynn is sweet and innocent. Little does he know...
Oh, but I loved this story. It is both sweet and smutty, innocent and filthy, and I am here for it! The reactions on both sides to certain situations were spot on and completely believable. I loved how Flynn's freaky side came out to play, and how he made Seth pay for lying to him. But most of all, I loved how they were together. So hot and it was caring, even when they indulged in primal play.
I love this author's Daddy books, and now it seems as though I love her omegaverse too! Loved every yummy moment and HIGHLY RECOMMENDED by me.

Merissa (13956 KP) rated Chimera's Prisoner (Prime Omegaverse #6) in Books
Jun 10, 2025
CHIMERA'S PRISONER is the sixth book in the Prime Omegaverse series, and if you haven't figured it out yet, the trigger warnings are there for a reason. This is a dark monster romance with dub-con. If that's not your thing, move along.
Amelia is a nurse who has been captured by the felines for transportation to a breeding centre. Funnily enough, she's none too keen on the idea. When Mother Nature sends a storm to help out, she is quick to take advantage. Unfortunately for her, Vex is flying overhead, patrolling his territory, when he spots her and scents her.
I loved Vex! Yes, he was an Alpha, but he also had a heart. And although he knew from the beginning that Amelia was his, he wasn't obnoxious about it either, unlike some of the others I've read.
With some high heat, this story also had emotions, connections, and action. The Council are none too pleased with Vex claiming Amelia and will do anything to retrieve her.
I wasn't too keen on the last book, but I did enjoy this one a lot more. Chapter 16 was repeated in my copy, but on the whole, there were fewer repetitions than in previous stories. I am hoping for all the stories to connect at some point, but am enjoying the different scenarios as they each conclude.
