Nova is an omega who hides her scent by chemical means, knowing if she is discovered, it means either being claimed or being sent to a breeding facility - neither of which sound like much fun. Kael is an enforcer with a bad reputation that is well deserved, who has had Nova in his sights for a while now. However, when her chemical suppressants fail, everything changes.
I enjoyed the world-building in this story and would like to see where the story arc is going. BUT I would suggest another run through by an editor. There were way too many repeated paragraphs, descriptions, and specific words. I lost count of how many times this was used in the story, but basically, every use of the words tongue and c0ck was preceded by prehensile. Every. Single. Time! So, yes, although the story was a good one, the repetition of certain words, where he was putting his hands, where her marks were, how he stroked her cheek in a gentle caress that was different to how they had first met... it took some of the enjoyment of the story away for me.
Also, this is a dark romance with Dub-Con, so if this is a trigger, please be warned.
A great ending that suggests plenty more to come. Plus, I hope we get to know Nimara and Briar in more detail. If you like dark romance and can cope with repetition, then I recommend this story.

Oooooohhhhh! I loved this! I really did!
The thing I loved the most, was there wasn't that info dump you get in some fantasy books. When Crystal gets pulled into the rose bush and spat out the other side, she has to learn everything about where she now is. And as she learns, we learn. So, it comes in dribs and drabs, just enough for you to process that bit and move on to the next. Loved that, it meant I could fully engage with the characters, instead of trying to keep up with information. Excellent world building!
I loved that Crystal has her say in the first person, and the Paladins, her group of protectors at this point, have their say in the third. Different, yes, but I loved that it was.
And I say at this point, because given what happens at the end (which, to be honest I saw coming, but hey, still loved it!) things will change in future books.
I've not tagged it as romance or multi partner YET, cos there isn't any romance, and the only smexy times is in dreams, for both Crystal and the guys. But it's coming, oh yes, it's a-coming!
Obviously, things aren't smooth sailing, and I've an idea who might be wanting to cause all this trouble. I'm fairly certain they aren't done yet.
So, when is the next one out? Cos I NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEED it!
This is the second book of Cameron's I tried to read. I didn't much care for the first one, but this?? Bloody loved it!
