HOW TO TRAIN YOUR HUMAN OMEGA is the first book in the Coveted Bonds series. We start with Clay in space. He's a pilot and is currently helping a group of scientists investigate a wormhole. Arcay is an Aldar - a seven-foot-tall purple alien. As soon as Arcay sees Clay, he knows he is an omega and wants to claim him. He kidnaps Clay and takes him back to the Aldar ship. And then the fun starts...

This was a great read, easy to follow, and with a reenactment of one of my favourite scenes from Beauty and the Beast! The cultural and language misunderstandings are amusing, as well as the inner monologues. There are also some darker topics mentioned, so be warned.

There were some parts left loose, so I'm hoping there will be an ongoing arc throughout the series. A great start to a new series that I thoroughly enjoyed. Definitely recommended by me.

A Kidnapping is Always a Big Deal
This book picks up exactly where the previous one ended. Jimmy has just made headlines for the right reason - successfully solving a case. The headlines bring someone from his past back into his life - his father, who just vanished over a decade ago. But Jimmy has no time to worry about what his father wants since one of the wealthiest families in LA has hired him to find their college age son who has been kidnapped. The kidnappers have given them until Friday to put the ransom together. Can Jimmy find the young man before time runs out?

I loved the first book in the series, and I enjoyed this one, too. The plot wasn’t quite as strong, but it kept me turning the pages the entire way through. The cast is good, but Jimmy really shines. I loved the humor, especially Jimmy’s observations in the first-person narration. As the title implies, this isn’t a cozy, but the language and violence are used well and aren’t excessive. I’m hoping to get to the third soon.
