A Dark Omegaverse Novel Book 1: Pack Dutton Part 1 by Megan Cain

 

A Dark Omegaverse Book 1

Biology’s a bitch, and I’m the punchline.I spent the first seventeen years of my life thinking I was a beta. But when my omega designation hit, my uncle had already sold me to a cult of alpha worshiping psychos. When their leader decides to claim me as his fifth wife, I realize I’m never getting out.Until my saviors appear in the form of an FBI pack that raids the compound and saves me.Crew, Rhett, Kellan, and Jude aren’t what I expected, but they might be exactly what I need to survive the new world I’m thrown into. Omega rights are being decimated by new laws at every turn, and when you’re a trophy for the highest bidder, there’s no such thing as playing fair.But the one thing I am sure of? Pack Dutton is playing for keeps, and I’m the prize.
Pack Part 1 is a dark, why choose omegaverse novel, meaning the FMC ends up with multiple loves. It contains dark themes (including abuse, violence, and language) that may be upsetting to some readers, so please read responsibly. There are spicy scenes containing MMFMM with both MF and MM relationships.

My Review: 4/5 Stars
So this is my first omegaverse ever and I figured if I was going to try to read this type of trope then Megan Cain (aka Hannah McBride) is my best choice to do so! I’ll start off by saying that it was a great help to have an explanation of Omegaverse in the beginning as an intro and the specifics that the author was going to use. Also, trigger warnings for this book because there are definitely some darker themes. So the story follows Hazel, Jude, Crew, Rhett, and Kellan. Hazel was taken at 17 after losing her parents to live with her uncle who basically sold her to a cult. She has spent the last four years being abused and learning that she is not a beta like she thought but an omega. And omegas there are treated like property and basically sex slaves. Hazel’s days of numbered when she finally goes into heat and will be claimed by the sadistic leader. But enter, Jude, Crew, Rhett, and Kellan. Jude is a beta sent undercover to the cult to look for terrorists weapons but finds Hazel and another omega (a male) instead. And when things take a horrible turn, he knows he needs to call in his team to get them all out. Crew, Rhett, and Kellan are alphas and with Jude are one pack. They go in together to rescue Hazel and get Jude out of there. Resulting in a lot of chaos and discovering that Hazel is essentially their mate. They all belong together. But convincing Hazel that after so much abuse will be a challenge. And omega rights has changed drastically over the years. Plus there are some other things going on that makes everything a bit more sketchy. They’ll have to fight for one another to remain a family. Overall, I found the concept intriguing and I’m curious to learn more in the next book. I also did love all our main characters and their dynamics. They all balanced one another so well and really do belong together. Of course with this book being a part 1, we get a pretty big cliffhanger but I’m definitely looking forward to book 2 and more from this world!
I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
