BLURB:
Running from an abusive alpha, terrified, and abandoned in the middle of a snowstorm, Bo Rawlings goes into premature labor. Desperate to try and save the life of his unborn child, he makes one last attempt to get to the omega clinic, but his old car has other ideas.
Gabe Johnson, exhausted from being on call as a veterinarian and depressed at the thought of another lonely Christmas, nearly gets run off the road by a driver who loses control of his car.
When he finds that the driver is actually a young omega about to give birth all his protective instincts rush in and as he battles frantically to save their lives, he realizes all he wants is to take the little family home and claim them for his own.
Bo has never had the Christmas he’s always wanted. Gabe gave up on the holidays a long time ago. But just as they both think that it’s their turn to experience the season of miracles, Bo’s old alpha finds them, and unless Gabe can manage the impossible, all their Christmas dreams will melt like snow
REVIEW:
Alphas and omegas. My faves. A beautiful omega in labor and on the run, and an ummated veterinarian alpha, who’s immediately in love with this strong omega. Even though to, he’s weak. But to survive what he’s been through and still going through, it makes him strong and I love it.
Bo didn’t know how he was going to get to the clinic with all the snow, but he has no choice. He’s in labor early and for their safety, he has to get moving. But between the contractions and the snow, he slides off the road and is terrified of what is going to happen to both of them. But Christmas must have some miracles in store for Bo, because another alpha, who’s sweet as can be, and a vet, helps Bo through the delivery and taking care of his daughter. Once the snow has calmed, Gabe has to rush Bo to the clinic due to complications, and things become very complicated. Gabe gets treated like crap and even punched and doesn’t know why until his friend explains and Gabe is determined then and there, he will never let anyone else hurt a hair on their heads every again. He was going to make Bo his. But between the old alpha showing up and Gabe not wording things correctly, things just seem to be falling apart. Can Christmas pull out another miracle or will Gabe continue to suffer in that empty house alone?
I hate alphaholes. Here again is another example of how strong omegas are. Dealing with an abusive and messed up situation, Bo goes on the downlow to get things taken care of. Especially when he finds out his parents could care less about him and when he finds out he’s pregnant. But he does what he needs to do and escapes and will do all he can to make sure this baby, which he hated at first, knows it’s loved and will always be loved and treated correctly. That is some damn fine strength. I love my omegas. The strong willed, strong hearted and just plain strong in almost anything, even when beaten down. But I love Gabe too. Because Gabe is a good alpha. He cares about omega and their rights and wants what is best for Bo and his baby. Even if that means he claims him as property in order to get him away from an abusive relationship. He may mess up his words a lot and apologize a lot, but his heart is pure gold and he’s trying his best to make it right. That’s the way it should be. Equal footing, equal ground. And someone who cares, not someone trying to be all alpha on anyone they meet.
I love these stories. I’m going about them a little backwards, since I’ve already done book 4, but it’s nice to go back and see how things got started. I can’t wait to read the other two.
