Rejected and alone.
Shay Nicholls has lost everything, including three babies before they were even born. Abandoned by his alpha as a failure and believing he has no hope of a future, he can’t even take the final step he needs to end his miserable existence.
Nick Carmichael has been trapped in a life he hates for far too long. When he finds the broken and desperate omega, he feels life has finally handed him the chance to become the mate he wants and eagerly steps up to care for the terrified young man.
Shay doesn’t trust alphas, even ones with gentle hands and a kind smile, but when tragedy strikes and Nick gets hurt, Shay realizes he’s been very wrong. Unfortunately, it might just be too late.
REVIEW:
Ok. Possible triggers. Miscarriages I know can be hard on some, contemplating suicide, physical abuse, rape, mental abuse, attempted murder, etc. This is a hard story to read but worth it.
When I met Shay, my heart ached as much as Jonathan’s and everyone else’s did. They were all stuck wanting to help this sweet omega but no one could do anything because of crappy omega rights. But Shay had been given Nick’s number and had been calling but had been afraid to talk and Nick was sick of it. And then scared when he heard on the other end, the person being hurt. When he was on his way to visit Jonathan and Lorne, he thought he saw someone on the bridge and discovered it was Shay. And Shay was wanting to end it all. But Nick needed to help. Somehow, someway, it was time Shay finally got some help. But it wasn’t as easy as it sounds. By helping Shay, some bad things happened, including Nick almost losing his life, which finally put things in perspective for Shay and Nick both. And it was time to make some changes. But will it be in time?
I have been DYING for someone to get to Shay. And I couldn’t imagine a more perfect alpha for Shay than Nick. With Nick’s past life, he knew what it was to hate being an alpha and was so sympathetic to omegas. He would fight to his last breath if necessary for omegas to have the rights they deserve. And that was what Shay needed. But trust doesn’t come easy for Shay….or Nick to be honest. And the truth was, everything seemed to come out wrong for both of them. Every time they tried to talk to each other, they just seemed to stick their feet in their mouths. But sometimes it takes something bad to make people see what’s right in front of them. I hate that anything bad happened at all, but if it makes them get their heads out of their butts…..But these two needed each other like air. They couldn’t be more perfect for each other. I wanted them to fix this so bad and get it right. They needed love from someone just for them. The first kisses, the intimate touches. Someone who actually cared.
This is a very hard story. Bring the tissues for real. But sometimes the most beautiful things come out of the most harsh circumstances. Look at diamonds and pearls. I’m just happy for the beautiful in this. It was definitely needed. I love Shay so much.
