BLURB:
Alpha Donovan is certain about one thing. His work recovering missing omegas who’ve been separated from their protectors is a service—to the alphas who hire him and to the omegas themselves. What he’s less confident about is his unconventional desire to be dominated by someone as strong as he is. No alpha is supposed to want that.
When Donovan arrives in North Leland, he expects it to be just another job. Find the omega, bring her home. Then he meets Judge Tarek, the gorgeous alpha determined to thwart his mission. Tarek disapproves of his job, but not his fantasies, which he’s ready and oh-so-able to fulfill.
Everything is backwards in this strange town. Wanting another alpha’s teeth in your neck is okay, but returning an omega to their rightful place isn’t? Donovan has a lot to learn, and if he can’t change his way of thinking fast enough, he’s going to lose what he’s never allowed himself to believe he could have.
Omega Replaced is an alpha/alpha novella with BDSM components in the Omega Reimagined series. It can be read as part of the series or as a standalone. This is a non-MPREG omegaverse.
REVIEW:
One thing I have absolutely loved about this series, is that the norms of alpha, omega, beta relationships are completely destroyed in it. Omegas can be with omegas, alpha with alphas, omegas and betas, women and women, men and men, it doesn’t matter. As long as you are in a consensual relationship and happy, then more power to you. And I love it. People, or shifters, should be allowed to love who they want to love, just like in life.
But in this series, as well as in life, freedom laws are coming with a price. Not all the other packs are as progressive as this pack and it’s stirring up trouble. Especially when one of the ‘royals’ still think of the old ways as well. And with all the changes, the Northern Pack is certain war is on the horizon. And Alpha Donovan is proof that things are changing. As a bounty hunter for the Southern Pack, he’s been sent to find an omega who ran from home. But when he gets to the Northern pack, he has no clue how wrong about things he was. He tries his darnedest to get the omega to come back, thinking she’s not where she should be, but he’s learning from her, that he’s the one in the wrong and it’s ok to be different. And if it means that he wants another alpha as his mate, then that’s what he should have. But his upbringing is fighting hard against it. No matter how much he wants Tarek. But between Tarek, Carmen, and the others in this pack, he’s learning that the old ways are wrong and he wants to be a part of this new life. Where he’s finally free to be who he’s meant to be and free to love who he wants to. But the punk Prince is up to no good as usual and tries to twist Donovan’s words and actions into something bad. And now Donovan has to make things right with everyone before he loses all he’s finally gained.
OH, how I wish Prince Angel would take his brother out. I’m so ready for him to be gone, or for someone to give him what he deserves. It’s his way of thinking that keeps other packs still antiquated. People don’t like change, most don’t anyway. They drag their feet and do anything possible to keep it from happening. Especially older ones who are set in their ways, or morons like Angel’s brother, who try to use their alphaness and such to take advantage of those who are ‘beneath them’. In their thinking, anyway. Everyone should be on equal footing and I’m happy to see the Northern pack sticking to the newer ways. Even though everyday is an uphill battle, they refuse to cower to anyone wanting to change it. And I’m happy to see that Donovan has gotten to see it. To see that what he wants isn’t wrong. To see that he can be happy somewhere with someone he truly wants and not have to be ashamed because he’s an alpha submitting to another one. It’s not wrong as long as they both are happy, and believe me, they both are. Yes, Donovan is making some mistakes. It’s bound to happen. He’s had years of the old ways drummed into his head. It’s not going to change overnight. But as long as he keeps trying and seeing that the new ways are better, than eventually he will get all that his heart desires.
This is a great series. I can’t wait to see what’s next. I’m hoping soon someone will take Angel’s brother down. In one form or another. I’d love to see an omega wipe the floor with him. THAT would be hilarious. But you guys should read this series. It’s a good one.
