BLURB:
Doss Callaway had never dreamed he’d have a family since he was basically infertile. After all, what Alpha would want an Omega who couldn’t father a child? It was why he’d become an obstetrician, to help other Omegas find a way to have the life he would never have.
Landon Odell had been forced to put his carefree life on hold when his parents had died and he’d become the guardian to his three-year-old baby brother. Now that his brother was grown, Landon hoped to never have that kind of responsibility again.
Fate had other plans for these two. The only problem – so does the Hart’s Medical Center stalker and accomplice. Will Doss and Landon be able to find a future together, or will one of them die when the stalker kills for the first time?
Warning: Rape is involved in this story, although the actual act is off screen. Although each couple in this series gets their own HEA, you should read the entire series for the ongoing story arc!
REVIEW:
Ok, to kill Shea or not to……that is the question. Lol. Just when I thought I had it figured out, I may have it wrong. I do have to warn you in this one, there are triggers. There is a rape in this one, kidnapping, attempted murder and a murder. So if any triggers you, be careful.
Ob/gyn Doss has wanted a family for a long time, but being told he’s sterile is like a death sentence for him. Who wants an omega who can’t have children. Well, he never expects to get his wish, but he does when a victim of rape comes in and he has to fix it. But misunderstandings cause problems between Doss and Landon before they can get off the ground. Doss thinking Landon is the bad guy, when he’s just the brother, had heated words coming out everywhere. But after Landon’s brother is fixed, things seem to be ok. Until the alpha comes back to finish what he started. And while this is going on, the stalker has delivered not one, but two bouquets. Doss doesn’t know the seriousness of it until he reads the cards, and he’s not happy. He knows he has to save Landon’s brother by providing a hiding place, but it’s just went into overdrive when he figures out who the one placing the flowers is. And now he may not be able to get to know Landon like he wants before he ends up dead.
I kind of had the one figured out, because of the limp that Shale gave her. I just didn’t know her name. But now I’m not so sure about the main one. I still think I kind of know, but now I’m not so sure. The hard part for me, was trying to figure out how Doss got wrapped up in this. Because technically, he’s sterile and did nothing wrong, according to what the guidelines of the stalkers are. And he’s trying to help omegas with their pregnancies and such. But that’s where it went wrong, I guess. Instead of making sure they stay home, barefoot and pregnant, Doss is trying to help omegas have better lives. And Landon. He has no issue whatsoever in this game, unless it comes to his brother. Fortunately, they had a plan to work around that, so hopefully the stalker won’t show up on his behalf as well. But things are definitely twisted in this one. Really twisted.
While kidnapped, Doss finds out some things, but it’s not enough to figure out who the main one is. So who knows what will be coming next. I just hope it’s not going to end up with someone dead or something. Because these stalkers are nuts.
But it does make for a heck of a story and series.
