BLURB:

After being forced to take suppressants for a year by his coach, Beau’s body is a mess. He has a debilitatingly painful heat every two weeks, and there’s no medication available to help him.

Being traded from the team that did that to him is a slap to the face. Being traded to their direct competitors, the Miami Manatees, is just the cherry on top of the sh*t sundae that has become his life.

Now Beau doesn’t just have to get through heats only an Alpha would be able to help with, but has to tolerate Emilio, the guy who doesn’t only hate him, but his Omega scent.

Which doesn’t really make sense, what with how protective and possessive the Alpha gets when Beau goes into heat…and how he keeps volunteering to help him through them.
Beau might take him up on that offer, but that doesn’t mean he’s going to fall in love.

This story contains a goofily oblivious main character and his long-suffering romantic interest, many a heat, plenty of nesting, hurt/comfort, and a dog named Bingo.

This book takes place a decade after the beginning of Alpha Omega Hockey: New York and can be read as a standalone.

REVIEW:

Beau is so blind, that he doesn’t see what’s under his nose, the real intentions Emilio has. He thinks the alpha hates his scent and hates his guts, oh boy, it’s totally the opposite.
Emilio is very attentive to everything concerning Beau. His needs are a priority for him. He’s protective AF. Beau’s mind just didn’t catch up with all Emilio was doing.

SCENT, my favorite element, gosh, it was everything, so well pictured in this story. I enjoyed it hugely!

You can read in the blurb what happened with Beau, this story is focused on Beau and Emilio, there are other wonderful characters, but the big line is these men.

eau doesn’t use the omega suppressants anymore, he got a fucked-up regulation of his heat, every two weeks he gets into a painful heat. Alpha Emilio helps him, and omfg they are hot together. Still, Beau is oblivious, he thinks he’s the only one with feelings. Yes, there’s a lack of communication!

Come on Beau you can do better! Don’t be like this, look around, open your eyes!! Don’t hurt the ones you love, please!!

What a great story, I adore it, it was super intense, intimate, and scorching.
Yes, it was a marvelous story, captivatingly written, with two wonderful characters, great sports scenery, with a grand finale, and I’m nothing talking about the sport, *wink*
