This is book one in a spin-off series. You don't have to have read the Alpha Elite series to love the book, but somethings will be more clear if you do. I'm so glad that the end of the Alpha Elite series wasn't the end of this amazingly complex world. These are excellent books that I recommend to anyone who wants a taste of what Omegaverse is all about. They are dark, emotional reads that have a lot of heart, exciting action and suspense, and a HEA that will please any romance lover.

I don't want to give anything of the plot away, so all I can tell you is that Craize and Raeni are characters that will both break your heart and give you hope. They have experienced trauma that will color every action they make and it affects their relationship. I love that Raeni isn't a broken victim, though, and instead has used her past as a way to fight and protect others. She is stronger and has so much more love to give because of it. Craize, on the other hand, has turned his trauma into action. He wants revenge in a way that makes everything else unimportant. Together they can both reach healing that neither thought was possible. The journey to their HEA is full of danger and difficult choices and that danger makes it all the more precious. This is one of those books that kept me glued to the pages and ended too soon. I can't wait to get my hands on the next one.

I was so excited to be taken back to another omegaverse series this one is the Warrior Elite Series it picks up after the Alpha Elite series and I am so here for it. Once again this arthur will make you feel like your there going through what the 2 mc's Craize Raeni go through it was just so good it was hard to put down. If you like your scifi w/dark broody guys and some very hot smexy scenes then you'll want to grab this one.

Story: Omega Raeni’s (h) is capture, experimentation, and abuse by alphas from International Science Corps (ISC) comes to an end when a rescue team attacks the station where she’s bring held. Alpha Craize (H) seems almost as bad to her when he immediately tries to claim the traumatized omega for himself as a biological response to his lifemate response being triggered by her. Raeni is convinces that she’s jumped out of the frying pan and into the fire and it takes all of Craize’s patience and efforts as an alpha to convince her that she’s his. Lota of action and adventure in this ultra-hot and steamy fated mates Omegaverse romance, including heats, rutting, claiming, knotting and more.

Audio: The narrators did an excellent job with this story and really helped bring it to life from the written word. Really glad that two narrators, a male narrator and a female narrator, were used – it makes such a difference to hear male dialogue with a male voice and female dialogue with a female voice.

I loved the narration of this book. The narrators did a great job bringing this story to life, and it was an overall pleasant listening experience. The sound was consistent throughout without distracting background noises. This was a dual narration.

I enjoyed the story, and the level of detail was fairly good. I liked the aspects of consent that were focused upon throughout. I liked the unique feature the FMC held as well.

I would say a 3/5 heat/steam meter.

Great plot, soaking wet spice. Such an emotional and primal story with interesting character dynamics. You really feel connected to the characters and the traumas they’ve been through. Great start to the series. Oh and the mmc has a extra special 🍆
