This one was on the darker side and a pretty decent read!

We have the FMC Demi who has been abused by the pack she was sold to and is on the run. She takes a bus to a town in Vermont (I believe) and runs into an alpha almost immediately. He wants to help her but she spooks and runs away. She unknowingly runs into several members of his pack that night (small town) and eventually runs into their beta. He realizes she is going into heat and tries to slow things down before his pack gets there to help.

Some of the pack are able to help and they end up transferring her to their house where a pack member who is a doctor ends up giving her medicine at her request to stop her heat.

The pack is drawn to Demi right away and they want to keep her. They know she is running from something and are willing to do anything to keep her safe.

Some of this book was super cringe, like how she was using a toy before she got the medicine in the beginning and the toy is like in her (I have to describe this I am sorry) and she is like talking and hugging the guys like nothing is going on. At one point she ran and hugged one. I laughed, I am sorry.

The plot itself was pretty good, I just wasn't super drawn to finishing the series. Overall, a good read but check TW.

Soft(ish) DNF. The plot/setup has potential, but the FMC doesn’t feel like she has much personality (to me) beyond Omega instincts, trauma, and a dash of not like other girls. I don’t know if I’d go so far as to say it’s plot driven, more that the characters just don’t show much besides what’s required to support the plot.

## Tropes
-Why choose
-Omegaverse
-Found family

## 📖 My Thoughts
I was hooked onto the FMCs story from the start, she was in a horrible situation and needed an out. I like how she met some of the MMCs, it was unusual and kept me interested. I liked how the MMCs slowly found out more about her past life. Some of the MMCs felt a bit 2D to me, considering the length of the story, I would have liked to get to know them more. I felt the ending coming and was disappointed it came before I knew the characters more. 

## ⚠️ Triggers
- Rape
- Panic attacks/disorders
- Domestic abuse
- Sexual assault
- Violence
- Death of parent
- Body shaming
- Confinement

## 🌶️ Spice
Spice happened early due to heat. Spice was written well but I was expecting maybe a bit more filth considering it was why choose. Big emphasis on consent

Def enjoyed. Beginning setup meeting her guys felt very similar to another book where the guys had a restaurant and bar, gym, and ran into them by a dumpster. But past that, it developed into its own.

Ready to start part 2 asap

Bs censorship. Just say killed instead of unalived. You're already talking about domestic violence and sexual assault.
