Knot for a moment: Devyn Sinclair

Knot for a moment is an omegaverse reverse harem in the Slate City series. It’s read as a standalone. Some characters in previous books of the series are mentioned, but you don’t have to read them in order.

Sloane is an omega whose passion is dancing ballet. She’s the best because she works hard and does her job, even in the most challenging circumstances. Sloan pours her effort into dancing because she doesn’t have anyone at home waiting for her. As an omega, they usually find comfort in their nest and alphas, but Sloan has neither. (She has a small nest in her studio, but nothing like her dream nest.) Although Sloan yearns for companionship and being worshiped like the goddess she is, she knows that can’t happen because she’s found her fated mate, and he was happy in someone else’s arms.
Sloan shows her insecurities and lack of faith in her 'would have been mate’s relationship' by saying, “ I couldn’t bear a look of disappointment when he just found happiness.”

And again, when she talks negatively about herself:
“Somehow, I was never enough. Not even to wait for while f*cking walking.”
It made me sad for her, and I wondered what had happened for her to think that way. Her self-esteem wasn’t great, and dancers are notorious for being ridiculed for not being perfect in their dancing.

Asher is an alpha, and Sloan says he hadn’t had a good childhood and that there was a lot of pain in his past. He could’ve turned out much differently than the actual outcome, not in a good way.
Asher is a sweet alpha in a pack of other alphas–Jace, Roman, and Gabriel. Each guy has their own traits that make them fit perfectly into the story with Sloan.
The guys get to know Sloan, and it's as if they've known her their entire lives. They fit easily and genuinely. The alphas warm up to Sloan and get vulnerable with sensitive information about themselves pretty quickly.

Knot for a Moment is a sweet, wholesome story where you see ¾ of the story where the pack is in bliss. They spend most of the book getting to know Sloan, making up for lost time, and building a concrete foundation to build upon. It's a sweet story with a bit of plot and a good amount of spice.

There’s lots of:
