This series has blown me away. Many times I had to pause to take a deep breath. I love, love and love this series very much. This is book 5 in the Controller Series and Book 3 for Lily/Ethan/Ryker. You have to read at least book 3 in the series to catch up with this climax. I initially borrowed them on KU but went back to purchase all of them to support the author.

Without giving too much of this magnificent story away, in Lane's omegaverse world, there is virus that infect people and make them reveal their dynamics ( so technically, there are other interesting dynamics apart from A/O too). Lily is a willful scientist/doctor who revealed as an omega. Omegas need Controllers (Alphas) and her father chose two Alphas for her. Both of them are very dominant and they fall head over heel for her. Their actions speak louder than words. The story arch is the war between dynamics and non dynamics population. The story borders on a dark side with war, violence, blood and stuff but there is romance to soften things in between.

What I love about this series is Lane's crafting style. All her characters are so real. I ached, cried and smiled as I went through Lily and her Alphas story. Lane wrote in multiple POVs but I could actually tell who is who since they had their own complex personalities. The first A/o couples (Logan/Eloise and Hudson/Anna) also show up too :). So good to visit them again.

I really want to read more from LV Lane. Although Lily's story is completed, I still want to delve more into her worlds. And not to mention Abby (gamma) and her two protectors. If you like dark omegaverse HEA like me, you will love this book.
