 “If I could choose between them, would I want one more than the other? But no. I want them both. Wolf might devour me, but Bear will keep me safe.” 

Alpha Kings is another wonderfully steamy and erotic omegaverse from Roe Horvat. I absolutely enjoyed Wolf, Bear, and Aiken's story. 

Aiken grew up in an oppressive society; as an omega - even as the son of a king - he is beneath Alphas; however, with Wolf and Bear, he finds himself in a culture where omegas are not only respected but celebrated. He's able unlearn harmful teachings, find himself and connect with his destined mates. 

Wolf and Bear, despite their fearsome appearance, allow Aiken to not be kept as a prisoner of war; he's allowed to live as a prince under their watch, and they are not forceful in any way. They give him space him to explore and grow, patiently watching over him. 

Roe writes his omegas with so much agency over their sexuality, they own it, yet at the same time they are more than their designation. 

I loved the relationship between Wolf and Bear just as much as I loved their relationship with Aiken. The two brothers greatly respect one another - they complement one another, and with Aiken, they are complete. 

The spice! It's perfection. With all the stuff I'm dealing with at school and the January blues getting to me, I needed the heat this book brought. This book is an erotic romance by Roe, so expect lots and lots of steamy, steamy sex! I also loved that we got heat sex and a chestfeeding scene! 

While this book does take place in the Hedonist world you can totally read it as a standalone. I have not read the other books in the Hedonist series (mainly because I'm not into sharing), but I was able to enjoy Alpha Kings and didn't feel lost. 

Overall, Alpha King was an absolutely delightful story! I love the world and lore Roe created and can't recommend it enough for fans of Roe and Omegaverse.
