Absolutely perfect

As a polyamorous individual, reading about my dynamic in a book FULL of dynamics is so sweet. The spiciness is immaculate, the sweetness is overwhelming. I read dark fiction a lot and Sierra's books are the best to consume when I need a pick-me-up. Nicky is a sensational character, as is everyone in the pack. It had some of my favorite stakes in it (crazy ex-boyfriend meets protective new partners) and it is just so well done. My crops are watered, my taxes are paid, my glass is full. I am so happy to have finally read this book and I can't recommend it enough.

Overall I really enjoyed this book. Extremely spicy with many varied scenes, but interesting plot and emotional development as well.

The only thing that frustrated me a bit was the queer representation. Two characters are non-binary. One is introduced with they/them pronouns, and throughout the whole book with so much development otherwise nothing about their identity is mentioned again. While I loved that it is accepted it’s unreasonable to think they never think about or discuss their identity with their partners at all. Besides the pronouns I didn’t find their characterization and experience to be different from a cis woman’s. Another is introduced with he/they pronouns, and they/them pronouns are not used for them once in the entire text as far as I saw, nor is there any other mention of him being non-binary or having any experience other than what you’d expect for a cis man except one instance of being referred to as Mx. instead of Mr. I’m queer and it’s a big part of my life. Thinking about and exploring my identity brings me joy and would even in a world where it was completely normalized. It’s just weird and felt like the author including non-binary people with no understanding of the non-binary experience specifically or trans experience overall.

One final, minor gripe is that the pack has a tortie cat who is male, but the fact that the uniqueness and extreme rarity of this is never mentioned makes me assume it was a complete oversight and lack of knowledge on the author and editor’s parts.

A spicy and sweet Omegaverse book with a whole pack

Reviewed in the United States on September 5, 2023

Nicky Marino is content with her life as a night librarian and cuddling her cat in the quiet peace of her apartment. Her life becomes a whirlwind when she meets the gorgeous beta Billie and their pack. Nicky finds herself falling not only for the wild beta but all of their pack. It overwhelms her that everything happens so fast, and then her ex returns to the city to try to get her back. He won't take no for an answer, and Nicky doesn't want to bring the danger to the pack, but at the same time, she can't imagine staying away from them.

This is the first big spicy book in an Omegaverse duet called Nicky and the Night Owls. When I say spicy, it is super steamy with several hot scenes involving various kinks and genders of partners. Nicky is adorable and a sweet librarian. I love all the pack members. Each one is very different and beautiful in their own ways. I loved seeing how each of the pack connects with Nicky and with one another. This is a sweet romance with caring and attentive partners. Love does happen fast, but it was believable. It left me with warm happy fuzzies.

Also, I have to add that I really loved the different chapter heading illustrations for each character. Gorgeous.

This story was so good! It was soft and sweet with that perfect touch of both spice and suspense!

I love Nicky’s character and can absolutely relate to her relationship traumas (obv minus the ABO aspects). She was soft and sweet but also had a stubborn streak that made her seem so real. Like someone I’d befriend in town.

And the pack! They all have such well defined and unique personalities! I adore the different aspects of both gender and designation within their pack. I also really like that, despite this being Nicky’s story, the pack still revolves around their Omega while balancing the relationships with each other. There was so much feeling with each of them!

I look forward to reading part two and seeing what happens next!

Sweet lovestory with some surprises

Reviewed in Germany on April 25, 2023

I have read various Omegaverse books that follow a similar theme before. Nowadays, it's become common to feature betas as main characters. I welcome this change because love and attention should not only be reserved for alphas and omegas, while betas are relegated to the sidelines. This addition makes the story more realistic.

Usually, I'm not a big fan of FF content, and I prefer MM instead. However, if FF is well-executed, I don't mind it. In my opinion, love is love, and it can be shared however you want with whoever you want. That's it.

What I really appreciate about this story is how inclusive it is, with an emphasis on caring, consent, and the sharing of love in any way possible. This aspect of the story is a huge positive for me. I was also happy to see that the characters are not young adults but in their thirties with life experience. Although I don't mind young people, being 33 years old myself, I can relate better to characters with more life experience.

I can completely relate to Nicky because she is similar to me in many ways. She's a bit shy, insecure, lacks self-confidence, and has had some bad experiences in the past. Her love of books and desire to work in a library at night is something I could see myself doing, although I never pursued a librarian education. However, I'm a night owl through and through, and that's when I'm at my best. One difference between us is that she struggles with not knowing what she wants and not communicating her issues with the pack enough.

For example, she knew she was in love with them early on, but she was too afraid to talk about it. I understand the anxiety part because I also struggle with anxiety, but I hate staying in that state. The only way to overcome something like that is to confront the issue head-on and talk about it. I get that it's not easy for Nicky, but I prefer to know where I stand and in which direction things are moving.

Some things were pretty clear to me, but Nicky was still insecure about them. For instance, when the pack surprised her with her own room, it was an action that spoke volumes and said, "We want you to stay." However, she didn't see it as a sign that they wanted her to be part of the pack. She needs them to spell it out for her. Again, I understand insecurity because I also need to know that I'm important to people, and it's soothing to hear them say it. But I always communicate my needs from the beginning and also make sure to listen to others' needs, even if it's just with friends. They are significant to me, too. It wasn't a major issue for me because, as I said, I can understand her reasoning, but it can be annoying sometimes.

Overall, it was a great start to the story, and I was pleasantly surprised. I had previously read Allie's and Sidney's story from this author, and I wasn't impressed by it. Therefore, I was unsure if I wanted to read Nicky's story. But I'm glad I did.

I loved all the characters because they were unique and had their own struggles. Billie was refreshing and bubbly, and I liked her immediately. She was a force of nature to others. Tony was caring and very invested in well-being, both physically and emotionally. The same goes for Gabe, who was sweet with all of them and had a special bond with Hana. She was also special in the story, being more cautious than the others, which is often used in RH Omegaverse. But it fits well and was well-explained for me. And then there's Jasper, the lovable omega with a passion for baking that I adored.

As usual, there were some parts that I could predict easily, but I also had some surprises along the way. Overall, the story hit all the right points for me. The chemistry was on point, the emotions and feelings were big, the plot line was solid, and the characters were unique.

I appreciated that the author didn't end the story with a cliffhanger, and gave readers the option to stop at that point. Although there was a bonus chapter at the end that served as a cliffhanger for part two, there was a warning beforehand. Fortunately, the second part is already out, so I can continue reading after finishing this review.

I’m a big fan of omegaverse and was so excited to read this after reading the blurb, and it more than lived up to my hopes. This book is gorgeous, so well written and made up of amazing characters. I really liked and appreciated the LGBTQIA+ representation, and I loved the Alpha/Beta/Omega dynamics (especially the Beta - I feel that Beta’s are under appreciated in omegaverse unless you know the right authors to look for).

I also appreciated that Sierra gives you a little warning/note at the end before the last chapter, in case you want to avoid a cliffhanger whilst waiting for part two to come out.

All in all a fantastic book. I highly recommend!

This is definitely one of my absolute favourite books that I’ve read this year.

Ok. This book is absolutely brilliant and beautiful.

My first time reading a full Omegaverse novel and I can’t get enough.

I love the fact that there’s a healthy, balanced and happy polyamorous relationship in this book.
