As with each book in this Controller series, I’m thrilled with the growth of this author! To be honest, I normally stay away from prequel stories because most contain things I’ve already read and I already know what’s going to happen in the future so it’s makes it unenjoyable for me. That is not the case with this book! The readers get snippets of characters that we’ve read about but in new and exciting ways. We get to know them in a way we didn’t before. And then there’s a whole new sets of characters- and what phenomenal characters they are!
Even though the Omegaverse genre all shares the basic alpha/omega dynamic, the Controller series doesn’t follow blindly. Every H & h, or in this case each A & O, are very different in each book. This book is very different as well. Woodrow and Verity are in a class of their own. This story contains an age-gap romance. And yes, even though it was hard won, it does become a romance. Being an older reader myself, I do love older characters , silver foxes as the term has been coined. Woodrow is definitely a silver fox alpha in the way he’s described and the way he behaves. Verity is quite young, but certainly legal. The way her character is written leaves me rooting for her and wanting the best for her instead of cringing because of her age and antics. Verity had to grow up quickly in such a harsh family environment.
There is a very loose Cinderella-like development throughout the story, but not overbearing in the least.
Overall, this was a very enjoyable read and I’m anxious to see what adventure this author takes us readers on next.
