His Gentle Omega by Raiven Matthews

My Review

Have been curious to hear of Ashers' long lost brother since HIS DADDY OMEGA. What was not prepared for was this emotional journey that simply put pure raw brilliance. You are thrown right into the journey Shay must take with his son Lucas to be free from the man who had broken him for so long. Bennet is that perfect man to help Shay learn to be whole once again. Their is some spice, but this is a slow burn as it should be. These men do fall for each other, but that doesn't mean Shay is completely okay at the end. Guess what, though he shouldn't be he has endured too much for this to be not a long journey. I hope that in future books from this series, we will he able to see more of his growth.

This is not an easy read, but it's a powerful and lasting one. Raiven handled these tough issues in a manner that respects these characters and shows that it takes time to heal. You may get those resources to move forward, but that doesn't make it easy to do so. Truly amazing read.

Book overview

Shay Pierce

How could I love my fated mate when I couldn’t love myself?

Escaping with my young son from an abusive relationship, I had one plan to keep my son and I safe. Getting to the safety of my estranged brother and mending our rift. I never imagined I would find my fated mate at the worst possible time in my life. My priorities had to be rebuilding my life, breaking the mate bond that had been an epic mistake, keeping my son safe, and putting all my broken pieces back together. Easier said than done. My life was a train wreck and dragging Bennett into my mess wasn’t fair to either of us. I was barely hanging on, and I knew I couldn’t be the Alpha he deserved. So, I had to let him go.

They say you find love in the most unexpected places.

Finding my fated mate in the bruised and battered Alpha lying in the Emergency Room wasn’t the stuff my dreams were made of. But one look into Shay’s haunted eyes and I knew he and his adorable son were my future. Giving him the space he asked for was the hardest thing I had ever done, especially with him being my new next-door neighbor. I promised to give him the time he needed to heal, even if it meant keeping my pregnancy from him. But when his ex finds him, I’ll fight for what is mine.
