Blurb:

I never asked to be an Omega.​

I’m a Fortune Fae—I see the future. But I didn’t see this coming.

My Alpha will stop at nothing to possess me and has dragged me all the way to Fortune Fae Academy to join the other wide-eyed Omegas-in-training. He believes I’ll survive--and I hope he’s right.

He also believes I’ll kneel at his feet.

He couldn’t be more wrong about that.

I don’t need three broody Betas and an asshat Alpha telling me what to do. When I graduate the Academy as an ascended Omega, I’m rejecting my mate-circle and getting the hell out of here.

Except there’s one slight problem. My Alpha has seen the future too… and he knows something I don’t.

Whatever he thinks is going to happen, his cruel smirk says I’m not going anywhere.

Fortune Fae Academy is Book 1 in a Reverse Harem Omegaverse Romance. Be warned there are obsessive males who will stop at nothing to claim their fated mate. As this is a series, book 1 ends on a cliffhanger.

Review:

I hate when a book gives you a promising premise that draws you in, has two of your favorite genres (dark and omegaverse), and makes you extremely excited that once you have the book in hand, you just cannot wait to read it. I thought that. I had so much hope for this book but I ended up hating it. I hated that the plot stood at a standstill while to female leads just runs around trying to avoid the Alpha who is out for her.

There was nothing about this story that felt memorable about this book. The female lead, not only does not have any character growth, but all she does is "I'm An OmEgA bUt I dOn'T wAnT tHe MaLe LeAd" so she just runs around to avoid him.

I mean, this is all she has done throughout the damn story. She doesn't grow. She doesn't do anything worthy of making her a character that would stand out against the many Omegaverse characters out there that have the substance that makes them worthy of reading.

I tried pushing myself to finish this book, but I ended up skimming half of the book I had read before I put it down and decided it was not worth the finish. I don't see myself finishing up this series. It is sad because I would like to know how it ends, but I don't that it is worth the torture.

Final Thought:

I mean, if you like your female character running all the time through the book and there is no plot that moves forward, then this book is something you might enjoy. If you don't, then avoid this book altogether.
