💎rivals to lovers
💎male & female omegas
💎pack of alphas, betas, and omegas
Mama always says I'm her miracle baby, but even miracles come at a cost.
The price? My hand in marriage to a mafia heir I've never met. It's hard to complain when my future father-in-law has provided me with everything I could ever want or need growing up. From the best education to a beautiful home for Mama and me to all the materialistic possessions my heart could desire.
Only, I'm an omega who wants a pack.
I don't even know my intended's designation.
A decision to attend one last event before my heat and inevitable marriage turns out to be the worst mistake of my life when I'm kidnapped by a rival family.
Not once.

I'm kidnapped three times by three different rival families.
The worst part of all is how I'm falling for these men who have played a part in my capture and imprisonment.
Can scent matches really trump kidnapping, arranged marriages, and rival families?

Shannon KayI just finished An Academic Affair by Jodi McAlister. I read it in less than 2 days, because I couldn't put it down! I can't remember the last time I read such a riveting contemporary romance.
It's an academic rivals to lovers romance with a marriage of convenience, and set in Australia.
As a bonus, Anne of the Island is my favorite, and the Lewis and Tolkein references endeared me further.

EmilyThank you St. Martin’s Press | Wednesday Books and NetGalley for the e-ARC of The Rival.
It absolutely pains me to say that I didn’t like this book. The premise sounded so cute - academic rivals to lovers, in the same vein as Divine Rivals, but set it at a college? SIGN ME UP. Except...rivals where? Our main characters kept saying they hated each other...is the hate in the room with us? At MOST, they were competitive friends.
This book starts off on the right foot. We meet Sadie on her first day of college on her way to a club meeting for the school zine. Writing for the zine has been, quite literally, her dream her entire life, and no one - not even her high school academic “rival” (who by the way was waitlisted and is going to a completely different school) - was going to get in her way. Except of course Seb, her “rival” actually got in and wants the coveted zine editor position as well.
Maybe I would’ve believed more in the story if either of our main characters felt real to me. As our main pov character, Sadie never felt like she had any real depth to her, and no amount of the author telling us how cool and funny and engaging Seb was could actually make me believe it. When he wasn’t actively engaged in the story, I forgot about him. And when he was on page, I found him bothersome and wished he would just leave Sadie alone.
ALl in all, this rivals to lovers book just wasn’t for me. 2.5 rounded up to 3 stars.
