The Alpha's Forbidden Omega: An MM Omegaverse Best Friend's Son Romance (SOS Omegaverse Series Book 1) Kindle Edition

4.2 out of 5 stars 309 ratings

Additional edit and re-release June 2019
New cover October 2019
Alpha businessman Carter Christian knows he's somewhat of a recluse, but he likes living out in the country with only the rare visitor. When his best friend and business partner suddenly asks him to house his omega son--a son Carter never even knew about-- for a short time, Carter is shocked, wary, and intrigued all at the same time. Omegas are rare, and until then, Carter had never met one. For his friend, however, he's willing to do it, even though the act requires that Carter take rut suppressants for the duration of the omega's stay.
Nineteen-year-old omega Jackson is tired of being hidden away. His parents plan to mate him to some alpha he doesn't even know, and until then he has to stay with his father's best friend. He finds he doesn't mind the latter so much because Carter listens to him and even tries to help Jackson research omegas. But, all too soon, the time comes for Jackson to mate the strange alpha. Only he doesn't want that alpha--he wants the alpha he's been living with who treats him like a person rather than something to be owned. Jackson doesn't care that Carter's old enough to be his father, but Carter isn't willing to break his friend's trust. Learning his parents may have been right about a government conspiracy against omegas only makes things more complicated for the two men who seem destined to be kept apart.

    I LOVED this book!

    This had all the wonderful things I want in ABO/Omegaverse stories - strong and protective alpha, sweet virgin omega, delicious chemistry between the two, knotting, scenting, claiming (although I wish we had gotten to read about the marking, it was only discussed), NESTING, and then you also have age gap as a big aspect in this story, which is just the icing on the yummy cake for me.

    I loved how Jackson and Carter were together. I loved Carter's protectiveness, how he wanted the best for Jackson right from the start. I love that Jackson was the one to put things out in the open, and I loved their first time together. Sweet, sexy, and perfect.

    I am also really interested in the world building here - what exactly IS going on with the omegas in the US, why is the government so interested in them. A lot of ABO'verse, omegas are either revered or ranked lower than trash, so it's interesting to see that in this one the omegas are possibly being eliminated - and for what reason? I also need to know what happened to Ben, one of Jackson's omega friends, and now of course I want to read Maddox and David's full story.

    Excellent first story in this series, I really hope there is more soon!

    And sexy. And full of the usual omega/alpha tropes we all love. The mystery concerning the government and what they're doing with all the omegas remains a mystery at the end. I guess that's for the next book.

    I loved the universe the author has created for us to enjoy. Jackson and Carter’s story is captivating as it progresses from Carter doing a favor for his friends to he and Jackson becoming a couple.

    I’ll be starting Book 2 in a few minutes and can’t wait to see what the whole government coverup with Omegas is all about!

    It felt rushed & choppy at times! Other times it was great witty banter & can sense some connection loved that! It might get into more depth on the connections & mystery of the government in the sequel! It was good not great, but definitely not the worse lol! The chemistry between our main characters was okay too! Quick read! Obviously loved the forbidden romance trope the best!

    I really liked this book. It’s a different take on the Omegaverse and I like it. Can’t wait to read more of this series and see what is it that the government is trying to do. I felt bad for Ben, hopefully there’s a book for him and we will know what happened. I’ll be reading David’s story right away

    wow, this was amazing and the type of A/B/O I like to read about. This one has a story, a very intriguing story and I definitely need more. But first, it has all the things I like - strong Alpha's, sweet Omega's, knotting and nesting. I want to know more about the government's agenda about Omega's. Where is Ben? and I definitely want David and Maddoxs' story.

    I've just reread this book only to find out I haven't done a review.. shame on me.. but, better late than never.. lol! Anyway, this book has so many mysteries and twists and turns I couldn't put it down. It was a wonderful read altogether and the characters are well built. I can't wait for more!
  • Reviewed in the United States on August 7, 2022
    I really enjoyed this story! This is such a different stance on Alpha/Omega/Beta. I’ve read similar but nothing quite like this one. Carter and Jackson make a great couple and I can’t wait to read the next book!

    Reviewed in Australia on January 15, 2021
    This is a new author and series to me and I have found myself quite intrigued and must read the next book. I found the story and characters enjoyable. There were enough steamy scenes but there was a deeper connection between the two. I recommend giving this book a go if you are into this genre.
