Lilibet Bombshell's Reviews > Queen of Hearts

The wake for Elena’s dad, head of the Amante crime family, isn’t even over before she catches her brother selling her off to a pack over the phone when her father had always told her she would have a choice when it came to finally packing up. Now not even trusting the bodyguard she’s in love with, she swallows her pride and decides to run and hide in the sex club/casino known as the High Roller. At least at the High Roller she can still make her own choices.

Elena’s a striking contrast of an omega, and I fell in love with her immediately. She’s a hopeless romantic, but she’s no swooning doormat. She wants to know what it is to love and be loved in return, but you had better do it with some respect for her as a person or not do it all. She can be spiteful and vindictive, which are two things I love seeing in FMCs and never get to see enough of. She’s your good girl if you’re good to her, but she’s a hellion if you get on her bad side. I was here for it.

Her pack is nicely complicated too, full of family conflict, resentment, emotional trauma, and hurt feelings that have lain buried under the guise of duty. There is no sword-crossing action in this one, but there is a very nice twin sandwich scene.

The plot is where this one gets a touch wiggly, but I really think the characters make up for so much of it. I enjoyed the whole book a great deal.
