A summons home changes everything for Silas Starling. Can he confront his fears before it’s too late to reclaim the heart he tossed aside?

When he visits Hidden Desires and meets an omega snake shifter, Silas’s instincts tell him to run. Except he doesn't. The lure of the snake and his sexy lingerie are too much to resist.

Still reeling from the connection, Silas is dealt another shock when he learns the sexy snake is in fact his new PA, Ziggy.

Working together means hiding his attraction—until Ziggy comes up with a solution. A relationship conducted behind closed doors, with no strings—and Ziggy in control.

What could possibly go wrong?

Everything.

Silas's brother shares something that rocks the precarious emotional house of cards that is Silas’s world. Now Silas must distinguish between what his heart knows and what others believe—before it’s too late.

Silas makes a mistake which leaves him desperate. His only solution is to contrive a situation requiring all PAs and brothers to head to his horse ranch. Silas has one week to show Ziggy how he really feels, but when he's following advice from his interfering family, will a week be enough?

We’re about to find out.

Silas’s Sweetheart is book 4 in the Divergent Omegaverse series, where love always wins no matter what, even when the odds are against them.

4 out of 5 (very good)

SILAS'S SWEETHEART is the fourth book in the Divergent Omegaverse series. For the majority of this book, it takes place at the same time as Taylin's Temptation and Booker's Bliss. So while I suggest you do read those books first, it isn't 100% necessary. You just might miss little parts of the story, for example, the Omegas in the factory. That had a massive impact on me in the first book, less so in Booker's, and even less in this one.

Silas is the oldest of the brothers and a divergent. He has his concerns about taking over from Derick as the 'face' of Starling, as well as 101 concerns about working with his brothers. Throw in an Omega he met at Hidden Desires and can't get out of his mind, who turns up at his PA, and Silas has it all going on.

There were so many parts to their story that I enjoyed. Ziggy and his relationship with the other PAs, learning to be in a family, Silas learning to trust, to name just a few.

I just couldn't stretch to five stars for a couple of reasons, and let me tell you why.  Firstly, the constant bickering between the brothers. Now, I know some families are like this in real life, but for me, it's just plain exhausting, and I found myself skipping over parts where they were acting like immature Alphaholes, instead of the adults they were supposed to be. And secondly, while I enjoyed reading events from Silas and Ziggy's point of view, I felt like it took up too much of their story. They didn't even get to the ranch, something I haven't yet read about, until 70% in. Add those things together, and it's a 4-star read from me.

Maybe I will enjoy the overlap more for the next book, when I haven't read the others so close together? I don't know. What I can say is I did enjoy this story and have no hesitation in recommending it. I look forward to returning to their world and seeing how the next one falls.

Where does one start with about what I do?

I’m a writer, but I’m sure you guessed that by now if you’re reading this, hey?

What you might not know is I’m a little quirky, live in my pj’s most of the time and have cake Saturdays with my sisters every week. I dedicate a little of my time to taking care of my grandbabies and on the dedicated writing days, I like to write an eclectic mix of romance, suspense and paranormal fantasy. In the main, I’ve written gay romance but I’m branching out under another the pen name in the future, so watch this space.

I’ve got a passion for books like you would not believe and it led me down this path and now I’ve over 29 books released and heading towards releasing a whole lot more. The way my head is I never know where I’ll be headed next. I hope you’ll find a little joy in my words and follow me to see where the journey takes me and you.

If you’re interested at some point in 2021 I’ll be writing under the name JP Paton which will be F/M crime and Fantasy two of my favourite things. Be sure to keep your eyes peeled.
