Desperately Wanting

Knot Her Goal by Ari Wright

March 9, 2024 by katie71483 2 Comments

Ari Wright has written a delightful bonbon of an Omegaverse why choose romance in Knot Her Goal. It is the first in a series of standalone sports romances set in an Omegaverse world.

I just finished a buddy read with some romancelandia friends and I gotta share em with y’all as well. (Because I know none of you are my mother) First – what is Why Choose and what is ABO? Why Choose is the new term for Reverse Harem, which in romance books involves […]
