About this listen
Omega wolf Jason and his family have been on the run for six years, to keep Jason from being forcefully mated to his pack's cruel Alpha. When a brutal attack leaves his father desperately injured, Jason comes to the conclusion that it's time to call it quits. Terrified as he is to deliver himself into an Alpha's power, he makes a deal to mate with the Alpha of the richest pack in the country, and discovers that he'd rather mate the Alpha's handsome Head of Security. When Mac captures the feral shifter that climbed the walls surrounding the Mercy Hills Pack enclave, he feels for the young shifter's fear, though he knows his Alpha isn't the sort of shifter Jason believes he is. He'd be happy to see the two mated, except that, as time goes by, it becomes more and more difficult to deny his own feelings for the young, damaged Omega. A sudden turn of events sees Mac and Jason mated and expecting, but Jason's old pack isn't done with them yet.

Story
Collin didn't think vampires were real - until he met Talon. Talon's fangs are razor sharp, and his touch feels like destiny. He makes Collin's knees go weak and his brain go soft. When Talon bites him, Collin forgets everything - even that Talon's coven wants him dead. Him and his adopted siblings. It's something about those birth marks they share, something about a prophecy.

I have to stop replaying the one night I spent with my rival. Trouble is, that white-hot encounter with the other quarterback answered a lot of questions I’ve had about myself, but it also led me into this mess where he hates me. I never showed up for our second date. Since, well, life happened, and the worst part is he’ll never know how much that night meant to me.

Getting into the vampire-only detective unit was the easy part. What’s going to be more difficult is dealing with my new partner - an ancient vampire who keeps threatening to eat me. The unit has never had a human in it. Marcus - or, as I like to call him: Fangy McFangface - would really prefer to keep it that way. He’s grumpy, short-tempered, and broody, but I have a way with words, and I know he’s starting to like me, even if he swears he’s not.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
the ending was confusing...
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
Jason's status as an omega put him in an unenviable position, especially within the pack he was born in. Because of actions made by their alpha, Jason's parents took him and fled their pack to protect Jason from the alpha. In the world Byrde has created, humans are aware of the existence of shifters and regulate them strictly - forcing them to live in enclaves (gated shifter-only communities), require them to file travel plans that must be approved prior to them leaving their enclaves, enforce curfews, and a host of other rules that left me ill. To protect him from their alpha and other unscrupulous alphas who could and would cause him harm, Jason's parents lived within the human world, breaking the law by pretending to be human and working & living among them, moving whenever the alpha's enforcers tracked them down.
When the story starts, Jason has been awoken by his dad telling him that it's time to run again and Byrde does a nice job of creating tension in the scene and keeping the reader or listener on edge as we flee with Jason and his dad several times before Jason finds himself in the Mercy Hills Pack's enclave, caught trespassing by their security team. As Jason tries to make the best of a less than ideal situation (because it's not necessarily fair to call it a bad situation compared to his old pack), we find out some of the differences in how his pack treated alphas and how the Mercy Hills Pack treats them. As Jason and his dad try to settle into life at Mercy Hills, Jason prepares himself mentally to become the alpha's mate. In the interim, he begins to develop feelings for Mac, the alpha's best friend and head of the pack enforcers. Fortunately for the alpha, Mac returns Jason's feelings and Abel is able to encourage Jason to seduce Mac -- yeah, that was an amusing exchange. Unfortunately for all involved, Jason's former alpha isn't through with him and demands that Jason be returned to him. What follows is a rather fascinating court case as Jason's former alpha tries to use the human court system to settle a contract dispute which treats Jason like chattel. Talk about leaving a bad taste in your mouth. Ugh! I won't go into the ultimate decision and the fallout from that, but I will say that it made for some good white-knuckle-reading (or listening) as I sat riveted to the story, waiting to see how it would all play out.
As I said, I'm still relatively new to Mpreg, so I cannot comment on how it compares to other books in the genre. What I will say is that for someone testing out the genre, Mating the Omega is a good book to start with. I believe there is an ick factor that the uninitiated associate with Mpreg, as well as an "I can't wrap my head around that" mindset that can be hard to overcome. To tell the truth, the first Mpreg book I read wasn't advertised as being Mpreg and was actually part of the story's twist and even as much as I loved the author, I probably would have given it a pass had I known that. But because the Mpreg was only one facet of the story and not the main focus, the author eased the reader into it. For me, Mating the Omega has a similar feel. While the Mpreg is far more obvious and a major plot point, the pregnancy itself isn't the sole focus of the story and doesn't overpower the bond and love that forms between Jason and Mac. My only actual complaint is that I do wish more had been discussed about Jason's omega power and how it was supposed to benefit and/or be misused by his mate as that was one of the reasons his old alpha was said to want him so badly. However, that plot thread seemed to have been left hanging - unless I completely missed that conversation - and I'm intrigued as to what it was that made him a True Omega.
As for the narration, Russo did a great job of creating identifiable voices for the many characters and conveying their emotions. I especially liked how well he was able to show Jason's fear, anxiety, happiness, relief, and love, as well as his times of strength and his times of submission. Jason is a fascinating character as a less-submissive-than-he-should-be omega and Russo captures that wonderfully. I do hope that the next book in the series will be available via audio as I would love to listen to Abel find his mate.
NOTE: I listened to this title via Audible's Romance Package.
A good choice for dipping your toes into Mpreg

My only issue is the ending felt abrupt. The bad guy comes back last minute, which was unnecessary but I think we all saw coming well enough, the omega gets away and suddenly it's I guess ok with no confirmation about the family or the bad guy or anything so I think the ending could have done with a bit more closing or stopped before this random and abrupt tidbit at the end that feels more tagged on because it's what a bad guy would do opposed to actually thought out. It was left too open ended for my satisfaction.
Also, we never find out what this mysterious power is and it's minor but it's annoying. Like something that was never resolved or its something that was mentioned to be a plot point but then never explained and was dumped despite having the set up.
I actually really liked this despite my minor complaints and I intend to read/ listen to the rest of the series.
cute
