Four pro hockey alphas, one driven figure skating omega, and an unexpected blizzard that turns up the heat…

After dumping the ex who saw my skating career as competition, all I want is some time to perfect my routine before my family sucks me into their quaint but corny Christmas traditions.

Instead, the rink I rented to have all to myself is invaded by the Reapers. A pack of four impossibly hot, competitive alphas that plays for the fiercest professional hockey team in the region.

Whatever. Ive dealt with worse than sharing the ice for a few hours, even though Im having to share with alphas who keep shooting hungry looks at me from across the rink. Alphas who keep calling me Cotton Candy.

And so what if they smell like the most decadent candles at the nesting shop? Im a pro at getting into the zone and tuning out distractions.

At least until a blizzard gets us all stranded together, and my heat picks the worst possible time to kick in. Because Im just lucky that way.

As the Reapers rally around me to turn our hometown community center into a halfway decent nest to help me ride out my heat with no strings attached, one thing becomes abundantly clear.

These alphas definitely dont mind sharing.

And theyre playing for keeps.

This low-angst, high-heat WhyChoose OV romance has nesting, marking, scent matching, fated mates, four cocky hockey alphas, and an omega who doesnt have to choose between love and her dreams.

Half-marked and desperate, I never thought Id find a pack willing to take me on.

Then I meet the Carver pack through Temporary Bonds, an agency dedicated to matching omegas in need with packs for no-strings-attached arrangements. These alphas and their beta are everything Ive ever wantedkind, successful, and determined to ease my agonizing heats.

I mean, one of these alphas literally wrote the book on all things omega health, and hes drop dead gorgeous to boot.

Too good to be true? Definitely.

Especially when I discover the final pack member is none other than Leon.

The alpha who abandoned me years ago.

Now hes back, swearing hes changed and begging for a second chance. All I know is this heat will change everything. But as for putting my heart on the line?

Thats definitely knot happening again.

I thought Id finally found my fairy tale with the Blackwood Pack.

Four drop-dead gorgeous and filthy rich alphas, ready to claim me as their own?

It was a dream come true.

Until I presented myself to them on our mating night and all four of them turned and walked away, leaving me half-marked and completely humiliated.

Im clearly not the one they want.

And they blame me for not being the omega who ran away from them.

I try everything I learned in omega finishing school to make my new alphas change their minds, but with my first unmedicated heat approaching fast, Im starting to think plastic smiles, a perfectly decorated nest, and gourmet meals arent going to be enough to thaw these frigid hearts.

You know what? Fine. They dont want the perfect omega?

Ill become their pretty little nightmare instead.
