I never really thought I’d be captured… the second most powerful Alpha in Sandor. The moment my scent reached him, overcome by the rut, he had to take me. As his mate, I can have anything my heart desires – anything he has the power to give.
The only thing I don’t have is a choice.

An interesting storyline with a compelling heroine. This story was easy to read and had a lead female who was easy to get behind. She was strong and independent until she was captured, but even after, she kept her core self feisty and intelligent. She didn’t suddenly become just an Omega who was a prisoner to her sexuality. There were some disturbing scenes with the king, but that only added to the tension of the overall story. Arias was kind of like a tortured hero so you kind of get warm feelings for him too. I thought the pace of the book was steady with just enough twists to keep the story moving and still draw you in deeper. It was definitely worth the time to read, I enjoyed these characters and the story.
Saskia is an Omega and in hiding to keep away from the Alphas. She is successful until she’s caught and claimed by Arius the alpha of Sandor. The relationship develops quickly but is still difficult for Saskia. This is a good read for anyone that likes sci-fi futuristic omegaverse reads.
OMG. This first book in the Alphas of Sandor series by Tabitha Black has some of the hottest 5-star x-rated mating sex I have read in a long long time. The main Omega, Saskia, wants only to escape and stay free, while the Alpha, Arius, wants only to find his true mate. What a collision of wills and worlds this causes as they each try to satisfy their own wants, needs and desires. But, throughout the book, there are vividly described scene after scene of the hormonal and pheremone induced mating sex between the two that is sooooo damn hot. This is a voluntary review of an Advanced Reader Copy of this book from Booksprout.
Saskia is an Omega. She’s been hiding as a beta to be able to get more education and stay at home. She is discovered by Trappers and taken to the Omega Facility. She is put immediately on display with other Omega to let Alphas choose them. Arius, the prince sees and smells her an knows instantly that she is his mate.Can he convince her that he wants a true relationship and not just to breed her? Loved the end, but with all the sex and knitting, I expected a pregnancy announcement.
I’ll give you my tl;dr review right up front: Read this book right effing now! It’s so good.
This is my favorite omegaverse book (although I don’t think that being a fan of the genre is a prereq for enjoying this book.) There are too many great things about it to list them all, but two that stand out in my mind:
Primal Possession is super, SUPER steamy, but none of the sex scenes are gratuitous. Even while the hanky-panky is taking place, the story is moving forward and the characters are changing, developing, and bonding. Not a lot of writers can pull this off, but Tabitha Black knocked it out of the park in this regard.
Second is the prose, which is beautiful, but never got in the way and never pulled me out of my immersion in the story. I’ve read this book twice now. The first time I was so wrapped up in the narrative, that I didn’t see a single word–just images playing in my mind like a movie. On the second read, I slowed down and took some time to really savor the writing itself, and I have to say, there’s not a single lazy sentence in this book.
I highly highly highly recommend this one–it’s weird, it’s dreamlike, it’s intricately constructed…oh yeah and it’s sexy as all get-out. What’s not to love? 🙂
Great read
OUTSTANDING READ
My normal go to genre is not Omegaverse. But reading the book description for Primal Possession, I just had to pick it up. Not a single part of me regrets that decision. I could not put this book down! What an outstanding job by Tabitha Black!
Smoking hot romance!
A fine line between being a strong ruler and a tyrant
—>>> Living on borrowed time for the last five years, Saskia has now been found out, rounded up as part of the latest offerings to Alphas hoping to make an Omega match. As soon as Arius gets one whiff, he realized one of his fervent prayers has finally been answered. But how this female came to be offered in the lot of Omegas was quite questionable, leading to a potentially crucial situation involving people she loved. Arius has his own issues to deal with, without risking being vulnerable to his uncle’s demented machinations. A great start to this Alphas of Sandor series!
