This has been sat on my kindle for far too long, and after reading Omega Awakening – written after this but set before – I knew I had to rectify that oversight. Whilst this wasn’t quite at the same level as OA it was still an incredibly enjoyable read. It didn’t feature as many of the dynamic traits as one would normally expect in an omegaverse – no nesting, knotting, bonds etc. – but that was due to those factors not being appropriate to the storyline.
Where this fell down a little for me, (and bear in mind I’m rating this 3.5 stars as I definitely enjoyed it), was that it focused too much on the sex/domination aspects. For me a really good omegaverse story is about more than just the sex. There are some amazing story aspects and plot devices but they were used more as a way to link sex scenes together than to move the story forward. If the author had flipped things, so that the intimate moments linked the rest of the story and enhanced rather than – no pun intended – dominated it.
If we had been given the chance to see Eloise and Logan in neutral settings, I would definitely have felt a stronger connection to them, particularly given that we only really get Eloise’s point of view in the story. That said I read this in just over a day, and it only took that long because I had to go out to work! I’m also definitely going to continue reading this series.
Taking Control is the first instalment in the Controller Series by L.V. Lane. The author builds a world rife with war and those who fight to restore the balance that was destroyed by the Copper Virus. The characters are protective, strong, controlling and hot. The plot is thrilling and full of action and suspense. This is a seriously sexy and stimulating story, with romance that is as thrilling as it is heart-wrenching.
The story follows Eloise, a rare Omega, on a mission to help save humanity from the effects of the Copper virus. In doing so she must lose her sense of self and give complete control to her Alpha, Logan. It is Logan’s duty to protect Eloise during their upcoming rescue mission. Only through extreme intimacy and control can a strong bond be formed, ensuring Eloise’s safety and the success of their mission.
This book is for mature audiences only, who enjoy Alpha-men taking control and demanding obedience from their Omegas and women who love to test their boundaries through discovering the spectacular world of love and sex. This dark, sci-fi omegaverse book is a wonderful experience for first time readers of the genre as well as die-hard fans.
This was a great twist on the aloha/omega stories I enjoy. I really liked the connection between these two and the larger sense of fighting for something important. Will definitely be looking for more from this author.
This is the beginning of a new series. It’s not overly dark, it’s a steamy read with a lot of power exchange going on. The author has done a good job with her world and character building. If you enjoy a good omegaverse book, then grab this one.

Intriguing start to a new series, whichever Alpha wins the competition, is expecting to win Eloise’s submission. Can he keep her safe while she tries to save humanity from a virus? Fast-paced read with plenty of drama, suspense and steam. Great characters with lots of depth, intense chemistry and steam. I am looking forward to more in the series.
very dark world … interested to read the next to see what changes … good introduction to the omegaverse

This is the first story in the Controller Series. This world is a world rife with war and trying to restore the balance destroyed by Copper Virus. The males are all Alpha’s who protect, controlling, dominate, strong and hot. There is plenty of action, suspense and steam. Eloise, is an Omega, on a mission to help save humanity from the Copper virus. She must lose her sense of self and give total control to her Alpha, Logan. Logan and Eloise must form a strong bond through extreme intimacy and control. Absolutely love the Omegaverse Stories.

I received an ARC from the author thru Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving my review. This book is unlike any others that I have read between Omegas and their Alphas. Eloise had no idea what was in store for her when she agreed to an alpha controller. She has the idea to not fully submit but Logan proves her wrong. There is a lot of steam between them but some usual actions of an Alpha and his Omega are not there. I thought the story was well written and the characters were great.

My word, this book was something else. It just hooked me from the beginning and kept me on the edge of my seat….. Very good and well written.
That ending, though…..

Compelling, and engaging dark omegaverse romance. This is well written with incredible, hot steam. I really enjoyed the world building, action and power exchange.
Elise is an Omega and Logan is to be her Controller on a mission. Eloise has her own agenda in this mission. They invest in each other. Will her deceit get them killed? A surprise at the end. Very good read.
I liked that this was a good storyline. I don’t read omegaverse books often, so this one surprisingly caught my attention and kept it. I like that it’s a dark romance and it has a unique spin to it. Great read.

I enjoyed this read. I do not read a ton of alternative world types of books but I really liked this one. Loved the dominance of the male lead!

It’s been a very long time since I read an Omegaverse romance and this didn’t disappoint. The alpha hero was domineering, controlling and way OTT just as he needed to be! The sex scenes were scorching hot and very erotic!
I really enjoyed it and would happily read more from this author.
