Den of Paradise by Eryn Hawk


If you're looking for an enemies to lovers omegaverse story mixed with the single dad trope, give this a read!


From the blurb:

As the head of the most prestigious pack in the city, Caine Devereux doesn’t have the time or desire for a mate. That is until a routine visit to one of his “clubs” sparks an encounter with an omega in heat, and his resolve wavers. For the first time in his life, he’s not repulsed by the scent that greets him, so he lets instinct take over. It’s only three nights, after all? Except, what Caine doesn’t expect is for that same omega to show up on his doorstep two years later, begging for his help.

He shouldn’t get involved, he’s not interested in the archaic existence his father expected of him, but he can’t deny how the wilful little thing has captured his attention—it’s been a while since anyone dared to show him their claws.

Dylan Park is down on his luck, a single man with hardly a penny to his name, and after his first heat compels him into the arms of a powerful stranger, his life takes a turn he never anticipated. He quickly realises there’s no escaping the wolf’s den once you’ve ventured in, and he’s given no choice but to seek the leader’s aid. He’s offered a lifetime of protection, and with his baby girl in mind, Dylan signs on the dotted line, forfeiting his freedom and the chance of a bond like his parents had.

One tryst was all it took to flip his world on its axis, to tie him to an arrogant Alpha who barely tolerates his presence. But is security really worth never experiencing a fairytale ending for himself?

DEN OF PARADISE is a standalone MM non-shifter omegaverse romance with mpreg, mating bonds, and marriage of convenience. It features a morally grey Alpha whose ruthless past has tainted his perception of love, and a feisty omega forced into giving up control of his own future for the sake of his daughter’s.

This novel contains mpreg. If you want to know more about what to expect with this story, visit my website for a full, in-depth content list.


Angel's review:

I've been highly anticipating reading this story ever since it was first announced, it just sounded way too good to pass on. Plus, the cover is absolutely gorgeous!!
 
The story itself was brilliant! Den of Paradise is about Caine and Dylan, one is an Alpha and the elite of all the elites in the upper class society, and the other an omega who struggles to put food on the table and finding a place that would hire him. They are from two completely different worlds but somehow they find a way to make things work.. Eventually that is. They had a long road before they got to that point, lots of jabs, sharp barbs, slamming doors, avoidance, and Caine trying to boss Dylan around even though that was never going to work in his favor.

This story is full of angst, and has a definite enemies to lovers vibe that runs through almost the whole story. It takes them a while to admit their true feelings about each other but when they did.. Let's just say that scene was so heartfelt and beautiful! It also showed a different side to Caine, a softer more emotionally attuned guy rather than his normal aloof and cold persona he often presents himself as.

I thought this was written really well and I found Minnie to be absolutely precious! She was so adorable! I thought the plot was really well written, the culprit behind everything was a total shock in the best way! Eryn did a really good job with keeping that a surprise.
 
All in all a really fantastic enemies to lovers omegaverse book!
