Heat Haven

Heat Haven Omegaverse, Book 1

By: Sarah Blue

Narrated by: Jameson Adams, Scarlett Dorian

Welcome to Heat Haven, a facility where Omegas can safely go through their heat alongside pre-screened and carefully selected Alphas.

Emily: My heat is getting closer. With heat suppressants off the table and no pack to call my own in sight, Heat Haven seems to be my only option. Can I be vulnerable enough for Alphas I don't know to help me in my time of need?

Griffin: I want a pack and an Omega to cherish. The problem? I don't like most people and I work too much. Where better to meet someone than a place where you contractually participate in a heat with strangers?

Omega and Alpha pheromones ignite in this spicy novella. With a chance encounter and an upcoming heat, can Emily and Griffin find what they're looking for in each other?

Contains mature themes.

Spicy with no real plot

There is No plot in this book at all. Just a sex club to find your mates. That doesn’t make this a bad book. But it’s just a book with a specific vibe. Not bad, not great

Super cute!

Such a cute story with great narrators. I kinda love that there was a strong Boston accent. It brought so much character to Griffin without having needless extra words or time. Same with the Georgia accent. You just understand the personalities before anything else needs to be said.

The only reason I didn’t give the story 5 stars is because I do wish the storyline after that first heat was expanded. I also wish that there was a prologue including the last bit of her first pack and explaining her medical stuff. BUT! I really enjoyed it without all of that anyway.

What a spicy Omegaverse!

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Spice: 🌶🌶🌶🌶.5
Performance: 🎧🎧🎧🎧.25

This is a very fast burn, short, spicy omegaverse. Instead to Omega's Obsession first. Which is book 2 in the Heat Haven series and I loved it. So I thought I'd try this one next. A little out of order, but there all standalones. So, you can read them in any order. This one was not as great as the 2nd book, but it was good. Very steamy and very fast paced.

Tropes:
- Omegaverse
- Why Choose (MMFMM)
- Knotting
- Heats
- Nesting
- Found Family
- Forming of Pack
- Southern Omega
- British Alpha
- Boston Alpha
- Elevator Good Times
- Multiple POV's

The epilogue was long. I've 50 min and it was introducing/meeting the 2 newest Alpha's who are a pack and partners. It was like the elevator scene again, minus the actual fun, but as soon as they showed up at her house she was in heat? It wasn't a few days like normally
Or was a long epilogue involving multiple POV"s. I just wish we could have had more to these Alpha's lives besides Griffin's. Seemed lacking in those ways. Needing a connection with these characters would have made it so much better. But I get it's a very spicy, fast insta-lust/love book.

The narrators did a great job. I loved the Southern accent the female narrator had. Plus, she played a great Boston Alpha. That voice was great. The name narrator did a great job with the male accents. He played a British Alpha well, and a Boston Alpha. I wish he would have done the Southern accent for Emily, but he didn't. I loved both their rough, gritty voice of Griffin. The growls and roughness in their voice. It was a pretty good performance by them both.

straight smutt

This book is mostly just one sx scene after another with no real story in it -no world or character building, back story or current story other than going through a heat. I was definitely disappointed with the ending also, it's a very rushed thrown together meet more men and have a HEA.
if you are looking for just smutt the scenes were written well.
Don't get me wrong I love me smutt but I personally need a story to go along with it. i didnt not like it just I think not my cup of tea.
Narration was very good.

The accents!!

I really enjoyed this audio. The accents really brought the characters to life. I loved the story so I knew I’d enjoy that aspect. The narrators really did a great job enhancing it.

I liked it!

This was a good quick read. If you like Heat Haven, I recommend Heat Clinic by Alexis B Osborne. It is similar with a fuller plot. The audiobook narration was pretty good for this one.

Loved this!!

5 ⭐️'s!! I don't know how I just found this book, but I totally loved it! I think omega verse's are my new favorite! Definitely listen or read this one, it is absolutely worth it!

Do you want Mark Wahlberg to talk dirty to you?

Mannnnn. So my husband loves Mark Wahlberg, this book has a narrator who does a phenomenal Boston accent JUST LIKE MARK. To say I was uncomfortable is an understatement hahaha. All I could see was Mark while reading and I just know the next movie I watch with him is going to be awkward lol.

Onto the story. I did not expect this to get to hot so damn fast. Like almost immediately lol. This was a very different take on omegas and heat facilities and I liked it! The reason I gave the story 3 stars though was because I felt like the other men in this story did not get nearly any attention and were just added so Griffin could have a break from sex haha.
I will definitely be reading more from this author though!

Another fun omegaverse

I love both characters and the story is right up the alley of omegaverse so if you like omegaverse it will be your jam. Love author and all the books I have listened to so far, this is my fourth book. Lots of spice in her books which I love so if thats not your thing dont bother reading and then complain about spice level, if you read this review then you know what you what your walking into. My only critic is that I really dislike the female narrators voice. The overacting and over dramatization during spicy scenes so completely ruins the whole moment. I just hate it, its like so overkill it makes it sound silly. She does fine otherwise and Georgia accident is good, but why dont narrators know that overacting like that is gross during spicy scene. Male narrator did great. And I do think both narrators did good when doing narration for opposite sex, but wish they would alternate and just have MN do MC lines and FN to FMC lines, not sure why they dont do that for this book.
