The Bond-Cut Omega

Nerds Who Knot, Book 3

De: Amy Bellows

Narrado por: Lance West

Gabe thinks he’ll never have a bond of his own. He’s bond-cut, which means his scent gland is so scarred, he can’t bond to anyone - not even his best friend, Marcus, who he’s been in love with for six years.

Gabe spends every waking moment with Marcus. They co-own a tattoo parlor and share an apartment. It was Gabe who gave Marcus the vibrant bird tattoos all over his body. But Gabe never plans to tell Marcus about his feelings. Marcus deserves a bond.

Marcus may be huge, even for an alpha, but everyone knows he’s a marshmallow at heart. He’s not going to pressure his bond-cut best friend into a romantic relationship he may not want. Until Gabe’s heat starts early, and a series of accidents lead to a dangerous pregnancy that exposes their true feelings for one another and rocks the foundation of their friendship.

In a world where bonds are everything, can love be enough on its own?

The Bond-Cut Omega is a best-friends-to-lovers romance with knotting, MPreg, manties, and hurt/comfort. It’s a companion audiobook for the Nerds Who Knot Series, but it stands alone.

My Favorite of the Series

This 3rd installment of the "Nerds" series was my favorite. I liked all three, but liked each book more than the previous, so my order of favorites would be the 3rd, then the 2nd, then the 1st book in the series. The relationship between Gabe & Marcus moved me to tears. Their desire to see the other happy is almost painfully palpable at times, and I'll definitely be consuming this one again. The whole series is quick and easy. I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a romance series that has good chemistry between the main characters, but doesn't seek to over complicate the plot with lots of unnecessary "extras."

The Bond - cut Omega

I enjoyed Marcus and Gabe’s story. Their friendship is strong, and I loved seeing it deepen into something more. The two have been friends for years and neither realizes just how deep their feelings go until one fateful night. Yet even with what happens the society norms get in the way and the two must make some hard choices. Will they fight for what they could have or let it slip through their fingers?

Not only did the main characters endear themselves to me but many of the supporting characters made an impression. The author does a wonderful job of mixing angst and romance together in this story. The characters and plot are well developed giving it substance. I was pleasantly surprised at all the distinct personalities and how they meshed so well together. Lessons were learned the hard way and we are treated to a wonderful story that will not only pull at your heartstrings but make you laugh and believe in the power of love. Narrator Lance West does a good job of bringing these characters and their world to life. I was quickly pulled in and immersed into the story.

great story!

This one isn't my favorite in the series but it's still great to listen to and Lance is an amazing narrator. thank you so much!

oh so good,and an ace side character

this was a well written and voiced book,even the side characters was well written. I cried several times and would warn that if you have adoption trauma that it could be triggering but it was carefully written and had a good solution.

So very Amy Bellows

Not my favorite Amy Bellows book, but it was so very her. We are met with a typical omegaverse world with 2 oblivious idiots so clearly I love with each other it was getting cringy. I perked up upon hearing the term 'pregnancy heat' and remembered why I love Amy Bellows. Very good world building and I did get just a little misty eyed at the warm tender feelings. I love stories like these that do unorthodox pairings. in this case an omega who cut his bonding gland as a teen and thus was unable to offer a traditional bond to the alpha he fell in love with. The whole adoption thing got kind of messy and the in-law drama felt glossed over. I would've preferred a longer story to address those points, but it is what it is. And that's a decent omegaverse romance with plenty of feels and Amy Bellows' kinky @$$ spirit.

I think my biggest qualm was that poetry from book 1 was mentioned but once again no actual prose was written!! Give me @$$ poetry AB, you tease!!!
