Five years ago I found my mate… and he has no idea.

I’ve spent my entire life doing two things: training to be a ballet dancer, and longing for a scent-match. My feet bled for one, and my heart bled for the other.

Then my first heat hit, and my deepest dream became my darkest secret.

I scent-matched with my best friend and ran.

It’s been five years since I last saw him—happily in someone else’s arms—and I couldn’t bear to break his heart.

But that was before. Before he joined my dance company, anger and grief in his eyes. Before I matched with the rest of his pack, whose scents drive me to the best kind of madness. And before I begged for forgiveness, even if I can never forgive myself.

But the more time I spend with them, the more I see the future I always wanted. A love that sweeps me away, keeps me safe, and never lets me go.

Every day, I fall deeper, and as I do, the more they see the truth: No matter how long it’s been, I never gave up on that dream. Knot for a moment.

Knot for This Moment:

I received an e-arc of Knot for a Moment for review. This has in no way influenced my thoughts and feelings about this book.

I’ve been really omegaverse the last year or so, and when I started this series earlier this year I knew I was going to love it. So I jumped at the chance to read Knot for a Moment by Devyn Sinclair early. This is the third book in the Slate City Omegaverse series and I’ve been wanting this book for a while.

Knot for a Moment is full of emotion, second chances and hot and steamy scenes. From the start of this one, I knew that we were in for a ride. It’s one of those omegaverse books that has a little bit of everything. We have our omega who are craving a pack, we have the Alpha who don’t feel fully complete yet and we have complicated relationships that need to be sorted. It’s sweet, and full of dirty talk and then you throw in some high-intensity scenes and you have a fantastic book.

Knot for a Moment follows Sloane our omega, Principal Dancer at her ballet school, and the one that got away. Sloane knows who her omega is, but something happened and she had to let him go, knowing it would tear her apart. What she didn’t expect was to see him again. And what she didn’t expect to follow was a pack.

Asher is the one who got away. He is a fellow dancer and when he returns, he isn’t just the alpha that she wants but her scent match. They have a lot of history together and a lot of unresolved issues. But they are also made for each other. They fit each other well, and from the start, we can see how much they care about one another. But Asher has a pack of his own, the thing that they don’t all have is an Omega and when Sloane scent matches them all, they know that they are made for another one.

I didn’t love how quickly things moved between Sloane and Asher. They have this complex history and I would have loved them to talk even a little more because they became hot and sweaty. This really wasn’t a massive deal and didn’t affect my enjoyment of the book.

We can’t forget about the other Alphas now, can we? Gabriel, Roman and Jace are the 3 Alpahas that complete the pack along with Sloane and Asher. Each of her men and different but they complete her. They are all there in different ways. Whether it’s caring for her after she comes home from dance, or helping her during her heat. They are the perfect combo of being gentlemen and caring for her, and then all of them having their kinks and treating Sloane like the omega she is.

Another thing was, I wished there was more dancing. At the start, we got a good chunk of it and then I felt that it went to the background. I love books where there is some sort of arts background. Whether it’s dance or music, it makes me love a book. And I wish there was more of it in Knot for a Moment. Again it didn’t affect my enjoyment of the book, so much but I would have liked the book even more if there was more of a balance.

I really enjoyed Devlyn Sinclair’s writing quite a lot, it’s just really easy to read and so easy to fall into. This book is the perfect combination of being intense with high stakes to being soft and calm. I love that we get to see Sloane be an omega, but also she isn’t treated like she always needs to be protected. I also think that each of the alphas had a good spotlight on them. It just made for a fantastic book. Sometimes I feel that in why choose, someone gets left behind and I didn’t feel that here.

Overall, I really enjoyed reading Knot for a Moment by Devyn Sinclair. It was sexy, and sweet plus kept me wanting more. Sloane and her men are perfect for each other, and I cannot wait to see what their future holds. This is the perfect addition to the Slate City Omegaverse series and I’m so excited to see whose pack we will be seeing next. If you are looking for an omegaverse series that is both sweet with high-stakes, then this one might just be for you.
