Morgan Van Daal was an omega gymnastics legend until a devastating accident shattered her dreams, leaving her with chronic health challenges and a ruined sense of smell. Now, ten years later, she’s a sports medicine fellow who’s mastered the art of balancing ambition with avoidance—excelling at work while keeping alphas, and her own designation, at arm’s length.
But when five very different men enter her carefully constructed life, Morgan’s walls begin to crumble:
- Cal, the steadfast pheromone specialist whose partnership feels dangerously perfect.
- Wyatt, her former flame whose volatile pheromones threaten more than his coaching career.
- Alijah, the sweet beta photographer whose insecurities mirror her own.
- Joaquin, his magnetic mate who sees through her defenses.
- Owen, the enigmatic pack leader whose very presence unsettles her.
As workplace pressures mount and undeniable romantic connections deepen, Morgan must decide—can she protect her heart while proving that designations don’t determine destiny?
Citius is the first book in The Scent of Victory trilogy, a slow-burn Omegaverse reverse harem romance (MMFMMM) featuring found family and deep emotional tension. With authentic disability representation, complex pack dynamics, and a fiercely capable heroine, this sports and medical romance delivers an unforgettable journey of identity, healing, and love.
