Mads: Vol. 1 A Cash City Omegaverse Story

Mads is the second duet in the Cash City Omegaverse series. While it can be read on its own, some of the characters were first introduced in Ondine Vol. 1 and Vol. 2.

After a life-changing, devastating attack a year previous, Mads a beta, is now physically disabled, financially ruined, and dealing with a debilitating fear of alphas. He's trying to get his life together, but the first job he interviews for is with a pack of three alphas, who decide that they won't let his fear or refusal get in the way of what they want.

Acadia, a 24 year-old omega, recently ended a contract with a pack of older alphas after finding out they rejected their daughter because she was a beta. Acadia enrolls at the Alpha-Omega Placement Institute with only one preference--the pack has to have a beta.

Mads is a delicious, sexy, heartwarming story about found-family and self-discovery with a touch of mystery and grit. It is an invisible string story with a carefully woven plot.

Whether you are new to the omegaverse or a seasoned fan, Shasta de Leon's take on the genre is sure to have readers invested and captivated. The spice is top-notch and complements the story's subtle themes of sexuality, social expectation, emotional relationships, and self-discovery.

The world of Cash City is populated by a cast of diverse characters with distinct personalities and struggles. The thoughtful representation of a queer identity, positive masculinity, disability, and mental health makes this book a real stand out to readers. It is impossible to read this book and not fall in love with Mads, Acadia, and the rest of the Soto pack. Each and every member of the pack will feel like a friend by the end of the book.
