An average read
The book introduces us to a world filled with mystery and suspense, which initially intrigued me. The author's writing style is decent, making it easy to follow along. However, I couldn't help but feel that the pacing was a bit uneven. The story took some time to gain momentum, and at certain points, it felt like it was dragging on. I wished for a more consistent and engaging flow throughout.The characters, though interesting in concept, lacked depth and development. I struggled to connect with them on a deeper level, which made it difficult to fully invest in their journeys. Additionally, some of their actions and decisions felt forced and unnatural, which further hindered my overall enjoyment.On the positive side, the book does have its moments of excitement and intrigue. The author introduces intriguing plot twists that kept me guessing, and the underlying mystery held potential for an engaging series. The ending left me curious about what's to come in future installments.In conclusion, "Wanted" is a decent start to the Knotted Series, but it falls short of its potential. While it has its share of suspenseful moments, the pacing and character development issues prevent it from truly standing out. However, if you're a fan of mystery and don't mind investing in a series, you might find it worth giving a shot.

WANTED
THIS STORY IS ABOVE THE LAW ON RELATIONSHIPS. IN THE BOOK, WANTED BY LAX M I H A R I H ARAN, PASSION GIVES WAY TO THE FRUITS OF PASSION. THIS MEANS NO ONE CAN BE BOUGHT OR SOLD AND NO ONE CAN TALK ABOUT IT. THIS IS A TRUE BELIEF OF GOD THAT EXISTS IN ALL CULTURES SO THERE ARE MANY PERSONS WHO THINK TOGETHER. THIS MIGHT NOT BODE WELL IN ALL OF ONE'S RELATIONSHIPS SO WANTED LASTS AS LONG AS IT STARTS.

Ummm No...
OK. I have no idea how much I paid for this or if this was a free promo but it's 9 chapters long and and 5 of those chapters are sex scenes. The entire chapter each is a sex scene. That might mean this is just a promo for the next book which is a continuation but that's what an excerpt is for or the synopsis. Why try to make a short book out of it? To trick me into buying the next book? Nope that's likely to make me NOT buy the next book

this is only part of a book and poorly written at that.
All else aside when I had read 60 % of the Kindle book that is where the book stops unfinished! Next comes a teaser piece of next book in the series (the actual continuation of the book) and then comes samples of other books. The opening plot seems god; a son seeking revenge on a father who did not recognise him as his child and abused the childs mother. But it is soo poorly written, when the son finds his father and sees what he has become since their last encounter 10 years ago, he realise this is what he can become if he does not take care, maybee if this avenue had been explored instead of beeing one sentence repeted twice or trice, the caracters would not feel soo onedimensional . It all takes place in a very hierarcial and misogynist society that is suposed to bee earth changed catastrofcally 30 years ago. Nothing is told about this other than people changed and became destined for their role in society. There is also a lot of sex scenes explicit but rather mechanically described. I got this book for free as a todays deal, but I will not waste my time on the rest of series, even if it was also available for free.

Excellent prequel
Short and to the point of how Zeus came to power. This read is not as long as you think it stops about 60% into the number of pages into the book and starts with an excerpt into the next book. I have to admit I feel really cheated when that occurs! I may start reflecting that in my ratings from here on out. I am expecting a full length novel not a longish short story with an abrupt ending. My me feel like I am paying for advertisements for the next novels!

I feel like it was incomplete.
I know this was a prequel to a longer story, but I can't make up my mind if it's wore continuing, I don't like any of the characters.

Great story to get into with a vivid whole set up
A whole new world order has been set and it's already turning heads.To be an omega means practical enslavement to Lucy and she's a hot headed spitfire of a m/c. She is strong willed which she needs to be to handle this Alpha through what has to be hard on both participants (pun intended).He's the typical Alphahole you expect but given time he thoroughly keeps you entertained and peeking at the innermost Alpha who wants to be accepted and loved.

Great quick read
Loved it! Yet again another great book from Laxmi. Zeus and Lucy have intrigued me and I can't wait for the next book. I think its a unique perspective on the alpha mating. I have yet to be disappointed by anything from this amazing author

A new epic tale of alphas searching for their omegas
Zeus is the natural born son of the general of London. He has come to kill his father for raping his mother and wants to destroy the legacy of what his father built. Ethan is the second of the general and asks Zeus to be his second. Once the task is done, he arranges with an Omega for her to be in charge of the omegas in the city. She is given the power to deny the alphas if the omegas choose not to lie with them. Zeus is challenged by his half brother who he had no idea existed before then. He wins the fight but doesn’t kill him. Will that be a mistake?Lucia is the omega daughter to the Czar of Moscow, she and her sister have been told that the Vikings have taken the city and a few omegas along with the princesses, will be used as a bargaining chip so the rest of the citizens in the city will be safe. Lucy doesn’t want to be at the mercy of just any alpha or Viking, so she plans to escape on a ship bound for Scotland where she hopes to gain the protection of the leader there.There is a lot of heat during the opening sentences of this book as Zeus dreams of his dream omega, also when Lucy dreams of her alpha. Have a cool drink handy and maybe a towel to wipe your brow.I can’t wait to read the rest of the series.

Not a bad start
This the prequel to the The Knotted Omega Series.Genetic mutation brought on by global warming has divided the human race into three subspecies: alphas the predators and the protectors, omegas the nurturers, and betas who fall somewhere in between.Zeus is what the author likes to call an “alphahole” Also known as the “Bastard of the East End” he is here to kill his father the General.He hates him with a passion. Zeus’s mother was made pregnant by him, and rather than take her for a mate, he threw her into the streets, where she then sold herself so that her son could survive!! So that makes him the heir to his father’s estate.Zeus wants nothing to do with it, but he will take command and lead this community the way it was suppose to be run.Lucy is a Russian princess, but as an omega she has no rights, her father might have trained her to be a warrior, a free thinker and an independent woman, but with the Vikings at their door, her father bargains with them. And Lucy is just a bargaining chip!!And a warning, this does end on a cliffhanger!!
