A hidden omega on borrowed time. Three men renovating her bookshop. One small town that sees everything.
Margot Burns hasn't felt her own scent in six years. Suppressants, scent checks, the daily performance of being beta - she's built an entire life around being undetectable.
Moving to Thornberry, Oregon, to open a bookshop was supposed to be a fresh start, not a countdown. But her medication is failing, her biology is waking up, and the three-man renovation crew in her shop every day makes hiding harder with every breath.
Cooper is the general contractor who speaks in blueprints and fixes her door hinges at dawn.
Theo is the beta finish carpenter who leaves hand-carved animals on her windowsill and playlists on her phone.
Ezra is the electrician who built her a window seat with a reading light before she mentioned wanting one.
All three are falling for the woman they think is beta, and none of them can explain why her scent keeps showing up in places she hasn't been.
Her suppressants are failing faster than she can hide it. The closer they get, the louder her body demands what her mind refuses to say, and when a rainstorm knocks out the power and six years of suppression collapse in a single night, every secret she's carried comes flooding out.
She came to disappear. They built her a place worth being found.
