Getting Close to the Omega (Cloverleah Pack #5) Lisa Oliver
reviewed by: Claudia
Dean
Weir has finally found happiness in his position as Omega wolf of the
Cloverleah pack. He has his friends, his work and his art and he has
never looked for anything else. Badly abused by his ex-home pack and
Alpha, Dean keeps his head down and stays out of trouble. That is,
until his mate joins the pack.
Matthew
Charmichael is over a hundred years old and has been a lone wolf for
longer than he can remember. Joining the Cloverleah pack after he
heard they were having trouble with another wolf shifter, Matthew is
overjoyed to find his mate is the cute little Omega of the small
pack. But Dean's past, and the constant attacks on the pack from the
mysterious Kylan, could mean that Matthew and Dean won't get their
HEA after all. Can Dean overcome his past, and embrace the powers
that a claimed Omega is purported to have, or will his ex-pack kill
him before he and Matthew have a chance.
I was honored when Bec invited me to review this book, and I’m so glad I accepted, since it’s a great story!
I didn’t read the first ones in the series, but even if this book can be read as a standalone, after reading Matthew and Dean's story, it’s impossible not to feel drawn to the Cloverleah pack member’s… so yeah, now I must read the first 4 books from this series. Yay!
Dean’s past abuse left him feeling incomplete, and even in the middle of his pack, he still feels like he’s never good enough. Finding Matthew is like having the chance at a new start so it was great to see how Matthew’s support changed Dean’s life and the way he saw himself.
I was drawn to Dean since the first pages of the story and even while he felt he was not worthy, the fact that he had survived by any means necessary his ex-alpha's abuse, and the trauma caused by it, made me respect that sweet little Omega strength!
Matthew is a powerful Alpha, and even though he has the strength to have his own pack, he prefers to join Cloverleah pack when he heard that they’re having problems with another shifter. Imagine his surprise when he finds his mate in his new pack and all the struggles they have to face to be together.
I loved to see how finding his true mate helped Dean to become the Omega he was destined to be, and how this small pack joined forces to help and protect each other.
I’m sure you’ll love this story as much as I did and will be anxious for the next one in the series! Thanks Lisa for a great story and Thanks Bec for allowing me to do this review!

NOW FOR THE EXCERPT:
“You
matter to me,” Matthew said. “One day you will share your
personal horrors with me, purely and simply because eventually we
won’t have any secrets from each other. You will trust that I am
strong enough to handle it, and that I will comfort you when you need
me to. Those things come with time.” Matthew lifted his arms,
encouraging Dean’s hands to come back up to his shoulders. As
though he couldn’t get enough, Dean went back to tracing Matthew’s
collar bone.
Matthew
swallowed a moan and forced himself to keep speaking. “But right
now, in this moment, I need you to know, that to me, any scars you
have are a testament to your strength and ability to survive. And you
have no idea how thankful I am that you did survive and that you feel
comfortable enough with me to sit here and touch me like this.”
“You
make me calm, like I have found my center,” Dean explained. “I
don’t know why, but when I’m around you I don’t have any fear,
of anything.” He looked up and Matthew was blasted by the pure need
in Dean’s eyes. “Could you, would you mind maybe kissing me
again, please?”
“As
often as you like,” Matthew promised as he leaned over and
carefully brushed his lips over Dean’s mouth.
AWWWW ;) HERE IS MORE ABOUT LISA, AS WELL AS HER SOCIAL LINKS:
Lisa
Oliver had been writing non-fiction books for years when visions of
half dressed, buff men started invading her dreams. Unable to resist
the lure of her stories, Lisa decided to switch to fiction books, and
now stories about her men clamor to get out from under her
fingertips.
When
Lisa is not writing, she is usually reading with a cup of tea always
at hand. Her grown children and grandchildren sometimes try and pry
her away from the computer and have found that the best way to do it,
is to promise her chocolate. Lisa will do anything for chocolate.
Lisa
loves to hear from her readers and other writers. You can friend her
on Facebook here, or email her directly at yoursintuitively@gmail.com.
