Publisher's Summary

A desperate young alpha. An older alpha with a hero complex. A forbidden love that can’t be denied.  

Young Xan Heelies knows he can never have what he truly wants: a passionate romance and happy ever after with another alpha. It’s not only forbidden by the prevailing faith of the land, but such acts are illegal.  

Urho Chase is a middle-aged alpha with a heartbreaking past. Careful, controlled, and steadfast, his friends dub him old-fashioned and staid. When Urho discovers a dangerous side to Xan’s life that he never imagined, his world is rocked, and he’s consumed by desire. The carefully sewn seams that held him together after the loss of his omega and son come apart - and so does he.

But to love each other and make a life together, Xan and Urho risk utter ruin. With the acceptance and support of Caleb, Xan’s asexual and aromantic omega and dear friend, they must find the strength to embrace danger and build the family they deserve.  

This gay-romance novel by Leta Blake is the second in the Slow Heat universe. It has a strong, happy ending and a well-crafted non-shifter omegaverse. It features alphas, betas, omegas, male pregnancy, heat, and knotting. No cheating. Content warning for brief sexual violence.

Perfect!

Well, Wow!Just wow!! This book was perfect and I loved every single minute! It broke my heart and made me cry but it was worth it and the ending was beautiful. So so very beautiful. One of the best books I read this year. I couldn't stop listening. The narrator was absolutely fantastic and brought the story and the characters to life beautifully.

I Love This Series.

I read this book several years ago and enjoyed it so much but Michael Ferraiuolo just adds that extra oomph. There are 3 main characters - Xan Heelies, Dr Urho Chase and Caleb Riggs, Xan’s omega. Then there’s Jason and Vale, book #1, who come to Virona to have their baby in safety. Xan’s cousin, Janus is also in the house with them so Ferraiuolo has to voice 6 primary characters. It doesn’t end there either but he does such an amazing job of each and every voice.
There is plenty of eroticism and a lovely romance arc that includes an asexual character, not to mention forbidden desires and love that parallels the struggles of gay relationships in an alt-universe.
I wish there were more books in this world. Revisiting Alpha Heat re-reminded me of Xan’s beta brother Ray and his Calitan omega lover Vince. I’d love their story some day.
This is a quality mpreg series, something very rare to find.
