Must-read romance: 'When an Omega Snaps' by Eve Langlais

When an Omega Snaps by Eve Langlais

What it's about (courtesy of Eve Langlais):

Leo is the calm guy. The nice guy. The one nobody screws with. So could someone explain that to Meena so she stops driving him insane—with desire.

When Meena literally throws herself at Leo and declares he's her mate, his first reaction is to deny—and run far, far away. This lion/tiger mix doesn't do drama and chaos. Problem is, once he sets eyes on her, he can't help but want the vivacious blonde with plus-sized curves, perfect for a big man like himself.

He wants her even if it breaks all his rules when it comes to women.

Wants her even if she destroys his serenity.

Wants her more than a perfectly grilled piece of steak with a dash of garlic, pepper, and salt.

Thing is, someone else wants her too.

This poor omega is about to have his world turned upside down, which means everyone better watch out because when Leo experiences love, jealousy, and frustration for the first time, he doesn't just snap—he roars!

Why you should read it: Eve Langlais' stories are always humorous and her characters' romances are one of a kind. WaOS is the third book in her Lion's Pride series, and I have to say Leo is such a cool hero, so nice, but no one messes with him... Who would mess with a Tiger? There's romance, a curvy heroine and tons of laughter.

INTERVIEW WITH EVE LANGLAIS

Tell us about Meena and her ... persistence!

Eve: Meena is a fun heroine with no boundaries or fear. While she is a bigger girl, she doesn't let that get in her way. She is enthusiastic about life, and not afraid to show it, which sometimes gets her into trouble. When she meets Leo, she is convinced he'd the man for her — and not just because when she jumps on him, he doesn't fall to the ground and whine she's too heavy. Her inner lioness says he's "the one." But this serious guy takes a little convincing, and that's where the fun and laughter begin.

What shifter would you like to be?

Eve: I'm really partial to big cat shifters. But I'm torn as to which one I'd be. I do have to say, though, that I love the stripes on a tiger.

What is the weirdest shifter combination for a couple?

Eve: lol, I've done a few of those. My Furry United Coalition has some of the oddest pairings starting with a Bunny and the Bear, a Croc and Fox and several others. Kodiak Point also had an interesting mix in Outfoxed by Love where I mated a snow fox with a moose! The best part was readers loved him. (I think it was because he had such an impressive rack. lol)

What are you currently working on?

Eve: I am just putting the finishing touches on Hell's Geek, the next Eve book in my Welcome to Hell series, and then I'm going to start work on a brand new shifter series that is a spin-off from my Kodiak Point one. I can't wait to dive in. I'm going to stray once again from the traditional shifter tropes and play with some rarely seen animals in romance. Wish me luck, lol.

Epic one-liner from When an Omega Snaps?

Eve:

Unlike her brother, Barry, he didn't fling her off.

Unlike her daddy, he didn't tell her to go bother her mother.

And unlike her last boyfriend, he didn't gasp for air and demand an ambulance.
