Beta Gets The Alpha
A collection of fics where the underdog beta breaks the mold and wins the heart (and heat) of the alpha. No pheromones, no fate, just chemistry. Expect slow burns, unexpected pairings, and betas who prove you don’t need to be an omega to get the alpha.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5
I choose to treat this as the final chapter in the "Second Best" book. I thought it was a cute chapter and made me add another star to the overall rating.

Summary
Being the middle sister is hard, but it's even harder when one is the only Beta among Omegas. Laura has lived with the knowledge that she would only ever be an Alpha second choice for the last 29 years. But that doesn't stop her from dreaming about the what if's until one day she finds herself in a position she would've never thought possible: In the arms of an Alpha, but not just any. Daniel Blake is everything an Alpha should be, handsome and successful but things are not what they seem.
(My forth book and I still suck at summaries. Sorry.)

Review:
⭐️⭐️⭐️/5
I was very excited to start this book. Especially once I found out that instead of an omega love interest it was going to be a beta. In this universe omega’s, so far, have not had any careers or goals. So I knew if a Beta was the main character than they would have to have a job and probably wouldn’t be a teenage bride.
And I was not disappointed. YAY! 🥳
The main character Laura, was just as insecure just like the previous female main characters but for a different reason. The premise of this book was that Omegas are the crème de la crème and Betas are just an afterthought. so most if not all of Laura's insecurities arise from not feeling like she was worthy of an Alphas attention. Considering the Alphas she was in contact with I can't imagine why she thought they were worthy to breath the same air as her. But you know what, It's not my story....
Laura was also pretty strong and independent and was able to come up with a pretty decent plan/future for herself regardless of if she did it alone or with a partner.
I always like more dynamic main characters cause, even though this story really just boiled down to another baby plot, the characters still had other problems and goals to focus on. Actually the fact that Laura was strong on her own helped even out the baby plot point.
