Vencentio by Joyee Flynn is the sixth book in the Resistant Omegas series.When the Omega Network rescued Vencentio from his pack, he was taken to the High Council Estate, hidden away and basically ignored. Occasionally, a council member would use him sexually, but that was better than having to service the entire pack. Vencentio had given up hope, until Alpha Carter Whelan arrived to gain him as his omega, but he was horrified that Vencentio was being abused by the people who should have been protecting him. Vencentio is shocked to learn about the new rules and rights regarding omegas that he was never informed about. To say that Vencentio is skeptical about Carter's motives would be mild, but when the council member returns to have sex with him, Vencentio can no longer accept being treated that way and he turns to Carter for help. Carter notifies the Omega Network and they hatch a plan and the two escape. Vencentio believes that no one acts without expecting something in return, making it difficult for him to accept help from Tristan, an omega, and others at the sanctuary. Vencentio meets Marlow, his guard and Gavin, a new comer to the pack, finding him drawn to them as much as he was attracted to Carter. Vencentio's desire Marlow, Gavin and Carter bode well for his future if he can learn to trust in their growing feelings for each other.After all the hard work the Omega Network has done to rescue and protect omegas in danger, it was sad how Vencentio seemed to get lost in the midst of all the turmoil. The way Vencentio despaired about his situation was terrible, until Carter arrived, giving him the courage and hope that his life could change. Seeing someone as world weary and despondent as Vencentio begin to open up to the possibilities of what the world had to offer was truly inspiring. I was moved by the way Carter, Marlow and Gavin never gave up on Vencentio, even when things looked bleak; they were always standing by him until he was ready to accept their love. The idea of a Sanctuary where individuals can recover until they are ready to continue their lives reminds us that things can change even if just one person is willing to help, showing others that they can make a difference.Reviewed by: TeresaOriginally posted at Fallen Angel Reviews
