Knot Falling for You by Winnie Aster

💕Why choose

❤️Found family

❤️‍🩹Second chances

👻Autumn vibes

🍎Apple picking

🎃Pumpkin patches

🥰They fall first

Blurb

Persephone is trying to live the simple life as a barista in the small town of Starsfalls. When a chance encounter presents an opportunity for Seph to help her favorite bookstore, she jumps at it.

But things don't go according to plan. Seph is a self-proclaimed beta who has spent her life avoiding alphas, and working with a hunky alpha architect is not what she signed on for.

Unfortunately for her, alphas are like bobby pins.

They multiply and show up everywhere. Soon the alpha architect is joined by his packmates, who hang around the bookstore, and Seph. This poses a problem, because Seph has a big secret that no one would ever guess (or at least that's what she thinks) and now it's at risk of getting out.

When someone tries to sabotage Seph's new job, she has to decide if she can trust an alpha (or five).

There's the handy architect alpha.

The energetic, fiery alpha with golden retriever energy.

An uptight business alpha who could be persuaded to let loose.

The bookish alpha professor, who has a sensitive side.

And the billionaire, brooding alpha with a checkered past.

But no matter what, she's definitely not falling for them.

Knot Falling for You is a standalone why choose romcom. It's part of the Starsfalls Omegaverse, where HEAs are guaranteed in this cozy small town.

This is a spicy, slow burn, slice of life romance with one FMC who is the focus of her alpha MMC fated mates.
