My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Academic omega Cooper Plant has been fighting up the academic world for the last ten years and is bidding for tenure in the Engineering department of Barrington University. Everything seems to be resting on the result of the battle robot competition. In the first round, he is pitted against his rival alpha Raymond Jessup. Then Cooper goes into heat earlier than normal and he has to send for an ESA from Bangers & Mash but the one they send is the man he has just beaten in the first round - Ray. Alpha Ray dreams of owning the electronics shop he works at but in order to afford that he needs to win the competition. Having lost he decides to take what money he can and so takes the emergency ESA call in the same hotel.
I enjoyed this story with the smack talk, the bully Alpha and the way that over time Cooper and Ray changed their opinion of each other. I loved the way that they were able to work together to combine the best of each other as well as the involvement of Ray's manager who was a lovely old man. I'm sure the author had to do a great deal of research to write this book although I have to admit I wouldn't know if what has been written was right or wrong. Easy to read, feel and understand. This was an MM story with mature content set in the omegaverse.
