Roommates’ Alpha by Lacey Daize

Owen has been his cousin’s protector since they were children, but now that the other man is mated, he doesn’t know what to do.

Owen has spent most of his life as a safe space and confidant for his cousin, Ryan. However, Ryan’s recent mating has left Owen adrift, unsure of his place in the world.
As if that wasn’t enough, four new upstairs roommates means that Owen also has to figure out how he fits into the new household dynamic—a task made more difficult by the fact that they’re all incredibly handsome men.
He knows the best plan is to do what he’s always done: stick to his basement room and don’t impose himself on the upstairs roommates. So why why do they keep trying to include him?

Is there really a place for him, or is it just wishful thinking?
