Promised to the Orc: A Fantasy Monster Romance

3 1/2 stars. Oh I do love a good Orc story! These two were brought together by a kind act long ago. The H was kind and showed her through his actions that all was not as she was led to believe all her life. The h had no idea of what was set in motion until it was revealed on a deathbed confession, who knew it would be him, her hero, that came to collect his prize. It was short but pretty good. I recommend it for an afternoon read.

I have to say that I was skeptical about this book but since I usually enjoy her books I decided to give it a try. I was so not disappointed. It was surprisingly good. The characters and the storyline were well developed. I just wanted to see Gregor made good on his promise about her landlord. Great read. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Good start to a new series. There’s a tenuous treaty between the Fae, the Orcs and the humans. But Catrin, a human, is desperate and trespasses into the Fae realm. Gregor, an Orc, was patrolling the area and prevented her from stealing from the Fae, a dangerous undertaking. But it’s too late for Catrin’s father and with his last words he condemns her to life with a monster. He promised her to an Orc. Gregor is eager to meet his promised human mate even though Catrin keeps coming into his mind. There is distrust between the races and fear between the couple but maybe they can find an HEA. Good start to a series. This is a standalone and since we were introduced to Gregor’s cousins, I expect we’ll see them in the next books.
