Then they got together and the rest of the book devolved into porn with little plot development. You could have shaved about 100 pages and four overlong sex scenes off this book and it would have bumped it into mid 3 star territory. The sex scenes were way too long and frankly exhausting. Let a girl sleep!
Itβs a shame really, this could have been a decent lead book into a great romantasy series.

You can quote on me on this... I will ALWAYS be down to read a "scary on the outside/cinnamon-roll on the inside" MMC and Orek was that and more. And Sorcha is such a dedicated, older sister who takes on so much responsibility because she thinks she has to earn her place. But then Orek comes along and not only tells her her true worth, but also SHOWS her. Ugh. This is couple goals. Oh and "Orek the Orc"? Stupidly cute. 5/5 stars for that alone.
As I just finished reading the book, I also checked out the author's note at the back of the book and I think Wendel described the book there as a whole SO well when she said: "It's like a cozy blanket and soft cardigan and warm chocolate cookies." I want that tonight and every night from now on out! Overall, just such a sweet, heart-warming read (with top notch spice βπ»).
Would highly recommend for lovers of Jenna Wolfhart, who wrote Forged by Magic and Brewed in Magic!
