I want to be obsessed with this one, I really do, but once
the MMC fucking sold her - even if he had a fucking plan!! To get her back!! -
my good opinion plummeted and there was just no redemption in my eyes 🤷‍♀️

I’ve read & loved a lot of monster romance, so was happy to finally delve into the orc world with this one but it just  wasn’t for me, unfortunately. 

Both MCs were beyond irritating with their miscommunication, trust issues, and whiplash-level “I hate you’s, I love you’s”, yet it all miraculously disappeared when the magical orc peen was whipped out. To me, this fell on the wrong end of a dub-con relationship because it just felt like a way to cram in sooo many sexual encounters without any actual desire or connection between the two. Not enough time was spent on any level of development in their budding romance, yet they didn’t come across as fated mates either so it just left me feeling…why??

I could have kept going if it weren't for the main characters, both of whom get on my nerves and make me want to get into the book so I could give them each a good beating. Few books have ever gotten on my nerves like this and I didn't expect this from this one.

This was such a fun read. I wasn't sure if I would enjoy the story in the beginning but I got wrapped up in the world so quickly that I forgot my original concerns for my personal cringe.

Then before I knew it, we were all at the final battle and I was hoping against all odds these two would persevere. I loved how things wrapped up and really enjoyed seeing Lady Norr come into her own.
