🚜 Being so close to him felt like having every last one of my cravings fulfilled 🚜
🚜 This was a super cute, fast paced romance 💝 I didn’t know I would like my monster romance and why choose romance to cross over but this was just so cozy and adorable ☺️ Esme is running away from her original owner, and the human-Trollkin war in which she was conscripted into. Our Trollkin lovers, Han’zir and Drazak were such adorable characters and their chemistry with each other was so beautiful 😍 They were just lovely farmers trying to stay out of everyone’s way and not get in trouble with the war, until Esme crashes into their lives 💥 They take her in and shelter her, feed her, teach her their language, and care for her 🫶 Everyone’s feelings all crash together and we end up with a mating bond cementing into place ✨ I would have like to see this bond and feelings be more prominent in the book. I was upset at the betrayal that meant Esme ended up in danger 🥺 but I was so excited that our boys, Han’zir and Drazak, didn’t even question going after her and making sure she knew her part in their family 🤩 This was an easy and cozy read 🥰

3.5⭐️ rounded up!
Really enjoyed this one; I wish it was a little longer/more developed.

slow-paced
As much as I liked the premise and backgrounds of the characters in the installment, there were some inconsistencies that continually took me out of the story. The language barrier was initially done well, with pantomiming and slow learning of words. Then the characters would switch between having full conversations communicating complex ideas to appearing to have only the most basic ability to communicate. The grovel was a lil lackluster as well imo, although the did back it up with actions.
Spice: 4.5/5
Triggers: War and wartime themes Hunger and starvation Violence and death Mild gore Death of multiple animals (off-page) Hunting of animals for survival Mercy killing of an animal Emotional and physical abuse (in the past) Physical assault Arson Pregnancy Birth Lactation play

Was my first 5 star of the series! Love this trouple, and devoured Han’zir, Esme, and Drazak’s side story as well.
I had not read the first 4 books of this series, but the author did a great job of catching the reader up on the back story. This is a cute, heart warming story about Han'zir the troll, Drazak the orc and Esme the human. Very spicy. And of course I love notable pets - Keva the dog. Now to read Lyonne Riley's back catalog!
Another great installment in the Trollkin universe!
This is a sweet and short MMF romance between an orc, troll and a human. Craved more at the end and wanted to read more about them! It was fun to read about a mating bond between more than two people and I think it was done really well!

MF Telise!!! Ahhh it made my heart so happy to see her pop into this book.
Also, the MM were so spicy and sweet- i just love a MMF dynamic. Another amazing story in the Trollkin Lovers series

What a great story! Esme, Han'zir, and Drazak were the slow burn, will they/won't they? I didn't know I needed. Esme is a strong characters, who refuses to accept less than she deserves. Han'zir and Drazak are willing to give her everything, once she puts her foot down. The spice was spicing here! MM, MF, and MMF scenes are sprinkled throughout the story in a good balance. I stayed up way too late to finish this story, but my Nyquil-addled brain wouldn't let me stop until I finished. This was my first Trollkin Lovers story, but definitely not my last!
