A review by timap
The Orc Boss by Lark Green

4.0

Skye, the female Fae lead, has spent her life trying to fit the Fae ideal and feeling like she’s failing. Now in her thirties and recently dumped by her partner of 8 years, she’s feeling like a spinster. When she tries to get out of her slump by signing up for a hook up, she accidentally interrupts an assassination and is taken by Ansel, the male Orc lead, for her protection.

But she’s not stupid. She knows, when you’re kidnapped, you’re supposed to attempt to escape, so she does. That doesn’t explain the attraction she has to Ansel or the sympathy that’s developing for his situation. Then he shows her just what he can do for her in bed and she’s in heart and soul.

However, Ansel was upfront about his longterm no-female plan…

This story is female lead POV, well written, and an interesting, engaging story in a fantasy world. I prefer dual POV, though I admit I understand why this story worked better in single POV. I enjoyed the significant character development Skye underwent. I enjoyed the relationship development. I enjoyed the integration of the secondary characters. I respected the slowburn of the intimate engagement, and found those scenes erotic. I am looking forward to the next story in the series.

I received a complimentary copy from the author and this is my voluntary honest review.
