The Orc Boss: A Mafia Romance by Lark Green

4.0

For some reason I thought this was an office romance but boy was I wrong!

Skye is a newly single fae and on her first attempt at casual hookups she accidentally gets kidnapped by an orc. As far as kidnappers go, Ansel is a good guy. The only problem is that now Skye is involved in his problems.

This book shows a great character development for Skye. She had deeply rooted insecurities and fears about her worth which she slowly works through during her kidnapping. The story shows the relationships between different characters and how these change over time. It felt really well done even though it was heartbreaking at times.

However, I did feel that the plot wasn't in the driver's seat in this one. It felt more like a side story than an actual plot to a book. I would have loved for it to be better balanced.

I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.
