She was promised to a monster. She never expected to want him.
Thalia enters the orc warlord’s camp expecting a sentence, not a choice. Vakir is nothing like the stories told in her village. He is scarred and fearsome, but he treats her with a patience she does not understand. He watches her with a hunger he refuses to act on, as if he is terrified of taking too much.
Every night, the tension between them builds. His size, his strength, his quiet dominance pull her closer until she begins to wonder how long either of them can resist what is burning between them.
When Vakir finally gives in, Thalia learns that orcs claim with their whole body and their whole heart. And once he chooses her, nothing in the world will keep him from her side.
This standalone monster romance features a tender but possessive orc warlord, a human bride, slow-building tension, high heat, and a fiercely devoted hero.
