Her Orc Husband

Black Bear Clan, Book 5

By: Zoe Ashwood

Narrated by: Dan Lee

This arranged marriage is my last hope for a better future.

The city’s best matchmaker has all but despaired over me and my brother is threatening to throw me on the street if I don’t find a husband soon.

But the revulsion I feel every time anyone touches me has made it impossible for me to find a good match. All men want a willing wife in their bed, not a wretch who cringes away from the slightest brush of skin against skin.

The man who finally chooses me is not a man at all. He’s an orc with long black hair, green skin, and more muscles than anyone could possibly need. He says I’m his mate.

All my life, I’ve done what others wanted, but now I have a choice. To remain here at my brother’s mercy or leave for the orc kingdom.

And for once, I’m willing to head into the unknown.

Her Orc Husband is an orc fantasy romance and features an orc hero who would rather spend time in his library than court a human and a heroine who will learn to enjoy closeness again. You’ll like it if you enjoy listening about size difference issues, grumpy heroes, and timid heroines who bloom in the right environment. This is a Black Bear Clan story but can be listened to as a standalone with a full HEA.

love it

I enjoy how the story develops and their relationship grows. it was enjoyable to me

I LOVE this story ❤️

It is not often that I find a story where one or both the main characters are not aggressive or argumentative from the beginning and throughout the 1st half of the book. It has gotten a little old. This book is a rare find of building trust and having respect for other people's differences. It was enjoyable and refreshing to see two people come together in unusual circumstances and, throughout their journey, watch their love bloom. I only wish there were more authors in this genre who would use this formula of a successful relationship developing without hostility towards each other until later in the story. This is an awesome and sweet love story that highlights the benefits of being patient, respectful, and understanding of sacrifices that each person brings into a relationship for a happily ever after. I highly recommend this book, and I rarely write reviews.

Plot pattern

Like voice acting and continuity of previous novel characters in bringing series forward. The descriptions of situations and actions seem to be reused enough to notice.
