The Midwife and the Orc

An Orc Sworn Standalone

By: Finley Fenn

Narrated by: Shane East

Orc Mountain needs a midwife, and this devious, deadly orc is determined to find one…

In a world of recently warring orcs and men, Gwyn Garrett is a lord’s daughter on a mission: to escape her lord father, dump her cheating betrothed, and pursue her true calling as a plant-obsessed midwife—until the night her brand-new house is invaded by an orc.

He's a tall, taunting, treacherous monster with sharp teeth, vicious claws, and gleaming black eyes. Worst of all, he has a blatant, brutal mission of his own. He’s come to court her, claim her, compromise her.

Gwyn is far too clever to fall for this sneaky orc’s schemes—right? Even if he moves like a graceful god, his voice is sweet syrup in her ears, and his low, mocking laugh sparks something hot and reckless deep in her soul…

It’s hunger; it’s home; it’s everything Gwyn never knew she needed. But in its wake, there’s only devastation, defeat, and the realization that she’s forever linked with this horrible orc and his horrible plans—and, with the war, the fates of hundreds of women like her.

The truth is that Orc Mountain desperately needs her. Maybe this proud, lonely orc does too…

Shane East Deserves an Oscar!

This series keeps getting better and better. Narration is superlative. Each story is rich in it's variety of unique characters.

Loved it

I enjoy listening to Shane become the voice of the Orcs; the storyline was interesting and made me laugh throughout the book, “Oh God!” The Orcs really do quite a job on the mind of Human females with their free- wheeling nature. Looking forward to the next book!

Outstanding Series

Finley Tenn is a fantastic story teller. This is the fifth book in the series and they all have been well worth the credits. Shane East's narration was perfection, as usual. Where can I get an orc of my own?

So far this is is my favorite!

I absolutely loved this one Joarr and Gwyn were a great couple! This is the only story so far where the Orc actually courted and made love to his mate. Yes there were the some of the same Orc claimings but this tale was funny tender and yes fluid filled (lol!). But with more of a romantic feel.

Joarr/Gwen

This is one of my favorites in this series! I love how these two run along together and out of all the orcs (whether he wanted to be or not), he is the most honest. I like that the connection is so deep that they don’t even have to speak at times. I like that he has a very active way of showing her his love, respect and affection for her. I also like that they play, challenge and joke throughout the book.
Shane is masterful(as usual)! I loved the way Gwen’s father sounded so whiny at the end (I laughed a while about that). Shane really puts those feelings into his voice and it’s always a pleasure to hear.
