Book Review: How to Woo a Warrior Orc

 


He’s a huge warrior orc— but his sweet side is exactly what I’m craving.

I’ve made a life of catering to any craving a friend might have— and now I have a magical pastry shop that does exactly that. Creating enchanted desserts at Pixie’s Perch is my lifelong dream, and as much as I love my friends in the Wild Oak Woods, something’s missing.

Until the fierce warrior orc Ga'Rek shows up with his crew of Unseelie fae. He’s never seen anything like my pastry shop, and I’ve never met anyone like him. When he starts helping out in my kitchen, he heats up more than the oven. He’s got a real knack for filling eclairs with cream, too.

When the local duchess decides to make an official visit during the annual Wild Oak Woods fall festival, I pull out all the stops to impress her. My shy, smiling orc in the kitchen turns out to be the perfect assistant pastry chef. No matter what half-cocked idea for a new recipe I have, he’s always willing to help— and to sample the results.

I’m determined to reward Ga'Rek with all of his favorite sweet treats.

Except the only thing the huge warrior orc wants is me.

How To Woo A Warrior Orc is a cozy, low-stakes, spicy monster fantasy romance, all set in the picturesque small-town of the Wild Oak Woods.


My Review


It was really nice to go back and visit Wild Oak Woods and the people there. After reading How To Tame A Trickster Fae and briefly getting to know Piper and Ga'Rek, I was excited to read their story. You could say that Piper and Ga'Rek got their sweet delights with each other!


Piper and Ga'Rek are a little awkward in their interactions when it comes to expressing their feelings for each other. This made for intriguing moments. Want to know how to embarrass these two, have Caelan be matchmaker. I laughed when Caelan talked about Ga'Rek being interested in Piper's eclair and filling it with his cream filling. 


Once these two came around and admitted their feelings for one another, it was game on. Where Ga'Rek is concerned, I have one word...tusks!
