Her Orc Protector: A Monster Fantasy Romance

Written by Zoe Ashwood

Narrated by Dan Lee

My people have accused me of being a witch…

If they weren’t so afraid of me, I’d be dead already, drowned in the icy river flowing from the orc lands. Terrified I’d turn them all to toads, they tied me to a tree in the deep, frozen forest and left me for the wolves.

But the forest is home to larger beasts than wolves. Brutal orcs prowl these mountains, and when one finds me here, alone, I accept my life is over.

Only I’m wrong. The strong, cautious male doesn’t slit my throat on sight. Instead, he rescues me, and for a moment, I think I’m saved.

Until he tells me that I’m his. We’re fated mates, and he’s intent on keeping me. Forever.

Her Orc Protector is an orc fantasy romance set in the world of the Black Bear Hill. You’ll love this story if you enjoy books with forced proximity, size difference issues, and a reluctant heroine who can’t resist her large, devoted hero for long. This is the fourth book in a series of standalones - each story can be read on its own and features a happy ending for the main couple.

Reviews for Her Orc Protector

[HuRo · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

I enjoyed listening to the book and I believe the author is talented. I did feel that some of the words could have been written differently. Repetition tends to stand out and pull the reader out of the magical tale.
The voice of the narrator is calming and suits this story. With a bit of focus on separating the voices of the characters from the narration, he could be one of the greats.

So, let me get this out of the way....why on EARTH is this book narrated by a man, when the entire story is written from the POV of the FMC?! That kept being sooooo confusing to me while I was listening, as the narrator referred to themselves as "I" and "me".

Now with that out of the way....

This was my first orc romance, and I was charmed by how sweet and gentlemanly our hero was. That said, I'm not an instalove/instalust kinda gal, and there was WAY TOO MUCH SEX, WAY TOO SOON.

For me it would have been more delicious if it had been stretched out over the course of the book, with the two characters gradually becoming attracted to each other, and falling in love.

In spite of these quibbles I wasn't tempted to stop listening, and I'll check out more of these stories.
