Description

I remain an eternal optimist who dreams of meeting the right guy and getting married forever. Despite last year’s nasty divorce and the subsequent restraining order, which I consider but a road bump to my eventual happiness.Garlen Underwood is the reclusive orc who recently moved in next door.On the first day of winter, my deadbeat, criminal, ex-husband shows up on my front yard and shouts a litany of threats. But before I can call the cops a horned, shirtless orc arrives on the scene and punches him to the ground.Three things happen at Garlen and I meet in person for the first time. He stands much too close, inhales my scent and morphs into a snarling, raging, green-muscled beast who repeatedly thunders “my bride.”Second, his orc companions appear out of nowhere, tackle him to the ground, bind him in heavy chains and drag him through the snow to the mansion next door. They let me know that orcs historically kidnap their brides in the dark of winter, therefore they will keep Garlen caged until spring?Third...I realize that snarling orc is the sexiest male I’ve ever met.And at the end of winter break I was all set to teach with him at Blackwood Academy. Because he’s the new hire and I’m his boss. Oh hell.
