Orc Tested: A Monster Fantasy Romance

Alana's pampered life ended years ago when her mother fell into endless slumber and her father passed away. Preyed upon by wealthy nobles eager to target a naive heir, her house's honor and fortune dwindling, Alana will accept any indignity to help her family survive, even if she has to become a lecherous lord's pet.

But when Death comes too soon, Alana no longer cares about honor or pride.

That can wait until vengeance is satisfied.

Bending her neck to the three calculating orcs of the Goldenclaw clan is nothing compared to what Alana's survived. These golden-eyed, monstrous beings possess the power she needs, but how much does vengeance cost? With every lick of their black tongues, they remind her of the treacherous game she's playing.

And when orcs play, they play for keeps.
