Publisher's summary

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…

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.

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!

I love Joarr

This is my favorite Orc couple. I feel like they have a more equal footing and Joarr shows more respect towards her than other orcs show their mates. Also 10/10 performance by Shane East. That man’s voice is hot enough to melt the sun. He has multiple, distinct voices. He’s definitely one of my favorite narrators.

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.

Wonderful book

Shane East continues to do a great job with his performance on this book. He conveys emotion, and has a unique voice for all of the characters. This is one of my favorite in the Orc Sworn series. Finley Fenn delivers as always on complex characters and a great story about choice.
