Capturing the Orc's Heart

Lyonne Riley

Book 3 of Trollkin Lovers

A disgraced orc lieutenant named Agkar transfers to a desolate desert outpost after a humiliating defeat, only to find himself serving under a tough human captain, Zirelle Mastair, who has no patience for his attitude. Their mutual hostility is tested when a mission tracking a fugitive strands them together, forcing the enemies-turned-reluctant-allies to confront the attraction and old wounds simmering beneath their friction. It's a short, self-contained monster romance entry in a larger orc/troll/ogre fantasy world.
