Creating enchanted desserts at Pixie’s Perch is my lifelong dream, and as much as I love my friends in the Wild Oak Woods, something’s missing. Until the fierce warrior orc Ga'Rek shows up with his crew of Unseelie fae. He’s never seen anything like my pastry shop, and I’ve never met anyone like him. When he starts helping out in my kitchen, he heats up more than the oven. He’s got a real knack for filling eclairs with cream, too. When the local duchess decides to make an official visit during the annual Wild Oak Woods fall festival, I pull out all the stops to impress her. My shy, smiling orc in the kitchen turns out to be the perfect assistant pastry chef. No matter what half-cocked idea for a new recipe I have, he’s always willing to help— and to sample the results. I’m determined to reward Ga'Rek with all of his favorite sweet treats. Except the only thing the huge warrior orc wants is me. How To Woo A Warrior Orc is a cozy, low-stakes, spicy monster fantasy romance, all set in the picturesque small-town of the Wild Oak Woods. less
