Cedar is not just a peasant, but a peasant's servant, sold by her parents in exchange for a cow. When orcs arrive in her village, she is not heartbroken to see them murder her vicious master. But when she's caught fleeing, the leader of the orcs, a foul and scarred beast, decides to take her as his own.

Lord Kargorr's only mission is to destroy humankind. Since the ice melted and the grrosek returned to this plane, he is intent on reclaiming his kin's land. Taking a human concubine is the beginning of his plan to sow an army of half-orcs-but he doesn't expect how much this one human would challenge him. Soon, she might become more than just a concubine.

But will Cedar ever truly submit, even when she's carrying his orcling? Or will Lord Kargorr be the one to bow down when he realizes who she truly is to him?

This is a monster romance that features a kidnapped, captive human heroine, a villainous orc hero who wants to destroy humankind, and their complicated, wickedly steamy love story. You can expect domination, a stubborn heroine, pregnancy, breeding, and bloody declarations of love. Guaranteed HEA.
