Spotlight Indie Romance: Orc Magic

There is an increasing trend in fantasy and paranormal romance to cast orcs as the heroes. In Krista Luna’s Bound to the Orc Ranger, the big green guy with tusks is a deadly warrior and cinnamon-roll by turns.

With a mix of action-adventure and rom-com, the story is engaging and creative. And who doesn’t love a talking unicorn?

A wish whisks me away to Faerie, where I have magic! And a “married at first sight” orc husband.

Stuck slinging pizzas in the deadest of dead-end jobs, I make a wish. In a blink, I’m teetering on top of a standing stone in Faerie, where I have magical powers!

And monsters fighting over me!

Thank god, the orc wins. A fierce and deadly warrior, Rovann’s nothing but gentle with me.

I’m stunned when he claims me as his moon bound bride, saying we’re already magically matched and married. I never imagined being wed to a stranger, even one that makes my heart flutter. When I tell him humans don’t work like that, Rovann vows to woo me.

No matter what it takes.

FLETCHER

Once a galaxy-renowned Moon Racer, Fletcher’s competitive career ended in the battle for the Thirteenth System. Shot down over Bright Star Deuce, he was fortunate to survive, his left arm and leg replaced with state-of-the-art prosthetics. Now only half a warrior, his metal limbs cost him the milliseconds in reaction time needed for successful competition.

One of the first flyers to explore the Thirteenth System, he is relegated to testing new technologies for Serengeti. When one of the flyer technologies becomes critical to Thirteenth System colonization, he is the first to volunteer. Eager to rebuild his future, he has no time to be distracted by a beguiling protege. Clarice, a former apprentice, has risen in the ranks of Serengeti and Thornscore. He has known her for years, but protocol prevented him from recognizing her as a woman. Until now.

CLARICE

Once a mere apprentice, her skill, courage, and honor promoted Clarice to legalistics protégé. Through years of deprivation, she learned to value every success. Years of humiliation have conditioned her to weigh every relationship for benefit and never risk her heart.

Handsome, charismatic, and a warrior of impeccable lineage, Fletcher Detrenti has been on the periphery of her life for half a decade. She admired his bravery, respected his honor, and enjoyed his easygoing nature. She was shocked by the withdrawn and taciturn man who returned from war. Bound for the Thirteenth System in his company, she cannot resist the pull between them.
