The Sins of the Orc: An MM Monster Romance (Orc Forged)

He's fallen too far to save... but his enemy is going to try.

In a world of warring orcs and men, Kesst of Clan Ash-Kai is a pawn. A pretty, pliant plaything, bound to the cruelest orcs in the realm.

Until the new healer storms in.

He's huge, hostile, and hideous, with a powerful scarred body and terrifying ancient magic. And it only takes one disastrous meeting before he and Kesst are bitter enemies, and Kesst vows to see the vile brute destroyed...

And then a sudden, deadly attack hurls his helpless body straight at the healer's feet.

Kesst fully expects to be mocked, belittled, abandoned to his doom - but instead, his new enemy picks him up.

Soothes his wounds.

And carries him home...

Soon Kesst is trapped in a tiny sickroom beneath Orc Mountain, caught in the thrall of the healer's impossible magic. In the surprising gentleness of his touch. In the strength of his stubborn, seductive safety...

But with his horrid handlers close on their scent, Kesst can't possibly be falling for his forbidden foe... can he? Can a healer save him from his sins... or destroy him?

Loved reading Kesst and Eft's story! After seeing how things were between them in the Maid and the Orcs, it was lovely to see how their relationship started.

Hot and such a good character description. The minus one star comes from the confusing POV. The thoughts of the protagonist are in the first person, but whenever he talks, he was mentioned either by name or as 'he'. It didn't help that most of the scenes were with his love interest who also happened to be a he... So most of the time I was searching which 'he' they actually referred to! This book might've been easier to read had the author actually opted to write the whole thing in the first person. But I guess they were going for a more third-person feel because the movements and actions of the main character were also described. Which might've been odd in the first person? In my opinion, it should've been either/or, because this was too freaking confusing, but maybe I should just read more
