Healed by the Orc
My vacation turns on its head when ancient stones throw me straight into the arms of an Orc.
Shannon
I’m dying, that’s what the doctors told me. Visiting my ancestral farm in Ireland is the one thing I still want to do. Well, I get to see green. Lots of it, but not in the way I imagined.
When I touch ancient stones, they send me through a portal and into the arms of a real-life Orc on a flying motorcycle. He’s bright, handsome, too young, and oh-so-tempting. But I can’t commit to anything but going home when I know I won’t last another year.
He doesn’t care. He protects me, covets me, temps me. When his whole society conspires to throw me away, he stands by my side.
Blade
My clan wants me to find a mate, and there she is, landing straight in my lap. She’s gorgeous and mutinous. She seems to think she’s too old for me, but I don’t believe that.
I will uncover whatever secrets she hides, the weakness she tries not to show. Even while I endeavor to convince her to stay, to tempt her into my bed.
The overlords are on our tail, eager to throw her off the planet as long as she is unmated. I will dodge them, protect her, and fight them. Nobody takes my mate. She is mine to keep, mine to protect, and mine to heal.
This is a standalone novella and part of the Orcs Unbound series. This steamy sci-fi monster romance features one cheerful, daring Orc, a tough, forty-year-old lady, and a steamy HEA.

Robin O'Connor
Robin O'Connor is a writer who thrives in the wild, imaginative worlds of sci-fi and monster romance, where the stakes are high, the passion runs deep, and the heroes are as strong as they are undeniably sexy. Known for her steamy stories filled with alien heroes and quirky heroines, Robin crafts tales that combine heart-pounding adventure with sizzling chemistry, all wrapped in a fantastical universe.
Living in a house that’s equal parts cozy and chaotic, Robin shares her space with her husband, their four-year-old son, and a collection of books—hundreds of them, all hers—and computer parts that look straight out of a mad scientist’s workshop. As someone who’s always juggling a half-dozen projects at once, Robin’s home is never dull. Yet, despite her busy life, she always makes time for her readers. Whether it's posting quirky extras, sharing cover reveals, or answering fan questions, she’s active on social media, building a strong connection with her audience.

Book Reviews
This was a fun story and I enjoyed getting to know both Blade and Hannah as their story unfolded and the epilogue was really good as well. I would like to see more of these characters in the future and maybe even a story about Blades brother finding a mate.
I received a free advanced reader copy of this book from the author and am voluntarily leaving a review.
