Uh-oh, the stranger from last night is her boss.

I moved to Moonfang Haven with my daughter to build a new life for us, with a job I love, and instantly fell in love with the town. Everything about this town is exactly the balm my bruised soul needed.


My first day on the job, my new boss is the older, commanding orc I had a one night fling with. Gulp.

I can’t afford to lose this job. My daughter and I need this stability.
But how am I supposed to be professional when I can't resist his fiery eyes and his growly possessiveness?

One Forbidden Night with Her Orc Boss is a spicy & sweet age-gap, forbidden romance with a cozy small town feel.

Jilli specializes in swoony small-town romance, where the settings are as cozy as they are picturesque, whether it’s a lobster shack on the coast of Maine or a family-run bakery in the heart of a close-knit town. Readers are drawn to her ability to create real connections between characters, exploring both the joy and the challenges of love—without ever losing sight of the humor and heart that make her stories truly shine.

Her debut novel, You've Got Love and Lobsters, released in 2023, quickly captivated fans with its heartfelt story of Layla Deeb, a woman determined to save her family’s struggling lobster shack, and Ben Carlisle, the corporate rival who just might steal her heart. This book, along with the rest of the Shipbuilt Shenanigans series, shows off her talent for crafting engaging, layered characters and blending humor with romance in a way that feels entirely fresh.

In addition to her swoony small-town romances, Jilli has also ventured into the realm of monster romance with her Toothsome Monster Romance series. Her latest release, One Night with Her Mountain Orc, brings together a stranded woman and a reformed orc in a heartwarming and steamy tale that has added a unique twist to her already diverse repertoire.

When she’s not writing, Jilli can be found plotting her next adventure, playing games with her family, or simply enjoying the beauty of the stars. Whether you’re a fan of small-town charm or just looking for a story that will make you believe in the power of love, Jilli Waters is an author whose books are sure to leave a lasting smile on your face.

Toothsome Monster Romance

In the quiet, magical corners of Moonfang Haven, love doesn’t just bloom—it prowls, growls, and sometimes has tusks.

This is a town where a reclusive orc might rescue you from a snowstorm, a grumpy brewer might warm your heart after a night gone sideways, and a cozy library could become the backdrop to an unexpectedly tender moment between opposites. Toothsome Monster Romance isn’t your average small-town series. Here, fantasy and feeling go hand-in-hand, wrapping spice, heart, and humor into bite-sized novellas that feel both familiar and delightfully strange.

What makes these stories stand out isn’t just the monster romance trope done right—it’s the warmth pulsing beneath the surface. These tales are rooted in deep emotional connection, with strong-willed heroines who carry real scars and longing, and orcish love interests who are more than just growls and muscles—they’re caretakers, misfits, and unexpectedly soft. The dynamics—grumpy-sunshine, forced proximity, forbidden attraction—are classic, but the execution is fresh, full of wry charm and cozy sensuality.

Set in a town where enchantments hum in the background and every corner holds a hint of the extraordinary, the series creates a lush escape for readers craving sweet and spicy monster romance that doesn't skimp on emotional payoff. Each story stands on its own but shares a beating heart: that longing—for connection, for safety, for someone who sees you fully, fangs and all.

Perfect for fans of cozy fantasy romance with a bold twist, this series is a quiet, rising favorite in the genre—one of those treasures readers stumble upon and eagerly pass along, whispering, “Just trust me on this one.”
