Cute and Fun!
This is such a fun series, all of the ones I've read so far have been good. I love the couples and the fast burn romance. This one is pretty fast burn and a decently quick read. The worldbuilding still holds up, and there is some plot, but this is certainly more character based. The characters are fun and sweet and I don't think the focus on them takes away from the enjoyment. These aren't too dark either, and the spice is good, so if you are jumping into human/other species romance these are a pretty good choice.

Zoe Ashwood really popped off with this series. I’ve found myself falling in love with every single FMC and MMC. They’re all just so amazing. Especially in this book. The way she had me ready to throw hands with Marut but then starting to love him. Now I’m rooting for him to find his mate

Korr and Ivy together were sweet, they really helped each other and seemed well matched. Got to say, it was a pleasant change to have a male virgin, normally it's the woman in books and it's weirdly fetishized but not here.
I liked the subplot surrounding Korr and his brother, their feud and how that had impacted their lives. I liked that Korr was strong but also vulnerable and able to be vulnerable and open with Ivy. The addition of Ivy having some witchy abilities was cool and I wish this was explored further and that we got to see more of what she could do and what was hinted at by the healer. It was interesting to see the comparisons between the human realms and how they treat different types of people to how the orcs treat them.
An enjoyable read.

I’m loving this series so much. Korr was adorable; I think he might be my favorite orc so far. I really liked how these two handled every issue together and how they communicated with each other.
