Fantasy romance /to review
I liked this one. Some romance and lust thrown in over a few days.
Iolanthe is tall and not the kind of wife a man wants. She would make a great wife though, she loves taking care of her father´s castle. But yes she is taller than most of her father´s soldiers. So her father makes a match and she is sent on her way...
But he is a halforc! Like wtf dad?! Her dad just saw a way to make some easy money. Such an ahole.
Luckily a big strapping halforc likes his women tall. It is a perfect match, if she can get over the green orc thing with tuscs.
Oh these two lusted so hard, and the wedding was quite the affair. It is not a long book, but it was a fun ride.
Great narration too. It was two narrators as it was his and her pov and they worked well with each other´s characters.
Lady Iolanthe of Rockmourn Keep expects to be a spinster all her days. She is very tall. She is very poor. And she is thirty. What lord could possibly want her?
But then her father returns with news that he has found a bridegroom for her—one that is impressively tall. One that is strong, and bold, and wealthy. And best of all? He wants Iolanthe. It seems too good to be true.
And when Iolanthe gets her first look at her husband-to-be, she realizes why.
No one mentioned the 'orc' part of things . . .
As long as he's good to her it sounds like they might be happy.

DeleteGlad she found love (and you can probably get used to tusks)
