She doesn’t do anything spontaneous or wild . . . until a hot orc dares her to try something new. Bailey: As head librarian in my small town, I take my job seriously. So when I hear a sound in the library’s attic while I’m working late and alone, and then a big, green, muscular orc creeps up behind me, I smack him in the head with a stapler. After the theft of an ancient orc book on loan to the library, is it any wonder I’m skittish?Katar explains he heard me scream and only wanted to help. He’s . . . upset, and I guess I can’t blame him.He offers to help me discover who stole the book, and we track down one clue after another. But when he dares me to give into my wild side, I start falling in love. Katar: Being hit in the head with a stapler is an interesting way to meet my fated mate. That’s who this prim and proper, incredibly gorgeous librarian is. I only came to town to discover who stole the ancient orc manuscript. Then I’ll return to the orc kingdom forever. But the thought of leaving this curvy, delectable woman makes me want to snarl.So I’m going to crack this case. I’m going to show Bailey how to let loose. And then I’m claiming her as my bride.
