Captured by the Orc

This author got the assignment completely wrong. Orc’s are sweet cinnamon rolls of goofiness, they are large and jovial and loyal and sweet. This book did orcs a disservice. Orcs are not manwhore alphaholes, they don’t deal in dubious consent. The orc fiction world is a sweet world of golden retriever heroes with huge cocks who find their mate and treat her like a goddess. This book needs to immediately change its identify to captured by the troll or dwarf or some other mythological being. <br />Ms Carter, I demand you do some research into the entire Orc fantasy trope and don’t come back until you are fully able to see the faults in this book and correct them.<br />For now your grade is an F.

When Kelly's car breaks down in remote area without cell phone service she sets out on foot to get help and steps into a magical world where she's chased by a huge green monster. She's convinced it's some sort of cosplay until she realizes the monster is real.<br /><br />Captured by the Orc is the first Orc book I've ever read. To be honest, this new trope didn't interest me, but the blurb of this book by Mina Carter (whom I've read in the past) hooked me right away. I bought this book because of the blurb. <br /><br />Captured by the Orc was great! Fabulous world-building, excellent writing, and fun characters made this book a page turner. It was also quite steamy. Highly recommend if you love fantasy romance novels or Orcs.<br /><br /><br />

<strong>A gift from the forest </strong><br /><br />Love that the main man is a little off beat, and green! I wasn’t so sure that his main squeeze would survive no cell service, but love works in mysterious ways and she embraced the village life. I enjoyed the detail the author put into the characters and the surroundings, right down to the little flying man. And I especially enjoyed the unexpected hero. The author had me captivated by the first page, and I can only hope that more of her monsters find their perfect HEA.

<strong>why?</strong><br /><br />Why does everything have to be about sex? The heroine was annoying, stupid, rudimentary and half baked. Nothing deep or relating about her. The male main character is so basic and overdone, I’ve seen it all before a million times. The writing was contradictory and boring. If all you care about is sex, you might like it but even that is unoriginal and mostly rape. So, if you like that in a man go ahead.

Ez most nagyon jólesett. Humoros, erotikus fantasy románc egy orkkal és egy embernővel a főszerepben. Imádtam Rettegett Karakot, ahogy megszerezte magának Kellyt, aki teljesen véletlenül kelt át az emberek világát elválasztó ködfátyolon, hogy egyenesen belegyalogoljon Karak őrjáratozásába. <br />A szereplők jópofák voltak, jókat kuncogtam a jeleneteken és még az orkok párzási szokásai se zavartak (nagyon). <br />Kíváncsian várom a második kötetet, amiben Karak legjobb barátja a félig ork, félig elf Graal indul útnak, hogy ő is szerezzen magának egy embernőt. <br />

1. Orc <br />2. Turns out I hate insta-love as a trope

This book is great but it is really only a rewrite of “Owned by the Elf”. There should be a warning on the book that it was revised to fit the new Orc craze.

This book started out good but it lacked the depth of her other books. This was also a mirror image of Claimed by an Elf, with the last 2 chapters being copies of each other. Very disappointing.

Kelly has had a bit of a time of it recently. She caught her fiancee cheating with her so-called best friend, her car broke down in the middle of nowheresville and now she's hiking in the woods in completely unsuitable footwear!<br /><br />But when something tried to attack her she is saved by the least likely hero - he seems to be a very dedicated cosplayer. That or the Hulk has dropped to Earth!<br /><br />Karak's aware that his looks and reputation go before him. No one wants to get that close to him, especially not women, not even those of negotiable affection status. So when he spies what he thinks is an enemy faery near his encampment to sets out to kill them. But somehow he ends up saving the wingless female. No, what does he do with his trophy prisoner?<br /><br />I really enjoyed this take on the myths and tales of Orcs and Fae. This was essentially like a Beauty and the Beast scenario, just no big library LOL. Kelly may be out of her depth but in reality she's the one with all the control essentially, even when it may not seem likely.<br /><br />TW: Abduction/sexual assault alluded to/darker romance /dubious consent

Big, green, scarred, and absolutely ready to claim the little human he just found as his. On Kelly's end, she's might be slightly less enamored of his plan. Actually, it's more like she's hesitant to believe an orc just chased her through the woods. You know, because orcs are straight out of stories. Once she gets on board the whole "not a cosplayer being weird in the woods" thing, she's allllll about the orc.<br /><br />Once you go orc, AMIRITE?!?!<br /><br />A little bit of war between the fairies and, well, everybody else, I guess, a little canoodling in the woods, a whole lot of monster lovin', and a lady who knows a good thing when she gets chased through the woods by it. Orc, amirite?!?!<br /><br />-Kelly @ <a href="https://paranormalbookreviews-kelly.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow noopener">Reading the Paranormal</a><br />
