My Big Fat Orc Wedding: A Spicy Cozy Fantasy Romance

By Lucy Rose Edwards

It was the perfect plan: A wannabe bard pretends to marry a grumpy orc.
The only thing that could get in their way? His overly enthusiastic family.Lyra Elessande dreams of more than pouring pints at her family's tavern-she wants to be a bard, writing songs that stir hearts across Emmorea. But until she gets her big break, she's stuck playing for tips and dreaming big in sleepy Starling Vale.

When the gruff (and unexpectedly gorgeous) orc brewmaster Aragos Stonegarde walks into the tavern during what she thought was an innocent little ditty, Lyra accidentally insults a centuries-old orc tradition-and earns the ire of the entire Stonegarde clan.

To save face, Aragos proposes a deal: they'll pretend to be engaged to smooth things over with his family. In exchange, he'll help Lyra build her reputation as a bard.

What starts as a fake betrothal quickly spirals into a wedding-sized mess. Orc traditions are elaborate, the Stonegardes are very involved, and Lyra is completely out of her depth when it comes to feasting halls, battle customs, and brooding orc grooms-to-be. Not to mention the fact that there's only one bed in the castle for the couple.

As Aragos' cold exterior begins to melt and Lyra's songs grow more heartfelt, the line between what's real and what's not gets dangerously blurry. And when someone threatens to unravel both the wedding and her budding career, Aragos proves he'll fight for more than tradition-he'll fight for her.

My Big Fat Orc Wedding is a full-length cozy fantasy romance packed with stringed serenades, too much ale, a found orc family, one very grumpy orc, a sunshiney bard, and the (maybe) wedding of the century.

Welcome to Starling Vale, where your favorite Hallmark Channel movies meet World of Warcraft-with a heavy dose of spice.
