The Governess and the Orc

An Orc Sworn Standalone

De: Finley Fenn

Narrado por: Shane East

He'll make all her dreams come true… but only if she can pretend to love him.

In a realm of orcs and powerful men, Geva Okoro is a proud, impoverished governess trapped in a dismal, dead-end post—until the day the orc breaks in.

He's a huge, insolent, arrogant brute, swaggering with smooth, shameless wickedness. But unlike the orcs from the terrifying tales, he only wants one thing from Geva… her employer's gold.

There's no escaping his devious clutches, and soon a furious Geva is reduced to raiding her employer's house with an orc. Compromising her career and destroying all her dreams… until the orc proposes another shocking scheme.

He'll split the day's plunder with her—if she'll pretend to be his mate. For one month. At Orc Mountain.

Sharing his rooms. Smiling sweetly at his side. Smelling all over of his deep, decadent scent…

He's offering more wealth than Geva's ever dreamt of, but there's no way she can trust this treacherous thief… can she? Let alone convince all of Orc Mountain that she loves him?!

And, surely even her best play-acting would never start to feel real… or win over an orc's cold, broken heart?

The Governess and the Orc is an angsty, full-length, enemies-to-lovers fantasy romance.

It comes after The Maid and the Orcs, but may be listened to as a standalone. Happily ever after guaranteed.

My favorite so far!!!

Loved this next installment! I also found myself not being THAT upset with the Orc ML this time! Bc honestly the lies and schemes have been WILD in the previous books. So this was so refreshing and I just really loved it!

Another wonderful book

Finley Fenn continues to write complex and well rounded characters. The Orc Sworn series just keeps getting better and better. Shane East was great as always delivering on the emotion and humor. I loved everything about this audiobook.

I can't stop listening!!! 💚

as always a fantastic performance from Shane! I can't express enough how much this series means to me, I'm so invested in all the characters and their challenges 💚 everyone is so individual with their own stories, likes/dislikes and their families. I absolutely love them all, though this particular book is a personal favorite. I love Geva, her love for her students and her own individuality. Rathgar has his own challenges he has to face and overcome, trust to give and take. I love that we got another more in-depth look at Kest and his story too, since he's one of my favorite characters and he's in every book giving a little more about himself and his role in the mountain with Eft in the clinic. if you like orcs, drama, fantastic characters, and medieval fantasy with a little darkness mixed with lots of spice 😉 🔥 🔥 🔥 added in for flavor this is the series for you!

Always a good time!

This one is LONGGGG… but, it’s a fun, extremely spicy read as always.
Shane East is amazing on narration.
Spice 4/5🌶️
Story 4/5 (on the Orc scale 😉)

5 stars and 5 chiles Aaaaaaghhhh!

5 stars and 5 chiles

5 spice rating and 5 stars
Add Finley Finn, Salacious Orcs, brown grrl magic and the vocal god Shane East…and poof! One of Finley’s best. This is fabulously smart as the female character is a born leader akin to Rosa and Jewel.

Thank you thank you thank you

This book is one of my top faves instantly … it hit me in the emotional guts so hard it was almost disrespectful ….. Finley fenn you made Geneva so well she is the female lead I relate too the most out of your series …… Shane East you have done once again such an amazing and emotion filled performance once again can’t wait for the next story installment

Wow!

I have heard so much about this writer that I had to take a chance and listen to this book. To say my mouth hung open through most of it would be an understatement. I like monster romances and I like smut but this book was too much for me! The narrator did an excellent job and for the most part the story was great and really involved. The characters came to life and the world building was phenomenal, just not my cup of tea. I couldn’t give it a bad review if I wanted to because I would be lying. It’s was just a lot more descriptive than I needed while trying to work. Lol

2 brothers torn apart by a mother's greed

so this is obviously a love story between Geva and Rathgar. but my favorite part is Kesst and Rath reuniting and talking through their old hurts and trauma and healing from it.

My absolute favorite in series

I love the way all of the Orc clans work together to create the curriculum and school for the orclings. The storyline was unique; packed with drama, mystery, suspense, and hot romance 🥰 Can’t say enough about Shane East’s narration of these books. He does such a wonderful job of bringing all of the characters to life; it will be hard to replace him; and I for one, will sorely miss him! My favorite words and phrases in this book: “My little school marm”, “…and then the sea.”, “and oh Gods” lol 😂 Keep them coming Finley!

Total win

Finley ticks lots of the kinky boxes and the steamy boxes as well. Sexy orcs and sexy female be they large or small. Can’t wait for the next one.
