The Single Mom and the Orc

Fairhaven Falls, Book 4

De: Honey Phillips

Narrado por: Aiden Snow, Heather Firth

Her grumpy orc is going to hammer his way into her heart!

When Pippa finds herself in Fairhaven Falls with empty pockets and a brand new baby, she's thrilled when a sweet—and slightly scary—old lady offers her a job and a place to live. Their new home isn't much, but it offers a desperately needed shelter.

Then, her grumpy orc neighbor comes charging into their lives. She should be wary of the huge male, but when she watches him handling his hammer, fear is the last thing she feels. And when he cradles her daughter so tenderly against that big muscular chest? Her heart isn't the only thing melting!

Trogar likes his own company just fine, thank you very much. When his grandmother insists he helps out his new neighbor, he reluctantly agrees. But the more time he spends with the curvy human and her adorable daughter, the more he wants to claim them both as his own.

When Pippa's past catches up with her, can Trogar keep her and her daughter safe? And when the dust settles, will he have a new family—or the solitary life he no longer wants?

The Single Mom and the Orc is a sweet and steamy monster romance. It is book four in the Fairhaven Falls series and part of the Sweet Monster Treats collection. Each book is a standalone, containing its own Happily Ever After, and they can be listened to in any order.

Favorite of the series so far!

This was my favorite of the 6 books I have listened to so far! I love how instantly Trogar is smitten with Daisy and wants to protect her and her momma and be there for them (had realized he was in too deep too late hahaha). I loved his grumpy nature but how he lit up with Pippa and Daisy and how he was totally ok with being an orc dad haha. Like he had no qualms learning how to care for her and them and eventually listened when she wanted to do things her way, so she could be self-supportive and not dependent on another guy. She is wary of males and she rightfully so should be after losing her loved one and how she was treated before.

I liked there was more plot in this one than in others, we have Pippa on the run and we finally get to see the confrontation and how things pan out. We also got to see an adorable romance bloom and see this family come together. Daisy steals the show and listening to Trogar have to deal with diapers (he is a neat freak, that's for sure haha) and see him give little gifts to them and them light up. And how she wanted him to hold her from the very beginning. So many swoon worthy moments in this one. We also get some amazing cameos from previous characters, Flora's intervention hahaha, she is an amazing character who gets better with each book. We also meet a new character who I believe gets his own story (haven't listened to that one yet, can't wait though!).

And did I mention the steam was fabulous and well placed? Pippa has had to be on her own after she was treated horribly from a supposed family member and so Trogar had some work to do to get her to trust him. But he couldn't help his protective nature and his urge to take care of her, especially in the bedroom haha. I love how they clean up the carriage house together, strengthening their relationship and letting things develop (I mean don't get me wrong it's still quick but its more reasonable/relatable than the others haha). I think so far my favorite monsters in Fairhaven are the orcs hehe. Narration was great again, I love the deep timbre of the male narrator, especially for PNR characters and the female narrator really captured the fear Pippa had but how strong she was for her and her daughter and the vulnerability she showed with letting Trogar in. So good!
