Bex (Beckie Bookworm)'s Reviews > The Beauty and the Orcs

I adore this series so was excited to get stuck into my latest fix, this newest delicious orc tale is M/M/F and focuses on the Grisk clan specifically Varinn and Thrain who both have an ongoing and extremely tempestuous relationship with each other. These two have been completely infatuated with each other since boyhood when a pivotal traumatic event forced them both into close proximity. Though they care deeply for each other Varinn has always longed for a mate and child to carry on his scent line something that Thrain is obviously unable to give him.

Kitty is a female who has been taught to use all of her many assets to ensure her own survival. When events place her directly in Thrain’s path and also being vulnerable after her long-term protector threw her away like yesterday's rubbish Kitty now finds herself in a perilous situation.
Abandoned and pregnant with an Orcling on the way she does the only thing she can and sets off to Orc Mountain encountering Varinn along the way. The circumstances behind Kitty’s situation and Thrain’s thoughtless behaviour setting the course for all that is to come.

This one initially had a lot of angst we are also dealing with an addiction as Thrain has severe issues with the drink and had done for many years. Varinn’s first impressions of Kitty or Katherine as he calls her are harsh he thinks her a certain type of female and he isn’t shy about letting her know he thinks this either. What begins as one thing though swiftly morphs into something deeper and Kitty finds herself wanting this all to be real wanting both Orcs for her mates and protectors. But it’s certainly not plain sailing Thrain has some serious demons and Varinn can be closed off and overly harsh and has a deep need for control.

This one was just as hot as its predecessor's lots with copious amounts of fluids and sexy times as usual this was incredibly explicit and that is definitely one of my favourite things regarding this series. I definitely appreciated that Kitty wasn’t your typical heroine she was way more worldly and experienced due to her profession and life experiences but she was also vulnerable and eager to please her prior life and the men in it have been far from kind, but once Varinn got over himself and realised just what a treasure he had acquired in her it did become a whole lot easier.

This also had a heavy praise and control kink and the spice was through the roof these three were seriously filthy together but also incredibly sweet as well. I enjoyed this a lot and as usual, the writing was excellent. The world-building was again good and I also loved catching up with all of the usual recurring faces that reside at Orc Mountain this was another definite winner for me I voluntarily reviewed a copy of Beauty and the Orcs.
