Tales from the Orc Chasm is a collection of short, interconnected romances in a cozy fantasy world, involving orcs, humans, halflings, and fairies.
Snowed in with the Orc
Fawn has seen countless others try to flirt with the handsome orc tavern keeper Erryc, she knows he always turns them down. Unbearably shy, she's determined to keep her feelings for her friend to herself, even when he comes to her with a dilemma- he needs her to pretend to be his lover to gently dissuade a persistent patron. However, a drunken kiss at the Winter Solstice festival might ruin their friendship forever.
Only One Bedroll
Mushrooms, halfling-eating monsters, and orcs, oh my. When Bianca Chanterelle gets lost in the woods, she doesn't expect the orc hunter that finds her to be any help getting back to her traveling party, but with him finds adventure, a secret microbiome, a terrifying monster, and a budding attraction between them. Tanis, son of Dhane the Bloodthirsty, shouldn't be so curious about the halfling woman who is utterly unsuited to living in the woods, but he can't resist the way his blood calls to her, especially when they find themselves hiding in a tent, sharing his bedroll. When the rest of the orcish hunting party decides to raid the traveling halfling troupe of actors' camp, however, a staged kidnapping and a monster intervention may not be enough to make sure everyone gets out of the woods.
What Makes A Firebug Glow?
The problem isn't that the bounty hunter orc is several times the fairy's stature. It isn't even that he's rude, mouthy, and makes Nettle scald with only a look- it's that he might just be what she needs to glow again. She only hires the grizzled Silver to help her navigate a treacherous gauntlet, but between saving each other's lives and getting thoroughly mixed up in each others' drinks and business, they find a way to make it fit.
