She was supposed to steal the cure. Not become captive to the orc warlord who could save her people—or destroy them.
Sloane is a botanist, not a bargaining chip. When she's caught trespassing in the toxic Ironwood forest to steal samples of Sun-Sap—the only cure for the blight consuming human lands—she expects execution. Instead, Vorr, the scarred warlordof the Southern Ironwood, claims her as his personal share of the tribute. His prize. His... problem.
She strikes a deal: organize his chaotic stronghold, and he keeps his hands off her. Simple. Rational. Except nothing about Vorr is simple. Not his irresistible scent that makes her heat-drunk and desperate. Not the way his brutal tenderness—forcing furs on her, dragging her to the fire, feeding her rich stew—feels like the safest she's ever been. And definitely not the way her clinical detachment crumbles when a blizzard traps them together and she realizes her body was never going to obey her brain.
She tells herself it's biology. The orc mating bond. Survival. But when she discovers she's pregnant with his child, and the human army launches a surprise attack that rips them apart, Sloane has to face the truth: she didn't just surrender her body. She surrendered her heart.
And now she'll do anything to get back to him.
Iron Bound is a dark enemies-to-lovers orc romance with forced proximity, a grumpy warlord who shows love through aggressive caretaking, a sharp-tongued heroine who rationalizes her way into his bed, and a breeding/pregnancyarc that will make you feral. This is Book 1 of the Ironwood Covenant trilogy—each book features a different couple in an interconnected world, escalating from captivity to war to species-saving love.
