The Orc's Second Shot at Love
(2024)(A book in the Pine Ridge Universe series)
A novel by S C Principale
When Georgia Fenclan hits thirty, the Type-A barista-slash-businesswoman hopes she’s done being the bridesmaid and never the bride. The Half-Orc blonde bombshell is ready to meet someone who will woo her, win her, bed her, and wed her—but the right man doesn’t seem to exist in cozy paranormal Pine Ridge.
At least, that’s what she thinks until a tall green hunk of gentlemanly goodness strolls into her coffee shop and quite literally takes her breath away.
Widower Douglas Wickstaff flies in from Scotland to attend a wedding in Pine Ridge out of familial duty. The last thing he wants to do is watch a happy couple tie the knot after he had to watch his own married life unravel. When he meets Georgia Fenclan, his dormant instincts awaken, and his cold heart starts to thaw under her sunny smile and no-nonsense humor. But Douglas knows he can’t be her Mr. Right. Life has taught him that where love is concerned, he’ll always be Mr. Wrong. To guard both of their hearts, Douglas is determined to hightail it back to the Highlands.
But Douglas should know his life never goes according to plan. He’s barely had time to unpack before his job unexpectedly transfers him to New York. What once seemed like a welcome escape from his painful past is suddenly a trap. How can he resist falling in love with the one woman who makes him forget his loneliness? On the other hand, how can he be selfish enough to indulge his desires when he believes Georgia can do so much better than a quiet, taciturn man like him?
As Douglas tries to put distance between them, will Georgia be able to help this wounded widower see that he deserves a second shot at love?
