Love, Laugh, Lich (Claws & Cubicles, #1)
Kate Prior
Some people have monsters for a boss, but not everyone has an undead Necromancer Lord at the office.
Lily has been the Lich's secretary ever since his evilness took over the company. She loves her job, but she's got some questions about her boss. Like what's under that cloak of ever-billowing.
Her wondering intensifies when one day the Lich needs something from her that isn't just scheduling appointments-- but a shiver. He needs it for a spell, but it feels like it crosses a line from their usual workplace banter.
After her contributions to his dark rituals become more than OSHA compliant, sex-magic-and-triple-cocks-oh-my, she starts to contemplate whether the Lich Lord returns her feelings, or still only sees her as his secretary. Lily may have given him her body, but he never asked for her heart.
The Orc from the Office (Claws & Cubicles, #2)
Kate Prior
Mate-bonding with a co-worker is against company policy... accidentally or not.
Janice knows better than anyone that entanglements with co-workers are risky business.
But when Janice accidentally breaks a co-worker's nose, she finds herself accidentally mate-bonded to an orc, and under Monster Resources' scrutiny.
Khent from the IT Department is quiet and nerdy, despite the tusks.
His emails are overly wordy. He won't stop apologizing even though she's the one who broke his glasses.
All Janice has to do is stay away from Khent until the bond dissipates. Easy enough, except...
...Her company laptop chooses this week to need the orc from the IT department, repeatedly.
...She accidentally clicks on orc porn at work and has to take remedial phishing training with Khent.
...The bond has her horny 24/7 and suddenly she can't stop running into Khent at work.
