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.

Your rating:
-Human Janice from HR accidentally triggers a mating bond with orc Khent from IT. They fill out the paperwork and agree to avoid each other to attempt to nullify the bond (after he’s gone down on her…) Janice is being driven wild by her hormones, and doesn’t ever make a significant effort to avoid Khent, and they eventually give in, have lots of sex, and realize they want to be together.
-Cute, fun novella. Magical bonding felt like a cool parallel to fated mates trope. Overall the book was funny, quick, hot–I’d have liked a bit more communication between the couple regarding a relationship, but it was a decent story. Khent was such a sweetheart, and I liked how respectful he was.
much better than book 1
