Poppy Waverly is used to being the quiet one. The good student. The helpful witch who never raises her hand unless she’s absolutely sure she’s right. With dream magic she’s still learning to trust and the pressure of helping plan the academy's Lunar Ball, she’s already out of her depth. Agreeing to tutor Aric Vandermere—the distractingly charming orc barely scraping by in class—only makes things more complicated.
Aric knows he’s on thin ice. If he doesn’t pass this semester, he risks losing his spot on the runeball team—and maybe his place at Coven Crest altogether. Poppy is his last shot at turning things around, but the more time he spends with her, the more he wants something he’s not sure he deserves.
What begins as reluctant tutoring soon deepens into stolen glances, shared laughter, and one magical night that changes everything. But as the Lunar Ball draws near and Poppy’s dreams begin to show signs of heartbreak, they’ll have to decide whether what they’ve found is real or just another fleeting spell.
A Witch and Her Orc is the third book in a quartet of standalones set against the backdrop of Coven Crest Academy. If you love cozy monster romance, cinnamon roll orcs, shy witches learning to shine, and slow-burn magic kissed with moonlight and spice, this one’s for you. Appropriate for readers 18+.
