The Orc and the Manny by Chloe Archer
4.0

Max is the poster child for body positivity, he’s a full figured femme man who’s wonderfully vibrant in personality and clothing. Targan is a somewhat reserved professor who is a gentle and caring silver fox, cinnamon roll orc leading a somewhat reclusive life with his books.
Circumstances bring these two wonderful men together in Mystic Hollow where the Otherkind can live in peace and magic is real. Soon Max endears himself to not only Targan and the orclings in his care but everyone else in town with his enthusiasm and lust for life. The chemistry between Max and Targan is undeniable and when they begin to slowly explore that side of the relationship the steam builds.
This is very enjoyable and heartwarming read with adorable characters, an element of lurking menace and an HEA that had me smiling. We also get a peek into the who gets their story told in the next book and I can’t wait!
