Orok Half-giant. Rawball defensive tank on the Philadelphia Hellhounds. Follower of Urzoth...only Orok’s tired of following the god of aggression.
Alexo Cheerleader. Human? A dancer with a stadium’s worth of secrets.
When Orok saves Alexo at a bar, fans go feral for the star athlete protecting the pint-size dude-in-distress. The Hellhounds propose that Orok and Alexo start a PR relationship to put a positive spin on Orok’s god. Orok is set to refuse and renounce Urzoth—but that wouldn’t let him see Alexo again.
So, like a sap, he agrees.
As Orok tries to drop the fake part of their fake-relationship, Alexo’s dangerous truths emerge. To save him, Orok will have to sacrifice far more than his divine association.

My Review: 5/5 Stars
Orok finally returns home to Philly to play roarball for the Hellhounds. He is more than glad to be back in this town his with his best friend and for the law suit that has been years in the making to be finally over. Even more, he is just tired of being a follower of Urzoth and is ready to leave him and his past behind. He wants that clean slate. But fate has different plans. When he first sees Alexo, Orok knows he is in trouble. There is a connection between them and Orok wants to find out more. What he doesn’t like is when someone tries to hurt Alexo. In standing up for him though, turns out that catches a lot of attention. The Hellhounds and church of Urzoth propose a plan to better their PR if Alexo and Orok agree to a fake relationship. And somehow they find themselves saying yes. But Orok wants real, Alexo has secrets, and there is danger in the shadows ready to hurt them both. Loved being back in this world! This was such a fun magical world and I’m glad we got to read Orok’s story. The guy has been through enough and deserves some happiness. And Alexo is really the perfect guy for him. It was fun watching these two fall for one another. Just a fun story all around!
