I’m an Orc personal trainer with one get the Easter Bunny shredded before the holiday rush. The problem? A curvy chocolatier who keeps tempting him, and me, with her dangerously good truffles. My name is Brok. I’m seven feet of green muscle, tusks, and discipline. I’ve trained Minotaurs for maze runs and the Headless Horseman for his midnight ride. I don’t fail my clients. But Barnaby the Easter Bunny is testing me. He’s soft, sluggish, and sneaking carbs. The culprit of this corruption? A tiny bakery called The Cocoa Bean. My plan is confront the owner, cut the sugar supply, and get Barnaby back on track. Then I meet Hazel. She doesn’t flinch at my size. She argues with my scowl. She wields a rolling pin like a weapon and guards her pastries with the fierce devotion of someone who truly loves butter. And she has no idea I’m an Orc in disguise or that her sweetest “customer” is a magical being on a deadline. I came here to stop Barnaby from cheating. I’m supposed to stay focused. But around Hazel? Focus is the first thing to melt. Cardio with the Easter Orc is a cozy, holiday monster romance perfect for readers who enjoy the gym-ready spice of Muscles & Monsters and the whimsical comfort of Legends & Lattes.
