Tusk Love: Critical Role Book 1 Paperback By Thea Guanzon

£9.99

Released: 9th April 2026. 'Spicy, heartfelt and laugh-out-loud funny' KATEE ROBERT 'The perfect grumpy meets sunshine swashbuckling romantasy' NADIA EL-FASSI 'Thea Guanzon can convert me to any fandom' JULIE SOTO __________ A merchant’s daughter who yearns for adventure gets more than she bargained for when she falls for a broodingly handsome stranger in this saucy romantasy from the Sunday Times bestselling author of The Hurricane Wars. As the daughter of an ambitious merchant, Guinevere’s path has been predetermined: marry into a noble house of the Dwendalian Empire, raise her family’s station, and live quietly as a lordling’s obedient wife. But Guinevere longs for a life unbounded by expectations, for freedom and passion and adventure. Those distant dreams become a sudden reality when her caravan is beset by bandits, leaving her guards slain and Guinevere stranded alone on the dangerous Amber Road. Her only chance of survival is to travel alongside Oskar, the aloof half-orc who saved her during the attack. Unlike Guinevere, Oskar’s path is not so set in stone. With his mother dead and his apprenticeship abandoned, all that’s left is a long, lonely walk to a land he’s never seen to find family he’s never met. The last thing he needs is a spoiled waif like Guinevere slowing him down – even if the spark between them sizzles with promise. Despite his cold exterior, Oskar is brave and thoughtful and unlike anyone Guinevere has ever met. And while Guinevere may be sheltered, she brings out a softness in him that he has never dared to feel before. As the flames of their passion grow, they realize that soon they’ll need to choose between their expected destinations or their blossoming romance. Written by Sunday Times bestselling author Thea Guanzon at the behest of Critical Role’s Jester Lavorre, Tusk Love brings the most romantic story on Exandrian bookshelves to life. __________ 'Spice so hot, you look over your shoulder to make sure no one else is looking' ELAYNA R. GALLEA 'Will have you giggling and kicking your feet' XIRAN JAY ZHAO 'I would die for Guinevere. And Oskar. And Thea too. Her writing puts me in a chokehold every time.' NISHA J. TULI 288 pages

But Guinevere longs for a life unbounded by expectations, for freedom and passion and adventure.

    Those distant dreams become a sudden reality when her caravan is beset by bandits, leaving her guards slain and Guinevere stranded alone on the dangerous Amber Road. Her only chance of survival is to travel alongside Oskar, the aloof half-orc who saved her during the attack.
