Monster Brides is a seven-book orc romance series by Alana Khan, with all seven books published in 2023. The series follows Owned By The Orc, Promised To the Orc, Sheltered by the Orc, An Offer to the Orc, The Orc’s Bidding, The Orc’s Reluctant Bride, and Her Orc Husband, each centering on an orc hero and a human heroine navigating the customs of orc marriage.
The series title reflects a structured cultural framework in which human women become brides in an orc society. Each book explores a different stage or type of relationship within that framework, from initial claiming through established marriage. The orc society worldbuilding gives the series more internal consistency than many of Khan’s individual-hero series.
All seven books function as standalone romances, though reading in publication order provides the best sense of how the orc culture operates. Monster Brides is a strong starting point for readers interested in orc romance who want a series with consistent cultural worldbuilding.
