Barbarian's Heart by Ruby Dixon
3.0
fast-paced

 3⭐

I guess after 3 back-to-back bangers, it was expected that I’d get to a couple that I did not enjoy.

Amnesia plot. Pashov is injured in the earthquake, nearly dying. When he wakes, he has forgotten that past 2 years of his life – including all of his memories of the humans, his mate Stacey, and their kit.

I do like this concept, in theory. It was cute to see them reconnect and fall in love again. But Stacey was the absolute worst. So self-centered and whiny. So annoying. I really wanted her to have a growth arc and become more independent and less complacent… but that really didn’t happen.

Pashov was so damn sweet though. I really liked him, and it was cute to watch him with his family and slowly remember things. Too bad he fell in love with a big dummy.
