Barbarian’s Valentine was another cute novella featuring some of our favorite couples. This one focused in on (my faves) Maddie & Hassen and (a fan fave) Josie & Haeden.

The premise: Maddie hasn’t seen her mate in months and is preparing a sexy reunion for when he returns (taking her cues from Valentines Day). Love her. Just everything about Maddie. She’s perfect in my eyes. ANDDD I shouldn’t be surprised that Maddie/Hassen are freaky-deaky but it made me laugh out loud hearing about their exhibitionist tendencies.

Josie and Haeden’s story was sweet. She’s pregnant with baby #3 and is trying to rekindle the steam. Haeden is, of course, precious about the whole thing.

Overall, a good time, but not my favorite of the novellas.
