Barbarian's Tease by Ruby Dixon
3.0

Highlights:
Taushen and Brooke were okay. I liked Brooke's personality and Taushen was sweet when he wasn't being the most uncommon active asshole. I care the most about the set up for Ice Home! I'm really excited for a new series with new dynamics and different alien people!

Lowlights:
Usually the misunderstandings are based in cultural differences but I think Taushen is just dumb. Brooke explains that she was "roofied" and even though he doesn't understand what a "roofie" is, she also says she has to bang him because of the aliens and he still misunderstands this. And then we do the kidnapping bit AGAIN which is tired at this point. Also Bek is so annoying. He doesn't want the pod people woken up but this was entirely his fault in the first place that they came there. If he didn't have a mate already he would've wanted them opened immediately. His hypocrisy is so annoying.

Horn Level: 5/5
