4.25

After rereading: 4.25⭐️ I enjoyed this so so much. While I wanted to just yell at them to kiss already, they both had very real things to overcome before being together. Their pasts are both very traumatic. It got more lighthearted as it went on. The language and cultural barrier was so funny at times. Haeden’s utter devotion to Josie was SO sweet. So many cute moments. 

Original review: 3⭐️ This is like ultimate enemies to lovers. This couple has intrigued me throughout all of the other books so I was excited to read this one. Poor Haedon! His story was so sad. I loved reading this!

This one was SO FUNNY. I absolutely love Haeden!! He's so grumpy & matter-of-fact but also super sensitive & sweet; him FRANKISSING her foot was hilarious & so was him carrying her all the way back to the tribe after their sky-claw run-in. I just didn't love Josie for most of it - which was surprising because I liked her in the last book.

I love all the ice planet barbarians books and they're my comfort books. This is my second read of this one. Enemies to lovers and slight miscommunication tropes. Would recommend any of the series!
