Barbarian Mine

I really lost my momentum with this installment of IPB... There was just something off in the vibes.

One of the most alluring aspects of this series is that the male characters are the ideal balance of manly-protective man & sensitive-caring-giving man. I also love how the women are constantly empowered in various ways. However, both of those felt pretty lost here to my dismay. I also felt a little icky about the intimacy between the two main characters due to their circumstances... Bummer!
