Barbarian's Beloved
Ruby Dixon · Ice Planet Barbarians #16
A gentle alien knows his human mate's worth better than she does — and will do anything to make her believe it.
Description
My tribesmates don’t understand her. The other humans think she’s weak. But no one knows my mate like I do. They don’t see her gentle heart or her brave spirit. I know why she struggles. I know how strong she is. And I know I’ll do anything to make her smile. But can I convince her that she can be happy in this strange new world with me? This story explores the long-awaited romance of Ariana and Zolaya. Even though it is a ‘flashback’ to the beginning of the Ice Planet Barbarians series, it can be read out of order.
