Look what the Chihuahua dragged in.
When Karly wanders outside her mountain cabin into the snowstorm to see why her dog is going nuts, she’s expecting an injured animal, not a muscular mammoth of a man who’s unconscious and about to freeze to death if she doesn’t drag him inside and try to tend his wounds. He’s wearing only a few pieces of fur-and-leather armor—cosplayer or insane mountain man?—and his wild hair and beard haven’t seen a pair of scissors in a year or more. But when he wakes up and opens those amber-hazel eyes, Karly’s too caught off guard to protest his lack of appropriate clothing.
He doesn’t speak English, so Karly uses her skills as a foreign language teacher (and a lot of charades) to teach him. She needs to figure out who he is, why he’s dressed like a Skyrim character, what happened to him, and where he belongs so she can get him home.
That plan goes awry when his story starts coming out in broken English, and he claims to be a Visigoth from the year 483. Other than that little glitch, he doesn’t seem crazy, so Karly’s not sure whether to take him to the mental hospital or the homeless shelter. Or, just keep him around and drool over his hunky physique, his sweet smile, and his lion’s mane of hair. Plus, when her druggie ex-husband shows up high and hell-bent on manhandling Karly, it comes in handy to have a 6 foot 6 barbarian around to bounce him right on back to his Hummer with a bloody nose.
Valamir is condemned to execution, and the dungeon guards are on their way to his cell. So when his captor’s wife offers to use her Druidic powers to save his life in exchange for his undying pledge of love and loyalty, he sees no other way out. A quick blood-pact and hasty incantation later, he finds himself transported out of prison, trudging down a mountain in a blizzard and stumbling into the back yard of the most lovely guardian angel Wodin could have ever sent him. Karly is beautiful, smart, efficient, and caring—everything Valamir’s ever wanted in a woman. Only problem is, she suspects he’s either lying or delusional when he tells her where he’s from, a huge barrier to winning her trust and love. He has to find a way to prove himself to Karly while protecting her from her ex-husband and praying the Druidic priestess doesn’t make good on her promise to call him back to her side forever.

Title Sweet Barbarian
Author Jayla Jasso
Designation Full-Length Standalone Time Travel Romance, NO Cliffhanger
Reading Platform Edition
My Rating Five Delightfully Entertaining Stars*****
Oh my! I loved, loved, loved this book! This was my first time reading the work of Jayla Jasso but it certainly won't be my last! I've been a fan of Time Travel Romance for years. There's just something about the concept that I've always highly romanticized but, most often, we find the woman traveling to the past and finding her knight in shining armor or chainmaille. lol... In this story, however, Jasso gives us a twenty-seven-year-old male Visigoth warrior traveling from 483 A.D. to current day Colorado by way of a spell cast by a powerful Druid priestess. Jasso grabbed my attention on the first page and I remained hopelessly enthralled until the very last line. But an intriguing and unique storyline is not the only extraordinary element of this powerful love story. Sweet Barbarian is a fast-paced, easy to follow, highly imaginative, exceptionally well crafted and written full-length standalone romance with a wonderful cast of fascinating, endearing and very engaging characters who completely stole my heart. The narrative is beautifully written in the third person with easily identifiable his and her perspectives from the two protagonists, handsome Visigoth warrior Valamir Braga and lovely kindhearted Spanish teacher Karly Draper. The dialogue is smart, well executed and flows effortlessly. Jasso has only three published novels listed on and a fourth due to be released in June 2017 but the comfortable, easy prose of this author is just extraordinary. I've read authors who have worked a lifetime to accomplish this level of skill but Jasso makes it look effortless. I was completely mesmerized, riveted to my ereader with my heart fluttering in my chest as the time flew as quickly as the pages. It was a wonderful experience. I giggled, snickered, snorted, snuffled, sniffed, and raged through the entire story but by the end, I was happy, satisfied and well entertained. Sweet Barbarian is the perfect combination of sweet romance, steamy passion, surprising humor, and heartbreaking angst. And make no mistake, this is definitely a very powerful and moving love story that transcends time and space. Sweet Barbarian truly makes me believe in the power of love again!
Did I like this book? No, I LOVED it! Would I recommend it? You bet and I am but only for adult readers since it does contain some steamy, dreamy love scenes which do include explicit but tastefully written love scenes! Swoon..... Will I read this author again? Absolutely! I raced to and decided to read Caribbean Jewel next! And finally, was I entertained? Completely! Fabulous entertainment and an awesome read!
For thirty-four-year-old divorced Karly Draper, it was just another cold winter night in the Colorado mountains. School was out for Christmas vacation and Karly planned to spend it at home alone. After finally gaining her freedom from her abusive, drug-addicted ex-husband Shawn, Karly had no desire for a social life and when not working, spent most of her time in her isolated mountain cabin with her little dog Lulu. And she was happy with her life... until Lulu alerted her to a large animal who had apparently succumbed to some sort of injuries as well as the cold and collapsed on her property. Only it wasn't an animal... it was a very large unconscious man with long hair and beard lying face down in the snow, wearing only a leather and fur skirt and fur boots. And no shirt... Yikes! And he was dying from hypothermia. So, Karly did what any kindhearted Christian would do, right? She dragged him inside and used her body heat to warm him. Oh my! She never planned on falling in love with him, especially since he had to be crazy. He might be handsome but there's no way he could really be from the year 483, right? Apparently, he could and Karly would eventually have to make a decision that would alter her life forever. Can a Visigoth warrior from the past find love and happiness with a modern day woman from Colorado? We'll see!
Well, this one was definitely interesting. So, Sweet Barbarian by Jayla Jasso is a story of two eople coming together across time and space to find one another and fall in love. However, this love story comes with its fair share of problems. Karly is trying to survive the long cold winter in her cabin when her dog starts to bark like crazy. Annoyed at having to go out into the cold, she goes to see what is causing her dog such an issue. What she finds is far better that anything she could have imagined a man. Not just your run of the mill guy out for a stroll either, this man is physically chiseled and wearing little more than a loin cloth. Not sure if this guy is a nut or a deep woods survivor, Karly beings him inside and slowly begins to learn that this man really is too good to be true. He is a time traveler who was about to be executed but made a deal with a Druid princess for his life. Karly and the man start to fall in love, but the Druid and Karly's ex-husband have their own thoughts on how this love story will come to an end.
Sweet Barbarian is a love story but a love story that some guys would probably enjoy as well. The style is done in a way that moves the narrative along quickly and there is enough subtle humor from Vladimir the Barbarian to keep guys at least chuckling as they make their way through. What stands out to me the most is how creative of a topic this is. When I saw the cover I thought this would be another run of the mill romance. But, this actually broke the mold and did a great job of it. I'm not sure if Jayla has plans for sequels or not, but I think these characters and the idea of the story could be worked with some more. Great job!
