Cara North

I need to say up front that if it hadn't been for the myriad printing/editing errors, I would probably have given "Chasing Joshua" by Cara North four stars.

Misspellings, incorrect words, and the occasional grammar mistakes don't bug me so much, but when I find myself starting to count them...that's not good!

She's a hand-to-hand and weapons fighting expert bounty hunter in trouble. He's a former big-city undercover cop turned elementary school teacher. She despises men...all men. He's looking for a gentle woman to settle down with. Yet somehow, it doesn't take long for these two to realize the attraction between them is strong and the longer they're together, the stronger it gets. Something's just got to give.

I loved the first book in this series. I liked the plot line for this one. But there were missing pieces of the story and the action tended to jump rather than flow. I also had a hard time buying the heroine's rapid mellowing and the quickness with which she was willing to spill her deepest secrets to the hero. I would also have liked to have seen the mystery fleshed out a bit better as some parts of it left me confused even after the ending.

Did I still like the book? Well, yes I did. If you can find a later printing with corrections it would be well worth it. Or if things like that don't bother you like they do me, then this is certainly a story I'd recommend. There's a bit of suspense, a bit of action, a whole lot of sexual tension and some nice, hot sex.… (plus d'informations)
