Running Wild (Men from Battle Ridge, Book 1) af Linda Howard

This book was a good enough read but I don't think it's going to be a reread. I am fond of the woman on the run set up but somehow it wasn't all that interesting here. I think because her reaction seemed extreme for what had happened. Yes the other girl getting killed was bad but her running off the grid and always moving on would have made more sense if he was shown continually finding her. Because otherwise hunkering down on the ranch where there was little possibility that she would be found was the better option. Plus she knew an awful lot about Brad's computer abilities than I think she would have after just two dates. There was no tension here because until someone made a mistake you knew he couldn't find her so there was no sense of approaching danger.

The romance was okay, but slow and not very intense. There was not a lot of conflict in their relationship other than when she was going to give in and sleep with him. He didn't try very hard to win her just thought a lot that he would wait until she was ready. I almost felt like they didn't love each other. The scenes on the ranch were interesting but not enough seemed to happen to fill up a book this long.

I'll try the rest of the books in the series when they come out I guess. But I won't be holding my breath.… (mere)

Running Wild (Men from Battle Ridge, Book 1) af Linda Howard

I enjoyed this book. A good beginning to a new series. Unfortunately, there hasn't yet been a follow up. In this book, the main character, Carlin, is running from a stalker ex. She lands in Battle Ridge at Zeke's ranch. There she finds a hiding place but also love. The only problem I had with the book was that the stalker ex seemed too extreme. Otherwise this was a well written enjoyable story.

Running Wild: The Men from Battle Ridge af Linda Howard

Zeke was a straightforward guy and like in all good romances, devoted to protecting his woman. Carlin made a good fist of being a ranch cook - that was the most interesting thing about her - didn't find her so interesting as a romance character. Found the Brad stalking plot line a little boring, but still, a reliable yarn from Linda Howard and Linda Jones.

Running Wild af Linda Howard

I didn't get very far - Chapter 5 only.. it was so detailed with ramblings about how Carlin always needed to be safe, and couldn't do stuff because Brad was could find her.. and Zeke went on and on about the cooking and laundry.. mundane tasks. Both situations were repeated over and over. So I had to stop the book. When Carlin was joking around she came across more of a silly airhead.. not funny at all.

As I was listening to the audio edition, the reader I found limited - not enough voices for the characters, and while her voice was not annoying, I would have liked more enthusiasm and expression in the reading.

I usually enjoy Linda howards books.. but this one is not for me. Sadly it goes into my small DNF pile.… (mere)
