My Review:
Held Against You by Season ViningMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Kat is on the run after committing a terrible crime. She is picked up by a bounty hunter who is known in the business for always getting his target. They have several days to drive to where he will turn her in, and during that time things get complicated. People aren't always what they seem in many ways.
This was a story that I read straight through once I'd started it. The dynamic between Kat and her bounty hunter is really interesting and both are engaging characters that are easy to connect to. There is all kinds of action going on, and twists and turns which just adds to the unique environment where Kat and her bounty hunter's relationship begins to grow. It's sometimes tough to know who to trust, but my instincts proved pretty accurate in the end. There are a lot of times when it is unclear how these characters are going to make it through, and what possible outcome they could have. The sexual chemistry between Kat and her bounty hunter is undeniable and very hot. I would gladly read more by this author in the future.
