I wish the other reviews had been wrong, but this book was not what I was expecting. I liked the main characters well enough... and the story held LH's typcial style, but there was wayyyy too much story and not enough dialogue between the characters. I was hoping it would be like Up Close and Dangerous, and in a way it was, but too much of the book involved the characters thinking.

While I enjoyed Prey, it didn't feel like the usual Linda Howard thriller. There wasn't a lot of action or dialogue. The majority of the book had the hero and the heroine waiting out the weather together in his camping shelter in the woods.

Ms Howard is a favorite and this is an excellent example of her work. I enjoyed everything about the book. I didn't want to put it down.

I thought this was a terrific book - it had everything: love interest, adventure, complex characters. I would recommend it to anyone who likes to read 'em fast cause you just can't put it down!

It was good and had all the usual Linda Howard parts and fun pieces. I had a little bit of a problem with the location as I had lived there and know a bit more about it than the book could understand. Not a bad book just a bit short on research.

Good story, but not my favorite Linda Howard novel. I thought she got a bit dragged down in the middle and I found myself skipping over some pages which I never do with her books. Overall, a decent book.

I enjoyed this book although it is definitely not a 'keeper'. LH has definitely written more suspenseful, passionate books (ie. Kill and Tell, Dream Man for example). The story line of Angie losing her livlihood because Dare has taken all her business, and then her witnessing a murder on her last guide trip was believable but I thought the whole story was very predictable...even the part about the bear eating the bad guys. I did like the chemistry between Dare and Angie. LH has a way of always making my smile at the sharp repartee between the hero and heroine in her stories.

Two hunting guides avoid both a murderer and a killer bear in the mountains of Montana. More suspense than romance, but a pretty good read. I wish the heroine would quit twisting an ankle and having to be rescued by the hero...but guess that's part of the formula to spark the romance between "enemies". I enjoy all Linda Howard's writing style, regardless of the story.
