Fox shifter, Carly,  wakes up after a night in a bar to discover one of her coworkers in bed with her - the only problem is he is dead.  The other problem is Carly can't prove her innocence.  After being charged with murder and released on bail, Carly decides it would be in her best interests to skip town - like immediately.  Jackson Carr is a wolf shifter who is also a bounty hunter.  Jackson is assigned Carly, but once he meets her, he realizes that she is just about the sexiest thing he has ever run into and he and his wolf both are drooling.  Carly convinces Jackson of her innocence and the rest of the book is Jackson and Carly's relationship developing, while they are looking for ways to prove Carly's innocence.There were some real positives to this book.  FIrst of all, the humor sharply reminded me of Shelly Laurenston's books, so if you like great humor with laugh out loud moments, you will thoroughly enjoy this book.  I found myself smiling through most of it, occasionally giggling and laughing out loud.  Another thing that was good was the writing by this author.  E. A. Price is a very gifted writer, with a great imagination.The negatives - Too much sex.  Yes, really.  I thought the story and the interaction between Carly and Jackson were so good, that less sex would have been very beneficial to the overall story.  As it was, sex scene after sex scene after sex scene kind of made the story lag in places.  While the scenes were very well written, I found myself skimming them to get back to the main story and what Carly and Jackson would say next.  They were both outrageous.Another thing was the misspelled words.  Taking into account that this author is evidently British or Canadian, I could forgive defence for defense or gawp for gawk, but the other 30 or so misspelled words definitely brought the rating down on this book.  Perhaps misspelled words shouldn't pull me out of the story, but they do, and after so many, I found it tough going.  If the story hadn't been so good, I would have deleted it and never bothered with EAPrice again.  Also, some of the scenes didn't really flow.  In one particular sex scene, Jackson grabbed both of Carly's wrists and held her hands above her head.  Next sentence her hands were on his hips.  What?  It's either one or the other, or there should be a transition sentence there.  If I am this author, I take this book to a good editor, fix it and repost it on Amazon.  It actually is a really good story, deserving of more respect.I believe this author is a diamond in the rough, and has a great future ahead of her.  I loved the writing and humor in this book, and hope she continues to write stories just like this one.
