Review: Sexy caveman hero, but not enough story to go with all that manhood

Pursuit is a prequel to the short storyTemptation in Texas: Logan and Lauren. Pursuit is the story of how Logan and Lauren meet and just how hard and fast he pursues her. Mostly, I thought Pursuit was an okay read and don't regret giving it a try. Not bad at all, but I didn't love this the way I expected to. Loved the hero, but the rest of the story didn't shine the way he did.By far, the stand out and best thing is the hero. Logan is what this author does so well: alpha-male heroes-- relentless, possessive, jealous, and almost stalkerish. All good, sexy things. Logan really makes this story for me, and I loved this line from him: <Don't you forget that you belong to me. Every inch of you, Lauren. It's mine. You understand me? I'm not going to share. I'm never going to share, and I'll kill any ----sucker who tries to take what's mine.> Now, that's good stuff! This author writes one hellavu alpha-male hero.Other things about this story I felt could have been better, though. I think there could have been more dialogue, more vocal interaction besides only in the sex scenes. I think too many things were said/thought internally with a character, and that inner dialogue began to feel repetitive, making many of the scenes feel the same, so a lot of the story felt the same. A lot of internal struggle with this couple. The pace felt off to me, and it wasn't until the second half of the story that I felt things were beginning to flow better. Also, I think the heroine was overshadowed by the hero. She didn't stand out enough to me.I'm a Lynda Chance fan, love her heroes and her style of romance, but this latest was just okay to me.
