It was always nothing more than a one night stand for Issy.  The first book of this trilogyThe Hunter (Orion the Hunter Part One)dealt mainly with Issy and her desire to bed Lucas.  It ends with them both going to her apartment to consumate their mutual desires...and Issy moving on afterwards.  This story begins where the last story left us...however Lucas is now the hunter who cannot let Issy go now that he's had her.Issy wanted Lucas so badly that at first I thought the story would be solely about her chasing Lucas (I dislike stories where the girl chases the boy).  But that is SO not the case!Issy is true to form....."love 'em and leave 'em" attitude  She has no problem with working with Lucas (redesigning his new builiding) even though they've been intimate.  She's truely gotten him out of her system.  But Lucas is just getting started.  He's not about to let Issy go!  He wants to pursue a a personal relationship.  She doesn't.  Yet he cannot forget her...try as he might.  She's reduced this strong, confident, powerful Alpha Male into a deflated, crushed, groveling mess.  He was once ruthless, arrogant and controlling...but no more.  And now Issy becomes determinied to change and correct the mess she's made of him.The more Lucas gets to know Issy, the more he realizes her damage.  He finds it ironic that the one woman he breaks all his rules for and allows into his life, doesn't want anything to do with him on a long term relationship.  No matter.  He wants her!!!I absolutely loved this second installment of this trilogy.  I adore Lucas and his persistent, commanding persona.  He doesn't like the position that Issy has him in yet he relentlessly persues her nonetheless.It should be noted that this book does not stand alone.  That is, you must read the first installment of this trilogy to understand the issues that take place in this installment.  But don't worry..the first book is only 6 short chapters.  I finished it in less than 2 hours.I'm off to read the third and final installment of this story.  Brava and Encore Ms. Chase.
