Summary: The Pursuit
Comment: This isn't the worst book I've ever read, but it is overly simplistic to be a Johanna Lindsey. Melissa and Lincoln meet and it's practically love at first sight. Throughout the course fo the story they don't spend much time together. The focus of the story seems to be Melissa's 16 uncles. I found it too many to keep track of (especially since many of them were named Ian) and I didn't even try. Their objection to Lincoln's pursuit of Melissa is a fight that occurred 19 years ago. This fight is brought up numerous times--enough times to bring new meaning to the phrase "making mountains out of molehills." What's more incredible is that Johanna Lindsey thought that she could base an entire novel around such a flimsy idea. My last objectioin was to Melissa's nickname--"Meli." What was that about? "Mel" maybe, but "Meli"?

Summary: Will the real Johanna Lindsey please stand up?
Comment: For the last several years I have been very disappointed with Johanna Lindsay. For starters it feels like several years until her next book comes out. After reading the last several I think I can see why. SHE'S LOST HER TOUCH! She should have just thrown the stories out rather than getting them published. It doesn't even read like a Johanna Lindsay book. Where is she? How can she let someone write this junk using her name? In the Pursuit...I don't even know where to start. The plot was horrible. Lincoln (bad name) was the worst hero I've ever read in a book. Also the language of the book--she didn't even try to make it fit into the century they were in. I hated the uncles-they were just filler for an extremely sorry plot. If I had read this book under another auther I would remember in the future to never read their books again. I could barely get from sentence to sentence without yawning let alone chapter to chapter. There was no fire between the characters. As soon as they met they knew they were for each other. Most of the Lindsey books I've loved the two main characters fought all the time but at least with those there was fire and passion. Thank God I got this book from the library; which is where I'll be getting all future Lindsey books in the future. I'll save my money for Nora Roberts or Sandra Brown or someone else equally deserving of my time and money.

Summary: the pursuit
Comment: I have never written a review before but I am so disappointed in this book that I feel compelled to warn Lindsey fans that they should not waste their time by reading this one. I kept reading hoping it would get better but it never happened. Like a previous reviewer, I had a hard time even according this book 1 star.
