About this listen

In this captivating novel of romantic suspense, New York Times bestselling author Linda Howard brings us deep into the wild, where a smart and sexy outdoor guide and her ruggedly handsome competitor must join forces to survive—and avoid becoming what they never expected to be: PREY.

Thirty-two-year-old Angie Powell has always spoken her mind, but in the presence of Dare Callahan she nurses a simmering rage. After all, why give Dare the satisfaction of knowing he can push her buttons and push her to the edge?

Three years ago, Dare returned home to rural western Montana and opened a hunting business to rival Angie’s. Complicating matters is the fact that Dare has asked Angie out (not once but twice) and has given her a gift of butterflies in the process. Angie has no patience for butterflies. They only lead to foolish decisions. And now the infuriatingly handsome Iraq war vet has siphoned away Angie’s livelihood, forcing her to close up shop. Before Angie is to leave town, she organizes one last trip into the wilderness with a client and his guest, who wants to bag a black bear. But the adrenaline-fueled adventure turns deadly when Angie witnesses a cold-blooded murder and finds herself on the wrong side of a loaded gun. Before the killer can tie up this attractive loose end, a bear comes crashing through the woods—changing the dark game completely.

Luckily, Dare is camping nearby and hears the shots. Forced together for their very survival, Angie and Dare must confront hard feelings, a blinding storm, and a growing attraction—while being stalked by a desperate killer and a ferocious five-hundred-pound beast. And neither will stop until they reach their prey.

Their story is nice but too predictable. He is though and quiet, she was strong and fierce, both see their lives change in 3 days. A little exagerated... But sweet anyway.

Good, nothing fantastic though

Where does Prey rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

This is over the top. The night Angie witnessed the client kill his boss and the bear attacked kept me on the edge of my seat.

Kept me reading to the wee hours of the morning.

What made the experience of listening to Prey the most enjoyable?

I enjoyed the narration and characters portrayed

What did you like best about this story?

The story was well written and executed as an audible book. The story itself brought me back to some older works of Linda Howard I maintain on my book and audible keeper shelves. Angie and Dare were a likeable couple and eventually brought out the best in each other. I particularly enjoyed how Dare trusted Angie; even in the most dangerous situations. An excellent story I have already listened to twice. Keep up the good work.

Linda Howard - One of the best

Is there anything you would change about this book?

Yes, I would change and/or delete some of the scenes with the bear. I found them repulsive - much too graphic for my tastes. I believe the average reader knows what devastation can be done to the human body by a bear.

What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?

I enjoy reading this author's books for the personal relationships that seem to go from disdain to love. It gives hope to anyone in a terrible relationship that there might be some small way that they can actually fall in love with someone that they thought was the wrong person.

What three words best describe Abby Craden’s performance?

Disjointed, Disappointing, Distracting

If this book were a movie would you go see it?

No.
