Oh, lawdy, Miss Maureen needs her smelling salts and someone to hand her the lacy fan she dropped.
This book is hot, but romantic too. The one thing it is not is very suspenseful.
Paxton Walsh is getting married to a major FBI target, Grant Robinson. One of the agents, a man whose heart she broke ten years before, is overcome by idiocy and kidnaps her from the church. Hunter Reese thinks he is saving Paxton from being treated as a suspect once her husband of ten minutes is arrested. But instead she becomes the target of the man she left at the altar, who due a series of unfortunate events for the FBI, is still a free man. But he is not happy man.
So Hunter and Paxton go on the run trying to stay ahead of a vengeful Grant Robinson. Bella does a good job of giving plausible explanations of how Grant keeps finding them, except in the last instance.
The story flows, is fun, hot, romantic, with likable characters, and an interesting story.

Hunter's Captive, Cassandra Bella
Review from Jeannie Zelos book reviews

Genre:  Romance, Mystery and thrillers

I enjoyed this story, but parts were a little hard to take, and though they moved the tale to where it needed to be they lacked real credibility. 

Paxton, rich girl, daddy's girl, trust fund baby, shared a beautiful summer with Hunter ten years ago. Then it all went wrong, and he's been bitter about it ever since.
He's focused on his career, and the boy from the poor side of the town has done well, is a top agent and he thinks he's moved on.
Then the case he's on involves Paxton. He can't bear to think of her locked up just because its her wedding day to the jerk who's finally being brought in. So....he kidnaps her.
That part one of the hard to take bit. Would a professional really do that? and get away with it with his boss and colleagues? Still, they're on the run now and it seems her fiancee has sent killers after them. 

Paxton is so angry at Hunter and thinks he's just doing this out of revenge. Her fiancee a wanted man? Please ( roll eyes), he's not like that she says, he's a good man, her father admires him, he's a solid businessman.
She won't believe Hunter until the others track them down and they're running ( well driving) for their lives, at breakneck speed down the mountain side. How did they find them?
Well, that's the second hard to take part. She's an intelligent woman and would she really do that? I can see the first part, out of concern and worry but the second thing she lets out, perleease...she'd have more sense surely. Or maybe she is just a dumb blonde...

Anyway, there they are running out of danger and the tensions are high. The attraction between them that each thought was gone is clearly still there, and before long they're talking about the past, have become close again, very close and are into some erotic and sensual sex. Can they have a future?
Well, first thing is to escape the danger they're in..

Its a fun read, some hot and heavy sensuality, some danger and excitement and made for a decent read to pass away a coupe of hours.
Its not one I'd re-read, but I did enjoy it despite those couple of irritations in inconceivability factor.  

Stars: four, a decent but one off read for me.

Action packed second chance romance, this story grabbed my attention from the very beginning and held it till the very end, the hero and heroine had great chemistry, I would have loved an epilogue!!
