"Stolen Fury" has a lot of strengths and a number of weaknesses. I almost quit reading it halfway through but kept going. I hate not finishing something I start.
What didn't I like? The repetitiveness. The two main characters couldn't look at each other without rehashing their feelings and sexual attraction every time. I mean, over and over and over and over and over and well, you get the idea. There were times when I didn't care too much for the two main characters, especially Lisa. I like strong-willed people, but it's good to have some wisdom in conjunction with "I'm not listening, I don't care what you say." Also, they're thieves. I didn't care if they got what they were after. And Rafe's reason for stealing for money seemed contrived.
But, I have to say, the ending made up for their character flaws. They both learned and did the right thing in the end, so that is a plus. The ending also had a number of surprises that I enjoyed. I gave this book 3 stars on Goodreads.
