Review: A Worthy Pursuit

A Worthy Pursuit A Worthy Pursuit by Karen Witemeyer
My rating: 💛💛💛💛

Karen Witemeyer never disappoints with laughter, danger, and sweet romance.

This story fits the mold of every Karen Witemeyer story I have devoured and enjoyed in the past, but still the characters and plot are unique.

Stone quickly realized that there is more to the story of a kidnapped granddaughter than what he was hired for. I loved Charlotte and her protectiveness over the children in her care. The banter and chemistry between Stone and Charlotte were a joy to read.

It was sad to see how desperate people take advantage of others and their talents.

There were a lot of lessons to take home hidden between the pages.

About the book:


Stone Hammond is the best tracker in Texas. He never comes home empty handed. So when a wealthy railroad investor hires him to find his abducted granddaughter, Stone eagerly accepts. Charlotte Atherton, former headmistress of Sullivan's Academy for Exceptional Youths, will do anything to keep her charges safe, especially the little girl entrusted to her care after her mother's death.

Charlotte promised Lily's mother she'd keep the girl away from her unscrupulous grandfather, and nothing will stop Charlotte from fulfilling that pledge. Not even the handsome bounty hunter with surprisingly honest eyes who comes looking for them. When the teacher he's after produces documentation that shows she's the little girl's legal guardian, Stone must reevaluate everything he's been led to believe.

Is Miss Atherton villain or victim? She acts more like a loving mother than an abductress, and the children in her care clearly adore her. Should Stone break his perfect record? Then a new danger threatens, and Charlotte is forced to trust the man sent to destroy her. Stone becomes determined to protect what he once sought to tear apart. Besides, he's ready to start a new pursuit: winning Charlotte's heart.
