I've seen that before in some books, but in my instance it was a font issue where the italics were leaning so far over that the space just wasn't noticeable. Only once I opened the books in something like Sigil did I see that indeed a space was really there. Is there any chance that's the situation with your books? Not sure you can open up a kepub without converting it, but maybe trying to change fonts will make the italics look better.
