When icy blue meets amethyst eyes, and gagging ensues
By Tracy Vest
When a friend calls in a marker and asks Elite Ops agent Nik Steele to investigate why an honest lady would point to him as a murderer, Nik thinks that it will be a quickie investigation and he can bet back with his team. Then he meets virginal witness Mikayla and is instantly attracted and finds that he believes that she's telling the truth also. Particularly when she suddenly becomes a target. Can Nik resist the urge to take Mikayla's innocence while protecting her?
Well, this is a Lora Leigh novel, so of course the virginal heroine is disrobed and spread out for the hero within moments of meeting him, despite spending years dreaming of wearing white to her wedding and giving herself to her husband. And despite his massive girth and her lack of innocence, of course the Earth moves for both of them and she is instantly smitten, while he resists her because he is not worthy... Yeah, we've read this recycled plot so many times now that it has become redundant.
I love a spicy romance, which is why despite my better judgment, I always seem to cave in and give Leigh one more chance. And I am usually disappointed. Am I alone in thinking that I'd much rather read two or three well written love scenes than 15 redundant couplings that border on a chatty acrobatic anatomy lesson? The whole virgin meets an older battle scarred he-man who thinks nothing of deflowering her because he simply must possess her is a huge turnoff. And all the anoying chatting during sex? I found myself wanting to tell them to shut the heck up and get on with it. And if I had to hear how ethereal and fairy like she was with her amethyst eyes meeting his icy blue ones... well let's just say I just threw up in my mouth. The suspense was also lacking, with a haiku last minute character add-on that was just ridiculous (and yet not surprising). The (lack of) editing is also horrendous.
If you are looking for an author that can actually incorporate a plot into a spicy storyline, make a beeline toward Megan Hart, Bella Andre, Shiloh Walker, Lisa Marie Rice, or Toni Blake/Lacey Alexander. They are still at the top of their game. And apparently have decent editors!.

So Bad It's Funny To Read (D Grade)
By Katie Babs
Where oh where shall I begin about Renegade, the latest book by Lora Leigh? Here we have a tortured, beats his chest angsty hero and a twenty-six-year old virgin heroine who waits with bated breath for her prince charming to come along and sweep her off her feet. Instead she gets a man who constantly puts her down because of her obsession with wearing a white wedding dress and a proud V-card carrying member.
Mikayla Martin lives in a small town where everyone seems to know your name. She comes from a family full of love and cheer, as well as being independent, up to a certain point because her parents and brothers feel the need to know her whereabouts every minute of the day. Mikayla, who will spit in your eye if you dare to call her Kayla, owns her own exclusive clothing shop where she makes wedding dresses from hand. Mikayla is obsessed with having her own white wedding to the point that she will stay a virgin until she meets that perfect man who not only can pop her cherry with such precision, but can give her that white picket fence, the mini-van, 2.5 children and most likely a dog, cat, goldfish...the whole nine yards.
But Mikayla's dreams come crashing down when she goes to pick up her irresponsible, rascally brother from work. Mikayla's brother up and left, forgetting to tell her that he found a new ride home. And while she's waiting for him, she witnesses a shooting and swears it's Maddix Nelson, this big wig in town. But no one believes Mikayla, for Maddix has an alibi with witnesses and everything.
As Mikayla runs around trying to get everyone and their dog to believe what she saw was fact, Madddix calls in a favor and Nikolai Steele aka Renegade comes vrooming into town on his "wicked black Harley." Nik is ornery, mean and dark. Maddix has been framed and because he cares for Mikayla, (but not in a dirty old man way) and wants Nik to get to the bottom of this before Mikayla is hurt, marked for death, assassinated, or something unsettling on the horizon that gives Maddix the wiles.
Broody Nik, who's a dripping orgasm, thinks Mikayla is too little Miss Mary Sunshiny. How can she be so pure and innocent? How dare she not even have one parking ticket in her past? Nick will look further into this pearl of a woman who is so not for him because she's the marrying kind and gasp- a virgin!
But then Nik and Mikayla chat and soon she's the victim of a few scary events such as a mugging that's really a warning for her to keep quiet. Nik will protect her because the lion inside of him, or perhaps his crouching tiger, hidden dragon, wants Mikayla as his mate and not even she can keep him away.
Then we have scene upon scene of incredible foreplay where Nik puts his mouth, tongue and fingers to good use. He stops from going to far, even though Nik wants to lose his little Nick in Mikayla's body. He'll respect her wishes to wait for some phantom prince charming to marry her. Until them he'll make her ooh and ahh much like the fake orgasm scene in When Harry Met Sally and still be able to wave her V-card around.
After more than a few going downtown scenes where Mikayla is close to drowning in a messy river of passion, she comes to the conclusion that she'll gladly let Nik tear up her V-card because no other man makes he feel so... horny and complete; but still not the type who she'll marry. No sir, because as soon as Nik finds the villain responsible for trying to kill Mikayla, he's outtie on his wicked Harley. Just as Mikayla has her V-card status, Nik proudly has his own "I'm a loner baby card, and can only give you massive climaxes, but not my heart, soul and all that jazz where I would settle down into small town life because I was married once before and it didn't turn out well at all."
So, while Nik and Mikayla have enough sex to bring on some major chafing between the two, they figure out who is behind the murder and scary tactics against Mikayla. And let me tell you, it's a scene worthy right out of the old nighttime soaps of Dallas or Dynasty.
Renegade was ridiculously bad reading. Nik is a cringe worthy caricature of what a hero should be, and more than half the time I felt he should have gone to therapy. The man has enough resources and people on his phone, but why not a good therapist?
Mikayla kept pushing and pulling Nik every which way, and just as Nik was led around by his wee-wee, Mikayla was led around by her hoo-haa.
The love scenes border on purple prose and were written the same almost every time. Think of insert tab A into Tab B and there you go. But every so often there would be an outcry of emotion from Nik as he reflected on his lovemaking with Mikayla while in the middle of it with a deep thought such as:
"And he knew Mikayla. She would want children. She would hunger for children. And Nick knew he could never, ever allow himself to take that risk again."
Nik, why not just buy Mikayla a happy meal if she was so hungry?
Lora Leigh is insanely popular for reasons that escape me. With ho-hum love scenes that seem to be written identically each and every time, and with characters that are way too emotive and cartoonish, I can't help but wonder why.
This was my first book in a long time by Lora Leigh and after reading Renegade, I would have to say that she and I simple don't fit.
All she left me with was a bad craving for a McDonald Big Mac and plastic Happy Meal Toy.

Ms. Leigh needs new editor.
By 24paws
I liked the book because I love the series and I'm glad Nik got his own story. But too many mistakes are making it into the final copy. One mistake is Nik arrives for a meeting in a Hummer and leaves on his Harley. Cool trick. Another Kira is substitued for Mikayla. In another place Nik and Makayla are having a conversation and Makayla is washing dishes then she loads the dishwasher and turns it on then she goes back to washing dishes all while trying to have a serious conversation with Nik. Also, why did Nik tell Makayla he had to go out for awhile and reappears a very,very short time later to assist Makayla with her shower and take her to bed? Near the end when Kera is shot twice, wouldn't Ian have stayed with her instead of helping bring down the bad guys when his seal team was there to help? There are the expected misspelled words or words not used correctly.
I love this whole series of books and I have all of them, way back to Reno, commander of the seal team. Ms. Leigh deserves someone better to edit her work and she needs to edit her own work better. These mistakes are becoming expected not unusal. With all the books she sells shouldn't the publisher, St. Martin Paperbacks, respect her a little more and make sure the mistakes are few and far between. I hope the next book not due out till spring will be better edited and I like it a whole lot better when more of the team members are around to help.
