Disappointed

I loved the Renegades series but this book didn't feel like it belonged. It was very short and made one mention of the Renegades. The plot was easy to figure out, and the story line was bland. I feel let down with this book which sucks because I was so excited because the others were so so good. Hopefully another book in the series comes out soon and will go better with the first three books than this one.

I love when I find books by authors I love that I didn't realize were out. It is like a special surprise. Rumor was one of those books. I thought I had read all the Renegade books, but nope. I had this one to read! How excited am I?

Since it has been awhile I didn't quite remember who Josh, or any of them, were at first, but it slowly started to come back to me. Josh is not a Renegade guy, but close enough. He is friends with them and was a Navy SEAL until a shoulder injury took him out of duty. When this story opens he is hanging out with all the characters from the first books, but he is not very happy. Something is missing for him. Being around all these people who are so in love just makes him want that too. But he can't. The only lady he has ever really loved he can't be with.

Grace and Josh used to be really close. She was married to one of his Navy SEAL buddies and even though they divorced a few years earlier Josh still can't go there. Even though he loves Grace he can't have her. When his buddy, her ex, calls him up and asks him to check in on her for him since she is not responding to him Josh grudgingly goes. He doesn't want to, but when he finds out she is might be stripping he knows something must be wrong. She is a dancer, she had all these dreams, if this is what she is doing now she has to have a reason.

When Josh shows up Grace is not very happy. After all he left her broken hearted last year and she just barely was able to recover from that. She can't let him back in, she can't have him walk away again. His life is in LA, hers in San Diego. She knows this and it will never work.

Man these two were so hot together! Even though Josh at first tries to fight it it is inevitable that they will get together. I loved this story. It was great that Grace is working at the strip club, but not stripping (though she has learned a few things while teaching the other girls to dance). Yes at first Josh is upset when he finds her there, but once he sees what she is doing he quickly changes his mind. He loves her and she him and they just need to work everything out. It was hot and fun and just a great read.

This story was phenomenal. Yes, Josh isn't a renegade but I agree that his story was important and I loved him and Grace.

Ok

This wasn't as good as the other books in the series to me. It felt a bit rushed. But I do enjoy the series so I will read the next book

Renegades Book 3.5

Renegades Book 3.5

Josh is heading home for Christmas when his SEAL buddy calls to have Josh check on Grace - Beck's ex-wife and the woman Josh has been trying to forget. Someone had seen Grace at a strip club and Beck asked Josh to check it out. When Josh arrives, he is shocked to find Grace teaching the strippers their moves. Now he has to decide what to do about it.

If you're looking for a story with heat and heart, this is the novella for you!

3.5-4* I really love this series and was super excited when I saw Josh's story had been release. As much as I enjoyed Rumor I felt there was just a little something missing, there wasn't the humour or connection with the characters that has been such a big part of the other books in the series. That saying, I did love catching up with Josh and finding out his story, I just wish it had been a bit...more.
