While this wasn't "Finders, Keepers" (which is BTW the best sci-fi romance ever), it was still a damn good book. I did anticipate many of the twists and turns, but really enjoyed the story. Would definitely recommend.

Science-fiction romance is just my thing. In this book there was everything that calls to me - the spaceship, the fast action, the tender yet intense romance... Devin has been in love with Kaidee for years and she has been always attracted to him in some way, even when she had been married. But she had some insecurities and doubts involving her family history and Devin's. But it all wrapped up really good and even though I liked 'Games of Command' better, it was very good.

I really liked this right up to the end. It was action packed and the romance worked. I wished we'd of gotten more story after they were safe. She always does that. She finished this one better but I still feel like there was a lot more story to tell.

One of the (many) things I appreciate about Linnea Sinclair is that, while her books are all within the sub-genre of sci-fi romance, they never feel repetitive. In other words, she doesn't write the same story lines over and over, simply repackaging them for a new release. Not only are the plots original, so are the characters. Some authors write basically one hero who simply changes name and hair color from book to book. Same with the heroines. In Linnea Sinclair's books, however, the characters are not interchangeable from title to title. No one would confuse Devin from "Rebels and Lovers" with Sully from "Gabriel's Ghost" or Rhis Vanur from "Finder's Keepers."
"Rebels and Lovers" was another immensely entertaining read from one of my favorite authors. Only now I've finished it and I have to wait who-knows-how-long for the next Sinclair book. My only consolation is that I have all her titles within reach of my computer, and I can quickly pick one up whenever I need a satisfaction-guaranteed action/romance/sci-fi fix.

3.5 stars. I didn't realize that this was part of a series when I read it, but I had no problem with it as a stand-alone. Well-written & a nice balance of adventure and romance.
I had one of those start-small-but-end-up-completely-unable-to-ignore-till-it-just-grates reaction to how often characters were referred to by their full names. I'm guessing it helped tie things back to other editions, but it ended up driving me nuts. I got it- he's a Guthrie. Move along.

This was pretty good; I found the last few chapters quite suspenseful. I do hope the author is going to continue the series as some very interesting developments came about I the last chapter.

Yet again Linnea Sinclair didn't disappoint. So far there's only been one book by her that I haven't liked, but all the others have been really good. Rebels and Lovers main character is Devin Guthrie, brother to Philip Guthrie from the previous book in the series. It was kind of interesting to have a bit more of a beta hero in the Dock Five Universe. He even has glasses! Woo! I wasn't in love with it as some of the other books in the series, but in general it's a good addition to it anyways.

Not as good as the first two books in the series, but not bad. Better than book 3.
