Summary: The Outsider's Redemption
Review: Sarah Rand is a spunky, well drafter character of wit and charm. Cody Gannon is an appropriate Texas cowboy/agent hero. However, I couldn't get over Sarah's pregnancy as a major obstacle to believability in this story. I kept asking, why would she risk her baby's life along with her own in such a high-stakes situation? There seemed absolutely no reasonable motivation for her to risk her job, life and baby to steal computer files to entrap a criminal. I couldn't understand her initial involvement in this "case" with or without the pregnancy. Sorry, but the love scenes didn't work for me either. Sex with a man you've known a week while the story advances the hero and heroine's concern for her pregnancy during that same time? That made all the profession of love and conversations with her unborn child just naive, adolescent behavior. The resolution of the story also had a "wrap-up" scenario when all is explained at the end that was very trite and unsatisfying. I love this author's writing but the motivation of this heroine was non-existant even though the chase and action was well done.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: An exciting read.
Review: The Outsider's Redemption was exciting and action-packed from the first page to the last. The descriptions of south Texas were excellent and the characters seemed to walk right off the pages. It was the perfect conclusion to the Texas Confidential series.
