Summary: Good Story...
Review: ...but I can't say I loved it. I didn't feel like they knew each other enough for their lust to turn into love. It really bothered me when they finally did "make love" too. I don't think they could have picked a worse time or a worse place! Other than that it was a good story though. I enjoyed reading about Maggie and Drew.

Summary: ANOTHER GREAT READ
Review: Gayle Wilson's books are addictive. Her stories and characters are fascinating, her skill as a writer is unique. There are storytellers and there are writers, this multi-award winning author is that rare and wonderful combination of both.

RENEGADE HEART is Gayle Wilson at her best. And now I'm faced with the long wait until her next Intrigue.

Summary: Renegade Heart
Review: Gayle Wilson's Men of Mystery meet "The Fugitive" in "Renegade Heart." When a prison bus accident allows him to escape, former CIA agent Drew Evans sets out to find the man whose perjured testimony put him behind bars. But the man is dead and his widow is shocked by Drew's claims. Maggie Cannon understands too well why her husband would agree to lie on the stand and agrees to help Drew prove his innocence. Is it because she feels she owes him, or because of the attraction she feels for this dangerous man?

"Renegade Heart" is a book packed with compelling scenes and emotional moments, told in Wilson's unique style. The author keeps the reader nicely off balance. Just when we think we know where a section is going, there is an unexpected twist. This makes for a satisfyingly suspenseful atmosphere that will keep readers on their toes, while the sparks between the main characters will draw them in.

The book is being sold on the basis of its "mysterious" hero. For me, its strongest part was really the heroine. Unlike the heroine of the last Men of Mystery book, "Her Private Bodyguard," Maggie was someone I sympathized with and admired. Like the best Intrigue heroines, she's not superwoman, but an ordinary one who shows how strong she is when faced with extraordinary circumstances. I liked how it was Maggie who turns detective and actually does some investigating. Drew might be the former CIA agent, but it felt like Maggie was his perfect equal, the way it should be. She was the kind of woman I could identify with and imagine what I would do in the same circumstances. Both of the characters had hard pasts but never became too self-pitying, even though Drew probably had good reason. For two strong, dynamic characters who you can actually root for while they face down danger and fall in love, "Renegade Heart" can't be beat.

I'm not crazy about the title, since Drew never gets a chance to show he's much of a renegade ("Fugitive Heart" would be more appropriate, but that Intrigue title's already been taken.). Under any title, strong character development, intense scenes, and some big surprises along the way make this a book Wilson's fans won't want to miss.

Summary: The best in the series!
Review: I've loved all the Men of Mystery books, but I think this one is the best. I loved the two characters, Drew and Maggie, and I liked the romance developing as they worked together to solve the mystery. There wasn't a single minute when I wasn't on the edge of my seat wondering what would happen next. This was a real page turner! I can't wait for the next installment.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: WOW! A Real Page Turner!
Review: No wonder this author is a Rita winner! RENEGADE HEART had me shooing away the family so I could keep reading. Packed full of suspense, romance, a to-die-for hero, and a down-to-earth heroine, this story has it all. Drew and Maggie's story is a keeper shelf one for this reader.
