Action + Romance = Captivating Read!, November 30, 2009
This review is from: Fallen Rogue (Mass Market Paperback)
FALLEN ROGUE is a captivating romance novel with relatable characters, suspense and a believable conflict. Amy Rench's style is fast paced and action packed, yet funny and romantic.
Harper Kane's life changes the instant her brother is murdered and she is unwillingly caught up in the fallout. She is injected with a mysterious serum that gives her psionic powers and now her own life is on the line. Rome Lucian's job is to kill her, and although he always does his duty, this time he can't bring himself to follow orders. The adventure begins as they search for justice while they aviod getting killed, and along the way fall in love.
Readers will find themselves unable to put down FALLEN ROGUE as Harper and Rome untangle a dangerous web of deception. Harper's plight immediately inspires sympathy and Rome is the sweet version of an alpha male. Their growing feelings for each other despite their opposing goals are charming and sexy.
Everything about this novel captured and held my attention and I highly recommend it to anyone who loves romance, adventure, and just plain fun!

Poorly done, uneven tone., December 13, 2009
This review is from: Fallen Rogue (Mass Market Paperback)
I am disapointed in this book. The "science" in the story was a joke. Kane's brother was a scientist experimenting on plants with a serum to make them stronger, when the serum is injected into humans it gives them psi powers. Am I the only one that finds this odd? Did anyone else take biology? Any type of fiction, wether dealing with elves and middle earth or Vulcans and spaceships needs to be internally consistant and logical. The magic serum is neither.
The next major problem is the Harper/Rome relationship. Harper is devastated over her brothers death, but instead of taking a few days to mourn is happily jumping into Rome's bed at the first opportunity. He also betrays her to evil scientist but is forgiven and in bed with her almost in the same breath.
The entire novels reads like a cheesy Sci-fi movie where plots and characters don't have to make sense so long as there are lots of gunfights and sex scenes.

Bubble Gum Read, June 19, 2010
This review is from: Fallen Rogue (Mass Market Paperback)
The author writes well but has little character development followed by little plot development. This is not a deep sci-fi nor a secret agent thriller. Were it taken further it might have been a great story. This book is aimed at love starved females with it's over the top sex. Like the dvd player you can skim thru these sections and miss nothing. Disappointing.
