3.0 out of 5 stars My least favorite of the Delaney brothers trilogy., April 11 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: To Tempt a Rogue (Mass Market Paperback)

I so enjoyed Chad's story that I searched high and low to find this one about Ryan. He was the charmer of the 3 brothers who liked women but avoided committment. Can't believe how disappointed I was in this story line. Ryan turns out to be a sleep with anyone, shallow person until the last 2 chapters and it gets repetitive listening to it. However the book talks about his womanizing and fortunately doesn't take through all his adventures> "Kitty" is a naive, from the wrong side of the tracks girl, who never quite catches my heart. I love Connie Mason books. She is a talented writer. This book is mediocre compared to her many triumphs. Fortunately I forced myself to finish it since the last chapter with his brothers coming to his aid was the best part of the book.

5.0 out of 5 stars This trilogy goes out with a bang!, Oct 17 2001

This review is from: To Tempt a Rogue (Mass Market Paperback)

This is the final leg of an exciting journey with the hellraising Delaney brothers! I think this was by far my favorite of the three, which is hard to say because I really liked the first one, "To Love A Stranger". This had all the action and fire I had hoped for in Ryan Delaney, the youngest and the 'rogue' of the three brothers. His match Kathryn, or Kitty as she is nicknamed has become one of my favorite heroines! She is fiesty and fouthmouthed and doesn't take no lip or (excuse the language) crap from anyone, inlcuding Ryan! Or Rogue Ryan as he is called in town...

Ryan is sent on an errand from his dead father's best friend in Arizona to find his long-lost daughter Kathryn Lowry. No one has any idea where she went, she has disapeared without a trace for more than 6 years! Ryan decides to go since his brothers have all settled down and have families. He is bored with the women in Dry Gulch, Montana (his hometown) and embarks on the journey south. He accidentally runs into a notorious bankrobbing gang in Tombstone, Arizona and gets caught up in the fray, soon his finds himself one of the crew! Boy will his brothers kill him when they find out! But what he does discover is a small boy that doesn't look much like a boy, but a woman in boy's clothing in the gang called Kit.

Kit has no time for men or handsome, heartstopping ones named Ryan Delaney. No one had discovered her ruse and she prays they never do. She is only along for the ride until she can save enough money to leave them. Suddenly her world is turned upside down when her protector is shot down in a robbery and Ryan joins the gang. Will he see through her clothing? Does she want him to? Kit is so confused, she has never felt anything for a man before. But when Ryan discovers her for who she is, she is turning tail!

An exciting adventure through the deserts and old west towns! Kit becomes Kitty and Ryan soon realizes that Kitty is also someone else he has been looking for...but how in the world did she becomes an outlaw? What would her father say? I loved the action and fire in this story and thought Kitty was perfect for the loud and obnoxious Ryan! Ryan gets himself into a bad scrape that the brothers must band together to get him out of. We get to meet up with Pierce and Chad from the first two books, "To Love A Stranger" and "To Tame A Renegade". A great trilogy that are definate keepers! Keep up the fantastic work Ms Mason!

2.0 out of 5 stars Needed a better hero, May 3 2000

Anne M. Marble "Anne" (MD, USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: To Tempt a Rogue (Mass Market Paperback)

This book had potential to be a fun, if campy, adventure. Too bad the characters, plot, and dialogue got in the way.

Almost from the start, the hero, Ryan, jumps to conclusions about the heroine. Considering that he sleeps with a prostitute in the first chapter, he has no right to be judgmental or jealous.

For her part, Kitty is smarter and more capable than most "feisty" heroines. However, there must have been something in the water, because before long, she starts jumping to conclusions, too.

The plot hinges on too many coincidencs and used too many cliches. The dialogue is stilted, and peppered with distracting dialogue tags such as "snarled" and "sniffed."

I gave this book a D-

3.0 out of 5 stars Good, but not great
Ditto Mrs Giggles. I liked the book, more or less. I don't know that I would recommend it but I wouldn't try to talk someone out of buying it either.
