Book Overview
The Woman For the sake of her unborn child, Callie Sloane is willing to endure the hardships of this wild Western land--but not her attraction to an untamed half-Cherokee renegade. She lost everything to love once before, and she's not making that mistake twice. While outlaw Nick Smith may be the most handsome man she's ever seen, he's also the most dangerous. The Renegade Nick watches in shock as a determined woman rides out of the dust clouds to plant her flag on his ancestral lands in the Great Oklahoma Land Run. The hardened loner vows not to help this stubborn female survive, but finds himself drawn time and again to protect her. And soon Nick has to protect himself from his own desire . . . for the innocent enchantress tempts him beyond anything he's ever known.

Sultry Western
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
In The Renegades (Nick), Genell Dellin creates the typical woman trying to resist man who is trying to resist the woman conflict. Do they succomb to passion in the heat of the 1890's Cherokee Strip? Well, what do YOU think! This book is a good read, one that often puts a smirk on your face because of Dellin's use of humor and imagery. Characters are believable and likeable, but probably won't be your all-time favorites. The hero, Nick, has great pecs, lots of bronzed, warm skin and has a quirky since of humor. The heroine, Callie, is a luscious blond who is pregnant with someone else's baby, and she is fighting Nick over a claim in a land lottery. The book is sexy, yet not really graphic. It rates about a 6 on the Steam scale (one being cool and 10 being hot, hot, hot).
A western romance that feels real
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
In 1893, the Feds open up the Cherokee Strip to a land rush. One of the participants, the pregnant Callie Sloan feels this is her last opportunity to establish a home for herself and her unborn child. Another partaker, half-breed Nick Smith wants to preserve as much of his ancestral lands as possible.To Nick's shock and chagrin, the intrepid Callie places her flag right smack on land he expected to claim. Not wanting any part of what he perceives to be female trouble, a reluctant Nick claims the adjoining plot. They do not make good neighbors as they squabble, fuss, and fight until Nick and Callie realize that not only do they love one another, but need each other to survive.The second novel in Genell Dellin's rousing Renegade trilogy is a superb battle of the sexes between two passionate, sensual, yet intrepid characters. The story line will entertain western romance fans as it reveals insight into a bygone era through the somewhat desperate eyes of its delightful lead protagonists. Fans will gain much joy from Nick's story and those who have not read Cole's tale (the first book) will want to immediately do so.Harriet Klausner
