Keepin’ it real, keepin’ it short... keepin' it real short....
Vance, the perfect hero… what I loved about him: Everything. What I didn’t love about him: Nothing.
Just sayin’….
And Jules… I loved Jules, her mission, her cause… Sniff and Roam… love, love, love. The way things come together with Darius and Shirleen… fan-fecking-tastic story. And Tex… ride-a-long with Tex as a partner… awesome stuff.
So much to love… romance, passion, sizzle, humor… totally awesome book.
Yep. Just sayin’…

WOW!! This was my FAV Rock Chick book yet!! Loooved Vance and Jules' story! Priceless!
"I want you. I want to taste you. I want to f*ck you. I want to make you come and I want to hear you moan my name when you do so I know that you know it's me who made you come."
“If you ever think of takin’ off, if you ever get scared enough at what I do for a living that you decide you can’t hack it, then you best think again because unless what we have turns shit like everything else in my life, I’m not ever...more

This is my favorite in the fun, ridiculously zany, wild ride Rock Chick series so far. Vance is another yummy, KAmazing alpha hero, and he and Jules were smokin’ hot together!
I liked Jules and found her far less irritating than previous Rock Chicks, Indy, Jet, and Roxie, but she definitely had numerous aggravating moments. Her inner Rottweiler, constant threats about breaking up with Vance, and routinely bragging about being such a ki...more

Vance said to Jules:
"If someone like you, someone as unbelievably beautiful as you, as crazy and sweet as you, filled with attitude and courage with her heart in the right place, in a lot of right places even though her head normally isn't… if someone like you shares her bed with me, then that says something about me."
4.5 stars.

This is just a thought that came to me. I had to write it down.
I can't say I haven't been entertained by reading Kristin Ashley books. I've had the shit entertained out of me...but this is NOT a writer that I would let a young girl read. Kristen Ashley books seems to glorify having a strange man walk into a woman's life and tell her what to do. In a very stalker-like abuser-like way.

Vance has seen it all in his life, but he can honestly say he has never seen a vigilante women yielding a gun chasing, a notorious player and thug and looking down right sexy at the same time. As he watches Jules "Law" spring into action he knows two things: 1. She can't go around shooting a gun in public or her work will be for naught. 2. She is his, he plans to claim her in everyway possible, she just doesn't know it yet.

Rock Chick Renegade is the fourth book in the Rock Chick series by Kristen Ashley. Juliet Lawler (Jules/Law) is a social worker with a mission. Irritate the drug dealers as much as possible and try and keep her "kids" away from them. Vance Crowe has a mission, too. Keep Jules from getting herself killed and get her in his bed as quickly as possible.

And Kristen Ashley does it again!!! Five solid stars!
Book 4 of the Rock Chick series introduces us to Jules - the most kickass member of the Rock Chicks to date, and the perfect match for Vance Crowe. Vance featured a little bit in book 3 so I was excited to read his book, and it didn’t disappoint.
Vance is exceedingly Alpha – to the point where if this man was real, he’d probably be arrested for the things that come out of his mouth (or at least slapped). As he is a KA Alpha though, all it does...more

Okay so I read out of order (1-3-5-4),have commented on my annoyance with the streams of consciousness and reasoning/1st person POV inside the "Rock Chick's" brain, and have mentally salivated on one or more of the Hot Bunch (LUKE!). So, after putzing around, I still maintain the female protagonists make me wanna clock them upside their heads most of time. Yet with Jules, in this book, I felt the urge to do so less than half the time and that's saying something. It means, I've finally connected...more

WOW, Kristen Ashley has done it again. I just can't rave enough about this series. I am having so much fun reading it.

Vance and Jules were so much fun to read about. Jules is a social worker who has lost too many people in her life. When one of her kids from the shelter where she works gets killed she sorta looses her mind and goes on the track of revenge. In the middle of the day, in the middle of the street right outside of Fortnum's she and one of her enemies have somewhat of a shootout. Af...more

We pick up the action in this one minutes after Rock Chick Redemption left off with Vance in hot pursuit of Jules on his Harley after watching her shoot out a drug dealer’s tyres right in front of Fortnums. Jules is a social worker by day and avenging angel vigilante by night. She works at a shelter for homeless kids and is hellbent on revenge after finding one of her boys dead of an OD with a syringe lying by his body.

LOVED THIS BOOK. Loved Vance. Loved Jules. Love, love, LOVED Vance & Jules together. Perfect story was perfect.
Usually with KA books something bugs me enough about the plot or (usually) the heroine that as much happiness as I get in the end, I still have to hold myself to 4 1/2 stars. Not this one. I loved it from beginning to end and all of the steamy awesome parts in between.

I absolutely loved this book. This was my second read of the Rock Chick series. I read the first, and now this (books 2 and 3 didn't seem appealing to me) I absolutely loved this!!!! It was a lot emotionally deeper than the other Kristen Ashley books I read (Rock chick 1, Mystery Man, and Motorcycle Man). This story was awesome. When I thought it started to get a little boring (only one time towards the 75% mark) it pick RIGHT back up. It was so beautiful. I loved Vance he was a kick ass charact...more
Wow! Leaning pretty heavy on the favorite Rock Chick story bandwagon with this one. I laughed, I cried, I swooned, I got hot & bothered, I cried some more...what a great story.

4.5 stars. Love Vance and Jules. Who knew badass Vance could be so sweet. Jules "The Law" is a badass herself. Miss the Kevstar from bks 1 and 2, but there are some great new side characters added and Shirleen is on a roll. The chaos just gets bigger and better. Defintely getting the hint that hotter than hot Luke might want his own Rock Chick. There's a huge laugh about the "virginity discussion" and the video that follows. Adorable story.
Loved this one! I LOVE VANCE! He is the perfect, sexy, sweet alpha hottie! He was one of my favorites from the start of the series and his book DID NOT disappoint! Jules was totally kick-@ss, really funny and had a super big heart which made me love her! It was steamy, funny and heartwarming. The best so far in this series!
I stayed up last night till 2:30 am to finish this book. This morning at 8:00 my eyes are burning, but I am so happy I stayed up to finish this book! I loved Jules and Vance. Jules can kick ass! And Vance has lived through hell and knows a good thing when he sees it. I really loved Jules, I could understand why she acts the way she did. This is another book I laughed, cried and swooned over.
And again I have learned it is possible for a 49 year old woman to swoon! Oh my!!

It starts and ends with a bang!
Jules isnt your average girl. Known as the law, she's champion of street kids and run around in the night for vigilante justice against drug dealers. The book starts off with a gun pointing at Vance and the rest is history. Full of action, rock chick atitude and Vance surprised us by actually being not overly pushy but solid, sometimes sweet and always protective and in spite of that he always leave it to Jules to make the right decision for herself and her 'kids'....more

I must say, Renegade will have to be my favorite thus far in the series. I know some of the fans claim to say that whatever their latest KA read turns out to be their favorite but, this book was ten thousand kinds of awesome (and I didn't feel that way after reading #2 and #3, maybe #1 but that's debatable). Rock Chick may tend to be formulaic but I'm not complaining, and thus far in the series, I noticed subtle changes in the themes. Not drastic changes but I'm liking the direction.
