Rogue is the second installment in the Urban Fantasy Shifters series by Rachel Vincent. Once I read the first one in this series I immediately went out and bought the rest. I read the first three in 2 and a half days and loved each one more and more. I found the characters fun and exciting and always refreshing.

Rogue is the second installment in the Urban Fantasy Shifters series by Rachel Vincent. Once I read the first one in this series I immediately went out and bought the rest. I read the first three in 2 and a half days and loved each one more and more. I found the characters fun and exciting and always refreshing. And being a werewolf fan I was open to new suggestions and found werecats exciting and refreshing. I find in some series you can get a bit bored by some of the constant characters but in this series I found it never lacking in character development and personality. As much and I liked book one(Stray), I loved book 2(Rogue). I find each book out does the next, and I am hoping it stays that way!

In ROUGE, which is a follow up to STRAY(book 1) Faythe has finally settled into her new job as an enforcer for her pack. And since things don't always come easy for Faythe she has murdered toms turning up in her territory.. Faythe is new at her new position and feels she has to prove herself to her fellow pack. Only, she feels like her training hasn't prepared her for what she is now facing and knows she has to step up her game. As if a murderer on her conscience isn't enough, Faythe gets a confusing call from her college buddy which may put the blame on her and makes her rethink her actions. Faythe isn't going to let herself be pushed around and she may be in deep trouble but she always goes in kicking and screaming.

ROGUE is fast paced, engaging, and full of the action that her debut novel started off with. There is more romance in this book than the first, but I think it was necessary because it shows how Faythe feels about Marc, and being with the family/pride. If your a fan of Urban Fantasy, Paranormal Romance, Shape shifters and action this is the series for you! I highly recommend it.

Synopsis:
Okay, so cats don't always land on their feet

I know that better than most. Since rejoining the Pride, I've made big decisions and even bigger mistakes: the kind paid for with innocent lives. As the first and only female enforcer, I have plenty to prove to my father, the Pride, and myself. And with murdered toms turning up in our territory, I'm working harder than ever, though I always find the energy for a little after-hours recreation with Marc, my partner both on and off duty.

But not all my mistakes are behind me. We're beginning to suspect that the dead are connected to a rash of missing human women, and that they can all be laid at my feet--two or four, take your pick. And one horrible indiscretion may yet cost me more than I can bear....

A wonderful read with a great mystery that the Pride has to solve. Faythe matures a bit more in each book, which makes her a more likable character. Where Marc came off as a bit overbearing in Stray, I really liked him in this one. He and Faythe want different things from their relationship, and I found myself sympathizing with them both for different reasons. Unlike the first book, which had a clear ending, this one leads straight into the next book, which I had to immediately pick up as soon a ...more
