This is a very sexy story that has Lily, a survivor of violence, and Levi, the undercover US Marshall sent to protect her. He's undercover because Lily has rejected all assistance from the marshals when her attacker escapes, so he's forced to keep who he really is a secret. Lily just wants her life back and to recapture the woman she was before the attack.. Sparks quickly fly when Levi and Lily meet, but they're both keeping secrets that can threaten the foundation of the tenuous relationship they're beginning.

I loved the story and was totally engaged in it. The characters were compelling and the author made me care about them and feel invested in their getting a HEA ending. However, for me, the explicit sex was over the top and consumed far more pages than you would expect in a novel. It really, to me, took away from what would otherwise be a great book. So, for the story itself, 5 stars, but 3 stars for the redundant explicitness, leaving an overall rating of 4 stars.

Her Renegade Cowboy by L. Leigh, published by St. Martin's Press, is book three in the Moving Viol. Series. Every book is about another couple and can be read as a stand-alone.
Lily Donovan is a young woman who keeps secrets close to her.
Levi Roberts works at ranchhand at the family ranch, but he too has his secrtes. He's more than a ranchhand.
MRC is an action packed, fast paced, drama filled read that had me insuspense till the last page. A great read, 4,5 stars.
