Fired Up Review! Also Enter to Win a Kindle Fire HD from Mary Connealy and RSVP for her Live Webcast Event!

About the book: Rollicking Wild West Adventure and Romance from Bestselling Author Mary Connealy!

Dare Riker is a doctor who saves lives, but someone seems determined to end his. It may have something to do with the traitors he dealt with during the Civil War, or it might be related to the recent incident with Flint Greer and the ranch. Whoever the culprit is, he or she seems really fired up, and Dare can't let his guard down for a moment, which is a challenge, since right now he's trying to win the heart of the recently widowed Glynna.

Glynna Greer came west as a mail-order bride and ended up in a bad situation. Now her husband, Flint, is dead, and she's determined to care for her son and daughter on her own. She wants to believe Dare Riker is as decent as he seems, but she's terrified to lock herself into another marriage. She plans to support her small family by opening a diner---never mind that cooking is not her greatest talent. The men in Broken Wheel, Texas, are so desperate for home cooking that they seem willing to overlook dried-out beef and blackened biscuits.

Glynna can't help but notice that danger follows Dare wherever he goes. There's the avalanche. And then the fire. But things really get out of hand when someone plunges a knife from Glynna's diner into Dare's back. Are Flint's cronies still plotting revenge? Is Glynna's son engaged in a misguided attempt to protect his mother? Is a shadowy outsider still enraged over past injustices? And can Dare survive long enough to convince Glynna to take another chance on love?

My review:  I really enjoyed this humorous romance!  The group of friends and ex-soldiers from the Civil War, the Regulators, are wonderful heroes and there wasn't a dull moment.  The women are tough and feisty and give the men a run for their money.  I liked how it was a bit mysterious, since they weren't sure who was trying to kill Dare.  The romance was fun, though I wished I had read book one first since that's when Dare and Glynna met.  We also get introduced to another couple who I hope book three is about.  There were some serious topics dealt with, too, such as abuse and forgiveness, but this is mainly a fun, lighthearted read. I highly recommend it!

I received this book free from Litfuse Publicity in exchange for an honest review.
