Fired Up by Mary Connealy

My rating: 2 of 5 stars


It seems that there may be more books in this series that I have not read. The story itself can stand by itself but it does seem that a reader would benefit by understanding the other story lines.

I know that Glynna is a prisoner to her circumstances in many ways, but it seems as though she was in denial about her own abilities. How could a woman not know that her cooking stunk? And why on earth would she try and feed others?? I know that women were scarce but honestly I would think that men of that time would have more care for their stomachs.

I liked Dare, and I understood his point that he was not a "real" doctor; but I thought the continual harping and moping about it was overdone. Then suddenly, a newspaper says that he can be considered a Dr. and then he is fine with it.

Aside from all that the story was entertaining. The many theories on who was trying to kill Dare held my interest long enough to finish the book, but honestly there wasn't much that captivated me, or was very memorable. There were also several intimations of things to come in subsequent books.  Still it was a quick read.

I got an ARC from Netgalley in return for an honest review.
