I’m going to do a short review on this book. If you’ve read Jayne Ann Krentz before you know that her stories are very similar, I enjoy it more when she writes under Amanda Quick, her historical romance pseudonym. There is usually a misunderstood and very strong willed man and an equally strong woman with an ‘issue’ that only this particular man can understand/overcome. In that respect, Fired Up follows the same pattern.
If you haven’t read any of the Arcane books before, they are about a paranormal society that has its roots around the 1800s. They catalogue different paranormal abilities and also have a private investigation office (Jones & Jones) that appears in many of the books. Fired Up has some dealings with J&J, but mostly involves a separate side story about the descendant of Nicholas Winters. I really enjoyed that we got to see how Luther and Grace (from Running Hot) are doing and also we get to ‘visit’ with Fallon Jones, one of the most fascinating characters of the society.
Overall, the story was somewhat familiar, but to me, it’s like putting on an old PJ – comforting and soft.
