This book is a winner, pure and simple. It warmed my heart, I laughed, sniffled and got mad at the bad guy and I experienced the warm and fuzzies at the end. It even had me wanting to bite my nails because of some of the suspense from the nasty villain. All Fired Up has it all and Ms. Foster has written a book for my keeper shelf. I still can’t believe I read this in one day.
The sultry, scrappy beginning quickly morphed into a jump-off point that started the ball rolling. Starting with Charlotte meeting Mitch, then his brothers showing up all at once, all of Mitch’s carefully made plans went up in smoke. Nothing in Mitch’s life would ever be the same again and after reading this novel, I’m so happy it’s not. Life is about to hand the hero everything he thought he wanted and more.
But first, he had to overcome so many obstacles; it was mind boggling because he was clueless about many facets of family life. His hard upbringing made sure he had no knowledge of what a loving family was really like. Everything that happens to the hero is a page turner. The best thing was Charlotte.
The heroine was perfect. I mean, Ms. Foster wrote Charlotte as the perfect counterpoint to Mitch. She’s not without her own issues but overall she was a delight. How she interacted with the hero made me feel good. There were so many times I wanted to hug her because she said or did something that had such a profound effect on Mitch, in a good way, that I couldn’t help but love her too. All Fired Up has its super sweet moments, but I guarantee no toothaches are in store for readers, just a great experience of two people falling in love.
I have to mention his brothers, his father, and his sort of step-mom, Ros. Then there are his brother’s wives. I missed reading the two books that gave both Brodie and Jack their HEA’s but I didn’t feel lost. This novel is definitely a standalone, but after meeting Ronnie I realized that I have to read them. Their backstories, hinted at in this book, are too intriguing to ignore. That’s one of the best things about Ms. Foster’s writing – her stories draw me in, her characters are usually so well rounded that I feel like I’d want to live in their communities and hang out. The love, support and family shenanigans give me a genuine sense of being included as I journey with the characters to their happy ever after.
There is so much more I could share with you, like just how effectively nasty the bad guys were written, how steamy yet loving Mitch and Charlotte’s relationship could be, the humor, the dogs….oh yes! The dogs! Talk about great secondary personalities enhancing a story. Brute broke my heart then made me cheer. Best puppy happy ever after.
This is an exceptional read and All Fired Up should not be missed. It’s easily become one of my favorite stories written by Ms. Foster. Consider me a very satisfied reader.
