Fired Up

"Fired Up Trouble In Texas" (book 2) by Mary Connealy was a fun read. We get to know Dare Riker, a "doctor" in the town where Glynna Greer now lives. Glynna is a twice-widowed mother of two children. She has faced some extreme hardships in her life.

Glynna decides to open up a diner so that she is able to support her and her children. The first day her diner opened, it was discovered that Glynna was a terrible cook! The men in town would still come to eat at the diner though because they loved just getting a view of the beautiful Glynna in this limited of women town.

Dare feels a pull toward Glynna and feels the need to help and protect her. Dare is dealing with his own insecurities as a doctor. He keeps saying that he is going to quit and become a rancher, but it seems that every time a doctor is needed, Dare runs to help. He cannot help himself.

I found this read to be light and easy, yet interesting. There was someone out to kill Dare and the author kept me guessing as to who it was. This was one of those books where I was disappointed it was over!

I received this book complimentary from Bethany House. This review is my own and I have not been paid for this review.

I Am His

I Am His is advertised as "An 8-Week Bible Study for Today's Woman" and "Experiencing the Comfort of Abba's Love." I was hesitant as I began this study. However, after the first chapter, I was hooked. Rita J. Platt has such a tender way of pulling you close to her and helping you feel the love of our Redeemer. I appreciate her sincerity and humbleness that comes forth from the pages of her book. I believe that many women would choose to complete this study in less than 8 weeks. It is certainly very do-able. However, it is also perfect for very busy women who want to study the word, but struggle to find the time to do so. I am going to go through this study again to keep myself reminded of Abba's personal love for me.

A Cowboy's Touch

I couldn't book this book down! "A Cowboy's Touch" by Denise Hunter is a must read. Abigail Jones has been ordered some down-time by her doctor. She goes to Montana to "visit" her great-Aunt Lucy. The visit was not just for some R&R, but for Abigail to also check on her Aunt Lucy.

Maddy, a 10 year old little girl, comes into Abigail's life very soon after Abigail's arrival in Montana. This little girl is so precious. She and Abigail form a special bond. Maddy's father has been through some very hard and painful times. Abigail breaks through his barriers and allows him to feel again.

"A Cowboy's Touch" is your typical Christian Romance book. It brought me enjoyment reading it. I read it within a 24 hour period.

I was sent this complimentary book by BookSneeze and have not been paid to provide this review.
