About the book:
When a doctor who attracts danger falls for a cook determined to make it on her own, there's going to be trouble in Texas!
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 make a go of it on her own. In a town full of men, Glynna decides she can support her two children by opening a diner--never mind that cooking is not her greatest talent.
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.
Though his doctoring business is booming due to Glynn''s questionable cooking, Dare seems to encounter unexpected dangers wherever he goes. There's the avalanche. And the fire. And then the shadowy figure with a knife. Can Dare survive it all long enough to convince Glynna to take another chance on love?
Why I want to read this book:
I really enjoyed Swept Away (book one) and think I'll like this one even more. Plus, Mary Connealy is one of my favorite authors. :)

I am looking forward to this book as well! Swept Away was one of my first Mary Connealy books that I read and I really enjoyed it so I'm looking forward to reading more of her books :)

I have Swept Away and just got approved for Fired Up from NetGalley and am totally excited! I love Mary Connealy! Great pick! My WOW was for a YA SciFi by Shannon Hale today.
