Review
This is my first Amy Briggs novel, I found her through a
Facebook group of, ironically, male authors.
That being said, this is a standalone within a series so I figured I
could get away with reading it without having read the first novel. Kind of, there were definitely some things
discussed that were continuing on from the last novel that had me feeling kind
of clueless but they weren’t major plot points so I wasn’t completely lost in
the woods.
Matt Cavanaugh is a firefighter and married to the
job. But that doesn’t mean he doesn’t
occasionally…sample the goods. Isabel
Cruise is a local detective and has worked hard to get where she is. After lackluster performances in the bedroom
from men, she’s about giving up on finding someone who can satisfy her. She met the firefighters of District 23
during the events of Fired Up and as
events begin to unfold in Fully Involved
not only the fires are heating up. And after a one night stand, so
are her and Matt.
At first, the story fell flat for me. The first two chapters were all internal
dialogue and I couldn’t seem to fully engage.
At about 7% in I put the book down for a bit and then came back to it
later. After more characters got
involved and there was more action, I was able to get more engaged and the pace
picked up and flowed better. And I found
myself really enjoying the story. I
loved that Isabel was such a strong female lead. She’s passionate about what she does and she
doesn’t hold back. There’s good mystery
and suspense woven into the hot romance.
I thought I knew what was going on and I ended up wrong. I love it when that happens.
Overall a good read, I’ll probably pick up Fired Up eventually and I’ll look
forward to reading more of her books in the future. -Peace and Love, Buxom J
