Wildfire In His Arms (Callahan-Warren, #2)

This review was originally posted on Cocktails and Books
Wildfire in His Arms is a fun historical western romance with a twist. Degan Grant is a gunfighter/peacekeeper doing a favor for a U.S. Marshall friend when he apprehends Maxine “Max” Dawson. It doesn’t take long for him to figure out that the young boy he is dealing with is actually a young lady.
Their adventures that follow include escape attempts, her saving his life, determined ex finances, crooked home town sheriffs, and a very dishonest mayor with an agenda. After a bit of a slow start, this book ended up being enjoyable. Degan and Max are both great characters and their interactions together range from aggravating to sweet to funny to passionate.
I loved how the romance aspect of the story was an undercurrent to their adventures, you really don’t notice it too much at first. But, now that I have finished the book, it’s easy to look back and see some of the small things that Degan did to show his growing feelings for Max. The changes for Max weren’t as subtle, but they were still fun to see.
Quirky secondary characters and the adventure aspects of the plot made this book for me. If you enjoy an adventure/romance set in the Old West with an unusual heroine, then this would be a great one to try.
