Taking Fire

Taking Fire - Lindsay McKenna DNF @ 50%

I am so disappointed. I really wanted to like this book and was really looking forward to reading it. I have read several other books by Lindsay McKenna in the past so I have high hopes for this one. I just couldn't get into this story at all.

As the book opened, I had high hopes. Khat was awesome in the opening scenes when she saved Mike. I really liked the scenes in the cave when she was caring for him. Khat proved that she was a strong and competent woman.

I started having problems with the book when Mike suddenly seemed interested in her and even kissed her out of nowhere. This couple had absolutely no spark and the chemistry was nonexistent. The way that they suddenly couldn't stop think about each other seemed odd. The physical scenes in the book felt clinical.

I think that the idea behind the book was great but it just fell flat for me. It just seemed to be missing that spark that makes a book come alive.

I wouldn't recommend this book to others but I would pick up another book by Lindsay McKenna in the future.

I received a copy of this book from Harlequin via Net Galley for the purpose of providing an honest review.
