Welcome to book 1 of the DreamMakers series. A red-hot collaboration from New York Times and USA Today bestselling authors VIVIAN AREND and ELLE KENNEDY.

He’s ready to lead the way

As the owner of DreamMakers Inc., Parker Wilson takes the skills he learned as a Ranger to help men win in the love department, using every resource available to plan the perfect date. But when a routine recon turns into an unexpected night of fiery passion, Parker’s mission becomes personal—and he won’t give up until Lynn Davidson is all his.

She’s more than willing to follow

Lynn is a goner from the moment she lays eyes on the delectable Parker. She’s tired of sticking to the straight and narrow. It’s time to walk on the wild side, and what better way than in the arms of the most irresistible man she’s ever met? But when their red-hot affair is threatened, it’ll take a team effort to make their dreams come true.

5.0 out of 5 stars Oh my - I Loved All Fired Up
Reviewed in the United States on April 21, 2014

This title popped up on one of the many sites I follow, and upon seeing Elle Kennedy, I clicked. I read the blurb(don't know why I bothered)and one-clicked this. I started reading it, and didn't put it down except to briefly go into work(thought about All Fired Up the whole time) until I was finished.

The premise is hysterical. Three former Army Rangers have formed an event planning company that focuses primarily on men trying to impress their ladies with a dream date. The boys (Dean, Jack and Parker, our hero) have a unique approach to their date planning. They put an Army spin on it. They do recon, surveillance, etc. Didi, their admin, keeps them on the straight and narrow by making them recite "the rules" each time they go undercover. The guys take service to a whole 'nother level.

Our intrepid planners are also quite the ladies men. Until the man Lynn is dating tries to hire the guys to set up a date, and Parker does recon and ends up not knowing what hit him. Lynn knocks Parker completely on his behind, yet she is the client's date...moral dilemma.

Lynn dumps the client, and she and Parker end up meeting up...and things happen...with Dean (! HAWT), then Lynn and Parker start dating. Oh, my word, these two are so good together. Parker makes Lynn feel confident and secure, allowing her to really explore her sensual side. Lynn helps Parker relax a little, and watching him fall so helplessly for her was a real treat. There is nothing I love more than a hero who is undone by his shero, and Parker is completely undone, and happy about it.

The secondary characters in All Fired Up were marvelous. From Lynn's bff, Suz, to Dean and Jack...I am so excited for their stories.

I am a lonnngggg time fan of Elle Kennedy's work, and All Fired Up encompassed all the things I enjoy about her writing. Realistic, occasionally bumbling characters who are so much fun to get to know. Her writing style is warm and rich and steaming hot! Imminently readable. I have not read any of Ms. Arend's work prior to All Fired Up, but will be checking out her titles.

Bottom line - I loved this! So much! Parker and Lynn were sweet, and hawt, and funny...Oh, I just loved All Fired Up! Time and money extremely well spent! Highly recommend!

"All Fired Up" by Vivian Arend and Elle Kennedy is a delightful departure from the typical retired military narratives, diving into the unexpected world of dream date consultants. Set against the backdrop of a unique matchmaking business run by ex-Army Rangers, this book delivers a perfect blend of romance, humor, and steamy encounters that kept me captivated from the first page.

What initially drew me in was the refreshing premise of rugged, alpha males using their skills for a different kind of mission: planning unforgettable romantic experiences. The chemistry between the characters, particularly Parker and Lynn, crackles with intensity, leading to some sizzling moments that had me eagerly turning the pages.

I appreciated how the authors handled the romantic tension and the inevitable obstacles that arise, showcasing mature communication and genuine emotions. Despite the unconventional circumstances, the romance between Parker and Lynn felt authentic and heartwarming, making it easy to root for their happily ever after.

One aspect that stood out to me was the well-developed cast of characters, each with their own quirks and charm. From the camaraderie between the DreamMakers crew to the strong bond between Lynn and her friend Suz, every interaction felt genuine and relatable.

"All Fired Up" is a testament to the talent of both Vivian Arend and Elle Kennedy, delivering a captivating story that is equal parts entertaining and romantic. I found myself completely immersed in the world of DreamMakers and eagerly anticipate the next installment in the series.

3.0 out of 5 stars Playboy Ranger dates the client
Reviewed in the United States on September 9, 2020
Verified Purchase
I'd rate this 3.5 stars as it was a fresh idea; an unbelievable one, but I was liked that the authors took a risk none the less. Parker and his two best friends and former Rangers have left the Army and set up their own company, DreamMakers. Basically, they help unromantic and clueless men set up perfect romantic dates, etc. for their significant others.. They're alpha men who are comfortable with romance while also being playboys themselves. Sounds over the top? That's probably because it is but as I said above, I appreciated that the authors took a different spin on a romance. While setting up a perfect proposal date for a douchebag of a client, Phil, Parker meets Lynn, the client's kind-of girlfriend. I say kind of because they only seemed to be casually dating so a possible proposal was weird. As Phil knows next to nothing about Lynn, the DreamMakers team arrange their own bit of recon to learn her likes and dislikes. Parker and Lynn are attracted to each other and when the latter finds out that her occasional partner is sleeping around, she throws caution to the wind and hooks up with Parker...and one of his partners. I'm throwing this out there because although it read well, I know it won't be for everyone.

The book is pretty predictable with Parker keeping his role in how he met Lynn a secret until she gets to know him. Some of the chapters were told from various other characters' points of view which I found really strange because their bits didn't really have that much to do with the overall story so while they added a different perspective and weren't a negative, I did find it confusing that this was done. It was also pretty clear that the other partners were being set up for their own books in this series. That being said, the secondary characters were solid and I really liked the relationship between Lynn and her best friend Suz even though the authors made her the cliche of the sexually active and out there bff.

There was a bit of humour throughout the book due to good dialogue. A stand out quote: "Holy moly, if I were a pioneer woman I would have washed my clothes on those abs, and I might not even have taken them off first." There's a couple of steamy scenes (including the previously mentioned threesome) and a little bit of jealousy and possessiveness from Parker. Just on this note, the authors make a point of randomly adding in that even though Lynn had been with Phil for months, they hadn't actually slept together. This is total bs because it was emphasised that Parker was a playboy that slept with anything that moved, but hey, it's not okay for girls to be sexual so we better make sure we add in there that even though Lynn and Phil had dated for a considerable amount of time, she's not that kind of girl. Blech. That is outdated, double standard trash that I find borderline demeaning to women.

The story line with Lynn being in a relationship with Phil didn't really make sense, nor did the twist the story took. It came from nowhere, was added to create drama and a bit of angst, allowing Parker to use his military skills and gave the perpetrator an absolutely ridiculous motive that added little to the story. Oh, and this also included Lynn being an upstanding, fine woman of high morals. Blech again. And the resolution to this? Ridiculous again. I won't spoil it here but basically after there being a big drama, they get over it and the antagonist is let off.

Three soldiers getting together to set up romantic dates for a living was a cute concept and if you're after an easy, light read and not fussed on it being particularly realistic, you should enjoy this. The book definitely relies heavily on cliches but if you can get past this, it was entertaining.

Ich verstehe gar nicht warum die Bewertungen im Durchschnitt so negativ ausfallen. Die Geschichte ist rund und in sich stimmig. Der Schreibstil ist flüssig und die Charaktere, wenn auch nicht überragend, aber gut genug ausgearbeitet, um interessant zu sein. Ich hbe es gern gelesen und wurde gut unterhalten.
