Sparks of Love

Sparks of Love is a terrific book. Suspense and romance are the two main ingredients I enjoy most in a book . I was pulled immediately into the well written plot. I could not put the book down.

Lynette Cunningham was a flight attendant without a job. She was returning home after a long period of time away to see her father. She had been a suspect in a bank robbery in her small town, Freedom, NC when she was a teenager. Nothing was ever proven and no arrest was ever made, but suspicion seemed to hang in the air whenever she was in town. Now, she had come back because her father had been murdered by an arsonist and she wanted some answers and needed to clean out his stuff and get out of town. She had no intention of staying in a place where she had such unpleasant memories. In truth, they weren't all unpleasant but she hated the gossip of some of the people in town.

Price Fletcher was the young minister in town. He was attracted to Lynette and he wanted to help her find her way back to Christ. She had lost her faith when the bank robbery incident happened and she didn't believe that God really cared about her. Price was determined to show her that she had a God who loved her very much and was very interested in her life. He was also very interested in getting to know Lynette better and hoped to have her in his life for a long time to come.

There were quite a few accidents and mishaps that seemed like too many to just be coincidence or clumsiness. You'll have to read the book to find out if Lynette is able to overcome these challenges in her life.

I enjoyed this book and I liked the fact that it was a clean romance with no descriptive sex scenes or inappropriate language. There was suspense, romance and quite a bit of preaching. I had a hard time connecting emotionally to the characters. I like a book that is a faith-based book but at times it seemed like too much.

I was given an arc copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
