A Single Spark

HO, LIWEN Y.
A SINGLE SPARK

He's a pop singer running from his past. She's a deejay who's given up on men. Little do they know divine intervention has a plan for them.

Former boy band hottie, Aiden Sparks, distanced himself from everything he valued -- faith, family, and fame -- when he lost his girlfriend. A decade later, he's still hiding behind his grief until he accidentally texts a woman who's all too curious about his identity.

Burned by the men in her life, deejay Abby Dearan has chosen to focus on her newfound faith in God and use her radio presence for good. Her plans are thwarted though when a text message -- and the irritating man who sent it -- won't leave her in peace.

Aiden can't forget the woman who reminds him so much of his first love; Abby can't remember the last time a man made her feel so beautiful. To make matters worse, it's impossible to avoid one another when their siblings and friends -- not to mention, divine intervention -- keep pushing them together. Will the sparks igniting between them end up in flames or romance?

My Review:

Squeeee!!! Just discovered a new-to-me favourite author thanks to Carrie at Reading Is My Superpower blog. I love it when trusted reader friends encourage me to branch out and try something new.

I have to admit to not being current at all with indie published books mainly because they are usually only in ebook format or the paperbacks are hard to get or very pricey. But, woohooo, I discovered this one on audible plus it's also available in paperback format on Book Depository (double yay!)  and I am a huge Sparks brothers fan now! 'Cause Aiden has four brothers!!!! Which means four more forays into make-me-tizzy-giddy romances. I can't wait!

Happy sigh -- let me tell you, there's more than one single spark whenever Aiden and Abby get together -- more like a fireworks worth! And the way they meet -- snorty guffaw! Love the way Ho laced humour among the angst. A Single Spark is a snappy, well-paced contemporary romance that still has me grinning.

I listened to the audible version narrated by Lorana Hoopes. Loved her performance -- she definitely captured characters and emotions and made the listen a bibliophile delight.

  2. Oh I love when I am pleasantly surprised by a new-to-me author and book. Especially one that blows me out of the water :-)

    I'm one that doesn't mind branching out to indie published writers because I have found some real gems. I just wished I knew more of them! That's where trusted reader friends come in handy & can make reliable recommendations. Definitely interested in this one.
