Sparks Will Fly by Mycah Edwards

If there’s one thing that can’t be denied, it’s Lovie Lucas’s love for the community center she manages. The same applies to the tension between her and Romani Rogue, a real estate investor she assumes is determined to tear down the thing that gave her a sense of purpose in life and affirmed her worth. Lovie is convinced his goal is to rip apart the relationships she’s spent years fostering for a profit, when his mission is to revitalize the center and make it better for the community that relies on it.

Despite the curses and sparks that fly at their initial encounter, Romani is intrigued by Lovie’s boldness while she struggles to remember if she’s fighting to keep the community center open or against the chemistry that simmers between them. Her every instinct tells her to run far away, but Romani’s instinct is telling him something different, because all he sees is a woman worth fighting for.

Lovie and Romani both have trauma from their past that must be confronted before the sparks between them can become a raging wildfire. Trust, support, and comfort are at the core of their connection, showing that sometimes the most explosive relationships can be sustainable when they’re built on understanding and belief in each other, even when the world doesn’t.
