Synopsis
Desperate
to keep her teenage daughter from running with the wrong crowd again, Elsie
Anderson makes the painful decision to leave Seattle for good. For her,
solitude is a small price to pay for keeping Sophie out of trouble. Love is the
last thing on Elsie’s mind, especially in a small town like Smithfield,
Virginia.
Alex
Becker is the star of Smithfield's firefighting department. He may be a hero,
but at night he sees a broken man in the mirror. There was a time when he
believed in love, but that all disappeared after he unexpectedly lost his wife
late last year.
They
both need a second chance at love. Will Elsie be able to overcome her fear of
getting another broken heart? Will Alex ever be able to love again?
My Thoughts
Summer Spark is the first in a series focusing on
Elsie and her daughter. In this read they move after Elsie is worry about her
daughter and the crowd she is running with. Elsie moves to a small town hoping
that it’s a better environment for her daughter and for her writing. Elsie is a
single mother who adopted her daughter at a young age and isn’t really looking for
a relationship. She soon meets Alex and suffering the loss of his wife isn’t really
looking for anyone either. They soon meet and of course sparks fly. But both
are scared of letting anyone in, scared that they aren’t really for love but
also scared to lose each other.
This is a perfect quick read that’s cute and I love
the characters in it. I love seeing Elsie and Alex blossoming love story and I can’t
wait to see how the other books in the series play out. There is a cliffhanger
of sorts so it’s not really a standalone book but it’s one I will definitely continue
to read.
