When Sparks Fly by Helena Hunting

A Book Review πŸ“• πŸ“š πŸ“–

Description

Avery Spark is living her best life. Between her friends, her sisters, and Spark House, the event hotel her family owns, she doesn’t have much time for anything else, especially relationships. She’d rather hang out with her best friend and roommate, Declan McCormick, than deal with the dating scene. But everything changes when she is in a car accident and needs someone to care for her as she heals.

Declan avoids relationships, giving him a playboy reputation that he lives up to when he puts a one-night stand ahead of a promise he made to Avery. While he may not have been the one driving the car, he feels responsible for Avery’s injuries and is determined to make it up to her by stepping into the role of caretaker.

Little did they know that the more time they spend in compromising positions, the attraction they’ve been refusing to acknowledge becomes impossible to ignore. When they finally give in to the spark between them, neither is prepared for the consequences. Their love is fragile and all it will take is a blow from the past to shatter it all.

The Review:

Overall Rating: 2 out of 5 Stars.

Storyline: πŸ“–πŸ“–

Character Development: 🌎🌎

Steam: πŸ”₯

It was good and then it went … πŸ€”. The story is a slow burn, bestfriends to lover trope, and has a dual POV. The chemistry between the two lead characters was okay. However, the story was a little bit predictive, so I ended up skimming the pages. I’m a big fan of Helena Hunting, but to be honest I didn’t enjoy reading this book. It felt like it was a chore to read it. I’m giving it 2 stars for being well written.

Thank you to Netgalley, St. Martin’s Press and the Author for the for sending me an arc in exchange for an honest review.
