Review: When Sparks Fly by Jo McNally

When Sparks Fly by Jo McNally is the fifth and concluding book in A Rendezvous Falls series. Being this was my introduction to the series, I wish I had stumbled upon it earlier to follow through all the books. Based on what I read, this could be read as a standalone but I recommend reading through it's entirety for continuity of the people in this town. The ones is this book were so much fun that it has piqued my curiosity to what I have missed so far.

Zoey Hartford has so much on her plate right now. She has a business, just got divorced and has a teenager daughter who is trying to find her place in the world. She is a likable character that you really want to see get her hea. She couldn't do it without her best friend Mike McKinnon, who by the way, every gal should have. He is loyal, funny and is always there when she needs him. They've known each other forever and never would let anything happen to each other.

In a moment of impulse and subconscious desire, their friendship goes to the point of no return and it leaves them with a dilemma. This undeniable spark that is shining brightly in their hearts is being dimmed by the fear of a mother's protection. If Zoey can get past these obstacles, she could see that the one thing that was meant to be in her life is right in front of her.

The book overall I found to be a nice read. I love the best friends to lovers trope because you know you are going to get a story that goes deep and makes you feel something as we do for Zoey and Mike. Just as enjoyable were the family and friends that brought many laugh out loud moments. One of my favorite moments is getting to see characters of a mature love. You are never too old to be in love. Vicki and Gordon made me laugh with their exploration of their blooming relationship.

There is an added bonus to the book, a novella Lost In Love. If you have followed the series then you will enjoy this one. If you haven't, you should dive into this cute town and experience Rendezvous Falls.
