Synopsis
Everly wasn’t excited over her impending meeting with the enigmatic Prince Sage. Being one of only four women from whom the Prince gets to choose in marriage was never something she valued. Her goal was to politely and elegantly remove herself from a forced wedding due to long standing traditions. Handsome Prince or not, she won’t marry for anything but love.
Once Sage proceeds to the next candidate, Everly finally feels she can move forward with her life. On her own terms. That is, until she receives a mysterious request, asking her to solve a riddle, taking her on a night she’ll never forget.
A fervent adventure ensues, and attraction builds as the excitement of the night unfolds. Sparks fly in more ways than one just as she finds out who’s stealing her heart.
I have to first say that I love when I read Lauren’s work, she never writes in one genre. One book will be hot and steamy and then the next one, sweet and loving. And I love that about Lauren. She writes what comes to her and she does it so well. ok – onto the story at hand.
Sparks Fly is one of Lauren’s more sweet and loving reads. But this story is so much more than that. Not only do I love this story as a romance. But I love the important meaning behind the story – helping others for the greater good. I cried in this book because of the humanitarian efforts mentioned. The selflessness of these characters is inspiring. Yes, they are fictional people but damn that make you want to get up and do something.
Sage is set to be the next King and he must choose his wife by his 25th birthday. There are certain rules an criteria that he must follow in choosing his bride to be. However, for the last few years of his life, he has been hidden away from the limelight and living his life his way. He does not agree with a lot of the traditions that he must follow and his marriage is just another aspect he does not like.
Everly is one of the four women Sage’s father has approved of as a suitable woman to become Sage’s future wife and Queen of Canterbury. However, she unlike the other three, wants nothing to do with marrying the young prince. She wants to follow her dreams and marry a man she loves, not just for the prestige and wealth.
“Nothing is what you think. You have to find the truth in everything. At the end, is where we will begin.”
This quote explains this book perfectly. I love how Lauren played Sage and Everly’s story out. It may be a whirlwind romance, but it’s not short of it’s suspense and turns. And as I said earlier, the selflessness of these two was so appeasing, it just made the story sweeter.
A light, enjoyable and sweet read from Lauren that I would recommend to anyone.
