When Sparks Fly
by Hunting, Helena
Avery Spark is determined to keep her family business afloat while navigating the chaotic, high-pressure world of event planning. When she is forced to collaborate with Declan Murphy, a man who is the polar opposite of her organized, sunny disposition, the office becomes a battleground of biting wit and simmering tension. This book is a masterclass in the enemies-to-lovers trope, leaning heavily into the friction of two people who cannot stand each other—until they realize they are the only ones who truly get one another. The pacing is snappy and the dialogue moves at a breakneck speed, making for a reading experience that feels like a caffeinated afternoon. It is perfect for readers who enjoy a slow-burn romance anchored by genuine humor and the satisfying messiness of workplace dynamics.
