Spark by Aleatha Romig Release Blitz

“From a little spark may burst a flame.” ~ Dante Alighieri

A simple ember to dried kindling can ignite a raging fire.

I’ve made my mark and proven my loyalty to a man, a city, a way of life. That loyalty has provided me with all the spoils of success. Until now that hasn’t included a woman at my side.

What is it about this unobtainable beauty that brings my untapped desire to life?

Cracking open the stone and striking the flint is my doing. What comes to follow is hers.

With something so intense will this spark lead to a blazing inferno? Will we make it out of the ashes before everything I hold dear is lost?

M/F romance

Aleatha Romig is an amazing writer. This is a spin-off book from the previous series, and I would highly recommend reading that one first, as there are characters from that series in this one too.

Patrick had nothing when he was younger. Now, older, wiser, and somewhat more ruthless, he has more money than he knows what to do with and respect from people all over his city. He has never forgotten where he came from and while he has no desire to go back there, it shaped him in a profound way. Patrick knows that his job is to protect his boss, but when his past comes back to smack him in the face, he's not sure if he can do that.

Maddie's beginning was about survival. She learned early on that you can only count on yourself. Smart, savvy, and beautiful, Maddie also learned the art of never showing her emotions. When she finds herself running from the authorities, she didn't expect to be saved. But with that salvation also comes a steep price.

This is the first book in the series and it will suck you right in. You'll want to turn the pages faster than ever and when you see where the story might be taking you, you'll curse and scream when you get to the end. I cannot wait to see what happens next, because I know that Romig will continue to lead us through the twists and turns of the story like only a Romig story can.

I could not wait for this book to hit my Kindle. I started reading it this morning and could not put it down. And now I have finished it and have to wait for the next one to come out.

Patrick and Maddie were kids on the streets, taking care of each other until one day she disappeared. Now, 17 years later, she is back and Patrick can't believe his eyes. Is she real or is he seeing a ghost?

As we go back to the world of Sparrows, we learn more about Patrick and his past. His love for Maddie hasn't faded but his anger has gotten harder.

Maddie is trapped in a world that only gets worse when she disappoints the boss. She can't win if she loses. So when she shows up at a poker tournament in Chicago, she can't believe her eyes when Patrick shows up in front of her.

Can Patrick convince her to stay and he protect her? Will she stay with him? Can they move on from the pain of the past?

I love this story but watch out for that holy hell cliffhanger. I was so into reading, I didn't realize I was at the end until the cliffhanger hit me square in the face. I NEED BOOK TWO NOW!!!!

I don't know where to start with this review!

This book brought me back to the olden days of Aleatha Romig's writing.

The characters in the Web of Desire series were initially introduced in the Web of Sin series. I think you could start this series on its own, but it would be much more rewarding if read in original published order.

I absolutely loved Patrick then, and am completely enthralled with him now. He's been an integral member in the Sparrow operation, we know of his past in reference to profession, but do we know his PAST? I love the layers that are uncovered as this story is told.

This story hits the ground running from page one. We are witnessing a high stakes poker tournament, we are introduced to some big wig players, and we are learning about one player in particular. She is familiar to the city of Chicago, and to Patrick in particular. The question is, why is she here?

This story grabbed me from the beginning, kept my head spinning throughout, and ended way too quickly. The chemistry between Patrick and Madeline is explosive, and I need more – much, much more.
