Sparks Fly by Clare London is an erotic and homoerotic love story.

Nic Gerrard has everything that a man could want; fame, fortune, notoriety, and all the women he could ever need. Why isn’t he happy? Nic earned everything that he has, but the only time he was truly happy was when he was just getting his first business, Sparks, going when he was working with their main IT programmer Aidan. At the same time, Aidan tells himself he is happy with his life, but he has buried his emotions after his lover in college lied to him and his parents basically withdrew from him when they learned his sexual orientation. It was easier to maintain emotional distance to protect himself. When things start going wrong with Sparks, Nic and Aidan begin to work together to try to save the company. The spark between them comes to life causing them to question everything that they ever felt before. Will Nic and Aidan find a way to not only save their company, but find their way together?

Ms. London has created an incredible story with two very compelling characters that come to life for the reader. Nic is a very complex man who appears very superficial, but in reality he keeps his true actions out of the public notice. Aidan, at first, falls for Nic’s public persona, but eventually gets his eyes opened to the truly beautiful person that Nic truly is. Nic has always gotten what he wanted when he wanted it, but he learns that the important things in life are worth the wait. Thanks go to Ms. London for a great read.
