Every attempt she&#8217;d made to date him or spend more time with him has been shot down by Dylan.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit;\">Dylan loves Talia as much as she loves him, but his painful past won&#8217;t let him surrender to that love. Fear of physically hurting her keeps him alone and aching for a life with her&#8230;a life he knows he cannot have.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: inherit;\">A night of passion convinces Talia she and Dylan are <\/span><\/span>perfect together. Dylan admits his love to Talia, but tells her it doesn&#8217;t matter since they can never be together.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: inherit;\">Talia hatches a plan to convince Dylan she knows he would never hurt her. It might backfire, but she believes it&#8217;s worth the risk to be with the man she loves.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">* * *<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Purchase\u00a0Ebook:<\/em><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B0FHWMMM1B\">Kindle<\/a>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.barnesandnoble.com\/w\/spark-lynn-lafleur\/1147844360;jsessionid=FBD85D9485BD2B32032B697638CF4CCA.prodny_store02-atgap13?ean=2940181776180\">Nook<\/a>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kobo.com\/us\/en\/ebook\/spark-199\">Kobo<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/books.apple.com\/us\/book\/spark\/id6748754191\">iBooks<\/a> \u00a0 \u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.smashwords.com\/books\/view\/1812270\">Smashwords<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u00a0* * *<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Excerpt:<\/em><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit;\">Silence, then she heard a door open and close. After that, lights began to go out over her head. She&#8217;d be completely in the dark soon if she didn&#8217;t let Dylan know she was here.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit;\">She scooted to the side of the truck and looked down. Dylan stood next to the set of light switches by the entrance to the kitchen. The remaining light shone on his head, highlighting his dark hair.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit;\"><em>Damn, you are one fine looking man.<\/em> &#8220;Pssst.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit;\">He froze, looked around him. &#8220;Is someone here?&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit;\">&#8220;Pssst!&#8221; She waved one hand to draw his attention. &#8220;Up here.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit;\">His gaze swung her way. &#8220;Talia? What the hell are you doing up there?&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit;\">&#8220;I was sleeping until you moved the truck.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit;\">&#8220;You were <em>sleeping<\/em>?&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit;\">&#8220;Yeah.

She should drink more often. Being plastered made her funny.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit;\">Shaking his head, Dylan walked over to the ladder truck. &#8220;I think you&#8217;d better come down and let me take you home.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit;\">&#8220;Nope.

Toss me a pillow and blankey and I&#8217;ll be all co-cozy.&#8221; She leaned a bit farther over the edge. The liquor she&#8217;d consumed gave her the courage to say exactly what she wanted to say. &#8220;I&#8217;d be even cozier with you up here with me under that blankey.&#8221;<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Spark Book 5 of Lanville Firefighters Series Publisher: Lynn LaFleur Release Date: July 17, 2025 (ebook) Genre: Contemporary MF Length: Novella Cover Design by: Lynn LaFleur Talia King has loved Dylan Westfield ever since the day she met him two <span class=\"excerpt-dots\">&hellip;<\/span> <a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/lynnlafleur.com\/home\/spark\/\"><span class=\"more-msg\">Continue reading &rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-2216","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/lynnlafleur.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2216","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/lynnlafleur.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/lynnlafleur.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lynnlafleur.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lynnlafleur.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2216"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/lynnlafleur.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2216\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2228,"href":"https:\/\/lynnlafleur.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2216\/revisions\/2228"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/lynnlafleur.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2216"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
