Review by H, BestSellers & BestStellars of RomanceLindsey Gray created a charming and heart-warming novella about second chance love with Fireworks. This quick read will make you smile and feel happy the whole way through. I absolutely fell in love with Sam and Sophie and was cheering for them from the very start!"I won't be sixteen forever, you know. The five year difference won't mean a thing when I'm twenty." ~SophieSophie and Sam have deep feelings for one another but their love is impossible due to a five year age difference. Sam's mother is especially against their relationship and threatens him if he continues to pursue Sophie. Sam decides to stick with his mother's plan and heads off to school in Boston, never speaking to Sophie again.Ten years later, Sam finds himself still intimidated by his mother and haunted by "what-if". When he runs into Sophie working at the same hospital as him, all his previous feelings come flooding back instantly. Sophie is immediately reminded of her love for Sam when they are reunited but due to a terrible relationship experience with Josh she feels unable to try again."It's time to get back on the horse, so to speak. I'm sure that cowboy wouldn't mind a ride."With a bit of a twist, Sam and Sophie find themselves pretending to be in long-term relationship. Both want more than the ruse but are hesitant to move forward with their feelings. These two are a perfect pair and deserve to be happy together. Hopefully the past isn't strong enough to keep them apart..."You have to know I'll never be able to tell you how sorry I am for all the years we spent apart. I promise, I will make it up to you." ~SamSophie and Sam are great and their story was fabulous. Novellas are wonderful to devour between longer novels and this one is highly recommended! I loved the third person point of view and being able to know what Sam and Sophie were thinking throughout. I enjoyed the way this novel was written and was impressed with the overall quality. I will be adding Lindsey's other novels to my TBR list.Buy your copy of Fireworks today!4.5 Diamond rating
