Jessica may have settled into her job at the bookstore but one thing she hasn’t done is given up her dream of being a firefighter and paramedic. When she finds out on her 30^th birthday that she is at the end of the timeframe when she can apply she finally decides to do something about it.  Kevin, the cute guy who offers to help her seems to be attracted to her also.  But, she can’t figure him out as he flirts with her then pushes her away.  So while she is attracted to him she is also serious about taking the test and getting into the department, if only her friends would support her and not try to distract her from her goal.

Will she get in?  Will Jessica and Kevin come to terms with what is between them?  How will she be received by Kevin’s co-workers when they find out he is helping train her?

Hot firefighters and a woman finding her dream job, and after a fashion her dream man all at the same time.  What more could you ask for in a romance story?  Ms. McClain does a fantastic job in leading the reader through the ins and outs of training to enter a very demanding world.  I also love the attraction between the two main characters, and how while Kevin pulls away there always seems to be something that keeps them together.  I thoroughly enjoyed Spark of Desire and hope to see another story with the other firefighters in the future.
