The author made this one worth the wait. Iris Bolling penned an awesome love story in the mist of mayhem. It was full of emotions: jealousy, love, joy, anger and forgiveness. I laughed every time they said quotes that I have used often.
Jarrett and Paige had a believable love story that was bonded by a spiritual connection. It reminded me of “What God has joined together, let no one separate”…and it was attempted. As much as they wanted to plan their life, it had a way of surprising them with unexpected things that made them happier than they originally planned.
I loved how the author included characters from previous titles and some new ones that I believe we will see more of.
“WELL THERE YOU GO!” A Must Have!

This was a really good read and a twist I didn't expect. Paige, while overall a likable character, was annoying in that she was intentionally obtuse. It's like girl, you're in a competitive field that has a life span of 10 years if you're lucky, you're dating the "it" guy and are from a wealthy family and has not one ounce of personal protection.
She trusts everyone and goes through the world in rose colored glasses. That was annoying AF.

That One Spark
Jarrett found a true gem when Paige entered that plane. A heart so open and true would have to endure much to bloom! This journey is especially heartening!

Paige and Jarrett are DESTINED to be together...but with so many obstacles thrown in their path will they find their HEA or will they allow the DRAMA in their lives to KEEP them from experiencing what could be a BEAUTIFUL relationship...a SWEET and endearing read...but it didn't have the usual SMOOTH Iris Bolling flow IMHO...I was surprised w/the editing issues throughout...something I've not experienced in her other books...but OVERALL it was still a decent read...and I hope we get some follow up stories on a few of the secondary cast of characters.

Magic
This book was filled with enough love to last a life time. No matter how much planning this couple was destined to be together. Grand'Mere and Harold's bickering kept me on the edge of my seat. Iris did a great job with this romantic suspense story that I am anticipating the next release

Hear the Voices
The first two chapters for me were strike outs, but when that grand slam was in in the middle of chapter three. My, my, my, the drama, mystery,intrigue, and love had me going. Every couple needs an angel Jarrett and Paige had three. Loved the fairytale ending. Hopefully there is a story on Victoria and Serigo coming soon, or may be a movie.

OMG!!!! Where do I start
Let me start by saying Iris is one of my favorite authors. Every book she release is a hit and this one was no different. Paige and Jarrett ate one of my favorite couples. This story had love, drama (Suzette and Jolie) , crazy (Lucy), it was funny (Grand'mere), real friends (Ron, Victoria and Sergio) and the rest of the aspiring cat was great. I see a potential story with Ron and the security lady. Can't wait. This is a must read tho. I love it, love it, love it. Would definitely recommend.

This romance novel from Iris Bolling doesn't have the political theme that most of her novels have, but it does stay true to form. Her style is to tell a story from beginning to end, that is well thought out, well written and well executed. And that she does, in a story about a romance that appears to be destined to happen between an unlikely pair.
Follow the story of a professional athlete and a professional ballet dancer from two different worlds, to find out if there is a happy ever after.

Love is in the air!
I loved Paige and Jarrett's story. It was so touching full of romance and just enough suspense. Iris has done it again. I would love to see Victoria and Sergio have a story. Never can tell. Overall a very good read!

True Love
I enjoyed the family dynamics especially with Horase and Paige's grandmother. The magic of love with Jarrett and Paige plus the comedy and drama with their friends was fun and a lovely read.

I loved this book!
This story was amazing. Not many stories have me crying and cheering at the same time, but this one did. Everyone needs a Grand'mere. I just loved her. Thanks so much for such a great read.

I loved this sweet holiday love story. The hero/heroine were both likable and had a wonderful chemistry together. Paige's Grand'Mere took some getting used to. In the end I understood why she did what she did, and it was true Paige and Jarrett's love was because of them.
Once again Ms. Bolling brought the magic.

I enjoyed it but if Paige said one more time: My Grand’mere always says I was going to scream.

Awesome
Just wow. I loved Jarrett and Paige's story. Even through the manipulation and some darkness their love survived. Grand Mere was one in a million.

"One Spark Of Magic" was a excellent read. Iris never disappoints.
Grand'Mere was a force to be reckoned with. She did not play.
Loved the carefree nature of Paige. She saw the good in everyone. Jarrett's love for baseball was excellent.
It was nice to read about Nicolas Brooks and Jason Whitfield.
Even when Paige was in danger she didn't realize it and she still had a no nonsense attitude, believed there was good in everybody.
Loved the back and forth with Paige's Dad and Grand'Mere.
Suzette was a hot mess she used Lacy to and Lacy lost in the end. Will Ron her husband stay or will he leave.
Wouldn't want to tangle with Jolen you just might end of dead.
Loved Victoria and Sergio.
Hopefully we will get a book on Victoria and Sergio, and Faith, Autumn Jarrett's sisters.

It was a nice read fairy tail...ish. At times Paige got on my nerves because everything was so happy go lucky yadda yadda yadda, she just wasn't my type of heroine. I did like Grand' mere loved her story even more, it would make a good book I also loved the funny banter between her and Harold.
Overall a nice sweet romance type of read.

Absolutely Loved It!!!
January 2, 2017
This was a great way to start the year with a book that mad me smile. Paige Cartwright is an old soul. She is so full of light and love. A legacy given to her from her grandmother and Mother is a blessing, She is a dancer living in NY. Her roots are in VA. She is graceful and full of passion.
Her grandmother demanded she take a flight to VA to change her life forever and she did.
Handsome, sexy, Jarrett Bryson is on his flight to see his manager in Va. He is trying to relax and figure out why his negoiatians with his team, based out of NY is not talking to him. His flight is being delayed. The delay is not annoying once he picks up the scent of jasmine and hears the most beautiful voice. The new arrival is seated across from him in 1st class. Once he sees her face he is smitten by her beauty.
Paige apologizes to Jarrett and too is enchanted by the person her father most admires in baseball.
The life changing meeting begins a whirlwind encounter for the two.
Another chance meeting back in NY, seals the fate of these two. However, forces beyond their control begin a plot to destroy them and a fabulous future that "could" be their ' spark of Magic'.
I loved the twists and turns that make you turn each page. Will they be able to overcome hate, jealousy and the malice being aimed at them? Will they be able to overcome an attempt of kill one of them? Someone will die....
Great read Ms. Bolling, hope to hear more about Sergio, Victoria and Ray and the bodyguard....
