4 Star Review of Stars & Sparks (Starlight Bay #7) by Kara Kendrick
Kara Kendrick is a new author to me and I am surprised I have not read her before. This was an entertaining read that ticked a lot of boxes for me. The only thing is that I would have liked this one to be a little longer so that I could have gotten more background on the characters, however having said that I was hooked on singled dad Grant and Lana’s story.

4.5 Stars for Stars & Sparks Forever (Starlight Bay #7)
This is the first book I have read by this author but it certainly won’t be the last because I need more from the residents of Starlight Bay and that means as soon as time permits I will be checking out the previous books in the series. This is a quick read and honestly I really wanted more from Grant, Lana and Hudson but that being said this was a great read and if you love small towns and single dads are your jam look no further than Stars ...more

This was a quick and easy novella to read! In fact I wished it was longer so that we could really flesh out those back stories because both Grant and Lana had such interesting backgrounds.
I loved Lana, because at the end of the day she was just a nice girl, and super helpful, even though her internal monologue really made her seem younger than she was supposed to be.
In general I love a good single parent trope, and this one didn't disappoint. Hudson was adorable, and I loved how they also show ...more

Stars & Sparks Forever by Kara Kendrick is a small-town romance. It's the seventh book from the Starlight Bay series.
This one is about a single dad, Grant Thomas, and his son's swim teacher, Lana Jones. The romantic aspect was like love at first sight.cIt was super cute and kind of hot. The plot is simple but on the short side. I would have loved it if it was longer and it had a bettercbuild-up. Nevertheless, it's a really nice story with great characters that are realistic and kind. My favorite ...more

This book was such a great read! Grant is a single dad, and a new divorce attorney in Starlight Bay. Lana is his son’s new swimming teacher. There is a definite attraction right away between these two, but between Grant’s job and his ex’s abandonment, Grant doesn’t make time for relationships. I loved the journey these two take and the steam that builds up between them. Kara really gets all the feels into a quick read. Check out this book of any of her books today! You will be glad that you did!

This one had me sold on single dad romance. This was a fast read, but a very enjoyable one. Little Hudson was such a cutie. He's going to steal your heart when you read this one. Lana and Grant have great chemistry. Grant is gun shy when it comes to relationships and he's put it out of his mind, but once he meets his son's swimming teacher all bets are off. There is instant attraction. One of my favorite scenes is the festival for the fourth. It's sweet and romantic at the same time. It made my

Another fab addition to The Starlight Bay, Man Of The Month series! Absolutely loved Grant, Hudson & Lana. Such a sweet story for these three. I always enjoy Kara’s writing.

I enjoyed this story, although I wish a few more issues with side characters were resolved in this book rather than left hanging.
I believe this is a new to me author and was not disappointed by this. I enjoy single father stories as well as age gaps (not a huge gap in this one). The H is of course apprehensive about getting into another relationship given how his baby mamma just left their marriage and kid like they were nothing. But this young swim instructor shows him that true love is out there.
I definitely recommend giving this one a try.

This was written at a high school level sophistication. It was too predictable. There wasn't any romance or mystery or allure. It was just cut and dried meet, like end story.

This was a sexy and hot insta-love story! Age gap love story. Single dad Grant and Lana were just amazing! Grant took a chance on love again with Lana. I read it in one setting! I loved it! 😆
Stars and Sparks Forever was the first book I’ve read by Kara Kendrick and I really enjoyed it.
I loved reading the single dad Grant and Lana, his son’s swimming instructor. Grant recently moved to Starlight Bay and when his first 4th of July rolls around, Lana takes it upon herself to show Grant the wonders of Starlight Bay.
What Grant doesn’t anticipate is developing feels for Lana.
