“Second Spark(le)” is part of a magnificent anthology called LIGHT MY FIRE, and all proceeds from its sale go to Wounded Warriors and the International Mental Health Association which works to prevent suicide.
You know that saying, “All that sparkles is not gold”? In my story, the lumps we all run into on a routine basis somehow turn out to be diamonds in the rough – LITERALLY!! Jen is out of luck and money when she ends up visiting a diamond park during a humiliating crawl back to her parents’ home after failing to launch. Might she possibly stumble upon both good fortune and true love?? You’ll have to read it to find out!
And here’s a special wonderful tidbit: the park is REAL! I’ve included the secret (okay, also known as publicly available) location in my notes, so if you ever get wanderlust, you’ll have a chance to find sparkles of your own. And if all that weren’t enough, the other stories in the anthology are also wonderful!
