Being a hero can sometimes really blow.
Sadie Eagan has everything she’s always wanted: a stable relationship with her superpowered girlfriend, her dream café, great friends. She also has self-doubt about running her own business and wonders when she’ll stop faking it ’til she makes it. And what’s with the odd distance between her and Joan?
Joan Malone knew there would be growing pains now that she’s one of Vector City’s Superheroes. All the grunt work she has to do as Spark is much more stressful than her days in villainy (so many SuperWatch claims). Conflicting schedules means less time and snuggles with Sadie. Plus her twin brother’s acting weird, her old friends are hiding things, and she feels like she’s losing control.
A group of norms who want to restrict the use of superpowers tries to gain access to power-suppressing technology. They’re also getting more vocal in their disdain and demands. Sadie wants to support Joan and the Supers but struggles with how to go about it. Joan’s trying not to be framed or blamed for her past. It doesn’t help that a Hero from another city has gone rogue to save the world by any means necessary.
Sadie’s learning how to own her power while Joan can’t quite embrace change. Their future is hindered by the threat of external forces and, okay, how hard it is to open up about feelings. They’ll have to fight side by side for themselves and each other to keep their love blazing bright.
Kelly Farmer (she/her) has been writing romance novels since junior high. While the stories have changed, one theme remains the same: everyone deserves to have a happy ending. She is the bestselling author of queer contemporary romances with snarky humor and lots of heart.
When not writing, she enjoys being outside in nature, quoting from eighties movies, listening to all kinds of music, and petting every dog she comes in contact with. All of these show up in her books. Kelly lives in the Chicago area, where she swears every winter is her last one there.
