When electrician Katie Larkin steps into the crumbling Lyric Theater, she expects bad wiring—not the quiet intensity of playwright Cal Whitmore. Sparks fly the moment their professional worlds collide: her precision against his passion, her guarded humor against his relentless curiosity. What begins as banter between circuits becomes something charged, dangerous, and impossible to ignore.

Katie has spent her life proving her worth in spaces that underestimate her—on job sites, in relationships, in her own reflection. Cal’s reputation for perfection hides his fear of failure, a fear that’s cost him both love and joy. Together, they rebuild the old theater’s power grid while wrestling with the invisible currents of pride, desire, and trust that run between them.

As laughter softens into longing, each must decide how much voltage the heart can handle before it shorts out. But when rumors, old wounds, and Cal’s past mistakes threaten to cut their connection, Katie faces a choice: retreat into the safety of solitude or step fully into the light she’s earned.

The Distance Between Sparks is a warm, witty, and deeply emotional BBW contemporary romance about confidence, craftsmanship, and connection. It’s a slow-burn love story built on mutual respect, second chances, and the truth that the right person doesn’t fix your broken circuits—they help you see how bright you already shine.

For readers who crave tension that hums beneath the surface, laughter threaded with ache, and a heroine whose strength is as real as her softness, this novel offers a current that lingers long after the last page.
