Sparks Fly Upward (Makepeace Hedley Book 3)
Philippa, residing in London, finds that few of those she loves reciprocate her affection. Neither the love of her life, who has taken a new bride, nor even her widowed mother, Makepeace Burke, return her feelings. Consequently, Philippa decides to enter a marriage of convenience with a prudish, yet kind, man.
Across the Channel, in France, the Reign of Terror is causing the execution of thousands from the French nobility. Among those in danger is Philippa's friend, the Marquis de Condorcet. Philippa not only has the means to rescue him from the guillotine, but also the courage to do so.
As fate would have it, Philippa unexpectedly discovers love while facing the grim reality of death. While the political turmoil rages in France, Philippa's personal life takes an unexpected turn, as she finds herself in a position to save her friend and, in the process, uncover a love she had never anticipated.
The narrative explores the complexities of Philippa's relationships, both in her personal life and within the broader context of the French Revolution. As she navigates the challenges of her own circumstances, Philippa also finds herself thrust into the dangerous world of the Reign of Terror, where her actions could have far-reaching consequences.
The story weaves together themes of love, loyalty, and the human capacity for courage in the face of adversity. Philippa's journey serves as a poignant reflection on the power of human connection and the resilience of the human spirit, even in the darkest of times.
Throughout the narrative, the reader is drawn into Philippa's world, experiencing the highs and lows of her emotional journey, as well as the broader historical context that shapes her experiences. The skillful blending of personal narrative and historical events creates a rich and compelling story that engages the reader on multiple levels.
In the end, Philippa's story serves as a testament to the enduring strength of the human spirit and the transformative power of love, even in the face of overwhelming odds. The narrative leaves the reader with a sense of hope and the realization that, even in the darkest of times, the human capacity for love and courage can still shine through.
