Let "Love on the Run" catch you by surprise in our November issue of Splickety Love! Sprint from flames into passion in our featured story, "Indomitable," by bestselling author Kristen Heitzmann. Dance with light, pursue a honeymoon, escape the earth’s atmosphere, but watch your step...because these stories might sweep you off your feet. And when passion strikes, you never know where it might take you.

My first love is, and always will be, historical romance. I sometimes think I was born in the wrong era. Maybe I’d fit in better if I walked with Jane Austen or wore lace at my throat and jewels in my hair. Our Ancient History contest issue is taking you back in time. We have stories about Pharaohs, soldiers, heroes, and a very special one by Genevieve Gavel, who wrote our winning story, Unkhamun Beauty. As spring pokes its head from the barren ground, I hope these ancient love stories warm your heart and fill your soul. Love in a Heartbeat

Our idea of a good time is a cup of licorice tea, a cozy blanket, and a well-worn classic novel. Jane Eyre, Pride and Prejudice, Gone with the Wind... books we read in high school and still pull out every year or so. Sometimes, though, we imagine different endings. Our February issue of Spark--formerly known as Splickety Love-- explores the what-ifs of classic romantic novels. Just in time for Valentine’s Day, we’re bringing you tried and true romance with a twist. Our featured author, Julie Lessman, reimagines Gone With the Wind. It’s a must-read if you prefer happy over ambivalent endings. And Mirror, Mirror by Splickety’s Sarah Grimm will grab you by the heart. We all know February is for lovers. This year, we’re making it about lovers who are ready to tell a different story--one that may just be an improvement over the original.

There’s just something about a man or woman in uniform. Maybe it’s the crisp lines and neat appearance. Or it could be we’re attracted to the power a uniform symbolizes. Whether you like soldiers in fatigues, medics saving the day, or a security guard taking the time to listen, the November issue of Splickety Love has it covered. Our staff feature by Splickety Love’s very own Sarah Fehrenbach will set your heart racing with the passion between a deputy and his prisoner. And feature author Hallee Bridgeman’s heartwarming story about a returning soldier is sure to give you goosebumps. Don’t be too upset about the unfair advantage those soldiers, officers, and badge-wearers have. Because these stories prove All’s Fair in Love...especially when love is wearing a uniform.

Surrounded by vibrant colors, exotic scents (not all of them good!), and interesting people, fall in love with each other! Sometimes all you need to spark romance is a great location. Whether on a tropical island or in an ancient European city, setting is king in this issue of Splickety Love. Our staff feature by blog editor Lindsay Brackett features two interns from opposite ends of the political spectrum connecting over a love of Lincoln and art. And don’t miss Diplomatic Immunity, by our bestselling featured author, Siri Mitchell, where you’ll find amour in the Louvre. We hope you’re swept away by these far-flung romances and that they make you dream of love in exotic locations.

You might be surprised to find romance flickering in the middle of mayhem. Chaos doesn’t always end a relationship. Sometimes it sparks love. Hearts collide in the unlikeliest circumstances in this month’s contest issue of Splickety Love. A doctor finds love in the psych ward. Coworkers are brought together by a car wreck. A wedding is blown off track by rain and a bitter feud. And a house full of artwork insists on a breakup. Also, don’t miss So We Meet Again, by award winning author Beth Vogt, who shows us that a bad day can turn out really, really good if we allow opportunity, and a little sarcasm, to pave the way to possibility.

What happens when life together turns into a life of crime? Our February issue will capture your attention and hold it hostage with stories of undercover lovers, villainous relationships, and couples running from the law… right into each other’s arms. Don’t miss “Tennessee Tango,” bestselling author Lisa Phillips’s suspenseful romance that will keep you on the edge of your seat. From a playful tale of a recipe heist to a bargain with death, we bet you’ll enjoy this criminally good edition of Splickety Love.

Sometimes love begins with a bang. It’s an explosion of strong feelings and immediate attraction. Other times it creeps up slowly, beginning with friendship and ending with a declaration... or a kiss. November’s Splickety Love overflows with “Can we be more?” romance where nothing can stand in the way of love. Not curses, black holes, mistaken identity, or even flying bullets. Feature author, award-winning novelist Deborah Raney, delivers a sweet romance certain to capture your heart and tickle your taste buds. And check out our staff feature, which is brimming with bittersweet introspection, written by Splickety’s creative director, Arpit Mehta. Whether you like your romance supernatural, futuristic, or contemporary, this month’s flash fiction isbound to stir up those warm and cozy feelings of falling in love with the person who knows you best.

Summer is steaming up our August issue of Splickety Love as outdoor concerts, county fairs, and road trips bring couples together. Set against the backdrop of a lively carnival, featured author Amy Clipston shares with us a sweet story of firsts. Our staff feature, by Bonita Jewel, captures the romantic rhythm of a forgotten melody. From a muddy pig-wrestling contest to a glittering ballroom, we enter the world of reconnecting lovers, friends who can’t resist the pull of music and moonlight, and strangers sparked by fireworks when they least expect it. We invite you to grab a glass of lemonade and try to stay cool as you spend a bit of time diving into these short, sweet, and sizzling summer love stories.

Sometimes Cupid misfires. Maybe he's in a hurry. Or maybe he's busy training up more chubby-cheeked, bow-wielding cherubs. Whatever the cause, sometimes those arrows fly fast and romance falls hard. This contest issue of Splickety Love has been pierced with more than a few of those heart-shaped arrows. A roving Don Quixote selling car insurance. A couple on a first date dangling precariously in a tree. And Prince Charming finagling out of the perfect fit. And don’t miss “The Deal,” as bestselling author Kristin Billerbeck explores the idea of a platypus birthing a frog. Not really, but Cupid definitely had fun with that one. In fact, for all these great stories, maybe Cupid knew exactly what he was doing. You decide.

Splickety Love is one year old! Thank you for being part of the celebration by enjoying our Valentine’s Day issue! “First Comes Love,” they say...and it does in these pages. In our featured story by Michelle Medlock Adams, a first date just might mean “Falling Hard.” Our staff feature, by Splickety’s Web Content Editor Bethany Jett, describes a “First Prom” from a metal chair...until the unexpected happens. From truth or dare to walking on air, from the first kiss to the last dance, Splickety Love welcomes you to embrace the “Firsts” of romance. Oh, and happy Valentine’s Day!

Giddy and carefree is great. But it doesn’t take watching The Bachelorette to know the heartbreak side of love. Splickety Love 1.3 reveals some achy-breaky-heart flash fiction that will have you reaching for a Kleenex and the only men a woman can trust – Ben & Jerry. But don’t take my word for it. Flip over to read an online romance’s tragic first meeting, in our featured story by best-selling author Dan Walsh. Eavesdrop on a Dear John letter gone right. And when a marriage unravels, can love whip up enough magic for healing? After all, what would a theme on heartbreak be without a little healing?

Splickety Love 1.2 presents an array of flash fiction themed on Springtime Love. Loree Lough weaves a story of a married woman seeking fresh romance . . . and discovering it in an unexpected place. Megan Besing, winner of Splickety Love’s micro-flash-fiction contest, tells a tale of sacrifice. From a young woman starting a new life, to a teenager at the brink of death; from a middle-aged man waiting for the woman of his dreams, to a student head over heels for the first time, none are beyond the reach of true love and its pervasive, persuasive powers. Experience a flash fiction plethora of springtime romance . . . Splickety style!

Get your romance fix with our debut issue of Splickety Love, your source for love-laced flash fiction. Our first issue features the winners of our My Book Therapy's (MBT) romance flash fiction as well as an article from MBT founder Susan May Warren on what goes into every great romance story--flash fiction or otherwise. Rachel Hauck headlines Splickety Love 1.1 with a historical fiction romance that ties into her Royal Wedding series, and heartwarming stories from six other authors round out the issue.
