~~Michele McMullen ~~
This is a short, sweet story about a fast moving relationship with only one obstacle to overcome. Mitch is very charismatic and charming, and is instantly attracted to Mandy who he spots waiting for her bus. Mandy is sweet and kind but not naïve. A really easy, enjoyable read
Sometimes I just need to read a short, swoon-worthy story. And that’s what An Instant Connection is to me. Mandy and Mitch are a sweet and hot couple, who go through a whirlwind courtship. I love their story.
““Ever heard of personal space?” “Yes. But you smell good. Really good.””
Being a teacher is Mandy’s dream job, but until she has saved enough money to start teacher college, she’s stuck. Stuck with a just okay job and a nasty manager. Going a date with a stranger is not her thing, but there’s something about Mitch she can’t resist. Mitch is known for making fast decisions, but his reaction to Mandy even surprises him. Is their insta spark just a spark, or is it real love?
“I wanted him. And I wanted him to kiss me. Senseless. He smirked—wide, knowing, and confident.”
I love Mandy and Mitch together. Yes, they are going faaaaaast, but their connection feels real. Both are grownup people who know what they want, and what they don’t want. Our lovely couple hits a rough spot, and I love that Mandy doesn’t forgive Mitch right away. And the epilogue? Just too sweet, I love it.
“I finally felt right again. He was right. We were right. And I was tired of denying it.”
Another wonderful book in Melanie Moreland’s Insta-Spark collection. I originally heard this book on the Read Me Romance podcast and loved every minute. I have since been able to read the ebook version and still love the connection between Mitch and Mandy. Plus the ebook version has bonus material that is well worth the read. These two are both strong characters that hold their ground when needed and then extra swoony and sexy with each other. Well done Melanie Moreland!
An Instant Connection is the third novella in the Insta-Spark series by Melanie Moreland. This one is a short, sexy, sweet little story with lovely characters and lots of chemistry.
Amanda (Mandy) Clifford works as a PA for a large architectural company. She doesn’t like her immediate supervisor, Michelle, at all. But, she needs this job. Mandy hopes to possibly earn enough to go back to school some day.
Mitchell (Mitch) Emerson is sort of a freelance architect. He gets called in to random jobs, signing on for whatever time is required of him. He’s great at his job and is in high demand.
“I think our meeting is going to prove to be a significant moment in my life.”
Mandy and Mitch are both at the right time and the right place for a random meeting. Mitch was drawn to her right away. Getting her to trust him enough to have dinner with a complete stranger was a bit of a challenge. But he had a plan, a three-step plan really, and whatever Mitch put his mind to accomplishing, he always succeeded.
An unexpected wrinkle arises that causes Mandy to lose her trust in Mitch. But again, he has a plan, he will win back her trust and affection. And he will not fail. I loved Mitch’s way of dealing with Michelle. I laughed out loud more than once. And I loved his persistence. He knew what he wanted, and he would do whatever it took to get it!
This was so sweet. These two definitely had chemistry by the bucket full. I am so surprised because it is a really short book, but, it covers so much. I didn’t feel like I was missing anything. It takes us through their meeting and following their relationship well into the future, leaving me with a full picture of their lives and the happily ever after I needed. This is one of those books that leaves you feeling all warm and fuzzy and just seems to make the day a little bit brighter.
“You’re mine. You understand that?”
“And you’re mine.”
“Yes, I’m yours.”
An Instant Connection was a good story with lots of steamy moments and hot chemistry . Mitch and Maddy have a chance meeting and like the title says an instant connection was formed . This is a fun hot short read that will give you just what you need after going through a book hangover really liked it can’t wait to read more by the author in the future .

When I first listened to this audio on the RMR podcast, I instantly fell in love!! I’m not usually an insta-love fan but MM has such a talent for these stories that every book in the Insta-Spark has been amazing.
Mitch and Mandy were basically made for each other. Every obstacle that comes their way, they could beat. From their chance meeting to their perfect union, I was swooning at every new thing.
The extended version of this story was so perfect!! I loved the epilogue so much. I wish this novella was longer. I could have read about Mitch and Mandy for days!!!!
This book was super short and super hot! I loved reading it.
Melanie never disappoints with her characters and stories.
I loved the fast pace of this because sometimes love does happen in an instant. Sometimes you just know the person you just met is going to be your spouse.
An Instant Connection by Melanie Moreland is a quick, sweet and steamy novella. I enjoyed it a lot! Mitch and Mandy are very loveable characters. Mandy is smart, kind hearted and loving. She doesn’t like her boss, but she still works very hard. She desperately wants to go to college. Mitch is smart, passionate, protective and caring. He’s one of the best at his job and he loves what he does.
An Instant Connection is the third book in the Insta-Spark series, but it can be read as a standalone. It fits perfectly in the Insta-Spark series. Mitch and Mandy connect from the start. They have a great chemistry and they belong together. Mitch would have done everything to get one date with Mandy and Mandy is happy after their date. Mitch and Mandy are a beautiful couple.
Short and sweet. Love this office romance novella.
Like the title, it was an instant connection. Fast and instant. The hero knew what he wanted and went for it. The heroine was a little stand-offish at the beginning, but he convinced her.
I love office romance, so I really loved this novella.
This is a quick read novella, with Mitch and Mandy who have an instant connection to each other; however, she made him work for her attention.
I look forward to reading more from this talented author, whose work I highly recommend for all.
3.5 stars
An Instant Connection is a enjoyable, easy to read, fast paced, sweet and steamy insta-love story. I liked this short story, it has everything I wanted in it. The characters were likeable, fun and so passionate together. It’s a good love story.
An Instant Connection is a really cute and fun Insta-Spark story with an awesome meet-cute! Mandy tries to resist Mitch’s advances, but he is persistent to a fault.
“My plan worked. You’re talking to me again. Now, I’ll move on to step 2, and yes, it’s a 3 step plan.
My lips quirked, but I shut off my phone. Forgiving him was one thing, letting him get back under my skin—and into my life—another.”
Melanie Moreland is my go-to author when I’m looking for that ‘swoon factor’! And even in this short story the swoon is the best!
-4.5 Stars!-
Favorite Quotes:
“I thought you were the prettiest woman I had ever seen. Then I saw you help that lady, which meant you were also kind. I found your whistle extremely sexy. And I love your legs. They really do it for me. Roll all that together, and I liked the package.” He sucked in a deep breath and paused. “So, Amanda, I was hoping maybe you liked my package and would have dinner with me.”
This isn’t the norm for me. But then again, I don’t think you’re the norm… He shook his head, pulling me closer. “I think you’re going to be the exception.” His eyes dropped to my mouth. “God knows I want to be that for you.”
My Review:
Written in my favorite dual POV, this was a quick, light, amusing, and deliciously satisfying read full of sizzle and a perfectly swoony BBF who was a master at three-step plans. Sign me up for more of this, much, much more of this. I adored this couple.
What a cute little story. The part where they meet is my favorite. As always, the characters and story are well written. My only complaint is that is was too short. 🙂
Melanie has yet to disappoint me with her story telling.
A great quick read. Very well written and a great story. Love the characters and how their relationship grows.

5 star Review An Instant Connection by Melanie Moreland
Despite the fact that this is an extremely quick novella, Melanie Moreland managed to give me everything I wanted in a book. An Instant Connection was fun, romantic, flirty and overall a thoroughly enjoyable read.
As I have come to expect from a Melanie Moreland book, An Instant Connection was extremely well written and had me absolutely captivated from the first to the last page.
I have to say that I could totally relate to Mitch and Molly, both individually and as a couple; I think they would be fun to have as friends.
Although a quick read, all the boxes were ticked and I just had a smile on my face the whole time I was reading.
One click this little gem, I don’t think you will be disappointed.
4.5 Stars for An Instant Connection a story that will certainly leave you feeling all warm and fuzzy inside . This may be a quick read but it still packs some mighty punches with adorable characters who you can easily relate and connect to.
Mitch and Mandy a couple I would love to have as friends in real life, he a man who knows what he wants and is not afraid to go for it and she is that girl that just goes with the flow who loves life.
A romance with the perfect mix of passion and love with a few twists and turns along the way all help make this an enjoyable read that I couldn’t put down. Once again this very talented author shows us how diverse she can be with this quick novella that ticked all my boxes.
