With her brother's grumpy best friend - and her long-time nemesis - as Beth's flight instructor, her pilot lessons could be a plane disaster or their first-class ticket to forever. Mayday. Mayday. Engine failure. The last thing Beth Lundberg wants is to be horny in a cockpit. But when her first ride-along becomes a crash course in aviation after her perpetually stoic flight instructor is forced to execute an emergency landing, Beth is horrified to find herself with an adrenaline-fueled crush on George Bunsen. She's dumbstruck when George offers her discounted flight lessons - possibly out of guilt for almost killing them. And despite George's annoying habit of departing any room the moment Beth enters, she really wants to accept. No matter that it's an egregiously expensive hobby, or that her waitressing wages go right toward her mother's medical bills, or that she's already in debt to her eyebrows. Flying is Beth's dream, and she could use her private license to earn real money. The more time they spend navigating the sky, the more the turbulence between George and Beth dissipates. But Beth has seen the burning wreckage that comes from mixing business with pleasure - plus, she's been keeping a secret that, once revealed, will send all her relationships into a tailspin. Can she really take that risk when her pilot career isn't even off the ground?
With her brother's grumpy best friend--and her longtime nemesis--as Beth's flight instructor, her pilot lessons could be a plane disaster or their first-class ticket to forever. Mayday. Mayday.

But when her first ride-along dives toward disaster, the perpetually stoic George is forced to execute a skillful emergency landing, and Beth is horrified to find herself with an adrenaline-fueled crush on the pilot. She's even more shocked when her brother's best friend offers her discounted flight lessons--possibly out of guilt for almost killing them. And despite George's annoying habit of departing any room the moment Beth enters, she really wants to accept.

Flying is Beth's dream, and she could use her private license to earn real money. The more time they spend navigating the sky, the more the turbulence between George and Beth dissipates. But Beth has seen the burning wreckage that comes from mixing business with pleasure--plus, she's been keeping a secret that, once revealed, will send all her relationships into a tailspin. Can she really take a risk on romance when her pilot career isn't even off the ground?

But what start out as unlucky accidents, soon become clear actions of sabotage against the woman he's falling for. Someone in Pine Falls doesn't want Zoey sticking around...

But in his will, Josh assigned her an impossible partner to help complete the mission--Dominic Perry. Seriously, if Maddie weren't already at her brother's funeral, she would have killed him for this. Sure, Dom was Josh's life-long best friend. He's also the infuriating man who broke Maddie's heart back when she was na ve enough to give it to him. But since Dom insists on following the rules and Josh didn't leave much room for Maddie to argue the matter, they embark together on a series of farewell trips that span thousands of miles, exploring new places and revisiting their complicated history along the way. After a snowstorm leads to a shared bed, Maddie starts to wonder if her brother might be matchmaking from the grave. But when grief also reopens old wounds between them, Maddie will need more than Josh's ghostly guidance to trust Dom again.
