With her brothers grumpy best friendand her longtime nemesisas Beths flight instructor, her pilot lessons could be a plane disaster or their first-class ticket to forever.

Mayday. Mayday. Engine failure.

When flying with George Bunsen, the last thing Beth Lundberg wants is to be horny in the cockpit. 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. Shes even more shocked when her brothers best friend offers her discounted flight lessonspossibly out of guilt for almost killing them.

And despite Georges annoying habit of departing any room the moment Beth enters, she really wants to accept. No matter that its an egregiously expensive hobby, or that her waitressing wages go right toward her mothers medical bills, or that shes already in debt up to her eyebrows. Flying is Beths 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 pleasureplus, shes 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 isnt even off the ground?
