If y’all still haven’t met the Carrington family… you need to! So, although I reviewed this book a few months ago, I couldn’t pass up an opportunity to share it with all my reader friends once more (although I’m not limiting myself should another occasion arise, consider yourselves warned)! PLUS there’s a giveaway!
About the Book
Maryland, Present Day
Jacqueline Rogers can rebuild anything…except the shambles of her past. A restorer of vintage planes, she’s worked hard to earn the reputation of being one of the guys. The last thing she needs is a former Navy pilot fighting his own inner demons stepping in to defend her from dangers she thought she’d outrun long ago. Some battles must be fought alone.After a freak accident severs Lieutenant Michael “Finch” Carrington’s dreams, as well as two limbs, he’s left with nothing but a fragile faith and a duty-bound promise to watch out for his friend’s baby sister. A promise she insists is as unnecessary as it is unappreciated. But when she turns the tables and begins to weld together the broken parts of his life, it may be his heart that is in need of protection.
England, 1942
With the world at war yet again, Alice Galloway rejects her father’s traditional expectations and offers her piloting expertise to the Air Transport Auxiliary. She may be a woman in a man’s world, but when she overhears key intelligence, she must find the strength to transcend boundaries and her own fears. Or countless people may die.Sometimes the past reaches forward to bring hope to the future.

Flying is ok though none of my children have flown and they’re so looking forward to doing so. But a family of six, no matter where we fly to, costs quite a bit!!

I’ve only flown once – in a helicopter ride over Niagara Falls. First off, I’m terrified of heights but it was my idea to do it. Second, I was so busy taking photos that I have no memory of the actual flight itself. Hubby said that was good with all the twists, turns and lean overs the helicopter did. I told them when we landed that I’d have to do it again some time just to experience flight. 🙂

I like getting places quicker, but I always pray when I fly 🙂 I also love road trips.

I actually used to work for an airline. Also, a family member was a B-26 pilot in WWII, based in England. The novel sounds a very interesting mix of aviation and history!
