Book Blurb:
Lisbeth Douglas works as a pilot, mechanic, and flight instructor. As a Lady Flyer in the 1930's, she works in a male-dominated profession. Fearful of ridicule she keeps her dream of becoming a test pilot a secret. A cocky airplane salesman arrives in Saplingville and sets up shop at the airport. He steals her heart but will never take possession of her dreams.
Paul Williams is more comfortable designing airplanes than flying them. To please his father, he takes a job as an airplane salesman. His boss sends him to the deep-south where he meets a ravishing, daredevil of a woman. His heart takes a nosedive at the first sight of her. How can he give up his controlling ways and let her soar?
Excerpt:
He stared at the lake he flew over each time he
landed at the airfield, stopped the car, and turned off the
ignition. “Your uncle’s lake?”
“Yes, there’s a bench where we can sit and talk.”
He opened her door and put his arm around her
waist drawing her close. Twilight gave enough light for
him to see the bench close to the water. He waited for
her to sit and then he sat, held her hand and placed a
kiss on her cheek. He stared at the sky as the stars came
out one by one. “This is a magical place.”
She placed her hand on the back of his neck and
pulled his face close.
He gazed into her eyes. The jolt of his gut reaction
unnerved him. She’d been sealed in his heart since the
day he met her and if he kissed her the way his lips
wanted there would be no going back. Her mouth
enticed him, soft and willing. Instead of kissing her lips,
he placed a chaste kiss on the top of her head. She put
her arms around his neck, her body melted into his.
Every woman before her, every disappointment, every
happiness sabotaged by her embrace. He brushed kisses
on the velvet skin of her neck and obeyed his heart. He
fell into her snare and captured her mouth, devouring
the sweetness of her lips, her response as eager as his.
